p90x week twoish/goal setting!

Hello bloggy friends! It's been a minute since I've blogged, but it's been rater intentional.

I am in my second week of p90x, but it's my first real week. If there's anything I've learned from doing this program before, it's that my body needs an "introduction to muscle confusion" week. I am so sore after a few workouts that I give my body time to heal before jumping into the 13 week program.

So today is day four of week one. Yoga! I have been carefully following the p90x diet plan (hello proteins, bye bye carbs for 30 days), and, though not terribly surprised, am so motivated by how it aids results. The complexity of the diet plan results in ridiculous muscle building the first 30 days followed by ripping out the fat and giving way to enormous endurance as the program continues. I've only dropped two pounds, but I've gained the same in muscle, and am already starting to get ripped. Eric is excited, too. We've chosen our celebrity "goal" bodies...mine being Pink's ala her Funhouse tour, and Eric's being Hannibal King. I know that it will take a few different programs and many months before I am where I want to be, but goodness: the journey is so exciting!!!

I am also a changed woman in a mental sense. Chalene Johnson's 30 day challenge to getting organized and reaching goals has literally changed my life, almost overnight. For information about the program, you can go here: I Love Chalene!!

I have set 10 goals for the next twelve months that a few weeks ago were simply hopes. They are now, each and every one, completely attainable, and I'm taking steps every day to do so. If you feel sluggish, or that you could be more focused, I cannot stress enough how much this has helped me.

That, and Shakeology!!!! I've gotta say man, this stuff is incredible. No coffee for 2 weeks, and not a single headache. and regularity? ha. Activia has nothing on my coconut chocolate shakeology!!! :)

I've chosen Jordan's curriculum for her first year of school. We are going to do Phonics, Math, US History, and Sign Language. She is excited and so am I! We're ordering it in March, and I don't imagine we'll be able to wait until the fall to get started!

And then there's the annual Race for Hope in DC! I am so excited that it's right around the corner again. A time to be with friends from so far away, running together for a cause close to all of us. My page for the race will be up son and I'll be certain to post it.

Well, this little fluttering housewife has a lot planned for the day. How about you? What's on tap for your weekend?
