I've acquired the p90x full workout guide, videos, etc and really want to lose this extra weight. I've never really been able to follow-through with a long-term workout program, so I'm not guaranteeing I'll actually finish this to the end, but hopefully writing about it will give me a decent idea. I'll be starting it on Sunday (10/30/11) because that's when my week starts. It'll be easier to keep track that way. This post is to basically outline what I'll be doing.
I'm going to do (or try anyway) the p90x Lean workout program while maintaining my current eating habits. This is an intense workout apparently (I've skimmed the videos as well and it looks pretty hard), but I'm going to try my best. I don't normally workout, so I figure I'm going to be dead (figuratively) after a day or two lol. But yeah, I'm going to take a couple "before" pictures tomorrow and upload them so that way when I reach the 1, 2, and 3 month marks, I'll be able to see if I made progress. I'm pretty excited about this actually. And I'm never excited about exercising! Haha.
Oh yeah, might as well post my stats.
I'm 5'7 3/4" (so let's say 5'8").
21 years old and female.
I currently weigh 163 lbs.
My highest recorded weight was 256 lbs at my last doctor weigh-in while pregnant with my daughter.
And I hope to be around 120-130 by the end of the 90 days (however I'd be happy with less, too).
What I'd like to gain out of this is higher self esteem and confidence, a body I can love and that my boyfriend can love (though he says he does already, not that I don't believe him; I just think we'd both be happier with my ideal body), and more physical strength and overall healthfulness.
Happy Saturday. I'll see you tomorrow. :)
