The First half of INSANITY

THE FIRST MONTH OF INSANITY IS OVER!! You have no idea how good it feels to say that.  This work out program defiantly has the right name!  
     I havent lost any weight (as with the first month of P90X but I am pretty sure I have been losing inches.  James keeps telling me that my body is "shaped" differently.  I'll have to take his word for it.  I have to say I'm a little frustrated with the  no weight loss part but I actually am really enjoying working out and feeling fit so it's not THAT big an issue right now.  If I don't start shedding soon though I'm going to have to take a good hard look at what I'm taking in(dietary) to see how it can be modified, because there is no way I should be doing this hard of a workout everyday and not seeing some fantastic results.  
     The thing I'm more excited about right now is I am starting to grow some confidence(finally right it took long enough)  I may not be as skinny as some of those gym girls but darn it I can run circles around most of them!  I actually started this week to put together a resume.  Now I initially thought this was going to be a confidence killer, seeing as I have only held one job in the last 10 years, I actually feel accomplished instead.  I feel like it is (my life) moving in the right direction.  I feel totally confident in my decision to apply to gyms in the immediate area.  Like I actually have a chance at it, and as we all know confidence is a great thing to have when applying for a job.  
      Over all things are going well, although I don't know for how long seeing as I lost my most constant workout buddy this week.  He'll be back but I don't know how this week without him is going to go......do I have enough motivation to do this on my own?  Honestly I don't know but it's now or never.  This has forced me to face the realization that Stanley will not always live with me.  There will be a time (and probably very soon) when he will have to spread his wings and fly away from the nest (well the second nest really) and it's going to be difficult for me.  He has been my biggest motivator and cheering section.  Somehow I will have to find the will to go on without him.  It's time to find out how badly I really want this!
     ok so far I have lost  1 inch in my hips, an inch in my chest, and half and inch in my waist.  so over all pretty good but people keep commenting on how different I look so things must be moving around.  I don't know where they are going and at this point I don't really care as long as it stays away!  I'll check in with you guys about a month from now when this Insanity business is over!
