P90x Workout Reviews: Day 8 Pictures and Measurements

Week one is complete, we seem to be making some progress compared to the Day1 Pictures, here are our latest pictures and thoughts about the week:

Chelsea: 3/8/2010    Weight: 124 lbs  (+.2 lbs)

Overall this week was productive. I fell the burn and I am very sore, but I know it is worth it. My calves are hating me the most out of any muscle this week. I am looking forward to the weeks to come. To all you fellow p90x-ers out there…how long did it take before your muscles stopped getting sore?

Chris: 3/8/2010    Weight: 151.8 lbs (+6.8lbs – remember my goal is to gain weight not loose it)

I cant believe that week one is over.  I have really struggled with my diet this week as I came from such a terrible diet.  I usually ate only two meals a day, and they were usually fast food including lots of soda.  I have managed to not have soda once this week, and I have prepared every single meal.  Since my goal is to gain weight I have been eating more calories but also much healthier foods.  I have been eating at least one Shakeology shake with two scoops of added protein each day along with a protein bar sometime during the day.  I have also been working my way up to 6 meals per day.  I know I put on some weight however I think the 6.8 lbs may have been a bit skewed since I did not weight myself at the same time both days which is a big no-no.   Hopefully I will end up around 160 by the end of 90 days.

Week 1 went about as well as I could have hoped for.  Although, I did have soreness in my arms and legs that lasted for several days that I wish I didn’t have. Other than that I just felt better every day because I knew i was being active and doing my body a great favor.  Now that I have made it passed the first week I am confident I will make it through the whole 90 day program.  I can’t wait to see my future results!
