Protein bars
So we are running low on our stache of protein bars we got on sale. We have been using the "Pure Protein" brand bars and thought we had a pretty good bar as it was lower in carbs, low fat and I thought low sugar. Last night after researching protein bars I learned all about alcohol sugar which sadly these bars have (5-9g…

Hi all, I thought I would start a thread in case anyone else wants to do P90X and is starting today are within a week of two of today. I'm following a thread over on the BB message boards but since I have so much success with the MFP app I wanted to start one here too. Took all my measurements and before pics yesterday as…

Started P90X 9/10/12. Day 1 Chest & Back + Ab ripper Done. Followed the P90X nutrition guide with a slight variation on my…

Ab ripper X - get all your reps!
Well for an inaugural post in the group I thought I'd share one of my favorite P90X tips that I'm sure I'm not the first to think of. I doubt anyone not already doing P90X or in amazing shape can do all 339 reps in the 16 mins that they do in ab ripper X. When I first started and needed a break I took it. But I didn't…

Day 30 progress report! (w/ pics)
So this morning I took my day 30 measurements and pics!! I'm happy with the results so far though I sure hope the body fat % loss accelerates. Keep in mind that thanks to MFP I was within 2 lbs of my goal weight when I started P90X so this is more about body sculpting than weight loss. I've completed all 30 workouts…

I've recorded over 1 million steps on my pedometer :)
Posted this to my status but thought I would share here as well. In June I recognized my lifestyle has gotten extremely sedentary. Having almost zero interest in starting a hard core workout program my first baby step was to purchase a pedometer and try and hit 10K steps a day. But first I recorded my average steps with my…

Woohoo! who else is joining the double digit club today?
What you may be wondering is the double digit club? It is hitting day 10 in P90X!!! Yeah so what if it is still early in the P90X 90 day program but sometimes making it through the first week or two is the difference between another failed restart and success!! Since my first fairly successful P90X effort I've done my fair…

simple tip if you are using Bands on resistance days
I meant to post this yesterday but forgot which isn't surprising since the tip is one I forgot from my last time doing P90X until yesterday lol. First time I did P90X I was following the form exactly for band use that I saw in the video's and since I was doing a LOT of wakeboarding at the time I had really strong biceps.…

MFP works! Target weight acheived!
Started MFP on 6/24 and today I hit my initial goal weight, losing 23 lbs! I'm amazed how easy it was. Sure I had to skip the occasional cookie or donut that I crave but during that time I ate most of my favorite food still, just in moderation. Still had the occasional pizza, piece of creative cakery (best cake in the…
