Day 62

Legs & back and the ab ripper kicked my butt tonight! I am soooo sore! My legs, knees, everything! Plus, I have an owie, a slight injury. I don't know what happened... but the pad of my left foot up by my big toe hurts SO BAD. It's this horribly nasty knotted muscle pain! Ouchhhh :[ Doing lunges, especially toe roll iso lunges, and anything on my tip toes hurt like crazy. It was not easy to push through and do every rep. It's such a random/weird injury and I don't know how I did it. I'm not kidding when I say it legitimately hurts, though! It sounds so lame but it's not good. My knees are also feeling pretty beat up tonight, too. Luckily tomorrow is kenpo then I get to have a day off! Yay for rest days!

I felt rather discouraged tonight during ab ripper. I was struggling through some of the moves and just thinking how I've been working so hard yet I haven't lost body fat (according to my new calculation). It just made me feel like "who cares, why bother anymore." I know that sounds so emo but it's discouraging to work as hard as I have been working and not see all the results I was hoping for. Granted, I have four more weeks of the p90x journey to go but still. Don't get me wrong, I am seeing results! I feel thinner and firmer... I feel more confident and I think I look better! Yet, it bothers me that my body fat measurement hasn't gone down. It just doesn't make sense to me. It's discouraging. I guess I need to suck it up and push it even harder. The only way to see results is to consistently push myself and work hard at each routine. I honestly did leave everything on the floor tonight. And I do mean everything. I was wiped, sore, dripping with sweat. I brought it! I need to keep that up, whether I feel like it or not, and I know I'm bound to get where I want to be eventually. Keep bringing it. The changes will happen. I need to keep telling myself that. Bring it, see results. Gotta start with bringing it.
