I am half way through week 2. Last week, week 1, I do not think my whole heart was in it, I wasn't excited for the longer workouts, and I just didn't have the drive or desire to do P90x. However, I committed to it and refused to quit. Plus I honestly, felt it working within the first few days.
During week 1, I continued to eat a WHOLE plant based diet! I didn't have any treats or cheats but I did up my calories. The p90x book says I should be eating between 1800 - 2000 calories a day. To me that is a TON. However, I am eating any where from 1500 - 1900 a day, it really just depends on the meals I had planned out. However, my calorie count is not what I am worrying about. My philosophy is if I am hungry then I will eat.
Like I said, I am continuing with a whole plant base diet. After doing the reset, I felt TOO good to go back to the old ways of eating. Plus this way is soooo much fun! Its always something different and my husband, LOVES the plant base diet because there is always something new to try. Which I need to be honest with you, before we did the Ultimate Rest, I got lazy and we pretty much had the same thing every night for dinner. Doing this diet, I really didn't think I would be able to continue with it or with P90x. I thought I would have to give up one or the other. But I don't! I feel great!!
The only thing I noticed this week and last week is that the first 3 days of the program each week, exhaust me to the point I struggle to stay awake during the day. So this week I am changing that. How? Well today, I started the Beachbody Performance Line (Pictured below). I have been getting tired through out the day, so I am hoping the performance line is the answer! I did energize before the workout, hydrate during the workout, and then chocolate recovery after! Tonight before bed I will take the vanilla recovery! I am excited to see how these help me with my performance with P90x!
