Insanity Days 7-12!

Ahh, I've neglected the blog!  It's been busy.  Here's what went down.

Monday should have been Day 8, but we were just exhausted and decided to change our schedule around a little bit to have Monday as our day off (which would be more in line with where the program thinks you should have a day off, anyways).  So we sort of had a skip day.

Days 9-11.  We're at the point where we are re-doing some videos now, but it doesn't seem boring or anything like some workout videos.  We haven't started the ab parts yet, so I think they videos will get a little longer next week when we start incorporating that.  For now, it's so nice that the videos are only about 45 min long.

The actual hard core exercise part is even less because you always start with a couple of minutes warm up, stretch and then end with a stretch, so that's about 7-8 minutes.

I am definitely finding it a little easier to do some of the moves, but the video on a whole is still a challenge.  Last night was pure cardio and I got through the whole video without stopping, but still couldn't do some of the moves.  It definitely didn't feel like it was kicking my butt as much as last time though.

I weighed myself on Monday (I figured this will be my weigh-in day) and was at 134.6, so that's 2 pounds since I've started.  I've been eating better, although, not sticking strictly to the Nutrition guide that comes with the program.  I have, though, been really trying to eat small things 3-5 times a day.  I find that if I stick it right in front of my at my office, I'll eat it, so every day, I bring a couple pieces of fruit, some Barbara bars, a protein shake and some nuts and I usually eat it if it's there.

Last night (Thursday) we had to skip, so I'm feeling bad about this week.  It's a hard program to do if you're already tired.  You know you are going to have to work hard and there's no half-assing it, so when I'm tired it's really hard to get going.

Next week will be better!
