So, after having Cooper, I was determined to get back into evey single pair of my jeans and in order to do so I enlisted a little bit of help... P90X. For those of you who don't know what that is, it's this little 12 disc, 90 day video program that KICKED MY ASS! I'm talking 90 straight days, no breaks, of pure hard sweat. But I will say this, it got rid of every pound of baby fat, plus 5 more pounds. Ashley went from 235 (yes, he gained weight with me during my pregnany... isn't that sweet) to 202. And as if that wasn't enough, Ashley and I have decided that we're crazy enough to try INSANITY.
It's been given that name for a very specific reason... it is seriously insane. I did day 1 yesterday of the 60 day video set and P90X doesn't even hold a candle to it. This workout program may be the end of me. I consider myself in somewhat good shape. By no means do I run triathlons, but I completed P90X and I'd like to think that I have quite a bit of endurance.... WRONG! This video put me in my place last night and as I collapsed on the floor after it was over, I realized I loved the pain :-)
So I'll keep you posted on my progress. I have to admit, by the end of P90X, my weight had remained steady for several weeks in a row. I felt like I was stuck on pause, hence the reason for the change. INSANITY is all cardio and core work, so hopefully this will be the solution I was looking for.
Try it out if you're looking to lose those last few pounds... I'm a true advocate of these videos.
