Day 1 of Insanity: My Near-Death Experience

The countdown is on: there is only about 3 1/2 months left until my little brothers wedding and I have begun to panic. Operation lose weight and get toned has officially begun. After all, I have to look good in my bridesmaid dress!

After I had Trent, I lost the baby weight by doing P90x before my older brother's wedding last summer. This time, I have decided to try Insanity and today was  my first day. Holy you know what....that crap is hard!

Let me start out by saying that the "warm-up" kicked my ass all by itself. Let me also say that I am glad no one was around to see the mess that I was during that work out. First off, my boobs are insanely, ridiculously ginormous right now since I am nursing, so every time I jumped in the air, and there is an ungodly amount of jumping, I could feel my boobs lift off of my body and slap back down. There was even a slapping noise to accompany my boobs flopping off my chest despite the fact that I was wearing a sports bra. I could see my reflection in the television and let me just say that it was not a very pretty sight.

Halfway through the work out, I was feeling quite light headed and I was panting like a fat kid running after an ice cream truck. Needless to say, I was elated when Jagger woke up to eat because that meant I could take a break. I firmly believe that his waking up to nurse saved my life...or at least, he saved my fat behind from blacking out from exhaustion.

After I nursed the baby and put him down, I resumed the work out which was insanely hard. I now know why the workout is called Insanity! I cannot believe that Trent did not wake up from his nap since my jumping around the family room sounded like an elephant running through the house. I may not have completed every rep that the crazy instructor did, but I did complete the workout. I have a feeling that my legs will feel like jello later but I know that it will be worth it.

Now all I want is an Oreo cookie from the box that I bought today for Trent's "poop on the potty" reward but I will refrain. Instead, I am going to grab an apple and get Trentster up from his nap.

Hopefully, I am able to walk tomorrow and complete Day 2 of the workout. I think that I will double up on bra's tomorrow and hopefully that will help the flopping and slapping around! I'll let you know how tomorrow goes!
