How much fitness can you lose in a month???
There's a chance I might have to take the month of February off - no running, biking, swimming, P90X. Nada! The problem is that I have some events coming up, but I don't know if there will be a better time to take care of an issue I've been needing to deal with for awhile now.
------------------------------------------------------
Tuesday, 1/13 - Treadmill Run, 30 minutes easy
Nothing to report here...30 boring minutes on the treadmill at an easy pace.
Monday, 1/12 - P90X, Chest and Back, 50 minutes -and- P90X, Ab Ripper X, 16 minutes
This is the 1st workout in the P90X series and it's a doozy! Regular push-ups, military push-ups, diamond push-ups, dive bomber push ups, wide-stance push-ups....and that doesn't even touch on the pull ups! Ouch!
The inlaws are in town helping out with the baby, since my regular sitter (a/k/a my Mom) is unavailable. It's going to be really hard to eat healthy while they're here! Today my Mother-in-Law and the kiddo made chocolate chip cookies. Tomorrow, she's making homemade enchiladas and tortillas!
Be strong Christy, be strong!!! :-)

wow....must be the 40 deg office temperature to make me hit enter twice
LOL, thanks Bill! That's not too terribly much of a loss, which makes me feel much better!
