P90X: Fact or Myth

This blog is in response to Miss Dana's blog. If unaware, visit her blog and read February 1st post.
I am sure everyone complains about this little 5 or 10 or heck, even 20 lbs that we want to lose. Its the same excess weight that we all have talked about losing for a while now. If this does not apply to you and you have no excess weight, stop reading now and eat a sandwich or two! If this applies, read on. I am a victim of this horrible dilema. Here is my dilema. I have wanted to lose the same 10lbs for ever! However, I love food. Not just food in general but the yummy food that is not good for you. Taco Bell, McDonalds, Teri's cooking. You get the point. How many of you are guilty of the new years resolution of going faithfully to the gym? If you are addicted to working out, stop reading and get a new freakin hobby! If your not and are lazy like myself, continue. I too fell victim to this New Years Resolution hype. Then one day it came to me! Keith presented me with the P90X.

It did not come to me in the informercial form such as Dana. However i have seen them and I am even now more convinced then I was before. How many of you have seen informercials for stuff like Jenny Craig or Nutrisystem. They have some overweight person, in a tiny swimming suit that is clearly 5 sizes to small for their body, they are not smiling and seem to be in bad light. "Nutri system changed my life." Suddenly there are tan, have new teeth and the light is perfect. Ever seen this? Ever read the "Results not Typical" at the bottom in the tinest print possible? yeah, me too! The P90X is pretty interesting. This work out routine is done strictly from home and extremely intense. Their infomercial does not contain the "Results not Typical" After seeing some of Keith's friends that have done the 90 day program, I am serisouly convinced. This works! Keith and I purchased it and begin on Monday. I am a little nervous because it is so strict, but I am so excited to see how we will look at the end! If it doesn't work then this may be me in a few years hahah!

I would be the human umbrella by the way!
