So Ive not been on this since the start of May I think. Just want to say sorry about that especially to people who continued to view this daily. I don't really know what happened, I just got lazy again which sucked. Since I stopped working out Ive felt horrid, Ive sat around on my days off and not done much except play video games and eat junk food.
I did give myself a bit of an excuse, I fractured my left foot the middle part and it was giving me a lot of problem both at work because of being on my feet constantly and in the house were I needed to take the pressure off. I'm going to the doctors sometime this week to see if its ok and if anything else needs to get done, fingers crossed everything is ok.
For the past week I have been slowly cutting my calorie intake and upping my green tea and healthy foods which has made me feel a whole lot better. I also got a scale so I can weight myself, and I did on Monday and since September last year (last time I weighted myself) I haven't put any weight on but I also haven't lost any. So I don't really know if that result is good or not.
I'm hoping to start working out soon, hopefully sometime this week but I will need to be something light and doesn't put much pressure on my foot, maybe the static bike Ive got.
Oh and because I still don't feel like I'm getting a handle on my nutrition I'm thinking in joining weight watchers will my mother. Have any of you been to weight watchers? I hear good things about it but not too sure.

Work Dragging Me Down
Sorry Guys
Work has been sucking the life out of me the past few weeks, between 10 hour shifts and last minute changes Ive been run off my feet. Not had a chance to do things, like working out, going shopping and even seeing some of my family. On my breaks I have been reading some of your blogs, but my stupid phone wont let me sign in to comment or anthing. Hopefully next week things will calm down and I'll get back to normal.
For the most part I have been following my diet, except one day I did a 12 hour shift and I needed sugar to get me through.

New Month New Start
So its now May, boy does time fly. So Ive still got this rubbish cold/chest infection. Its mostly just a really chesty cough now but its still annoying. I'm getting fed up of being in bed and not doing anything, that's me also missed 3 days wages.
So since I feel a little bit better I'm going to restart my diet/exercise tomorrow. I'm thinking today as day 0 again :( because Ive been unwell since Monday Ive been eating chicken noodle soup a lot as it seems to be the only thing I can handle, that and nutella lol.
I'm going to do things differently this time round, only taking photos on day 0, 30, 60 and 90. I'm also listening to the audio book just now tat helped me last time quit smoking and I'm going to listen to it once a week, probably a Sunday. Also for Lent I gave up fizzy juice and sugar in my tea and coffee I'm just going to carry that on and only drink water, I'm also going to drink more water.
No more sweets and chocolate, and If I do want anything like that I can only have it once a week. Also no more crisps, processed foods are going to be kept to a minimum. I'm also going to try and cook all my meals from scratch and maybe bulk make them and just freeze something for ease. Sticking to the diet nutrition plan of the program was really hard for me but I'm going to use myplate or something similar to track my calories.
Well I think I'm just rambling on just now, so Ill leave it there. I'm going to go listen to my book and play Pokemon.

P90x Day 29: Chest, tricep and shoulders + Ab Ripper X
So Ive lost my laptop charger at my bros house, so annoying so posting this from my different comp. Did today and it felt like the first day all over again, two week without ab ripper almost killed me. But I did it I complete the number of reps that the Kids do. I did need to pause a few times and catch my breath but it was ok after I finished.
Now Chest, Triceps and Shoulders was a different matter I was fucked 10 mins into the darn thing. Could barely do anything, I was so happy with my results of the third week being able to do 15 push-ups. In the first workout having to do 12 slow ones was murder I had to go down to my knees for the military ones. For the weighted exercises I went back down to 2.5. So wasn't very happy but it is the first week of the 2nd phrase so I don't mind much.
So I'm off, one of my neighbor bought me a bottle of champagne for my 21st and I must say after drinking it I don't like it. I hate wine and now I hate champagne, never tried it before now and I thought it would be different to wine but it ain't.
If you guys want to see my pictures that I uploaded today then go on to my photobucket account, Ive uploaded today's pictures just to see the difference two weeks have done. Ive gained INCHES!!!!! its a disaster but I'm looking past it and looking to the future were I am healthy and loving myself.

Update
So after talking to my boyfriend about my disappoinment about not working out for a week and also to the people that commented I have decided to start tomorrow as week 5 day 29.
I think that I realized that I'm kind of scared and lacking in motivation that I need to keep me going. So for a few hours I browsed the beachbody website and the weight-loss website that I previously mentioned and after getting some inspiration I am raring to go again.
I must say that most of my new found inspiration came from this video:

Away for a few days
So you are probably wondering why I haven't posted anything in a few days, well I have actually been visiting some relatives. I came to my brothers house for a few days because since he moved away I haven't actually visited yet and decided since I had a week off of work I would take the opportunity to visit. I hope to get back sometime today, and start posting regularly either tonight or tomorrow.
Oh If anyone reading this has a 3ds do you want to add me? Ive only got SSF4 just now and I'm really rubbish at it but its a laugh. Add me and leave me a comment and ill add you.

