If that is what you mean, no, I didn't follow that diet. I eat a high amount of raw plant food. It will be interesting to see what my results were. I know if I stayed on the raw path exclusively, I would be seeing tremendous results. Hi Carolina,

Do you mean the P90X suggested diet? If that is what you mean, no, I didn’t follow that diet. I eat a high amount of raw plant food.

It will be interesting to see what my results were. I know if I stayed on the raw path exclusively, I would be seeing tremendous results.

I love those "Hortonisms".... "...here's Dreya, she flies through the air with the greatest of ease..." "...put your legs up...to-GE-ther!" "...I got a crack...I got a crack!..." "...they're working hard, I know you are!" "...If you need a break, TAKE it!" "...touch them toes..." "...I hate it, but I love it..." "There ain't no part 1 and part 2, this is part 2." When we all do Ab Ripper x the kids have the whole routine down "nobody move! Let me show the folks the form!" they'll all say at the same time, it's so funny! That was a funny one, wasn’t it? I love those “Hortonisms”….

“…here’s Dreya, she flies through the air with the greatest of ease…”

“…put your legs up…to-GE-ther!”

“…I got a crack…I got a crack!…”

“…they’re working hard, I know you are!”

“…If you need a break, TAKE it!”

“…touch them toes…”

“…I hate it, but I love it…”

“There ain’t no part 1 and part 2, this is part 2.”

I do think (and should have added) that for some people the diet is a step up from the main-stream fast food processed and packaged diet but it's still sorely lacking some important nutrients. Interestingly, I've noticed during the famous 'pot-stirrer' exercises Tony Horton always comments on dairy-free soups. Makes me wonder about his diet. Right on.

OK, I'm all for plenty of protein, but am appalled at the amount of animal protein and the avoidance of whole grains. Good heavens, when we first started my husband freaked out over a garbanzo bean salad... too many carbs!! I said that if I couldn't eat beans/grains etc, just shoot me now. Obviously, we're no longer strictly following 'the diet'. And we're still losing weight and gaining muscle. All without any of the recovery drinks or sups. I’ve really struggled with the diet.

It is a lot like Amway. As with most MLM’s about 20% of the people joining do it well and 20% of them do it exceedingly well. It is a lot like Amway.

The one thing where I consistently fail is that I probably don't "Bring it". Especially in the beginning, coming from a ZERO fitness level, I didn't want to be so miserable that I quit. So I started very light... I'm doing 17s for biceps... Which I actually don't have... I hold a 15 and a 2lb ankle weight stetched over it. :) The pushups impress me to pieces, especially since 'back in the old days" I was a US Marine and I'm not sure I could do 22 then either!
