Day 1

Day 1 begins P90X doing "core synergistics" which does not include crunches. It mixes a bunch of workouts at once to maximize movement and tone multiple body parts. I took it slow and had to stop before the people in the video did on a bunch (okay, almost every one) of the specific routines. I feel very sore in my arms, calves, and thighs. I did well with the weights, resistance tube, and lunges but not so much holding in my tummy. If my core doesn't feel sore like the rest of my body, that tells me I must tighten it more next workout session.
I did my workout first thing this morning, then had a protein shake and brunch (egg whites and leftovers from last night--veges and chicken bake) immediately after. Next, I took a shower and went on with my daily living. I did have some nonfat yogurt and a protein bar between lunch and dinner. For dinner I made myself a turkey bacon ranch sandwich (mmm mmm) and had grapes on the side. I'm very tempted to munch on some rice cakes or pudding still tonight. Hopefully I can hold off until tomorrow. But, now that I'm talking about food, I'm getting hungrier. I do have a glass of water sitting next to the laptop as I write this. I must stay hydrated. Water also is supposed to curb hunger...we'll see.
