I was not very faithful to my routine while we were on our trip. I did run a couple times, on a treadmill, on a cruise ship. That was pretty weird. I could feel the ship movement. The running was not hard and I was able to pick up the pace even though p90x has overthrown running.

Today it's back to p90x. Chest, shoulders and triceps + abs.

are you going to post before-and-after photos? Burt did.

Yeah, but Burt's kinda creepy.

How was your anniversary and stuff?

So, are you seeing any results yet?

I don't know. I didn't take any pictures :)

We went on a cruise and stopped at Jamaica and Grand Cayman. The coolest part was getting to hold a giant wild stingray at Grand Cayman.

I didn't take any pictures on the cruise either...

But a serious response to your questions: Bonnie, I feel weird posting pics of myself. You know Burt and his photoshop skills. And his creepiness.

And April, I am stronger. I can lift more and/or do more reps of all the exercises. As far as how I look, all my indulgences last week wiped out my burgeoning abs. I gained 3 pounds, but I'll lose it this week. I need to test how it has affected my running. I'll do a 5K next week, but I don't think it'll tell me anything definitive, since it will probably be in the late day heat.
