I was reading in a magazine this week about the girl who plays in "Without a Trace." She lost the sixty pounds that she gained having her baby. She said that the way she did this was through P90X and restricting her diet to so many calories with the help of a service that delivers the food to her home. Well, wouldn't that be nice?! I looked up the place and they only deliver to two places in California. This isn't the first time I've come across information in a magazine describing a program with very limited service areas. It's frustrating. What about the rest of us over here?!
One time I signed up for Nutrisystem. I was so disappointed. Despite the expensive and disgusting food in itty, bitty containers that were often fake, I still had to purchase food on top of that to complete the meals. (I only consider real chocolate to be chocolate, chicken better not be fatty as if I just went to a fast food resteraunt, and I don't like powdered milk - YUK - in my soups.) The idea was for them to do the thinking and the preparing and the agonizing for me while providing delicious foods. I lost one pound, did not renew and instead, gave away what was left of the final week's worth of food. You know, that FREE week I was given I gave away.
I guess it doesn't matter, it would be expensive and eventually I would have to actually cook for myself and what proper, healthy and good habits will I have created? None. So, it may be tempting to look for easy and already prepared, but I might as well allow myself the courtesy and experience of taking proper care of myself. Guidance would be nice, but not total abandonment from my part.
P90X is on my wish list. Before I can get it I must build my strength and fully utilize the DVD's that I have right now. I've recently ordered Zumba, too. Between all of these new ones that I haven't yet mastered, I have plenty to keep myself busy while building my strength, endurance, and discipline.
