Good Morning Beauties:)

Did everyone have a good day yesterday? Mine was o.k but once again I couldn't find anything that I wanted to eat but I had to eat so I had:
M1-Banana
M2-Oatmeal
M3-ww Bun,chicken breast,tomatoe
M4-ice cream:9 hahahaha
M5-egg and toast

I went to bed last night at 9:30 b/c I was so tired! And I woke up before the alarm went off. I looked through my workouts and although I was going to run for 30 mins, I changed my mind and I am going to do the viper.I haven't done any weight work lately.But it will be easier once I am off on Mon and Tues.I am also going to try to make up a new rotation for myself.Not b/c I am expecting to see any gains, but b/c I want to make sure I don't neglect a body part.

Everyone have a good day and I will be around.I am working all weekend and the airport is pretty boring on weekends!

Good morning, Lori - Good girl, you need to make sure and feed that baby even if you aren't hungry. :)

I am going to be at a health and safety jamboree at the school I work for, I'm putting on a walk beforehand through the streets to help make people aware of it going on. But, the weather is not cooperating at all - it's about to rain. Oh well.....nothing I can do about that. :)

Not sure what I'm doing for a workout today, I'm kind of in a rut before I start training for the 1/2 marathon nothing really appeals to me, so i need to get moving somehow. Maybe I'll go hiking or something.

Take care everyone and have a great weekend.

Hey Ladies,
I just couldn't wait till Monday to weigh myself. I've lost 3 pounds this week since monday. I'm so excited. I just cut out all the crap and mindless munching. Even though at whole foods yesterday, they had oatmeal raisin cookie samples yesterday (whole cookies!) I got one for my son, but he didn't want to touch it. So I ate it, no biggie. Then after dinner I had 1 chocolate chip cookie, but I knew I was only going to have 1, normally I would eat like 10 of them. Then I walked over to my friends house to drop something off. I walked at a fast pace and it took about 45 min(there and back). Also my new Turbo Jam Maximum Results DVD's came yesterday. I just could not wait, so I did Cardio Party 3 last nite. OMG!!!!It was so much fun! I loved it, and I was dripping with sweat!!! I highly recommend it. So today is my rest day, because tomorrow I will be getting my TurboKick Certification and I will be working out a lot. Yeah! I'm so excited!!!!!!
Have a great weekend everybody!!!

Top 'O' The Morning To Ya, Challengettes!!!

Lori - Hope you don't have to put too difficult of a day -- sounds like it might not be -- do you have your vitamins yet? Have a great day!

Marcia - A hike sounds like fun - it is a rainy day here for me though - I was hoping to get outside this weekend but it looks like the rain is going to stay and I can't complain about that because later we will be begging for it! Have a good day!

Sheila - I have not pulled out P90X in a long time - I am contemplating it though, sometimes I cannot decide what to do! Hope your weekend goes well and good luck in the game. I used to play until year before last - I play catcher. I am getting old and my eyesight was so bad in the park that I got hit in the chest during practice - took months for it to heal and my DH says ---"Find a game with a bigger ball!!!" LOL

Karen - Yoga feels so good, I used to be able to work it in daily but now only about once a week - enjoy your day!

Nycmamacita - Congrats on your pounds lost! Fantastic! That will start your weekend off right! I love the Turbo Jams - I have them all and I can get intense enough with them for the Heart Rate to rival Cathe workouts - they are a blast, the cardio ones anyway, I haven't really done the toning ones but I may.

I am still a bit worn out but I got up and did Supersets, I did not do my add on band circuit - just a little too tired but I am feeling good after breakfast and hope to get some cardio in later.

I am looking forward to a fun and peaceful weekend! Hope you get the same!
 
Good Morning!

Yesterday was a really weird day. I couldn't muster up enough energy to make it through my workout and I ate three bowls of low-carb cereal. yuck... x(

Today I will run outside. Okay, maybe..... it's raining. Yes, I will run today... Ever feel like your talking to yourself? LOL

Anyway- I hope everyone has a great weekend.
:D
 
HI Girls!

Gayle, I am a runner and I have never really trained for anything or been involved in anything..so does that actually make me a runner? LOL:) But when this baby pops out I think I am going to train for something.I don't know what, but I think that I will regret not doing it later in life, b/c I know I can!
SO good luck on your run and have a good one.Tie your shoes in a double knot...no tripping up! LOL

Ali, good job on the 3 lbs down! Good girl. I am down 2.6 lbs since we started over a week ago.And I am not even sure how that happened.I have been less hungry lately but thats o.k.

Marcia, have a good day. Did you weigh in at WW this week? If so how did it go? I may have missed your post.
I know I have to eat even though I don't want to. My body is doing alot right noe so it needs proper food. And you never know, in a couple of weeks I may not feel as good as I do right now so I better eat while I can!

Kathy, I started taking my vitamins the day after I found out. I totally forgot to take them that day! To much excitment I think. I stopped taking folic acid though b/c I would have been taking it for 4 yrs by now...sort of got tired of taking that. My friend says I should be o.k though b/c I eat healthy anyway.

I did 3 seg of the viper today and I am going to get out for a walk tonight. I have to do something b/c this job is low key and I could pack on some seriuos pounds if I don't move when I am off of work.

Hello to everyone else!

12-Week Check-in

I woke up to a dark and cloudy day. I could tell that a wave of depression was threatening to wash over me. Thankfully, Rhythmic Step was on my rotation (followed by the abs and planks from Power Hour). Fun, fun, fun! :7 Working out with Cathe makes my heart smile! :7 I am feeling better now, but I am still emotional. I am planning to go visit my family 6 weeks from today, and that is always an emotional journey. I need to start preparing my heart now.

My eating is not going according to plan today. I have been running around all morning, I started my workout late this morning, and I am just now eating my breakfast. I definitely did not plan to “fast” this morning.

Blessings,
Heather B.

RE: 12-Week Check-in

Hello to all.

this morning I got up and decided to try MIS (one of the news that came on Thursday). Great workout, but now this afternoon I am exhausted. I didn't eat breakfast and so I think I ate too much at lunch. I had a banana, a soft torilla with chicken and cheese and then some tortilla chips. I should have passed on the chips or at least counted how many. So tonight I need to eat a good salad. So salad, salad salad it will be. Like someone posted earlier, we have to talked to ourselves til.

Hope everyone has a great weekend. Tomorrow I think I will will do step.

Lori, are you having morning sickness or just not hungry. Either way, try to make sure you're eating enough. When I was pregnant(in ancient egyptian times LOL-20 years ago) I had morning sickness(all day sickness really) and dropped to 96 lbs during the first months and felt horrible, but I finally started to eat and gain. I did really well by not gaining too much. I weighed about 102 when I got pregnant and weighed 134 when I delivered. The day I left the hospital I weight 111. Man what I would give to weigh that again.

Hey Everyone! Today I did CTX Kickbox to end the first week of my CTX rotation. I can tell I really need my rest day tomorrow!

My meals for today:

1. Go Lean cereal + blueberries, flaxseed, sunflower seeds, soy milk; grapefruit juice
2. muesli cereal + soy milk, 2 boiled eggs (whites only)
3. Tuscan Chicken & White Bean soup, 2 rye crispbreads
4. chicken , 1/2 slice 100% ww bread, light havarti cheese
5. cottage cheese

Lost .8 lbs this week, and I started pms'ing (read: bloat!) a few days ago so I think that's pretty good!!
