Good morning girls,

I'm going to the gym to spin today. I also need to run some errands. I'm so happy it's Friday too:)

Belinda - I hope you're feeling better today. Pop in and let us know.

Amelia - Sounds like a good workout and have fun walking your dog.

BBL, Hi to everyone who follows!!
 
Howdy girls!

Where's Belinda?? I hope you're doing better sweetie. I didn't have a chance to post yesterday but I did a quick scan and saw that you might be checking in to a clinic. Hope things get better FAST!

So, how are the rest of you doing?? We've got great weather here in the northeast and tomorrow (my bday:)) is expected to reach 73:) My workout today was D6. It's the first leg weight work I've done in about 2 or 3 weeks. I still can't believe that I am still in Mesocycle 1:confused: I've decided not to start over anymore. If I have to take a break for an injury or some other reason I will pick up where I left off otherwise I may never know what Meso 2 or 3 is like!! Plus, I'm getting antsy to do a FF rotation...I especially like her Get Ready for Summer 2006 (or 2007??) rotation.

Amelia - What happened to your trip to the tanning salon?? I remember you mentioning it to Lori a couple of weeks ago. Sounds like you've got a great wo planned for today. Enjoy!

Deb - Hey there! Enjoy this great weather while running those errands;). Have fun at the gym, too.

Cookie - Howdy! The family is doing pretty well now. During the last two weeks my 2YO had a stomach virus that had her vomitting for a few days. Then DH got it and finally I had food poisoning...AGAIN!! The girls were also out of school during the last two weeks which made the child care situation a challenge. Hopefully everything is back to normal starting monday and I can get back on track with my wos. I hate to say I'm back in my bigger pants:( I think I can drop the extra inches in 2-3 weeks though, so I'm not really sweating it;)

Allrighty ladies, enjoy the rest of your day and have a great weekend!
 
Good morning!
Belinda, hope you're out on a dog walk and not at the clinic. Sending healing vibes your way.
Amelia, I've done 4ds a lot this week as well. Only, I forgot about those butt kicks over the step in BC. Must be like childbirth - want to forget the pain. Think I'm going to add in LIS after doing sts today. Just spent a bundle of money on another Invisible Fence collar and battery plan updates for the dogs! Apparently DH didn't reorder the plan for the golden and she's been roaming all over the place. One of the little dogs took off yesterday for hours and apparently was dancing in the middle of 55-mph road! He's getting a collar with crowns on it since he's the dancing king.
Trish, missed you. Happy birthday a day early, just in case you don't check in tomorrow. Trust me, I've got all of you in that department. What are you going to do to celebrate? You'll love meso 2. Can't believe today's my last disc in that set. That will definitely sweat it off you. Hope all the illnesses have passed. I really dislike when worklife interferes with my workouts! Glad next week is a "rest" week, since it will be a busy one work-wise.
Deb, isn't the weather great? TG, since I spent about 4-5 hrs yesterday out looking for the two wanderers! Has your MIL been seen by a doctor? It is really difficult. I have a baby shower in two weeks. Actually twin nieces who are having babies a couple of weeks apart. Weird don't cha think?
Spent time reading The Food You Crave by Ellie Krieger! Planned out a good-size shopping list and menu for the week. Almost can't wait to cook. But have to drive to the store, get the groceries, put them in a cart, put them on conveyor, load them in car, drive home, unload, and pay for it all first. That's the part that tires me out and then I lose interest in cooking. At least I am able to do it. Oh well, off to last disc in meso 2.
Cookie
 
Woohoo!! Cookie you are doing so well with your workouts. What kind of changes have you noticed since starting STS? I don't feel like I've given it a good shot with all of my interruptions. I'm not sure yet what we will do for my bday. We had plans to go to dinner with friends but their infant twins are coming down with colds so we'll meet up next week. And, even though it's my bday, I still have all of my mother-to-do stuff to do (dance in the morning, DD bday party in the afternoon, laundry, grocery shopping, etc.). Hopefully, I will just get a few hours to sleep;)!

So, what are you planning to cook up? My diet has kind of stalled. I need some new ideas:)

Enjoy your rest week next week.
 
Oh man,im a sweaty mess:confused: my workout is done. did 4DS KB+Legs,core and then jumped on the treadmill for a mile. Burned 668cals...Awesome:).

Trish- Happy Birthday....you guys doing anything special? About the tanning salon...it just hasn't happened yet. Everytime i think about going I start getting busy with somehting around the house and just forget:rolleyes:. Im really going to try and go this evening..wish me luck! Im so white:confused: Do you like pulled pork sandwiches? i made a really simple bbq sandwich the other day(put 2tbs of bbq sauce on mine,not too bad in cals) put a boneless pork loin in the crock pot on low for 8hrs,then it basically falls apart as you stredd it...OMG...its delish! I used Amy's bbq sauce and it wasn't to bad in calories. I ate a salad with it.

Cookie-Scary about your little dog running off into traffic..im glad he's back and safe now. LOL at him 'dancing'. Im going try and start walking cassie agian,aleast three days a week...im stuck at home without a car now(our car isn't working,just the one vehicle now:confused:) so i need to get out of the house in the evenings before i strangle someone! Have fun with Meso 2....

Debbie-enjoy your spin class and errand running:) TGIF!

