Weight loss this week was 0.8 lbs. (Pretty good considering the week).
Body fat loss this week was 0.0% (stayed exactly the same).
Could you eat anything you wanted as a kid, never gaining any weight, but the years went by and the good old metabolism just decided it was time to slow down? If so, I can relate! I'm 31 years old, 50 lbs heavier, and wondering where that high school body went. I've seen numerous TV infomercials about workout programs, but "Slim in 6" and "Brazilian Butt Lift" just didn't jump out at me. I mean, I'd like to have a nice butt, but that's not my biggest trouble area. "P90X" on the other hand, now that sounded like a man's workout! So...HERE WE GO!

DAYS 22-28
I was pretty bad on the diet and workouts this week. I scratched the diet on Monday because of memorial day. I scratched the diet on Friday because we were camping. Then because of all the weekday activities, I only did 1 workout this week.
I've decided to extend phase 1 to a 5th week to make up for it. I want to lose 3-5 more lbs before I move on.

WEEK 3 - END
Weight loss this week was only 1 lb, but body fat % dropped 0.7%. I must be gaining muscle. We'll find out at the end of week 4 when I do the 30 day measurements.
DAYS 19-21
I really focused on good form this week when doing the workouts. I'm able to do almost twice as many pushups as when I started, and finally did a couple of reverse grip pullups (not quite there yet with the normal grip). I slowed down especially on the back program and made sure it was working the correct muscles. It makes it harder, but it's nice to feel it in the right spots.
Last three days of the week went well with the diet. 1 more week until phase 2.
I've slipped into the routine of a shake in the morning, sandwich for lunch, and then rotation for dinner, depending on what my wife and kids eat and what sounds good.
Plus a clif bar and a yogurt for the snacks.
Tip of the day - We play softball every Tuesday night, so I don't do the P90X video that day, but I still use the recovery drink when I get home. It must speed up the metabolism during the night, because it helps as far as weight loss goes. "I highly recommend it!"
