Week 6

I am smack dab in the middle of week 6 of P90X. I'm frustrated because I haven't lost any weight, although I do feel much better endurance and strength-wise. My beachbody coach (see my link to coach Scottie) encouraged me to join a BeachBody challenge which is about transforming your body and your life, and one of the things I need to do is journal or blog. So here's my blogging. :)
I'm having no problems doing the workouts and can, for the most part, keep up with the crazy-fit people on the videos. However, where my main weakness lies is in the nutrition. I am having such a hard time eating the way I should. And I'm confused about it. With how my body processes food, I can't really eat the way most people can, so I will be making an appointment to see my Dr. that treats me for PCOS. I want to find out what my calorie intake should be (based on how much I'm now burning each day with my workouts) and how to fuel my body the right way so that I don't crash. I'm wondering if there's anyone else out there who's really struggling with PCOS, and eating right, and exercising like crazy, and trying to lose weight? I've been stuck at this point for a while and I'm not sure where to go from here.
Sorry to be a downer this time around... it's real life, folks!
However, I DID order another beachbody program called Insanity, which I will start doing alongside P90X as soon as it arrives. Maybe that will help with getting the results that I want! (although I DO know that nutrition is 95% of the battle....)
I will update again soon.
