STS first time!

[gratefuldog]

I am thinking that they aren't making it anymore. I did a search online. You can only get it from Amazon and they aren't real "stores". Kind of Ebayish.
There is a website listed on the box, but it says its a broken link on Google. THere is a phone number. I will call it tomorrow. Says until 5pm. Let me knwo what your bottle says for a date. I am going to try it anyway. I have nothing to lose!
Time to get the kids to bed.

Well, the Syn-ake bottle says 2009 on it. I wonder if other lotions or serums with the synake peptide in it work too? I've seen other kinds on Amazon but most are more expensive. I liked this one because it wasn't terribly priced and the cream wasn't too heavy or tacky. Crap.

I can't decide what to do today for my workout! I have two non-Cathe workouts I need to de-virgnize but then I was thinking Circuit Blast would be fun...then I was thinking I needed something low impact so Cardio Supersets would be good. I don't think I'll know until I actually go to put something in the dvd player!

Have a great day everybody!

Good Morning! I woke up and did my cardio!!!

Last night, my hubby was on the computer and I watched Biggest Loser!!! Once again, Conda is still there. Maybe next week!!! hahaha

I did Travel Fit last night. It was actually very tough. Does anyone have that DVD? I thought it would be a light activity DVD since it only requires a resistance band, but if you use a medium to heavy band it is very challenging!!!

At work now, check back later. Have a lovely day!

FYI the high step is on Ebay for $42.95 including shipping. Pretty decent price for brand new.
Bummer about the Synake. I am going to use mine anyway.
I went for my run. I can't decide what weight work to do today since yesterday's Les Mills was total body.
Cold and dark today.
Where are you Betty??

Good Morning Ladies. Well I made it thru TBT/LB . There was modifing and no weights. I like the format and the time went by really quick. My heart was racing and I was actually sweating when I was done. I felt like I had done 20 minutes on the elliptical. On the high step lunges , I did high step the first set and low the 2nd set. I thought my heartrate was never coming down after the 1st. set. Then the one where you lay on the floor with your legs on the ball and lift one leg. I had to keep both feet on the ball but I got thru them. My legs are a little shakey now. I will let you know tomorrow how my legs feel. I really think that her other leg dvd's would do more for the legs. I really enjoyed the stretch at the end and then all I wanted was a bath and clean clothes. I am glad that one is over. Tomorrow is cardio supersets. I will preview that again today. I think i can do that one also.

Colleen I think those push ups you were speaking of on the ball are the Elmo style push ups which are in Meso 1.

Missy I fell asleep at the end of TBL so I don't know who went home yet. I will try to catch up today . When I go to bed , I have no problem falling asleep. What kind of Doctor do you work for? I have Travel Fit but I have never done it. I bought a protable DVD to take to my Sister's house so maybe I can start doing that at her house. I am glad you brought that up.

I am really disapointed in the way Cathe is doing the Deal of the day. Today is the 2nd time she has had butts and guts on sale. She also had STS on sale 2 times. I was hoping she would do something different everyday. Oh well , I still have 3 days for her to put my 2 wish list items on sale.

Mar how is STS going? Did you do disc. 2 yet?

Hey everyone,
I'm still here, Carolyn, girlfriend! I'm drooling over your Syn-ake find! I would try it anyway. I hit two TJMs last week, but of course didn't know to look for them! Highly doubt I'd find it anyway. You going to the new Marshalls today? Now that is exciting. No new ones would ever open up around here! When's your Les Mills due to arrive?
Jean, many congrats on doing your legs! Don't worry about having to modify! There are some workouts, like SJP where Cathe is endlessly squatting, that I simply CANNOT finish! Ever! I haven't even tried TBTLB yet! It's a good feeling, your shaky legs, right? BTW, your heart will be thudding and you'll be drenched after CSS tomorrow!
Speaking of Cathe, her KPC deal today is sooo good! I paid $45 for that, I'm sure. That is absolutely one of my faves! It is such a superb kickboxing workout, if anyone likes that! I love KB, but find the Shock Cardio and 4DS ones to be very pale in comparison!
Missy, I have Travel Fit. I don't do it that often, but that's because I only work out 3x a week and I try to pull out ones with cardio & weights. I too think it's an easy one, but then get surprised as I'm doing it.
Colleen, I think I finally found the right replacement contacts! I was getting sooo concerned because I couldn't see up close as well with the two that I had tried so far, Biomedics and Acuvue Oasys (I know!). Yesterday I tried Air Optix, and I can read as well as with my Focus! I'm so thrilled! Also, you don't suppose SNM has added the ability to change one's username yet, do you?? Wouldn't mind keeping my posting history but rolling it into a more anonymous username...
Today was Disc 20 Legs. Didn't enjoy it at all! I couldn't wait to finish, even though it wasn't too long a workout. I just really dislike squats. So many of them! Extended Stretch was a good antidote, as well as for Monday's ch/bis/tris DOMS/tightness. I love stretching, but never do it unless it's in a workout.
Ta ta! Talk soon! Must. Pull. Away.