Hey Amelia - Nice calorie burn today!! Means you can have a little extra pizza if you want :p I don't eat pork or beef, but that soundwich does sound yummy! I need to put together some recipes to cook for the week. Haven't used my crockpot in a month or so. Maybe I should pull it out;) Good luck with getting a little color tonight:D Oh, and no plans yet for my bday. I'd really like to go out for some indian food, but we'll see how the day develops.

Hi girls,

I went to the ENT doctor this morning; I couldn’t sleep all night long. My nostrils are completely blocked. He took an ultrasound from my sinus; he said there isn’t any improvement since Monday. He wanted to do another nose rinse (were he brakes to the bone in my nose and flush the infection out) I just had it done a week ago! I told him no way I let him do that again, lol! He put some meds in both my nostrils, which helped for a few hours. Now my left side is blocked again.He told me to come back in 5 day, when I am done with the penicillin. He strongly advised me to see a dentist, because the infection isn’t going away and sometimes is related with an infected tooth or gum. After coming home from the ENT, I called the dentist on base and told them I had an infection in sinus (sinusitis) for the last 3 weeks. They told me to come in right away and a doctor will take a look. They took x-rays, checked out my teeth and gums, he couldn’t find anything wrong with me (I haven’t seen a dentist in over a 1 ½ years, lol) he also had a specialist take a look at my teeth and gums just in case he missed something. They really took care of me! The both said my teeth and gums are healthy. Now I almost wished I had something wrong with my teeth, than knowing he ENT has to go in my nose with this giant needles again. I am praying for a miracle by Monday, I don’t want to get surgery. I haven’t slept longer than 2 hours a night for the last 3 week; this is definatly taking a lot out of me. DH is coming back from the states tomorrow, thank goodness! Why isn’t the infection going away? I am doing everything the doctors give or tell me!

I am sorry, I know this getting old. I know you all getting tired of reading the same old thing and really noting is changing.


Take care,
 
Hi girls,

I'm back from the gym & running errands. I need to find some energy to finish putting groceries away & maybe wash some windows:( My DH told me to call some one in. I did a few years ago, and it was around $500 (lowest quote too)! I could be buying more fitness things with that money;)

Belinda - Don't be silly, we're all worried about you. I just feel so bad for you. I can't imagine how you are feeling. Honestly keep us posted and our thoughts are with you:)

Trish - Beautiful weather today and tomorrow for your birthday!!! Hopefully you'll get to do something fun. Sorry to hear about your food posioning, how do you tell the difference from a virus or food posioning?

Cookie - That must have been so upsetting when your dogs were missing. We have an invisible fence too but haven't used it in years since Simba is over 12. When my boys were younger and playing outside off our property, she would take the shock just to be able to play:eek: I agree it's the shopping & cleaning up that's the worst part about cooking.

Amelia - That sandwich does sound so good. I too don't eat pork, but I may try that with chicken. I love to use the crock pot. Yesterday, when people were looking at the house, I had chicken chili in the crock pot. I wonder what they thought of the smell in the house, my DH joked and said maybe they sampled some:rolleyes:
 
Belinda - ((((Big Hugs)))) I hope you have a resolution soon. I can only imagine how you must be feeling. And I know you are dying to get back to working out;) Have you done any research on your own? Get well soon.

Deb - Your DH is funny:) To be honest, I can't really tell the difference between food poisoning and a stomach virus. My symtpoms were different from my DD and DH so I didn't think it was the virus and they seemed more similar to my last bout of food poisoning. But, I really could have had the same thing! What do you have planned for the weekend? As weird as it sounds, I enjoy washing windows. We have the kind that flip in and something about it is enjoyable to me. I'm a WEIRDO!!
 
Morning! I meant to make this thread a weekend thread!

I got my extra cardio in last night, took cassie girl for a walk,she had a great time...it was nice and cool too!

ok,im up early to get ready for work,blahhhhhh, the good news is tommorrow i get to sleep in late:D

Were taking the kids fishing today. Were gonna stop by subway and bring it to the lake.(which will be the majority of my carbs for the day:rolleyes:)

Debbie-chicken chilie sound good! I bet your house smelled fantastic! Ya know,i didn't even think about trying that bbq sandwich with chicken....i will try that next! This week im making three bean soup with the crock pot....mmmmm delish,and healthy too!

Trish-I called around to different tanning salons and there price's were just a little bit out of my estimated price range:confused: Im going to start laying in the sun sunday...i figure a couple of hours a day until we hit the beach next month should do the trick. And i will save money too...Happy Birthday girly:) I hope you have a fantastic day!!!!

Belinda- Please don't think twice about posting in here! Ive been checking in with you for years now...i wanna know how your doing...who cares if you don't have a workout to report, let us know how your doing...ok,pretty please!:) HUGS TO YOU!


Have a great day girls. Today is my rest day!

Happy Birthday, Trish! Hope you had a wonderful day.
Belinda, glad your dh is back. How are you doing now?
Deb, gee now I feel like I should have done some windows. I love how they look when done. How are your legs?
Amelia, hope the kids caught some fish. Are you going on vacation next month? Don't know how I missed that - sorry. I knew you wanted to tan. Since one of my brothers has had two bouts of skin cancer, I just use Jergens for color.
Did KPC! Love it. But hate those pikes.
Cookie
