Pink on Oprah talking about P90X

ok, Pink’s body is out of control. I also love her for saying that she puts it on mute cause we do the saaaame thing. I love Tony Horton, but he gets to be annoying.

P90X week 4 review

Well, it’s been 4 weeks and I’ve managed to stick with the P90X program! I haven’t skipped any workouts and I’ve been really good about my diet all month. I feel so incredibly accomplished. It’s the best feeling ever. Pat has slacked off a little bit, but I’m going easy on him only because he’s been really busy with law school. But he promises to get back on track this coming week. I’m not going to post my day 30 pics because they’re still pretty embarrassing. Maybe I’ll be ready on day 60.

hardest workout this week: core synergistics
favorite workout this week: kempo X and yoga X (this is hillarious considering i HATED yoga the first week)
30 day milestone: losing 7lbs and being able to do 10 REAL push ups!

Roasted Beet Salad with Ginger Vinaigrette Ingredients 2 beets baby spinach crumbled goat cheese walnuts olive oil balsamic vinegar 1/4 avocado ginger vinaigrette balsamic vinegar olive oil 1 garlic clove 1-2 teaspoon minced ginger root 2-3 tbs chopped chives 1-2 tbs of honey salt pepper I threw this salad together last night after having something similar at a restaurant a few weeks ago. While mine isn’t exactly the same, I must say my version was quite AMAZING. I don’t have exact measurements for all of the ingredients, so my best suggestion is to use your own judgment when adding the oil, balsamic, salt and pepper and use the amount that works for you based on your personal taste. Enjoy! :) Directions - preheat the oven to 400 degrees - cut off beet stems and place beets in baking dish with water then season with the salt and pepper. you can also add oil and balsamic to the water which will enhance the beet’s flavor - cover with foil and bake for about 45 minutes to 1 hour, then cool in pan - peel beets and cut into halves or quarters, depending on size - blend the vinaigrette ingredients in a blender or food processor - add beets, avocado, walnuts and goat cheese to the baby spinach and top with the ginger vinaigrette - consume salad and have your mind blown
