Double Day

I've gotta say that I'm starting to get used to the lower carbohydrate diet thing, but I am thanking God that this portion of the nutrition plan is almost over! 1 more week and more carbs are introduced, woohoo!

That said, I do cheat from time to time (he he). The main thing that I cheat with is with wine (..not all the time though!), but I make sure to do something for myself the next day--a.k.a. beat myself over it, and do doubles of my workouts, ha. Yesterday I had some wine, so this morning, I did my Kenpo on empty stomach, then later I will be doing my back, legs, and abs. Alot, yeah. But if you want results, then you just gotta work hard at it!

The one thing I really do have to pat myself on the back for, is not eating bread at all for a while now (which I always used to do, I was a bread dipping olive oil queen!), and I've had absolutely no desserts in 2 weeks. I have had the occasional bowl of protein cereal that does have some carbs in it, but I'm learning to stick to the diet better, which is always half the battle. I know there is a method to the madness, and the end result will be what I want in myself.

Doubles

Once (maybe!) twice I week I will be doing doubles with the P90X system: aka (for me) doing cardio in the AM on an empty stomach, and then doing the strength CD later in the day. Cardio on an empty stomach sure does suck, but it definately torches calories like a mutha.

I've been pretty sore all week, so hopefully it will lessen as the program continues. I'll be done with my first week in a couple days!

On another note: My computer completely crapped out on me. So I'm sneaking posts on my husband's computer when he's not on it, which is rare. So you might see a decline in posting.

Tip of the week: DO YOUR DEVOTIONS. This is more for me, but if you're lagging in that area, just do it. Trust me, it will make your week much more joy filled. :)
