Sorry i’m so late reading your reply – you are welcome! btw, this blog came up in google alerts that’s how i found it.

about the diet plan, its even more difficult since p90x makes you hungry, more like famished. at one point i ate 14pcs of bread at the local Italian place.

I can’t do it all the time either – i find myself skipping a lot of workouts since its still summer. my loss has stalled again i do know why.

Wow, didn’t realize I had so many readers Thank you all very much for the encouragement, that is definitely a big part of doing this (or any) big exercise program – support from others. I will keep going, and Jeff thank you I will look more in to the P90X diet plan, I had been overlooking that before.

Don’t give up! There is an answer, you just got to figure it out. Stay motivated! I’m struggling through this as well. Im on day 29 and I’ve got myself in a different kind of struggle.

Hang in there though!

don’t feel alone. i did 6 weeks and gained a lb and had zero change in my body fat %.

then i changed it up, i started eating a lot less than before. over the next four weeks of phase 2 i felt hungry all the time. but i lost 12 lbs and came down by 5% body fat! so thing is, follow the 90x diet part – but you have to cut back on calories – a lot. and it will work great.

i did feel really depleated during workouts, kinda weak, and my strength didn’t go up much but it made such a huge difference to eat very little. i think 1200 cal / day and i’m 200lb 5-11.

keep in mind your body gets a huge hungar surge when you workout on p90x, and that can stop your loss.

good luck stacey!

I just got through week eight and I think I am gaining inches and weight. Any insight?
