I've made it through Day 5 of Power90.  Earlier in the week, I decided to commit and invest in Shakeology and the Results and Recovery Formula.  They came yesterday, so today is my first experience using each, and I must say, the RRF is mighty tasty.  I'm not sure how much of a fan I am of Shakeology, but maybe it's because I just mixed it with water and should add ice and other fruits/vegetables.  I've also decided that I won't weight myself until the 30 day intervals - that way, I won't be discouraged if I don't see daily results.  I feel daily results.  At the beginning of the week, I couldn't complete the pushups in P90 Sculpt.  Now, with the supervision and encouragement of my roommate who counted them out for me, I was able to finish all of them - although most people would laugh at my "narrows". 

So, besides the workouts, I've been trying to track my caloric intake on a daily basis.  I have an iPhone app called "myfitnesspal" and I'm trying to stay between 1200 and 1500 calories/day. Here's my week in review:

Tuesday: 2189 calories --> apple pie and vanilla ice cream

Wednesday: 2055 calories --> meatloaf for dinner (family recipe)

Thursday:  1557 calories

Friday:  1773 calories --> movie popcorn

Saturday:  1371 calories

So, looking back, I can obviously tell what foods contributed to my overload on calories.  I feel like a lot of this is going to be battling bad habits and my cavalier attitude of eating.  Usually, I don't have a tendency to constantly snack or to eat junk food, but when there's an opportunity to "divulge" in a dessert with my husband, I never hesitate.  I'm going to have to start  resisting the urge to divulge several times a week...technically isn't a divulgence if I continue to do so.

I feel good - I'm ready to Press Play tomorrow!
