P90X – No Workout – No Results

I wrote about last week sucking….that was nothing compared to this week.

I’ve been sick as a dog the whole week.  Needless to say……no P90X.

No workout equals no results……..bummer.

I’ve had a major sore throat, zero energy, headaches, dizziness, clogged ears, congestion and an almost non stop dry irritating cough.

I was miserable.

I’m not one to go to the doctor unless stuff is falling off my body.

This was bad enough that I finally went yesterday.

Here’s the verdict…..allergies.  You gotta be kidding me!

I haven’t had allergies for 22 years living in Arizona.

I’m up here 4 months and have felt more sick  than ever in my life.  This is only the 2nd time in about 8 years I’ve seen the doctor because of illness.

I had no idea that allergies could make someone feel this sick.

In any case, I’m on medication at the moment and after just 24 hours, the sore throat is at least gone.

My ears are still clogged as well as my sinuses, but I can tell it’s getting better.

I was too sick to workout, but I did better this last week with my eating habits.

Smaller and more frequent meals have helped me lose s few pounds.

I guess when I said no results that wasn’t really true.

I leave tomorrow for a photo shoot in L.A. through Wednesday so I think I’ll take a set of the workout bands with me and see if I can squeeze in some P90X workouts on the road.

I’m still pretty tired and worn out from being so sick, but hopefully I’ll have more energy once the effects of the allergies go away.
