Day 36: It’s gettin’ hot in here

6 04 2010

When my daughter and I started on this P90X journey we had no room in the house to really do the workouts so we cleared some space in the (non-climate controlled) garage. In March it was a bit cool but a few minutes into a workout and things tend to warm up – so no big issue. Now that we are into April and having a few days of record heat with a daytime high of 89 expected today we may need to regroup.  We initially started out working out together but after a week or so her best time and my best time to work out went in different directions so maybe we can somehow move this indoors.  April may be tolerable but a Southeast Summer in my garage is unhealthy.

Cheat alert. Semi annual dental checkup today and I ALWAYS hit Chic-Fil-A afterwords for a biscuit and small coke.  I am here to tell you that it was delicious.





Day 12 and 13: Still hangin’ Tough

13 03 2010

It is now 5:30 PM on Saturday and I just finished KenpoX and have tomorrow off. Not another workout due until Monday around 8:00 PM. Six days a week is plenty, since I WILL continue for at least another 77 days.

I made a grocery run earlier today and as I cruised through Super Walmart with my cart filled with pork loin, tons of fruit, V8 low sodium, tomatoes and all sorts of good healthy food it really struck me how much processed food I was eating. I felt just a little swell of pride. And as a byproduct of me doing most of the grocery shopping the whole family is changing their eating habits a little bit.

I came home and prior to working out put two salmon fillets in foil with a bit of salsa and some mushrooms. I’ll bake it up a little later.

Now I need a shower and maybe watch a little Tennis channel.

P.S. I have now taken to drinking all beverages out of “My” Pyrex measuring cup – Is that weird?
