P90X Diet Tips – Processed Sugar Sucks So Bad!

Chocolate Chip Devil

Holy crap! My wife made a gazillion chocolate chip cookies to send out as thank yous to a bunch of our friends who’ve been total sweethearts to us and our kids.

It’s a nice gesture. There is a problem though. I like those $#%@^@* cookies. I hear them calling to me when I’m in the other room. My wife has been unsuccessful at packaging up those cookies and getting them delivered fast enough so that I don’t sample the crap out of the dang things.

A ate a couple, I mean a few of them. Ok, ok……I’ve eaten a bucket of the things. Let me tell you, I’m now paying the price. My workout today practically killed me. I haven’t been this lethargic since before I started the P90X workouts 3 months ago. All this processed sugar sucks!

I’ve been riding the bike religiously over the last couple of months with the exception of 2 weeks ago when we were traveling and I can put a good hour in without really even feeling it.

I barely got into it 30 minutes today and my legs just gave up on me. I went to lift weights afterwards and they felt at least twice as heavy as normal.

The rest of these cookies better get delivered tonight or I won’t be able to get out of bed tomorrow. I have never had this much incentive to not eat this junk anymore. I don’t want to feel like this ever again. I have got to remember how I’m feeling right now the next time I’m tempted to eat a bunch of sugary crap.

Tomorrow will be all about healthy foods and balance. I’ll get my Shakeolgy Protein Shake in the morning and eat some fruit. I’ll eat my 5 – 6 small meals and get myself feeling “normal” again.

I’ve said for a long time that it’s not enough to just work out doing my bike riding and P90X, but that I have to eat wisely as well. I’ve really done a pretty good job of not eating too much garbage over the last 3 months.

Today was an exception, I had 6 of these cookies about a half hour before my workout and I was completely wasted. Maybe it’s just a coincidence, but I don’t want to take any chances.

I want to feel good again!
