Hello everyone is anyone doing p90x?

I am down 112 lbs. am am tired with all my workouts, really bored I guess. :biggrin:

I have walk away the miles, biggest loser, the wave, the bow flex and I walk and jog. I have not exercised honestly in a month I was exercising two times a day 5 days a week for four months and then fell off the wagon and haven't in a month. I am still losing but I know I have to get back to working out.

So I was interested in this p90x thing, if anyone with the band is using it, my brother and cousin say its great but I dont know how I feel about it. Anyone who had tried it or heard anything about it please let me know.

Thanks,

Rae

Lots of people at my church are doing it and they LOVE it. They have seen amazing results in a short time and the routine is so varied, it's difficult to get bored.

I am going to start it this week; I just need to watch some of it first so that I'm prepared before I jump in. I really didn't know much about it until my husband mentioned that his Army class was doing some of it for their morning PT; after that I did some research on it. I'm not in the best shape now, so I figure I may have to do my own version of p90x "lite" the first time around, then do the series again when I'm built up. That's the plan for now, but we'll see how it goes!

I just bought this a week ago and I'm soooo motivated. Thing is, I hurt my knee playing tennis a few days ago and I've been laid up. lame.

Anyway, I've heard nothing but great things about it, so I'm really excited to start!!

My question about P90X is the diet plan. Does anyone know how it works with the band? I have talked to many people who had great results from it, and I am nearing the end of my weight loss goal, and now want to adjust it to go about 25 pounds lower than that original goal, I was thinking this would be a great way to do it. The last 30 pounds or so is SO hard!!! But I am just not sure how the diet plan with the program will work with the band. Everyone I have talked to that has done it are not people with the band, and they say that the diet plan is very integral with the program, and really is about 70% of the overall program.

Thanks for any help that can be offered... and keep up the good work all!

I have heard GREAT things about P90X --- you CAN get bored and unmotivated with any video type thing -

So if you are able to get a group of people together to do it the same time and same days....maybe a church group or at a school (parents in the evening), etc......

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
