Week 2:
Weigh-In:
my initial weight: 160 lbs
goal: 125 lbs/lose 35 lb
weight last week: 154.8 lbs
weight today: 156 lbs
Total loss: -1.2 lbs
left to goal: 31 lbs
Well, that's depressing....
I know it's all about muscle weighing more than fat.
I'm going to need to take measurements, because those are what really matter....I know I've gotten "smaller" {drew even says so.} On Sunday I wore a dress that I wore on mother's day and had wore 2/3 weeks ago to make it nursing friendly {post to come soon} and it was bigger than before.
but still....I want those numbers down.
I guess it didn't help that I made some "brownies" out of a cake mix.
or that we had taco bell last night {just tacos, nothing fancy....we're poor like that. lol}
I didn't want to "diet" since i'm breast feeding and don't want to hurt my supply at all, but seems like I really need to keep track of my calorie count. there are a bunch of hidden calories in everything....and I've learned that as long as i'm hydrated, my supply should be fine, that making milk takes priority over me, so baby won't suffer.
don't worry i can't/won't be starving myself! that's just dumb.
Past week's workouts:
Wednesday: P90X Shoulders, Arms & ABS
Thursday: P90X yoga
Friday: P90X Legs, Back, & Abs. 60 min work-out at BUYi {lots of cardio/stairs}
Saturday: KenpoX
Sunday: REST day
Monday: P90X day 1 Chest & Back 53 min, AB ripperX 16 min, Circuit training at BYU 60 min {ball squats, dead lifts, rowing}
Tuesday: P90X Plyometrics 59 min
How do I feel?
SORE, still. something gets less sore and another part gets more sore. it is a vicious cycle.
but that's good, right?? I can tell the difference between my workouts last week and this week, I am getting better, stronger....i'm still not super good at it, but I do it. last week was hard getting through each rep. this week, it's still hard, but not as hard. good! success!
Next Week:
I start Brazillian Butt lift! Well, hopefully....some of the DVDs were left at my mom's house and I'm waiting on them to arrive. I plan on doing a modified version or the program in addition to P90X and only on Tues., Wed., & Thurs. since I'm already doing 2 workouts on the other days. We will see ;)
It's Memorial Day weekend, so the goal is to not over-indulge....stay healthy and portion control! :)

How was your week?
What do you do to combat soreness??
Weight will fluctuate, don't let it get you down beautiful! The weight will come off, in time. Promise.
ReplyDeleteTo combat soreness, there is a period where you just have to work through it. You're demanding a lot of your body during those workouts, so it makes sense that you'll be sore. Just power through the soreness and revel in all the good it's doing for you!
Also, constantly staying hydrated will prevent the lactic acid from building up in your muscles (which acid is the biggest culprit of muscle pain).
Good luck girl! You're doing awesome!
