P90X- One Last Chicken (Wing) Dance

This is it! The night before David begins his journey! We just took the infamous before pictures which obviously no one wants to post until they have some after stuff to share! I still think he looks good no matter what he does but I can't wait for him to get started! I'm excited for him! It is definitely something to look up to in my book!

This past weekend David realized that the next three months will be nothing but protein, protein, and protein! I witnessed this realization as he ate not one but two Snicker's Ice Cream bars, discovered the kid's left over Easter candy, made one last pizza and dared to eat the "New Orleans Banana Flapjacks" I made for breakfast. Did I mention these were made with buttermilk? Why don't we just put an IV in his arm and let the fat drip?! No more ice cream (Breyer's), no more pizza (Len n Jos), no more wings! No more soda, no more candy, no more, no more, no more! I expect some challenges in this area with the summer coming!! We have four children and with that lots of fun things planned! We live on the Delaware and are determined to finally float down it! With that anyone would want to pack the famous cooler filled with snacks, sodas and beer! There are BBQ's with the family and if you knew my family you would know that where there is a get together there is some good food! There is the trip to New York we would like to take Skyler on...the trip to the Jersey shore with the amazing Lemonade, clams with melted butter and OMG the french fries! We can't forget the carnivals with the gyros and cotton candy! Or the trip to Maine we have planned in June...is there a store on every corner where we can pick up the protein shake?? And time? With work and four children is there time to drink that protein shake an hour before the hour long work out? To eat on a schedule? To do what it takes to keep this going every single day?

Well in my opinion...yes! David can do this! I have all the faith in the world in him! Not to mention all of the foods I mentioned up top he already modifies to make them healthier! We already have a head start with the wheat pizza crust, the wings dipped in wing sauce and Smart Balance, the ice cream always sweetened with Splenda but reality is even those modifications aren't going to cut it with the "life change" and I'm thrilled! I'm excited for him and wish him luck! Tomorrow is day one! The chin up bar is hung, the groceries are ready, the protein shakes are here, the before pictures are taken and he's ready for bed!
