P90X Week 14: Days 96-98
Workout
Today is Friday of my official last week of P90X! We are heading out of town for the weekend to visit friends in NYC so I’m going to spare you the suspense and just tell you up front that I didn’t do any working out this weekend. So, officially, today is my last day of P90X (for the first time, at least). I did Core Synergistics this morning and was very happy with the way the workout went. I had pretty much already decided that I wasn’t going to get up early on Saturday, before our 9:15 bus, to do Yoga so I knew that this would really be it for my first crack at P90X. Therefore I worked a little harder than I might otherwise have. I did the entire workout from start to finish and through the bonus round. I felt like it was necessary, knowing that I was heading into a weekend of gluttony and that I’d have to do record my weight and measurements when I got back. At least I can’t say I didn’t try!
Diet
Though I started the day off on a good note, with a yogurt for breakfast, a Kashi meal for lunch, and healthy snacks in between, dinner wasn’t exactly what you’d call diet-friendly. Since we’d be out of town for a couple days, I wanted to get rid of any perishables in the fridge. So my husband had leftover Chicken Marsala and I had leftover fried Italian rice balls. Oh and I paired them both with a salad so, ya know, that was healthy.
For the weekend, I actually packed lunches for our bus ride so that, if we stopped at a rest stop along the way, we wouldn’t end up eating Sbarro’s or Burger King or something equally nasty. Instead we had turkey and cheese on wheat bread with lettuce and tomato and some snacks. Of course once we got into NYC it was all Mexican food, margaritas, beer, waffles, bacon and eggs. Upon our return to DC, we ordered a greasy pizza for dinner. I can’t wait to do my wiegh-in and report how bad the last phase of P90X was for me!
