It's so easy to focus on the things I have yet to accomplish, instead of what I have accomplished. I get so frustrated with myself, especially when I think I could have done better. I am taking on THE ASYLUM and this is day 2. I feel like such a weakling. The women on the program are incredibly strong and fit. I can't even bust out one pull-up and they can do several. I realize there is a starting point and that I am a work in progress. I need to be patient and just go through the process. I have improved on my push-ups so that is encouraging. I could use work on my diet. The evenings are when it gets really tough. I think my stamina and all around fitness would improve if I ate a cleaner diet. Once again I am working on it. I am a far cry from when I first started. 

I must focus on the positive! That is my goal this week.

I have had Shakeology for over a month now... I should say 2 months, and I just finished my 60 days of Insanity. However...I have not kicked my sugar habit. In fact, I feel like it has intensified. I am always hungry, and I ALWAYS crave sugar. What is my problem, seriously! Cardiovascularly I feel soooo much better, and I can tell that Shakeology has done great things for my body. I feel like I've fallen off the wagon a little bit though. The holidays and treats are killing me right now. It is too much of a temptation, but I can't seem to bring myself to throw it out. WHY?! Why is that such an issue? I am trying to get pregnant so right now I probably need to tone down the workouts, but is it bad that I don't want to? I don't want to lose my momentum.

After Insanity, it felt like Core Synergistics from P90X was a piece of cake. I am basically doing a hybrid of the 2 combined. I really missed the weight training, but I need to kick up the intensity a bit for P90X. I don't need the breaks he throws in there, then again, maybe I do. I am SUPER intense, so I almost feel like if it doesn't exhaust me I'm not doing enough. I am a major fan of Insanity, and I definitely want to do another round in the future, but for now the mixture will do me some good.

I am feeling a bit discouraged with my diet. I don't want to lose all the gains I have made, but I can't seem to say NO, to the bad stuff. It seems like the more I eat the more I want, not a good sign. I'm sure I work out hard enough to balance myself, but I won't get the ultimate results. I know they say don't compare, but I can't help but look at Traci Morrow, or Dreya from P90X and be a little envious of their incredible abs. Will I ever get there...who knows, and not if I keep eating sugar like I do!

Just keep truckin' I guess.
