Excuse 1, 2, 3, and 4.

So much for my "No more excuses" rant. The stomach flu has hit this family hard. Everyone has had it, and it's been violent. It's been a non-stop vomit festival since Tuesday night. It hit me on Friday and it took me all weekend to recover.

Feeling better now, so I am NOW ready to commit to saying "No Excuses - unless I get a killer stomach flu."

Tomorrow morning - 04/26/2010 - it begins. I was hoping to start earlier so my 90 days will be complete before school starts on July 19th - but this will have to do.

Let's rock this

P90X has arrived. I have a weakness for infomercials. Thankfully I do not watch a lot a TV. Because every time an infomercial is on, I get sucked in, and I need to have that product.

A few things I have so willingly wasted money are the shake weight, the contour ab system, Turbo Jam, a variety of hair removal systems and even something as ridiculous as this:


It's true. I bought myself a personal sound amplifier for no good reason at all. The commercial had me sold. "It turns ordinary hearing into extraordinary hearing.". I am an infomercial junkie. It's a weakness. I can't help it. I need to have stuff.

The other morning, around 5:00 am, I woke up to the P90X infomercial and not surprisingly, I was hooked. I had to have it.

Now it's here. My own personal gym in a box. This will be my ultimate challenge. I am going to make a commitment to myself to follow through with something I will say I do. I started this blog in the hopes that it will keep me motivated. If other people know I am doing this - then I have to follow through with it right?

So this is it. For the next 90 days - I am going to commit to something. No excuses. Starting tomorrow.... ;)

Tonight - I will enjoy my last greasy pizza for the next 90 days.
P90X recommends before and after pictures. So I will do it, to see if there really is a difference, and how much of a difference, after 90 days. I also fully intend on having a tan body when it comes time for my "after" pictures, just like the people in the infomercials do.
Time to get personal.
