We started P90x3 yesterday. I am loving it so far! I have put myself to a challenge to complete the 90 days while sticking to the workout and the diet.
Workout: It is a little bit different because I am used to running for an hour and my an-aerobic exercise has been at least 45 minutes, so switching to 30 minute workouts feels like I am slacking! It is definitely HIIT (High-Intensity Interval Training) and the 30 minutes are tough! Food: I have felt great over the last couple days. I am excited to continue the program. The eating plan is pretty simple. It is just eating healthy and how we should be eating! Each person has a code of how many protein/carb/fat they should have for each meal/snack and you just have to figure out what to want that fits the code.
It was an answer to prayer last week - once again. I was REALLY snacky and binge ate for 2 days straight. I can always feel a loss of the spirit when I over-indulge. I know the Holy Ghost leaves me. I feel awful and Satan is in full force to tempt me to continue the gluttony or to become very depressed about myself.
I plead with Heavenly Father to let me know why I was so snacky. I wasn't feeling any sort of emotion or boredom that usually leads to my gluttony.
He peacefully answered that it was because I was tired! Yeah!! Of course it makes so much sense with our newborn - even only getting 6 hours of sleep instead of 7 was taking a toll on me. I decided that when I felt those snacky feelings I would stop working, lay down, meditate and perhaps power nap for 10 minutes. Now - I haven't officially done it yet - but I have stopped working and performed some breathing exercises. That really seemed to help and the snacky feelings have dissipated. Heavenly Father is so mindful of us. It is incredible!
