Commit to get fit and lean for May 19, 2009

Hi ladies,

Off to the doctor! BBL!
 
Hello, sorry to hijack your thread but Belinda I just was wondering where you live. You're always posting your check-in early (like me) and I'm in France... I get the impression you're close! :)

Have a great day!

Guess I could have answered my own question by looking at your scree name more closely! We're practically neighbors! Are you with the military?

We're over here with CAT for 3 years... quite an adjustment but awesome experience. We're talking our 2 girls (3&4) to Paris on Thursday, going to Barcelona this summer, and hoping to do lots lots more!

Hi Angie,

Have a great day and take care,

Hi Angie, I am German! I was born and raised in Nuernberg/Germany! I met my DH 26 years ago,while he was stationed in Nuernberg. He is still in the Army. We moved to Grafenwoehr in 2007. Barcelona is very nice, we went there in 2004. Lot's of Sangria:p How do you like living in France? DH and I went to France a few times. It's only a few hours away from Germany. Love the food. What is CAT stands for? Are you planning on seeing Germany too? There is so much to see and so little time! Are you taking your kids to Disney? Lot's of nice shopping and of course lot's of nice places to see.

Take care,

I went to get a gym membership yesterday. The manager took me on a tour around the building. He handed me a clipboard with some papers to fill out. Then told me to the total for today....he didn't mention anything on the phone about a startup fee,100 dollar startup fee...WTH? I asked him if her remembered me calling the other day(im sure he could tell i was kinda pissed) and he played dumb:rolleyes: I told him that he should of mentioned a startup fee on the phone and it would of saved us both alot of time:mad: What an ass.

so anyway, all that trouble for nothing.:rolleyes:

Todays workout is Legs and abs...ugh! bbl

Belinda-Great job with your walking...have you noticed any changes in the scale since you started walking more/ using tubing ?

Morning Angie:)
 
Good Morning!:)

O.k....I have to start getting better at checking in;) For some reason, ever since we came back from holidays I am having trouble finding the time to check in...which is totally weird for me.:confused: Im also having trouble fitting my weight workouts in!:mad:

Im starting to feel better but I know I am going to have good days and bad days for the next little while. We went to a friends cabin on Sun night for the night, so that night was good cause the dogs wouldn't have been there anyway. Everytime I go out into the garage though I want to throw up:eek:

I managed to do a 50 mins run yesterday and STS disc 4. Im going for another run later today but first, we have this ceremony to go to. My BIL is in the military and he is getting promoted. His boss his leaving and he is taking his position. They have this big change of command ceremony, tonight we have dinner and then on sat night they are having a big ripper:eek:

We also showed our house yesterday and the people who looked at it are coming back for another look today:eek: Can you imagine if they put in an offer? We don't even know where we are going! LOL

Belinda** How is your nose??? clearing you any? Good job getting your walk in!I think DD and I are taking the dog for a walk later today. He isn't good on a leash but since the other dog as passed away I am surprised at how good the younger dog is!

Ameila** Oh man....I would have been soooo ticked! To bad he couldn't wave the fee for you. He probably thought that if he didn't mention it, you would just go along with it. Oh well...stick to your cathe workouts;)

I will try to come back later but it may be tough with the day I have going on. I may have time to check in after my run!

BBL!

Hi girls,

I walked 3 miles this morning with my dogs and after lunch I walked another mile to the grocery store. My plan is to walk the dogs again tonight and do some yoga or stretching. Tomorrow I will do UB + LB (40 min.) from Total Body Scalping. I did the DVD as is on Monday, it was to short for me. I didn’t get a good enough leg workout in.

Amelia, I have an appointment with a specialist in June. I only picked up my paper works. They took blood tests yesterday, they go to Landstuhl. Not sure when the results are in? I will call Friday and find out. I would be disappointed too! Would have been nice for him to tell you upfront! That’s a lot of money for a startup fee, especially now with the economy. At least you have you workout DVD’s and TM. You really don’t need a gym. Enjoy your workout today. No changes in the scale. I am still doing good.

Lori, (((HUGS)) poor thing! Glad you had fun this weekend. It takes time to get back into your old routine. WTG, on your run and disc 4 yesterday. Have fun with the change of command ceremony tonight. Congrats to your BIL! What rank is he?
Don’t sell you house if you don’t even know where to go, silly!
Thanks for asking, my nose is still stuffed. I feel like I have a never ending cold. My headaches are a different story. I have a giant one every day and all day long. Have fun with your dog walk later.