Birthday Weekend
So I haven't posted on here since Wednesday I think, not too sure but anyway I'm posting now. Yesterday was my birthday the big 21! I did however pigout quite a bit this week, which I'm not too pleased about. On Saturday I got drunk after work, few beers and a couple of vodkas. On Sunday I got wasted on Budweiser, lambrini, vodka and whiskey. Got a Chinese for dinner, sweet and sours chicken balls and fried rice. It was so lovely. Had a bit of my birthday cake, just the icing mind. Then today Ive been drinking lots of Irn Bru, had a big cup full of fanta too. Got a chicken royale with cheese and large fries, also half a chocolate cheesecake out of farmfoods.
Having this amount of alcohol and food and seriously fucked me up! I feel like crap, that might just be the hangover but I also think its the amount of sugar and fat, not had sugar since ash Wednesday so it was a lot for my system to handle.
So starting tomorrow I'm back on a strict diet and Ill start working out again.
Oh and I got a 3ds for my birthday wohoo

P90x Day 28: Stretch X
So I've taken today as a rest day, I'm just so tired from work. I was suppose to start at 5 today but got phoned in the morning and had to go in straight away. I'm not going to go into it all, I've already ranted away to the other half but it was a very hard and frustrating day. Especially at certain people in my department but there is nothing I can do now.
I'm so exhausted it unbelievable so I've decided to skip this stretch day and just take it as a rest day. Tomorrow I start a brand new workout so I am looking forward to it a lot. I've been missing my strength exercises this week.
I can believe its almost my 30 day picture time, I honestly cant believe I've come this far. Never though I would be here 4 weeks in. I'm going to sleep now, its my day off tomorrow, my phone is getting switched off and I'm going to get up early do all the things that I need to and get on with my workout. I'm actually exited!

P90x Day 27: Yoga X
Work was very stressing lots to do and not a lot of time to do it in. I had to stay late at work to get at least a good portion of the work done. So came in from work really late, tired and really not wanting to do the workout at all, especially for a hour and a half.
I did get myself off my ass after a while and got into my workout clothes and started. I only did the first part of the workout so I've promised myself that I will make up the poses part some other time. I was just so tired after all the downward dogs and leg raises that I gave up and crawled into bed and fell instantly asleep.

P90x Day 26: Core Synergistics
This workout was hard, this is the first time that I've done this particular one. IT consisted mostly of rolling around on the floor, much to the annoyance of my cat who kept trying to jump over me. A lot of the time I had to watch Tony and the "Kids" do the moves a few times then rewind it and try it myself. Which was a bit of a pain in the backside but Ill get used to it eventually, I think I need to do it most recovery weeks I've forgotten so Ill need to look at my workout sheets to see.
It felt weird after almost a week working out my core muscles like that, I'm so used to doing Ab ripper x three times a week and then just stopping. Not looking forward to having to pick that back up again at the end of this week.
Well I'm going to go and watch some TV since I can for once, not in work until tomorrow night so going to lazy about until I have to go to sleep.
If any of you guys are wanting to start P90x and have any questions about it then don't hesitate to ask, I do read your comments I just don't have enough time to respond back, which makes me kind of sad. But yeah, If you have any questions then ask away, I don't know if I will be able answer then all correctly. I'm not a fitness nut after all but I might be able to point you in the right direction.

P90x Day 25: Stretch X
Today was the first day off since the beginning of the week it was sooooooo good. Managed to get dinner at a reasonable time, managed to read some of my followers blogs. Managed to have a nice shower, watch some firefly and serenity and be lazy as hell today. All the things I wanted to do today I just didn't, I've not felt so tired this week since the busy Christmas period at work. Its all good though, next Sunday I'll have a full week of because I'm on holiday for my birthday when Ill be 21!!!
P90x Day 24: Kenpo X
So I'm just finished Kenpo X, and Im am sweating like crazy!
I forget just how much you sweat while doing this workout, I probably sound like a parrot just repeating this over and over again.I always forget going into this one just how intense it is.

Photos!!!!
Ok, so I've read your comments and I know I said I would post pictures. Sorry but I've been at work for 10 hours a day, all week so I've not had time. I've barely had time to do the workouts. I have however managed to upload them to photobucket so here is the link if you would like to view them just now until I get the change to post them. I'll just be editing this post when I get the change to post them.

P90x Day 22: Yoga
So Thursday was Yoga, still no major improvement with this workout. Still wobble, fall over and find it difficult to hold the poses for very long. I didn't do the full workout because I got in late from work, and was shattered. I did do as much as I could before I fell asleep.

P90x Day 19: Legs & Back + Ab Ripper X
So today was legs and back my least favourite of the P90x routines so far, its just so murder on my legs. It takes me all my time to do the moves still. I just hope that my the end of the 90 days it get a little bit better. The pull-ups are fine now, still struggle on the last few (still doing 15 assisted). After the rest week I'm hoping to maybe do 1 unassisted, if I get to 5 by the end of the program I will be so happy.
