So last semester I bought (copies of) P90X. It's a series of Beach Body (which I know nothing about) but I really like it. I'm a work out DVD junkie. They save time and I don't feel self conscious about going to the gym plus I get a really good wrk out. Like better than going to the gym. I like dvds like Jillian Michael's 20 Day Shred because it's low on choreography and high on cardio/strength. I love the P90X informercials so when I saw the set, I had to have it!
I started the lean routine last semester but only did a few weeks and then went home. Long story short, although I brought the dvds with me to Spain, they had been shelved until a few weeks ago. The only thing I don't like about this set is that you have to commit to 1-1.5 hrs, 6 days a week to see results. I haven't had time/ motivation so I didn't even start them. But since I'm here for 5 weeks longer than others in my program and only for 1 class, I realized I don't really have an excuse. Plus, I'm soooo fat! lol. I'm not that fat but I'm kind of...uncomfortable and I know when I get back to the states people will be side-eyeing to see if I lost/gained weight. Study abroad has been worse than the freshman 15! I don't think I've gained alot of weight but it's hard to not have the vacation mentality.
I don't know my weight and I'm not really worried about it. I 'm more concerned with how I look. I want to overhaul my wardrobe and to do that I'll need to try on alot of clothes and such. And I don't want to have to go up sizes. I would love to get back into the single digits as far as size, like an 8 sounds perfect to me right now. But I don't really know. I'm just going to work out and focus on the feeling of fitness (lol trademark that phrase!).
