forty-five days later

So forty-five days I ago, I decided to just snap out of this lazy funk and start working out again, specifically the P90X cycle, then I discovered Shaun T’s insanity. Not only was I going to just work out, I was going to eat much better, start with a 7 day cleanse and double it up by doing both Insanity and P90X each day, in what I call PP-sanity90X (lol).

I tell everyone it’s been an amazing experience, I feel a lot better, haven’t really been stressed out since I began, I’ve dropped about 25 pounds, and yes it’s kind of evolved into an ego for myself, not that I think I’m better than everyone, but that I’ve got to a stage where I can look back at my old self and be like, “you loser.”

I can feel like that a lot of other people can kind of see how hard I’m working and just consider just doing something. Because at the end of the day, I just want the people around me to be better or just do something amazing so I can feel good for them instead of having to talk about what I can do to help them. You just got to do things for yourself, by yourself sometimes.

I manage to work a 9 to 5 job, 6 to 7 days a week, while finding the energy and time to work out twice a day (about 50 mins each) and still enjoy going out to hang out, shoot some photos, see my family back home.

It’s not even about getting a hot body for me, it’s just not letting my self-doubts or laziness get in the way of life.

Just get up and go, life will become more colorful.
