I am sure you are wondering...why is Tony Horton on my blog? If you are not familiar with Tony Horton, turn your TV to the nearest infomercial station and check out what you can (potentially) look like in 90 days. Yep, he's the creator of the overly-advertised P90X workout program...something about muscle confusion and having to (attempt) to do way more pull ups than you ever planned to do in your whole entire life. So, why am I blogging about this 50 year old sensation? Mainly because I am a sucker. I am easily won over by infomercials (yes I have tried that swoopy ab machine thing at the sporting goods store and I lost some good weight in college with Billy Blanks). So, I am now doing P90X. However, I am not so easily won over that I immediately went out and spent the 149.99 on the workout program. Tony does the weekly Friday fitness updates on K-Love. It just so happened that my husband and I were separately driving to church on Good Friday and both heard Tony on K-Love touting his fitness program. We got out of our cars at church and both said we were buying it. He went on Christian radio=we were sold. Ordered it a week later. Started killing ourselves for 1 to 1.5 hours a night a week after that. Despite all the hokey advertising and my skepticism that everyone in the infomercial already looked to be in decent shape to begin with I have lost to date: 24 pounds, 2 inches off my waist and 2 inches off my thighs. Woohoo.
Note 1: I also am dieting (despite the hot dog I had for lunch...which was TOTALLY worth it) and if you are interested in a free diet program for the obsessive compulsive check out www.sparkpeople.com. If you decide to get on board refer me! I get points and a fake online trophy. Don't judge me. I like the fake trophy.
Note 2: If you ever do P90X, it makes it more fun to be stupid about it. Luke and I high-five, bump fists and have all the catch phrases memorized. (Thus, the title of my blog). One day you will see me on that infomercial looking sleek and holding up a huge pair of pants...but right now I am still wearing said pants. Oh well...work in progress.
