Getting Prepped

I just checked my tracking number and it looks like my P90X is slated to arrive today. I have to say that i'm seriously excited. I'm going to check out everything tonight when I get home from my trainers and get myself educated so that I can get everything in place to start the program. I will do my grocery shopping tomorrow, for sure.

Tonight i'm back to the trainers and intend on taking it lightly. They know about my back problems, so we are going to ease me back into my workout routine. I dont anticipate anything crazy happening by any means. Its just good to finally be getting back to the grind.

Last night Jon and I took my "before" pictures for P90X. I've decided not to post them until the 30/60/90 day period has passed because.

My Valentines Day

:) Slept in and awoke to boyfriend and Zoe (his little girl) coming into the bedroom with Jon carrying a bouquet of pink roses and Zoe carrying a pink tennis racquet! "Hi Meana" Zoe kept saying, hah. "Happy Valday!" :) She's a cutie. I got the sweetest card that i've ever been giving. Seriously, I was so close to tears. He wrote to me that he cannot wait for us to move in together and cannot wait to start our lives together and about how he was never going to let me go *tears* - boyfriend is not mushy or fushy at all so for him to write such romantic words floored me! In addition to my roses and pink tennis racquet he got me a new windshield wiper for my car because mine just broke! What a practical man :)

Excitement

Doh! I forgot that today was presidents day and there is no mail. I tracked my packages and we will have them delivered tomorrow. Eee! I simply cannot wait until I have them and can get started. Boyfriend is going to borrow my 30 Day Shred so he can workout until we get moved in :)

Just another Manic Monday

What a weekend. I was more then off plan. I do not even want to relive the bad decisions that I made all weekend. I had an amazing valentines day with the man I love and thats all that matters to me. I seriously love him more then words could even describe. *happy sigh*

So I checked the status of my order and it looks like I may get my P90X in the mail today or tomorrow! WOWZERS! I'm seriously very pumped about it arriving so that I can start as soon as possible! I want to get in bikini body shape before the pool opens at the apartment, for sure. I know Jon is just as excited. We dont move for 2 weeks, and we are plannign to start it after we are moved in - but I may have to get started as soon as possible. I'm really just too excited.

I also start back at the gym with my personal trainer tomorrow. I've been out of commission for almost 3 weeks since hurting my back. I'm finally feeling like I can get back to work. The pain is minimal, if any, and very managable. I'm just happy to be moving in the right direction (which means less weight on the scale!).

Friday Fun Day

Mmm I am having the most delicious breakfast! I took frozen strawberries and microwaved them until they turned into a syrupy consistency, then made oatmeal and poured the strawberries on top of the oatmeal and stirred. Omigosh, I am absolutely in love with this little concoction. What a great breakfast food!

So I ordered the P90X last night and i'm so anxious to receive it! I know that its going to take about a week, but I am just so excited about it. I'm ready to really challenge and change my body. I've read so many blogs by people who are doing P90X and it has changed their lives. I'm ready to be one of them!

I think another reason i'm so excited is because in 2 weeks we get the keys to our apartment. I'm beyond thrilled about it. Hopefully, I will have my P90X before the big move, and we can get started with our new lives together in our new apartment with our new work out plan! Jon has decided that he is going to do the program with me, and I'm so pumped about it. We will be sexy by swimsuit season!

In other news, I weighed in today at 152.8, which is a gain of 0.2 - I'm not very concerned about it and basically think of it as a maintain week. I'm ready to put forth a lot of effort and get moving for the next week!

P90X

I just placed my order for P90X! OMIGOSH! I AM SO EXCITED! I cannot wait for my box to come in the mail. I'm hoping ot have it in the next week or so. I also got a bunch of resistance bands and Jon is buying the chin up bar (which I will probably not be using as I'm a weakling with zero upper body strength!)

YAY YAY YAY!

What day is today?

Slept like a log last night, thank you Mr. Muscle Relaxer - I quite enjoy my little drug induced comas. The only thing that sucks is that my back is all in knots and I cannot take them at work or I will be sitting at my desk passed out or like a slug just oozing around and not getting anything done. So, unfortunately, I must just suffer through the day and hope for the best.

Did fantabulous last night at sticking to my plan. Rang in a few calories under 1200! Not too shabby if you ask me. I also preplanned todays menu last night before the boyfriend came over.

I am proud to report that it was someone in the offices birthday today, and I resisted having any cake - even though it was my FAV - yellow cake funfetti and white frosting. Boohoo! So yes, I resisted having any of that amazingness. Mostly since we are having a catered lunch today at work and I'm planning on having a salad and some of the chicken breast that they are getting for us. Yummy! Still healthy, and tastes way better then my energy shakes!

Last night I started packing for the big move at the end of the month. I cannot tell you how much I absolutely despise packing. I have never, in my entire life, moved so I do not know necessarily how to pack things to make it easier on me to UNpack everything. I also have acquired so much stuff that its absolutely ridiculous and boarding on obnoxcious. I really need to go through and just get rid of stuff. My goal is to pack at least 2 boxes each day in order to not have to be rushing at the last minute. *sigh* Cant we just be moved in all ready?
