Weight Loss Update November 2014

I am so proud of myself to officially be off blood pressure medicines!!! I was diagnosis with hypertension at 19 years old.  When I was pregnant I had pregnancy hypertension and gestational diabetes.  6 months postpartum I decided to make a serious lifestyle change to eat clean and exercise.  I wanted to stop taking medicine and never get diabetes again!!! I am so glad I made this change.  I lost 50 pounds and my doctor told me I can stop taking my medicine!!! It is possible to be happy and healthy.  Food is not the enemy it is your friend and can help you not against you!!! November 23 completed 21 day fix round 3 Weight 132 Chest 33 Arm  11.5 left /11.5 right Waist 29.5 Hips 32.5 Legs 18 left 18 right  Wrist: 6 Forearm: 9 This is the lowest weight I have ever gone!!!  I'm so proud of this accomplishment however I am not use to this.  I feel like I am not eating enough, feeling more weak and stressed out.  Could be the new job too...

P90x3 Results

I tried p90x 3 looking for more weight training after doing 21 day fix. I lost so much weight too fast.  I notice my skin was sagging which did not look nice.  I w anted to look lean. p90x3 workouts are only 30 minutes, 6 days a week for 90 days. Tony Horton is the trainer behind this program.  He includes a variety of intense routi nes for resistance, cross- training, c ardio, core, flexibility and balance. I have never tried p90x, but I have heard great things about the program, however I did not want to s pend an hour o f my day working out .  I am a busy mom, I don't have time for that.  Tony Horton is fun to listen to be cause he is a comedian and makes working out interesting.  As far as eating, his nutritional guide involves intuitive eating, so its not structured like the 21 day fix.  I enjoyed the variety of this program because I did not feel bored.  Before p90x3 August 5 Weight 145 Chest 35 Arm  12.5 left /12.75 right Waist 30 Hips 35 Legs 19 left 19 righ
