    Almost DIED on my 8" stepper!!

    RE: Almost DIED on my 8 Maybe you should consider doing 1/2 the work wiht 8 inch and last 1/2 with 6 inch of vice versa. I rarely use my 8 inch and I have been doing Cathe for years. There are a few workouts that I can use it with. I do IMAXes and Body Maxes alot and there is no way I can do...

    Holy moly--Body Max 2!!

    BM2 is my most used workout. The step combos are so much fun and is an awesome and tough workout. I have never done the entire workout and probably will never do it. I may choose the upper body section along with pyramid down of PUB the next day.

    Ate breakfast and didn't get a chance to eat lunch. Strange thing is that I felt fine all day and then all of a sudden I was sick. I guess a virus just hit me. My son was ill a few days ago. I just got over a virus a couple of a weeks ago. I can' take this. Fitfairy, we decided on a 58...

    Today was PUB down only. Truly my favorite workout. Eating was good yesterday. I did have a small piece of cake celebrating a co-worker who is moving away.

    WOW-----I don't check in for a week and come back to more people! What have I missed! Fitfairy and Rose, the basement is finished...just a few more things to do, but nothing to prevent me from working out. TTOM now so I have been dragging the last few days. I walked 30 minutes on the...

    Rose, I am glad that interviewing is going well. You must appreciate the fact that company one was very honest about the job being stressful, demanding and requires long hours. The idea of people leaving in a matter of months scares me. Will the job always be that way or is it just like that...

    We don't usually do anything special for V-day. It was the typical take the kids to sports practice, etc. I did enjoy 1 piece of small chocolate and it was good. Rose, I am glad you are doing well with your one cheat day. Fitfairy, I hope your DH feels better soon. No verdict on the...

    Today was 30 minutes on the treadmill. Walking will be my form of exercise until I get back to my usual space.

    ((((((((((No Sweets Week of Feb 10))))))))))

    I walked on the treadmill for 45 minutes this morning. I managed to make my way to it. Fitfairy, we have been working on a basement a little bit at a time over the last few years. The plan was for me to have my own workout space. However, DH purchased this huge used weight machine (got it...

    I think we are learning toward the DLP. I like the fact that they come in larger screens. They are much lighter than the old ones, so that gets DH to take a look at them too. I have done quite a bit of reading lately so hopefully we will make a decision in the next month. The basement should be...

    Hello Ladies. Sorry for not posting lately. I had a Klondike bar today and it was so good. We are still in the process of finishing our basement. We are on a budget, so the last few days we have been trying to decide on the final details. We started on the basement a few years ago doing a...

    Fitfairy, no that one piece of chocolate doesn't count. You should actually get a reward at the end of the week of getting rid of all the temptations at the office. HAHA. Rose, I am so glad that your back stretcher is helping. I applaud you for hiding the icecream. The weather here was 70...

    ((((((((((No Sweets week of Feb 3rd))))))))))

    Rose, I need that strategy to. One cheat day a week will definitely make things so much better for me. I am awake this morning, but just too tired to exercise. I didn't get to bed until late and eating was not good yesterday. Well, meals were good, but I had 2 sugar cookies and one was before...
