Results

So, P90X is a hard 90 days. But, is it effective? I'll answer with a resounding YES! It could've been more effective. I could've paid attention to my food choices. And I think the One on One DVDs gave me more challenging moves, but less intensity.

Anyhow, if you're actually reading to see results you want to see numbers. I lost only 8.4 lbs. That is my sad number. I always tell people that the scale isn't everything and I have to take my own advice. I was really hoping to lose about 20 lbs this round. And I lost like 8 lbs in the first week... so weight loss wasn't the highlight.

What was sweet was that I lost a total of 16.5 inches! This included 4.5 inches off my waist and 3.5 inches off each thigh. So, pants fit a lot better. To get to where I was when I found out I was pregnant with my daughter I have another 3.5 total inches to lose. Not bad. I can certainly do that with P90X2. I have the potential to lose a lot more! Excited to see where numbers end up.

I still can't do a pull up. But I went from doing 25 push ups on my knees to doing 20 regular push ups followed by 17 push ups on my knees. I also nearly doubled the number of bicep curls I can do. And the number of in and outs (an ab exercise) nearly doubled... I stopped on that one when my legs started hurting and that made the wall sit tough. But I still improved my wall sit time by 60%.

Should be taking pictures this weekend. I'll try to get them up before I start P90X2 on Monday.
