P90X - Day 80 / Seventeen Day Diet - Cycle 2, Day 17

I am so glad I took yesterday off!  I feel so much better today.  I really think I have been over training.  The warm weather has simply been too irresistible, and I felt I had to get out and go hiking, in addition to the P90X Doubles.  I still feel that way, but I really only have one more really difficult P90X day after today (Friday), and I will not be able to hike on Friday due to a family commitment... so I think the danger of over training is past.  That being said, I did go and do another 6 mile hike with my son right after my P90X workout today.

Also, today is the last day of Cycle 2 of the 17 Day Diet.  The diet has been going very well, but I can't help feel that I'm leaving this cycle on a bit of a down note.  Not only did I not workout yesterday, but I also cheated a little on the diet... and that was after a cheat day this past Saturday.  I definitely lost a good deal of weight during this cycle (will weigh in tomorrow morning), but I think I probably could have lost another 2 or 3 lbs if it were not for these few missteps these past few days.  Looking forward to starting Cycle 3!

The workout felt great today... and I'm sure that's due to the fact that I missed yesterday, and was very well rested.
