Day Fifty Three & October 2010, Thursday

I woke up today thinking "I do NOT want to get up, I don't want to do the workout, I'm tired of it already!" Then I realized "WAIT, II'S RECOVERY THURSDAY, THANK YOU JESUS!" It came at the perfect time for me, I needed the "cool down". So I'm down to almost my last week...1 more to go and I will be an insanity graduate! I'll get to send in for my t-shirt that reads "I earned it"! Yeah boyeeee! I HAVE earned it! I'm thinner, I'm a lil leaner, my energy levels r sky rocketing, I'm a motivator, my clothes fit different and I'm a much happier person! With that being said I stepped on the scale and was very disappointed...I know that muscle weighs more than fat, but MAN...I was expecting more than what I saw...I swear my floors r uneven! I need to try again, (Hey let me have this OK?)...Look, if you are like me and you see the same thing don't get discouraged. That scales means nothing compared to what I am seeing with my own eyes, it means nothing compared to how I feel daily, how strong I've become in body and mind (must be all the extra oxygen I'm taking in). So ignore that man made machine! Keep pushing through and digging deeper.

At the end of this I am going to do a shakeology cleanse! Can't wait that should help me shed off those extra few pesky pounds!

Have a blessed day my people!!!

Day Forty Six October 1st 2010, Friday

Max Cardio Conditioning! Nuff said! I'm dripping wet sitting here (On a towel, Louise) drinking my favorite meal replacement feeling so good and accomplished! I'm encouraged every time I look in the mirror! My stomach is so much more flatter! I was worried about that because I had a c-section yrs ago and I swore my stomach would never be the same. But to the contrary!! I'm so much more closer to my goal!!!

I will be out of town starting today till tomorrow and so my blog will be late because I will work out when I get back. That's going to be different for me!

I pray that everyone is having a wonderful morning so far! Please don't give up on what you're doing to stay healthy, it's so easy to lounge around, eating ice cream or pizza, so easy...the challenge is forming the body YOU want and feeling accomplished every time u get a compliment because U can say Thank you and really know that the compliment was for YOU because YOU did it, YOU got up and sculpted the body they see before them, what a feeling!!!

Be blessed

Day Forty Five September 30th 2010, Thursday

MAX RECOVERY! WHEW! Much needed after how I felt yesterday! I'm not as sore today after this recovery workout so I know that means I did it right. I'm hungry, I'm eager to get up and drink my shakeology! Listen before I go I wanted to let you know that everyone's body is different. If you're not seeing results right away DO NOT give up, it might take you longer than someone else whom you know is doing the same program. That's just the way it is, your story will be different! Keep digging deeper!!!

Day Forty Four September 29th 2010, Wednesday

All that comes out of me right now is

"ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" "pant pant pant" "wheeeeeeeeeeeeewwww" "ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh" "wooooooooooooooooooooooooowy"...I just have no words. Everyday is different for me, today is just one of those days where I am BEAT! I went to bed around 10, something woke me up at 12 and my alarm went off at 7, might be the interruption at 12 that did me in, I'm normally a deep sleeper, blah!

2 weeks left WOW! Just wow! I made a commitment and stuck with it yay me! My lil announcement is that I can do push ups now with no prob...granted they r still the girly ones. lol. BUT I can do em...Tomorrow I will attempt regular ones since I'm already acing the girly ones. Need to push deeper and challenge myself, that's the point, can't stay stagnant or else I'm defeating the purpose here right?!

OK my lovelies! Have a great rest of the week and please don't give up! We need to battle this horrible epidemic going on in our world today called OBESITY! You're taking the steps now not just for 2 or 3 months but for life, this is not a diet or exercise program it's a lifestyle, remember that and it will make more sense to you to continue.

Day Forty Three September 28th 2010, Tuesday

I can't believe it's only Tuesday, I feel like it's close to Friday already...:-(, but on a good note recovery day is only 2 days away now YAY! Today was the fun day; Max Interval Circuit. Fun because Tanya wasn't there and fun cause I love the end when everyone is silent and laid out, even Shaun T, half way through the video he stops counting and everything! LOL! I feel so strong these days! I love the feeling I have and I love the confidence boost I get when I look in the mirror each day! Not to mention I never get tired of hearing "WOW Latina, you are looking great!" I can't wait to weigh in already, I know I am lighter I feel it, I see it!

I'm drained...I'm going to take a long shower and then maybe even a hot bath! My muscles need it!

DIG, MY PEOPLE, DIG!!!! I have 2 weeks left!!!! WEPA! (The Puerto Rican "WOO HOO")

Day Forty Two September 27th 2010, Monday

Max Cardio Conditioning I HATE IT! U get NO break, there is no "OK 30 second water break" it's one after another after another!! That's not to say u can't take ur own break, u can, as many times as you need but MAN, u can't help to feel a lil weak since everyone else is pushing through and ur panting on the floor trying to catch ur breath! (Not me, but I'm just sayin') lol.

I can hardly believe I only have 2 more weeks to go!!!! WOW! I'm so proud of myself for seeing this through! I only made myself better and I don't want to stop after! I will be taking on P90X after this! 90 days of even more body conditioning!!! After that I def wanna try hip hop abs only cause after 90 days of Tony Horton I will really be missing Shaun T!

I can't stop sweating, I'm so hot so I'm off to drink...U guessed it...SHAKEOLOGY!!!!!!!!!! I workout so hard and get a great reward after of chocolaty goodness!

Have a great day people!!! DIG DEEPER inside to pull out the strength you need to push through each day that u press play!!!

Day Forty one September 25th 2010, Saturday

So I had an emotional response to todays workout Max Interval Plyo, It's harder, I wont lie, and I know this is where I'm going to see drastic change and that coupled with the fact that I'm pushing harder has me on the verge of crying, ugh I'm turning into such a girl, remind me to thank Shaun T when I meet him. I do plan to meet him! He has changed my life.

Busy today so this is going to be brief. I just wanted you to know that today I tried to think of an excuse to get out of doing my workout, and I'm glad I didn't. I get my lazy days, it's Saturday, I stayed up late last night I just wanted to lounge till it was time to go today, but this is when it get's crucial to push and dig deeper! I did it, and I am so happy, and feel so accomplished. Rest day tomorrow, I WELCOME IT!

Have an awesome day!!!!
