Natasha's Day #1

In my life I have had plenty of worries but saddlebags and love handles were never one of them. HOLY CRAP what happened? Am I missing something? When did my favorite pair of jeans become the devil? Never did I imagine how one pair of jeans could create such instantaneous profanity!
So I did the dirty deed. I had to put my money where my mouth was and put down my glass of wine and throw away my crumb cake. I needed to get out of my rut and get my A@* in gear! No more frikin excuses. I am a very determined girl and come hell or high water I refuse to have a cupcake as my nemesis!!! Well on second thought my whole entire wardrobe can quite easily fit into that category- no pun intended!
Time to take charge! I am going to fight the battle of the bulge one day at a time and with one highly energetic and super fit dude who, at birth, was given the name Tony Horton but I will refer to him as "The Godfather"....of fitness that is.
My friend quite eloquently informed me of a quote that she recently came across, a quote that is in your face painfully honest.
"If you don't pay attention to your ass then no one else will!" OMG seriously??? Could that have anymore truth!!
So without further ado I give you my day one of my 90 day journey with a program called P90X.
Truth be know I have at least 5 tape measurers in my house and I can't fine ONE!! I am sure the results would be something along the lines of:
Waist: WTF?
Hips: This can't be happening!
Thighs: Someone call 911.....NOW!
I do however have my weight....drum roll please....145 lbs. I know some of you are thinking that is not a lot at all but all of my life I have been about 120 lbs. So I have an extra 25 lbs of flubber that has been dispersed amidst my body like some weird science project that has gone bad! With the size of my love handles one would think I was drowning in love--ahem no such luck!
I got up this morning at 6 A.M. leaving no time for my mind to think of an excuse- and believe me I had a notepad full of them by my bedside table.
I stumbled straight into the living room and proceeded to do Core Synergistics. OK The Godfather ain't lying I feel it EVERYWHERE in my core as well as my legs and arms. These workouts are no joke. That infomercial was not lying. I am anxious for day two. I feel fantastic considering I have 89 more days left!
I will be the first to admit I HATE COUNTING CALORIES but if you are going to be a bear be a grizzly right? I ate so clean today!!! I am so frikin proud of myself!!! No sugar, who by the way is one of my bff's-along with sugar and the other sugar. I kept my calories right around 1500 today. I do not feel weak at all but will add or subtract if I see the need.
Overall I am jumping up an down inside because I am so proud of myself for following through and "Bringing It". I think these were The Godfather's first words as a child, actually to be quite honest I don't think he cried at birth he most likely bellowed "BRING IT"!!
