OK well got through half of yoga and it is so not fun for me... I think I will wait until I am a bit stronger than give it a go again.. istead of yoga I think I will do cardio or the stretch dvd.. Haven't done either yet so will see...
I totally agree with you Blcarter84, this workout program is fun and I think it will be easy to stick to... can't wait to see the results...
I did P90X Cardio X lastnight again I have to say if I skip most of the beginning and go straight into the workout after doing a 5 minute warm up I enjoy it a lot more.
I want to do it, but I don't feel like I'm ready for it yet! I'm a little scared of it. I've decided to start with Power 90 then go onto p90x when I finish it.
Remember you can modify and you dont have to do every move like they do it! Dont give up
A friend of mine and her husband both started this last year and could barely do any of it to start with and in 90 days she lost 50 lbs right before her wedding and her husband looks AMAZING!!
Here is their before and after pictures. We can do this if we really want it!!
Blcarter-WOW, I really needed to see that. Thank you for posting it. I have been really depressed this last week for actually gaining a pound since starting P90X. I didn't know if it was my uptake in protein or what but it really just made me crawl into a dark corner inside. I didn't do a workout last night as I had to write an essay since I have worked out all week and put off my homework. I have class tonight so I should have gotten up earlier today to do a workout.
I have a bridesmaid dress that I have already bought at my current size but I wanted to be able to take it in a good size or two before the wedding so I plan to lose about 20-30 more pounds and right now, its just not going through. I'm hoping to get it together! I'm falling apart!
If it makes you feel any better I have a 4 yr old and a 7 mo. old and I work 6 days a week
I just finished Kenpo X and am super sweaty!! Feels GREAT! tomorrow is rest or stretch day...but I kinda dont want a rest day haha. I'll put some pictures up from the last time I lost weight on here(not doing P90X)

Shelly don't give up!!! We all have our schedules to work around I am lucky right now I am at home on mat leave.. I have a 2 1/2 year old and a 4 month old... I workout at night... Some nights I would love to just sit and watch TV but I workout watching TV(Tony to be exact)... You can do it and we are here for support if you need it...
Blcarter WOW!!! You had done an amazing job... You will there again shortly if you keep it up... Those pictures of your friends is a good inspiration...
I was 145lbs when I got married got pregnant gainned 35 lbs lost it all then got pregnant again... gainned 15 lbs then lost the baby then got pregant again and gainned 40lbs.. Hoping P90X will be the solution to my weight loss... Keeping positive and keeping on pressing play everynight...
I worked all day today and then did Core when I got home....I can totally tell the difference from last week trying to do it already, even though I had a pretty good headache.
OK week one done!!!! 5 pounds lost.. Very excited love p90x even more!!! Starting week two today can't wait to see how much I can do compared to last week.... Have a good day!!!
I sadly haven't been keeping up with my P90X. I haven't done a video in about 3 days. I plan to today though. I did have a good workout yesterday though. I helped out Habitat for Humanity and volunteered some time to building a house, or I guess finishing it up. Seven hours straight! Lost about 3 pounds too. I didn't eat much which I kind of regret. They fed us but I only ate about a third of the food and the rest of the day was meager.
I did buy a yoga mat though! I'm verrrrry excited!! It's purple with flowers!

I would just keep modifying yoga rather than substituting. You might not be able to complete it all now but if you cut it out than it probably won't be any easier the next time. I would follow the plan even if you cant do everything now because you will improve every time. But if you cut it out you are missing a really great workout and probably won't get the same results so hang in there! I swear it gets easier! Lol
I have a quick question for all you ladies doing it. I've been looking into it for a while but wonder if it is something i could do in my apartment? I live on the third floor and it is carpeted. Ive done 30 day shred and a few other videos with out any complaints but not exactly sure how much high intensity jumping is involved. Any opinions would be GREATLY appreciated. I would love to participate!
Well, I just wanted to say hi... I'm not doing P90X but doing Power 90...since my body just wasn't where it used to be when I worked out a lot. Today will be my day 6 and I'm so happy that I have been able to stick to it... because after I fell out of the wagon, I had hard time sticking with any workout..
Oh and BLcarter.. so nice to see you on here again!
