I was greeted overnight with a nasty full body rash, just when things finally seemed to kick off for weight loss again. Hopefully, cream and Benadryl will take care of it because I don't want to delay my exercise challenge for it. I've already done little but sleep. My joints are aching from standing around Comic Con all day, so it's no wonder my immune system failed me.
Still, I am down to 191 lbs and still fighting! I want to update my daily exercise but that will have to wait for my next post. I struggle just to stay awake to write this. I might be ill right now but I remain hopeful for my current course. Things are moving again. I'll get through this too!

Challenge week almost over
So here's the deal. This week I wanted to go whole hog, so I kicked things into gear and pushed. I'm nervous about weighing in on Monday, expecting not to see a drop of weight lost. My muscles are really digging in and Ive had to keep my calories up just to fuel. I regret nothing. No rest day and here's where I am, with Saturday and Sunday not done yet:
Monday: hour walk, PiYo upper, HIIT lower, floor
Tuesday: hour walk, PiYo lower, HIIT upper
Wednesday: hour walk, PiYo upper, HIIT core, floor
Thursday: hour walk, PiYo lower, HIIT upper
Friday: hour walk, PiYo upper (partial), HIIT lower, floor
Saturday: PiYo sweat, HIIT core
Sunday: PiYo core, HIIT head to toe
Yeah, so Friday I had to go light but it's a hard day on my joints. I did nail my HIIT for the good cardio though so I'm okay with that.
I'm starting P90X3 Monday for a trial run. I'm going to take detailed notes on my impressions for blogging later but it comes highly recommend by Joe. Who's Joe? Never mind, he's Joe so he knows. I hope to keep it up for the 90 days and resume PiYo later. He assures me PiYo was way harder for him so I'm hoping whatever I built on px3 will set me back up to do the PiYo challenge later. I do love IGNiTE with SPRI 900 with Ashley Borden for the awesome warm ups and cool downs and deceptive simplicity. You look and think it's cake but, dayum, it's no joke. I'll be doing all of these with px3 though so I'll only be doing PiYo or ignite if I am up for an extra push.
Still weigh in be damned, I see the tone, damn it! I might need a doc to figure out how to make food work in this aching body, but it will be so eventually. At some point, my sexy new muscles will pick up some slack.
