Day 2

I was definitely right about the pain facture.  Everything hurts today.  I am really regretting the "practice" CardioX routine JJ and I did on Sunday.  It definitely affected my performance during the PlyometricsX routine that we did today, mostly because I can barely do one squat, let alone 50. 

I did do better than I thought I would, given that this is the most challenging X-routine there is.  During our last P90X attempt, the plyo became one of my favorite routines, and I am looking forward to feeling that way again.  At this stage, I am just glad I don't have to do another jump-squat for 7 whole days.

For those who are wondering, JJ and I are following the meal plan with much success.  Since we already know what meals are simple and which recipes we like, putting our weekly menus together has been pretty easy.  Even after dropping the meal plan after our last P90X attempt, we didn't really get out of the habit of cooking most of our meals from scratch, so we haven't had to change our grocery shopping habits and nightly routines too much.  The big difference is that we do more grocery trips (at least one a week) and have a counter full of dishes every night.  But we are a good team.  We both help to prepare dinner, then I make lunches, JJ does the dishes, and hopefully we get to bed at a reasonable time.

Instead of listing my entire menu for the day, I am just going to write down the items I should NOT have had:
1/4 Cup Sprite
1/4  Cup Honey roasted nut mix
I didn't eat all of my salad at lunch because it wasn't sitting well with me so I had an extra protein bar.
