P90X Day 1

I started the P90X program yesterday.  I have to say that I was way more excited than I anticipated.  First of all, there are a few friends who are doing P90X also and we all started yesterday.  Craig started with us, too.  My first workout was Kenpo X.  It is a great workout.  From the perspective of a fitness instructor, it is a perfect workout.  So many fitness elements and any body can do this workout.  I am VERY PLEASED with P90X so far.

I also am following the meal plan for P90X.  As much as I hate having to spend so much time thinking about what I eat, I actually love it.  I need structure in my health and wellness and especially when it comes to food.  I just don't care enough about myself to make healthy meals so I sort of snack all day.  I don't necessarily pig out but I can't really say how much I eat because I don't keep up with what I am eating.

The meal plans in P90X are giving me the structure that I need.  I used the Meal Portion plan so I keep up with how many different categories of food to eat.  For instance, I need 7 proteins and the meal guide even gives suggestions for proteins for me to eat.  I eat sort of healthy already but being a little more rigid in my eating in only one day and I already feel better.

I guess I can say that despite feeling burdened with having to think about what to eat so much, I am happy to finally have some structure in my eating.

Today is Day 2: Stretch.  I had to set my calendar up so that my lightest P90X day coincides with my off day from teaching Zumba so that my body can recover.  I look forward to stretch. 

Looking forward to seeing results in 90 day!

Question from my soul...

"What if you already have everything that you need but you just don't know it?"

I think that is what is going on in my life....
