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.

Week 1-Complete!
Well, almost. Tomorrow I have stretchX. And I think my body reeeeaally needs it after this past week!
I went back to the scale in my bathroom. I couldn't resist. I weighed myself. 2 lbs lost!! Ok, I know, it may be water weight (or sweat weight I should say) but for this momma it gives me affirmation that I am working hard, and eating the diet as it says I should. "It" being P90X btw, in case you didn't know :).
I'm going to say this alot, but I LOVE this program. It's not for pansies, Tony Horton is a freak of nature. And so are some of the ones you see on the videos. This program fits in with my needs, being a mother (1 being 6, and the other 7 months old), and knowing that I don't have to get dressed, the baby dressed, diaper bag packed, and driving to the gym. That, my friend, is a pain in the ass! Now, I can workout in whatever covers my jiggly parts (boobs) and anything that covers the rest of me. No combing hair. No makeup. Just sweat. And I love it!All while the baby (usually!) is taking her morning nap. It's a beautiful thing.
EDIT: I just did KENPO for the first time today and LOVED it! So much fun and I sweated a TON so I know I burned mega calories! YAY.
