PYGFO Friday

[Tess_ATL]

Hi everyone! I will start us off today. Hope everyone is having a good Friday so far. I did my 2nd run of week six this morning. From here on out it is 25 - 30 minute runs with no walking breaks. I'm ready - bring it on! }( I am feeling so fat today. Uggh. It's weird becase I've been eating clean and not cheating at all and I've gained 3 lbs. It's so discouraging. I feel like a tub of lard. My jeans are tight. Wahhhh!!!

Lara - Funny you should ask about Chuck Norris. My DH and I kind of have an inside joke about him. I just think it's funny how he is supposed to be a total bad ass but if you look at his size, he really isn't that big. It's kind of comical really. When DH needs his butt kicked I always say I'm going to pull a Chuck Norris on him. LOL. Sort of like David Hasselhoff, he thinks he's a legend in his own mind but he's really not, KWIM?? So yeah that's how that got started.

Gin - Wow - 800+ calories? I would have been eating anything not nailed down. You go girl!!

Have a great day girls.

Hi Tess! Last night was just some Barbara Benagh yoga for me. I wanted to do some upper body work, but was still feeling it from GS CT. I will definitely get some bicep/back/shoulder work in tonight.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!!! I will be spending Sunday with the family (all 30 of us). It should be a hoot.

Hi Ladies,

Today was S/H triceps and biceps. I finally finished my SH rotation and will move on to GS for the next few weeks. I am starting to see some definition in the upper body. Can't wait for summer!

Tess - Looking forward to Sunday, although it may just be me and you. Looks like everyone else may be bailing out.
The 3 pounds may be muscle weight. It will all balance out in the end. Just keep on doing what you are doing.

Liann - Have fun with your family. Are you all going to be watching the game?

Gin - Sound like you're turning into a calorie burning machine! I find that I am more thirsty after heavy cardio work as well. I must be sweating it all out!

Have a great day

Carolyn

Good Afternoon PYGFOers!

Today I did Leaner Legs and Abs. 27 degrees was too cold to walk this morning! BRRR!

Tess--LOL about your Chuck Norris dream!! You need to entertain us with your dreams more often! Are they always so wacky and vivid?? AND David Hasselhoff being a legend in his own mind!! BWAHAHA!!:7 :7
I was really not so hungry yesterday after my cardiofest, just thirstier. Of course, I don't seem to lose any weight with it, but I like the endurance cardio. }(

Liann--Enjoy your big family on Sunday. I have never heard of Barbara Benagh yoga. Do you like her?

Carolyn--WTG with the muscle definition! You are doing something right!

Hi Lara and Robin ( hope you are still doing well with the recovery!) and all others!

Gin - I do like her. She has 20 different workouts on each of her DVD's so there are lots of choices. It is more relaxing than an actual "power" yoga workout. The titles are "Yoga for Stress" and "AM & PM Yoga for Beginners". Here's a link:

Carolyn - Yes, we will be watching the big game.

Hi friends. Sorry I've been MIA. I've been spending most of my time on the couch with my leg up. Everything is going fine. I saw the doctor today and he gave me some additional exercises. He told me I can put weight on my leg now and just take my time getting back to my old activities. I have NO PAIN, just tightness and stiffness.

Tess, sounds like your running is going so well. I'm not sure if I'll be able to run again. The doctor showed me a picture of the hunk of cartilage he removed and said I'd have less cushioning now. I may have to do some modifiying.

Liann, have a great time with your family.

Carolyn, have fun this weekend. You can bet if I lived closer I'd be a part of your group.

Hi back Gin. And to any other PYGFOers! Hi!
