looking back...

This has been quite a year for me, I started it weighing almost 200lbs, I finally decided to do something about it in Feb when I picked up the phone and ordered my copy of P90X.

I started P90X on March 15th, a few weeks into the program I sprained my elbow washing my SUV, a few weeks after that I fractured my foot missing a step and falling, I continued to push forward even through the injuries and I completed my 1st round of P90X with some modifications. I went down to 178 lbs from 194 lbs and I lost 26 inches all around, since then I have tried over and over again to complete another program but without much success, I tried starting Insanity and 2 weeks into the program had to stop because my foot was hurting so bad. I went back to the Ortho and found out my fracture was re-fracturing and I had to stop and take a few weeks off. I tried to start a 2nd round of P90X and then I started getting massive nosebleeds, had to get on medication and stop working out again, after almost 2 months of start and stop because of the nosebleeds they finally stopped.

Next up was TurboJam, loved it got through a few weeks and was doing good,so I ordered TurboFire and started that a week into it I got Bronchitis and was so sick I could not workout, had to take almost 2 weeks off. Started TurboFire again and then came the COLD weather, colder than its been in ages in So Flo and my foot started up again, had to put my workouts on hold, again, last week it was hurting so bad that I got my foot x-rayed and found out that the bone healed correctly in the bottom but the top healed mis-aligned and thats why its hurting so bad. The Ortho said I have to stay off of it for a while so the inflammation around the bone goes down and he gave me anti-inflammatory's to take.

Here it is Dec 18th and I havent been able to complete another program or round of P90X, however I have learned that Fitness is not a FAD it is a lifestyle and I will continue to get up every time I fall, so no matter what life throws ahead of me I will continue to push forward in my fitness journey...

Starting Monday, Dec 20th I am going to start P90X again and then come Jan 3rd I will start TurboFire again, my goals for 2011 is to COMPLETE TurboFire, move my workouts to the morning, lose 50lbs and continue my health and fitness routine.

I may not have accomplished my goals in 2010 but I worked on them and Im not giving up on them, I will continue to make new goals and continue to push forward in 2011.

I have gained 10lbs back I am weighing 188lbs but I will not let that bring me down, I know that the only way to fail is to quit. So New YEAR, new goals and new dreams ahead...

Its time to stop looking back and start looking forward...