Hi Debbie, Cookie and Trish:eek:

Hey Belinda,

France is good - there are HUGE adjustments for us here but I keep reminding myself of the great opportunity. CAT is Caterpillar, Inc (think big yellow construction equipment). We've been here 6 months on a 3 year assignment. Our daughters are in French school which is quite interesting and I am taking French lessons and learning slowly but surely!

We are planning a trip to Germany for sure. Next on my "have to see" list is Austria! I really want to go to Salzburg (grew up watching Sound of Music).

We have season passes to Disney and go A LOT! Our girls are at the prime age for it and absolutely love it! We are actually going this Friday. Spending the day in Paris on Thursday too!

So fun to find another European around here! Is there a chance you'll ever move to the states (I assume your DH is in the US Army?).

Nice to "meet" you!

Have a great day fit and lean people!

:)Belinda** Im not sure what rank my BIL is. He is a pilot with the serach and rescue so he head over that...I guess he is still a major? I dunno! LOL The people that are looking at our house again, are also looking at 3 other houses today. They also have a peice of land that they intended to build on but they are in the military so I guess they are choosing to buy. If they buy our house, there is a good chance we will buy their land! LOL

Must get ready for my run!

Hey girls,just popping in to report my workout! did 4Ds legs and then some core work. I really burned my upper abbs good. Maybe i will feel it tomorrow:);)

Lori-Great workout yesterday and have a great one today! Congrats to your BIL on his promotion,that must be exciting for him!

Hey to Debbie,Trish,Cookie and Belinda

Have a good day,gotta get some house work done and help my sister on her resume. We have a mechanic coming out to look at the car later ,cross your fingers that the quote he gives won't cause me to faint:eek:;)
 
Hi girls,

So tired today. I went to MMA/kickboxing class today. I also have so much work to catch up on. I'll be driving a lot this week and next. I'm happy to be back the weekend was fun. My male cousins were teasing me because my Mom and Aunts were treating me like I was 10 yrs. old. They were so protective of me, as if someone were going to kidnap me (LOL):D

One of my 82 yr. old Aunts does Gilad on Fit TV everyday! She even has 3lb. weights:D

Belinda - I hope everything goes well with the Dr.'s. Are they also trying to find out why you have so many headaches? Great job in getting so much walking in:)

Amelia - Wow, $100 sounds high. I have a feeling they do that at some of the gyms I am looking at too. Maybe he'll call you back and wavier the fee if you join. The B&B was decorated mostly with antiques and had a country feel.

Lori - Will you still live close to your SIL & Sister? Have fun at the dinner tonight. I know what you mean about getting in the swing of things after holiday:)

Hi to Cookie, Trish & Angie
 
'Evening!
Belinda, glad you're able to get your dog walks in. How are you feeling otherwise? What kind of dr are you going to see?
Lori, I must have missed something. Why are you selling your house? Enjoy the celebration and dinner.
Amelia, I would be so aggravated with that guy. I know you were looking so forward to joining too. Working out at home is good for me - if I have to drive anywhere it wouldn't happen at all. How's the car?
Deb, I'll probably be that way with my daughter! Gosh, I just enjoy and love her so much, I can't stand the thought of something happening. Are you the youngest? I'm from a big family, so there was no being protective. Why do you have so much driving to do?
Yesterday my allergies were bothering me so much I just went to bed after dinner. Did my last disc of plyo legs tonight. There's even a difference in how high I can jump. Am trying to decide if I want to do it over again or do the undulating one.
Sleep well.
Cookie
 
Night, night

Hi Ladies,

Just a quick check in before heading to the shower and bed. I got to sleep late last night and overslept this morning:confused: This evening I decided to try something different for my cardio. I did Crunch Fat Burning Pilates. It was different and fun. I didn't burn too many calories (about 250 in 40 mins), but it was nice to get off the elliptical. I will probably work in some other low impact cardio into my rotation. Not sure what work out is on the schedule for tomorrow, but I will likely do it at night since I am up late again!

I should be able to catch up on personals tomorrow. So, til then....
