Days 69-72

I think one of the things I'm looking forward to once my 90 days of P90X are done is not having to do my blog anymore :)  It turns out that I bore myself...I don't think I really have a whole lot worth sharing, but I keep doing it on the off chance that someone is actually reading this and maybe they find some level of encouragement from whatever it is I have to say.

So here's a recap of the past few days:  Day 69 was Kenpo X...I've decided that the Friday/Saturday combo of Legs followed by Kenpo is kind of evil...my legs were super tired this week while doing Kenpo anyways, and then I got pretty sore on Sunday like always...speaking of Sunday, it was rest day!  We had Joyful's brother and his wife in town while they were passing through, so it was nice to see them.  Day 71 was yesterday, and it was Chest and Back...I tried pushing myself on it, and it must've worked because this morning my back muscles were a little sore.  Today being Day 72, it was Plyometrics.  I felt like I did pretty good...I wore my heart rate watch, and the highest I saw my heart rate go was 171, which is better than the first time I did it...I think my heart rate that time was in the low/mid 180s.

It seems to me that when doing something along the lines of P90X, you either learn something about yourself, or something you already knew is highlighted.  The thing that has been highlighted for me is my complete lack of will power as it relates to food.  I love me some junk food.  I'm jealous of these people that can seriously pass up a free doughnut, or someone who can have 1 cookie and call it good.  I can do neither.  I eat reasonably healthy otherwise, but if I'm at work and there's doughnuts, you can bet I'll have a couple...or if I make some cookies at home (which I shouldn't be doing anyways), I'll eat a bunch of dough and then have a couple cookies when they're done....stupid food...why does it have to taste so delicious?
