Hi Ladies -- Taking a brief break from the proposal writing. Tomorrow it will be delivered to my client. Did Yoga last night -- the Backbends. Getting better but still unable to do all the moves. It does relieve tension, though, and that's the name of the game. Good for the posture, too...

Hi Ladies -- I'm on break from Proposal development at the moment. My brain is fried. I've been at this since around 7 this am and will be working on it through the evening. No matter what, I'm doing some kind of workout tonight, even if it's just yoga (which is very hard for me)...

Hi Ladies - Well, things didn't go as planned last night. I had planned to work out but my DH needed help on one of his projects so I did that instead. Made up for it tonight with Vol. 1. My DH does that one with me every week. He likes it because it's quick paced without being too...

I blade, too. My DH and I go out about once a week and blade about 15-20 miles round-trip. There's a bike trail near my home, so we don't have to deal with oncoming traffic. I look like a dork, too, but since I'm 45 and way past caring what others think, I get out and enjoy myself! Juli

Hi All -- A quick post before I settle into my "second shift" for the night. I'm working on a proposal for a client so it's like working two shifts -- very stressful. But that's what exercise is for, right? It helps us deal with stress in a healthful way. I plan to do a workout tonight...

Hi Everyone -- A morning post for me today before I start working on my proposal for work. Last night DH and I did Vol. 3. My DH isn't too crazy about that one -- says it's too dancy. He stopped after thirty minutes but I completed the whole thing. Robyn -- Best of luck on your job...

Hi Everyone -- I have just a few minutes before I head out to work. I spent too much time watching the war coverage last night and only did 30 minutes of yoga for my w.o. That counts in one of the boxes for the SELF Challenge but it's less than what I usually do. I guess something is always...

Hi All -- My DH and I changed our minds last night and did Vol. 1 instead of SS. I did the whole tape since I had plenty of time. Tonight I opted for a rest night because it's time to organize things for taxes. It's always my job to add up and categorize all the contributions for the year...

A big Hi to all of the Challengers before I go downstairs and do SS with my DH. Fitdoc, get topic. I am a big believer in exercise. Depression is rampant in my family, but I don't have it. It's as if exercise and the health that accompanies it, has vaccinated me against it. I would like...

Like FS, I'm doing the Self Challenge. I did it last year, too, but the biopsy thing sort of derailed me a bit. I still did 3 workouts a week, but more than that was beyond me. Hopefully, I'll be a better challenger this year. Today, the weather was absolutely beautiful and my DH and I did...

Hi All -- This week is ultra hectic, so it's another short post for me. Fitdoc -- Welcome back! We missed you. Debbie -- So happy to hear everything's ok with the cysts. Robyn -- How did your reunion with the co-workers go? My DH and I did 30 minutes of Vol. 1 this AM. Had to cut...

Whoops! I made a mistake! Janice has the grandbaby instead of Gloria! Is my face red!!!!:+ :+

Hi All -- It's hard for me to post from work, so I'm sending my greetings from home this evening. Gloria -- saw the pics, what a cutie! Debbie -- Isn't the ultrasound a pain???!!! Especially when they want you to drink MORE water! Looking forward to a good report regarding your...

I had a painful plantar wart on the bottom of my foot and visited a dermatologist who treated it with liquid nitrogen. It helped but didn't make it go completely away. After several trips and a still painful wart I finally had laser surgery. I wish I had had the laser in the first place, but...

Just a quick post today as it was a whirlwind weekend and I still have to process my expenses for work before I go to bed. Did KV's Core Essentials tonight. Some interested moves for the abs. A rather short workout -- only 40 minutes but that was the right fit for me today. Waves to...

Hi All -- Just a quick post before I head out for work. Last night did Yoga for Flexibility -- Back Bends. Managed my first Downward Bow. I was so excited!!!I wasn't able to hold the postion for long, or repeat it (it's tiring) but I finally did one! A really busy day. See ya'll later...

Hi All -- An early morning post from me. We were planning dinner at a fancy restaurant for our anniversary but the weather didn't cooperate. Freezing rain here in Cincinnati kept us closer to home -- dinner at our favorite Mexican place. Cheap but good. Works for me. We'll go to the other...

Hi All -- Just a short post since I'm at work. Did Vol. 5 last night. Selected that one because summer's coming and I wanted to the the abs section. It's the best of what I have. Welcome, Amanda. Congrats on being a newlywed. Tomorrow is my 20th wedding anniversary. Really hard to...

I started working out 20 years ago (Jazzercise) to combat stress. I've since added weight training and yoga. Now that I'm 45, I still count on exercise for stress relief, but I've noticed some interesting things -- First, obesity and depression are rampant in my family and I'm completely...

Hi All -- I've been completely DISCOMBOBULATED all week. Did a lot of PROCRASTINATING because I was a bit scared to try a new technique with my serger sewing machine (it worked fantasticly, hard to figure out why I was so intimidated) I haven't worked out all week, the DISCOMBOBULATED...
