…certified.

I don’t think that it’s something to brag about but it is what it is. Although I recognize that this may not be considered an endearing quality to the masses, being a bitch is sometimes necessary. There are people in life who purposely try you just to see how far they can push before you give. And I am starting to believe that there are some people out there who purposely push my buttons just to get cursed the fuck out.

So today, I am going to stop. I’m going to ignore the shit talkers, the backstabbers, the REAL haters (b/c correcting your spelling on a shitty magazine cover doesn’t qualify as hating at all), the liars, the story creators…all that.

The bottom line is…I have things going on. A lot. Just because I choose not to disclose my blessings doesn’t mean that they don’t exist. I am in the process of trying to establish certain relationships with certain people, so the last thing I need is the label of a girl that will go HAM on your ass if you get out of line. Make no mistakes…I still won’t be disrespected. But arguing with these idiots on the internet doesn’t make me any money. Aww, my sexy boo, Lisa Wu said it too…if it doesn’t make me money, I don’t do it.

Some people crave attention and because I find breaking some of these fools down to be quite hilarious, I tend to cave and give it to them. But no more…real talk. I promised someone via email that I would control my tongue and continue pressing on. Tonight, I broke that promise. I was then reminded via message of a dream that I had around the time when I first started my blog and that person reminded me of that dream…a nice reminder to keep doing me, ya know?

So it ends here, bitches. The internet is suppose to be a hobby for me…why waste it on those that are considered minuscule in the grand scheme of things?

I really can’t believe I made it through another day of this. I had to go to Walmart to buy some muscle cream stuff to go on the inner areas of both of my calves b/c those fuckers are a bit sore. I am sweaty, I am STANK and I still have to eat dinner (that’s something I have to get a handle on). I just happened to be on the phone with my homies MsStylistik and MF213 and they were like “Bitch you might as well eat a salad if you’re eating this late. So that’s exactly what I’m having…a small salad with chicken on top and pineapples. WATER!

Oh to those that were curious…when I got on the scale this morning (as SOON as I woke up), I was .5 lb lighter. So that makes 7 lbs in 9 days. I’m NOT going to weigh myself anymore for a while. I’ll at least wait until day 30 before I weigh myself again.

Nonetheless, all is well. But for now, it’s shower time!

Hey if you have Insanity or any workout, feel free to post in the comments area and tell me about your day. I’m all ears….

Another day completed! To be quite honest with you, I really didn’t feel like working out today. I had a headache earlier and had been running around almost all day. By the time I got home, I wanted to take a nap but since I didn’t blog at the Miss Jia blog, I decided to stay up and do at least three posts.

Nonetheless, I posted on Twitter that I went to put on my rings last night and they literally slid off my hand. I assumed that since my PMS came and went that the ‘water weight’ I get during that time was the culprit (for them being tighter). Well after my workout today, I decided to get naked and hop on the scale. It said that I lost 6.5 lbs! I thought…wait, lemme try this again. Got off, got back on…same thing. I couldn’t believe it. That’s a LOT of weight to lose in a week. Honestly, I think that most of it is either water weight OR if it is such a loss, it’s b/c I’m probably not eating as much as I SHOULD in a day. I have been drinking so much damn water that by the time it IS time for me to get my grub on, I am damn near full! But Insanity is a very intense program. Extremely intense. To any of you who played sports during your school years, I’m sure that your coach put you through drills that left you panting for air before you were even midway through. Well, Insanity does the same thing PLUS kicks it up two notches. Shaun T. doesn’t play and I’m excited about tomorrow’s workout.

My goal is to be a size 7. I really don’t give a shit how much weight I lose b/c the # has never been a ‘thing’ for me. I only have a scale in my house NOW because I started some new birth control a while back and wanted to keep track of any weight gain. Thankfully there wasn’t any (but I also stopped b/c I heard about the damn blood clots and heffas dying just to keep the babies away. Not a fair trade if you ask me). Anyway, I’m determined to be a size 7. Anything smaller than that wouldn’t look right on me b/c I have a big head…and fat cheeks that don’t go away no matter how much I work out.

People have been asking me if you could do Insanity if you are not use to working out. Quite frankly, you can do whatever you want to do. I just think that if you aren’t use to some level of activity in your life, you’ll probably injure yourself on this program. Shaun T. emphasizes speed and agility with these work outs. You have to do a LOT of quick movements and again, if you’re not USE to working out, you will fuck something up…thus meaning you’d have to quit anyway. If you’re looking for something to do UNTIL you get use to working out, I suggest Slim in 6. I will warn you…Debbie Siebers is boring as hell. I literally want to slap her ass with a bag of “personality” and a side of “damn-be-charismatic-please” but…the workout works. Now, I did that before and made it through the whole 6 weeks. I didn’t weigh myself at the time but I do remember that overall, I lost like 20 inches. Not bad. Anyway I recommend trying that before shelling out a whopping $160 for Insanity. It’d be shitty to get it and not be able to use it to the best of your ability. But again, it’s up to you!

Day 9 tomorrow and I can’t wait to go INSANE!!

Done.

I did Slim in 6 this morning…and Insanity just now. I swear, I’m be a beast when it’s over.

@Stephony! Don’t do Insanity more than once a day. TRUST ME, you will burn yourself out!

Finished.

Tomorrow is suppose to be my day off (b/c I started on Tuesday) BUT I’m gonna just start with week 2 tomorrow so that THIS coming Sunday can be my day off. Goodness…does it get any easier? I hope so!

I had a SERIOUS adrenaline rush during today’s workout (Hmm…I wonder why?). Tomorrow is day 7 of INSANITY!

@Stephony: I see in another comment that you got the DVD set? I swear Beach Body needs to pay a bitch b/c I have had about 7 people get the set!! That’s a GRAND for them! Pssh LMAO Nah but let me know how it goes for you and remember…..

This workout is probably going to be my 2nd favorite b/c Shaun T. takes you through a series of about 5 routines (yes, back to back) and he really works you out. It’s really hard to get through EACH individual exercise without stopping. Even though the folks who are in mad shape on the DVD (and message boards) talk about how they’re not able to get through the whole thing without falling out.

At the end of the DVD, right before the warmup begins, Shaun T. is laid out on the floor and says “This shit is bananas!” They beeped it out, of course but it was still hilarious.

Tomorrow is day 6 and back to the plyometric cardio joint. Monday, I WILL start my two a days, without question. Just gotta figure out a definite schedule.

Enjoy your weekend!
