Day 32....

I certainly was not
today, and ended up in a crying, hyperventilating, sobbing mess during my workout because I was an idiot and looked early at the scale. The rational, mature part of me knows that I should only look at in on weigh-in days (Saturday morning) and no other time. The irrational part of me was getting angry at myself, as I was up half a pound from Saturday. I have been working out well, eating properly, and I'm probably gaining muscle. I was finally able to pull myself together and finish my workout, gritting my teeth through the 200 crunch ab routine. Tomorrow will be a better day.

What I had to eat:

Breakfast: Protein Shake (5 pts)
Snack: Froot Loop Bar (2 pts)
Lunch: PC Blue Menu Canneloni (4 pts)
Dinner: Tuna Sub (8 pts)

Total: 19 points

Day 31.... first day of the second month of Power 90... happily chugging along..

I had a moment or two of upset tummy during my workout, but I pushed myself through it. It was raining in the morning as I was working out, and I was really stuffed up, and that was kind of distracting. I hope to be able to do decline pushups next week.. I have been able to progress to "man" pushups though.. some small victories!! :)

What I had to eat :

Breakfast: Protein Shake (5 pts)
Lunch: Turkey Sub (5 pts), chili (4 pts)
Dinner: Tuna Sandwich (7 pts)

Total: 21 pts.

Day 30.. One third of the way done!!! YAY!!!!!!

I've made it to the 1/3 mark, and haven't given up yet. I'm very proud of myself for not throwing in the towel, cause let's face it, there have been mornings that I've wanted to crawl back into bed, and nights that I've wanted to scarf down an entire bag of potato chips, but I haven't done either.


My cardio workout was awesome this am, I worked up such a sweat!!! As well, I had to pause it during the TH 200 Ab routine. I couldn't keep up with the kids. Hopefully I can soon!

What I had to eat:

Breakfast: Protein Shake (5 pts)

Lunch : Turkey Sub (5 pts), granola bar (3 pts)

Dinner: Ultimate Chicken Grill from Wendy's(7 pts)

Total : 20 pts

Day 29... second day of Power 90 3-4.

Wow. I forgot how challenging Power 90 3-4 was. I completely felt like I got my ass kicked during the cardio workout, and I felt super stretched out after this morning's Sculpt workout. I had to pause it during the workout this morning, as I had a moment where I thought I was going to blow chunks all over the TV. Not a pretty picture. I was able to restart the workout, and finished it off in time to not have to rush crazily to get out the door for work.


What I ate today:

Breakfast: Protein Shake (5 pts)
Lunch: Gooey cheese lasagna (11 pts)
Dinner: Jugo Juice (between 4 and 6 pts)
Total: 20-22

Day 28....


We're moving up to Power 90 3-4 today. I'm a little appreshensive about this, but it was an inevitable switch. I guess that my main worry is that I will get bored of the routine. As well, I can't he;p but compare this edition of doing Power 90 to past rounds. I'm almost 1/3 done and I thikn that I'm already starting to see some difference in a definition perspective.

What I had to eat:

Breakfast: Bagel and cream cheese (7 pts)
Lunch: Turkey Sub (5 pts)
Snack: None
Dinner: Chicken Stirfy with veggies (6 pts)

Points Total: 18 (under)
