Day 4 of the clean eating challenge and I’m still feeling a bit sluggish. I stayed up late last night watching the election results (YEAH OBAMA!) and was very tired when I got up this morning. I feel almost like I’m coming down with something. I’m hoping it’s just the lack of sleep. I made sure that I consumed more “clean” calories than the days before and that helped my energy a little but I am still crashing mid-afternoon. I have lost a couple of pounds in the past 3 days but am really surprised that I have not lost more.

My lower back is still a problem. It was KILLING me this morning. I had to take it pretty easy this morning during the P90X Chest, Shoulders and Triceps workout. Luckily this workout is mainly upper body and no core. The combination of tweaking my lower back moving furniture, then P90X + ab/core workout the following day, and then Ab ripperX the day after that has really left my back aching. I feel OK now thanks to Advil. I hope I’m better tomorrow for the scheduled Abs/Core + and Stretch X workouts. If not I’ll have to skip th eabs/core workout.

Till next time… Bring It!