jean---I work for a 2 physican practice---internal medicine. My docs are very good to us girls, I am honored to work for them. They are very good with patients also. One of them is very into exercise, he rides his bike to and from work. He also, is big into bike riding and swiming. He is a bean pole. But, its funny because ----him and I are always chating about fitness and the other girls ...... well it makes them sick, because they are far from being healthy. I feel working in this enviroment has helped me continue to stay motivated to be healthy. I see to much......If the patients would only open there eyes. But, they want no part of exercise and well being. Its very sad. All they want is pills.

You shouls try Travel Fit. I too have had it for months and had never done it. So last night, I did 30 minutes on my elliptical and then decided to try something new.

I also have a few more DVD's on my wish list...but she hasn't offered them yet. Maybe tomorrow, if not I have plenty to close from.

Oh....My elliptical that I got last week is amazing. It has the IFIT live program on it. And, it is truely amaxing. I competed in a race with it Monday and I was so pumped and it was so fun. It also gives you tons of workouts, that download to you equipment. You can also create maps to workout to. It actually knows the elevations and controls the machine so you are constantly changing resistance to modidy for hills, etc. I am so excited. I told my husband if I stay motivated with this over the next few months I may need to upgrade my treadmill to one that has this program on it. It allows yu to compete with people all around the world. Its amazing!!!

Gotta Go---Be back later.

Jean- Way to work your legs! Missy- I'm jealous of your elip Sounds amazing! Cardio and weights for me today. Then I think I'll treat myself to a pedicure

[maryk]

Hi Everyone,

I did a cardio workout at my work gym today. The room has a full mirror that runs across the front wall, and I was in the front row. I don't normally stare at myself, but I could not help but notice my inner thigh muscles and quads popping out on my legs! STS is really working! So excited, I just had to share.

Jean, keep working those legs!

[cokonkel]

Congratulations on the leg workout Jean!! Way to go! Just remember if your sore tomorrow to smile and think "oh yeah, I worked it!"

I know what you mean maryk about noticing the muscles in the mirror when you work out. It's a pretty great feeling when you see muscles on your butt and thighs instead of the jiggly "f" word! I remember one time about a year ago I wasn't even working out, I was just laying down on the couch and I lifted my leg up (I had shorts on) and I sort of flexed my leg and was totally impressed with myself! Hard work does pay off! I also get pretty happy when I see the muscles in my upper body while working out. Like Betty and Carolyn have said though, I don't notice it as much when I'm not flexing but it is still way better than before, no doubt! I still find the almighty 6 pack abs out of reach though...

I have and do love Travel Fit. I actually have borrowed it to my sister right now because I feel like that would be a really good workout for her to start with (she doesn't currently workout but wants to). It can be really tough with a strong band but you can make it easier if need be. That's why I love it even though I don't use it much...I figure if I ever fall off the fitness wagon that'll be a good workout to get me started back up. Unfortunately my sister has yet to try it and it's been over a month! I don't think I could ever borrow out Lower Body Blast like you did Marie! I would go insane if I didn't get that back in a timely manner! I swear if my sister doesn't use Travel Fit soon I may have to start bugging her to give it back!

Betty you must be trying the Air Optix Multifocal lens! I love that lens and fit it all the time! Here's a little hint/tip...not to take business away from your eyedoctor but if what they charge is really expensive for the boxes (my company just raised the price and I think it's too much) then check out WalGreens.com. I believe they are selling it for around $68 a box which is pretty much our cost price and the cheapest I've ever seen it. Once the contact fitting is concluded you could get a copy of your contact lens prescription and order it from there. Of course, if the price isn't too bad at your doctor's then go ahead and get it from them...I feel bad already taking his/her business away!

Oh and I don't think you can change your username unless you re-register with a new email account. I wanted to use eyefit but I messed up, and yet I was too lazy to be bothered with opening a different email account just to do that! I've had my email account for a good 12 years already! No need to get a new one!

Later girls!
