What a busy Thursday :)

So, I got my 30-day P90X measurements taken this morning! Just like I thought, not a whole lot of improvement, but I didn't expect to see dramatic results this early. That, and I don't have a WHOLE lot left to lose. I guess I can post my changes from day one of Round 2:
Weight: -4.8 pounds
Body Fat: -1.5%
Chest: no change
Waist: +.25 inches
Hips: -.75 inches
Right Thigh: -.25 inches
Left Thigh: no change
Right Arm: +.25 inches
Left Arm: -.25 inches
Total inches: -.75 inches

But, things get much better when you consider my numbers from the beginning of Round 1:
Weight: -19.4 pounds
Body Fat: -7.6%
Chest: -3.75 inches
Waist: -4.25 inches
Hips: -3.5 inches
Right Thigh: -2.5 inches
Left Thigh: -2.25 inches
Right Arm: -1.25 inches
Left Arm: -1.25 inches
Total Inches: -18.75 inches

So, just to clarify, since January 1, 2009, I have lost a whopping 19.4 pounds, 18.75 inches, and 7.6% of my body fat! That's almost 16 pounds of just fat that I've lost! I went from wearing a size 10 jeans to wearing size 4 jeans that are too big! (I'm probably in between size 4 and size 2 right now!) Can you believe it? I can't! It is like a dream. I am also ridiculously stronger than I was before this all began. Which is a good thing, b/c my nephews just keep getting bigger, and harder to pick up!

Speaking of nephews, I went over to Kate's to help her with her preschool class today. We had a WHOLE bunch of fun. We learned about the letter "H", the color black, and sound. We made music, sang songs, ate a snack, did the spoon/bell/string trick that Dad showed us when we were little (I think the kids thought it was cool), made rice/pasta shakers with leftover Easter eggs, and painted with "snow" (a mixture of shaving cream and glue). Very fun! I'm glad I was there able to help Kate out.

Well, that's about it. I took my last final for the semester yesterday, and I think I did OK. My teacher, when I went to hand my exam in, said "Man! You really are skinny!" That made me feel good. :) Now I have exactly.....ONE WEEK.....before my first summer semester class starts up. I think I'm in denial about that because I haven't even thought about getting books or looking at what the class is about. I don't even know for sure what the class is! :) So far, I've received two of the four grades for the semester-both A's. I'm crossing my fingers on the other two; hopefully I get A's in those as well. We shall see.

Ok, well, I have a Dr.'s appointment in about an hour. I guess I should get ready to go.
