    Brent, you are so funny!
    I am going to have to save my walk for this evening. Ran out of time in the afternoon. Oh well. If nothing else I have dinner planned already and it should keep my under my cals for the day.
    Mike, glad your fridge showed up. I couldn't imagine a whole week without one! WTG, getting in both your workouts today. Enjoy your rest day tomorrow!
    Welcome Forever! I remembered when I ordered P90. I was so anxious for it to get here already! I hope you enjoy it as much as I am. Oh and way to go on losing 26 lbs already! That's awesome!

    I did, thus why I don't do most of the P90 program, not yet at least. I have to lose some more weight first.
    I was referring to others. You can possibly overwork your back during your sweat or sculpt day, and doing abs it's not going to be a "recovery" day, does that make sense now? I was more saying if you're WHOLE body hurts, then do yoga or something, not if your arms hurt don't work out your legs.

    Mommasamfa, I wish you well on your recovery and your journey into better fitness.


    Traci, welcome! There's lots of support available here! Power 90 is a great choice.

    Today was my rest day, so I just took a walk outside. The weather was beautiful! I'm ready for Sculpt tomorrow!

    Hey guys!
    Really excited to find a group that's doing p90. I'm probably way behind you guys, but it's really motivating reading all your comments. I just started my 2nd week today. It's funny, last week I was having a hard time and then today I did it, no problem, feeling fabulous afterwards. I weighed at the beginning of this past week and then weighed today. After today I will be weighing every other week. So far I've lost 5 lbs! I'm so excited and enjoying this. My mom did this (and still does it today) a few years back and dropped almost 80lbs in the 90 days and went from a size 24-12. I'm not looking for those kind of results, but I'm looking for some and today just proved that Tony's right when he says "Don't go grab a cheeseburger" :)

    Thanks y'all
    Cannot wait to read more!
    Crystal :)

    Day 15, I did FBE. I got up a little earlier this morning and had a snack first. Not really sure it helped my energy or not. Still yawned a couple times.
    I hope everyone has a great Monday!

    Glad to see your trying something different by eating a snack first.
    Stay committed, your doing great. BB says getting past day 21 is your first goal, as it takes that many days to form a habit.
    I actually found the daily routine to get easier after that. (pushing play that is...not necessarily the workout :-) )

    Morning all,

    Day 8 for me, Sculpt 1-2 this morning... It was a tough morning. I got through the workout but I felt tired and kind of weak. Still feeling a little... slow... but the coffee is helping. Hope I'm not getting sick or something.

    Anyway, hope everyone has a great workout today, tomorrow is Sweat 1-2 and Ab Ripper - hope to have more energy!!!

    For some reason, my calves/shins didn't really care for jumping jacks today (as well as fast feet). No problems getting through the rest of it though, so that is good. I wasn't really in a workout mood, but I'm not going to let myself just skip it either.

    Last week I finally started getting through the Ab Ripper 100/100, and today I was definitely getting through it a bit easier than even last week.

    Oh man, I forgot about doing Ab Ripper this morning! Dang! I wish it was on FBE too! I want to do FBE again Wednesday, but I don't want to forget about AR100. Hhhmmm...
    Nigel, that's great that you can feel your progress with AR100. I never do real jumping jacks, but I don't mind fast feet.

    Well I managed to get my bum out of bed for day 1 today. When I saw what time it was on the clock, I just scowled at it, and defiantly went back to sleep for 20 minutes (it's amazing how my math skills improve tremendously when calculating sleep time). Although I got up later than I originally planned, at least I did it. Now I just have to stop myself from eating my exercise calories.

    It is good to get the start under your belt.
    I wan't out of bed as early as I'd hoped today, but I still got my morning workout/errands accomplished. Definitely was not as early as MamaReebs is up each day!

    I'm on my second day of P90. I can't believe how out of shape I am, the Cardio stuff nearly killed me. Had to push pause for a bit to catch my breath. Hopefully it will get easier. Going to try to fit the time in when I get home from work, I'm always rushing in the morning.

    Welcome! It will get easier. It's amazing how quickly your body can adjust to P90! I am only on Day 15, but I can already feel that I have improved in my ability to keep up and do all the exercises. Looking forward to hearing about your journey too!
    Nigel, I sure wish I didn't have to get up so early! But getting up early is a lot easier when I think about the alternative, which would be staying overweight forever. I want to have a body I can be proud of again and if that means waking up at 4:30, well then I will do it. And maybe one day when my kids are older I won't have to get up quite so early.

    Hi Wayne. It's great to have another person starting P90 who is around my age.
    I can relate to having to press pause and catch my breath. It does get better real quick.
    It's amazing how much better you will feel. I also have found success with the routine of working out as soon as I walk in the door every evening after work. Good luck and keep us up to date on how you make out.

    Great job Stephanie, but why don't you want to eat your exercise calories?

    Welcome to our other new friends! It DOES get easier, I promise just hang in there :)
