re: p90x mommies

Quoting Dina Monique's NY Mama:" <blockquote><b>Quoting Jess♫:</b>" I did! ... I can BARLEY do a regular push ... [snip!] ... pillows under ur chest. That helped me better then girls pushups. I can now actually do 5 pushups without pillows bc of it"

Great idea!

<blockquote><b>Quoting Jen♡Troy:</b>" Great idea!"</blockquote>




Thanx! The pillow is actually way better then girly push up. Some may need to do girly ones with the pillows but the pillows help u progress way faster. I have a lot of modifying ideas bc of my SO. And some I knew myself.
Like: sit ups, tuck ur foot under something sturdy. Pull ups: u can use a chair or tie resistant bands on the pull up bar in a hoop, tuck ur knees in them like in a kneeling position. Totally awesome.

So are any ladies big girls when they started that are having/had a good time?

How long pp did you start?

Quoting Jen♡Troy:" I have not been on in so long, sorry. I would do another week of Phase 1. I am sure you already started tho. lol"

I actually haven't started back up again yet. When I was just at the end of my infection and was going to start up again I got a call booking my surgery for this coming week and I thought what was the point of getting started again to only have to take a further 6 weeks off. It looks like I won't be able to get going again till september   But on the up side I used these last 2-3 weeks to start running again so that I'd at least get some cardio in again and I've lost 4 lbs and 3/4 of an inch from everywhere   This might actually work out really well that I'll maybe go back to running for the month of september and then in October when we get snowed in for the next 8 mos I'll go back to P90X, then I'll get right of some of this fat before I start building muscle again.

How have you been doing Mama?

So I haven't posted in here out of embarrassment that I quit my diet.. quit p90x and started stress eating.... So much things have been happening in my life. TODAY I am getting back on track on everything (no cheating, and starting p90x all over) and I WILL LOSE 40 LBS.

It is OKAY! NO regrets! NO looking back!!! I am here for you!! Start chatting in our group!

Quoting Jen♡Troy:" Awesome hun! I hope your surgery goes well for you!"

looks like it may take me even longer to get back in to working out since my surgery unfortunately almost killed me   Turns out I have a clotting disorder I didn't know about and after being sent home I massively hemorrhaged, loosing almost 3 litres of blood. Apparently it will take me a few months to build up the stamina to get back into a workout routine. But on the plus side, I lost 12 pounds while in hospital, lol.

OMG Mama!! That is soooo awful! How are you feeling now? I am SO sorry that you had to go through that!

Quoting Jen♡Troy:" OMG Mama!! That is soooo awful! How are you feeling now? I am SO sorry that you had to go through that!"

Sore from repeat surgeries in the same area in such a short period of time but otherwise I'm feeling much better as far as the blood loss goes. My only real issue at the moment is this prednisose they're giving to prevent the clotting disorder while I'm healing is totally kicking my ass. But even that's ok, only 5 more days of it   Just glad to be alive really!
