    Workout Warriors Jan 24th - Jan 30th

    Today was a rest day. We got some more snow last night and I was expecting to have to start my commute earlier. Luckily I didn't since I overslept. Feeling tired and blah today and my eating choices have been less than stellar. Janis You might be able to catch on an infomercial on Zumba...

    Workout Warriors Jan 24th - Jan 30th

    Janis, Zumba is a dance class I take at the Y. It has a brazialian(sp?) feel to it. It's a lot of fun and is an hour long. They also have DVD's you can purchase. Donna, have you tried out your kettlebells yet? What do you think? Today I did rounds 1-7 of Kettlebell Your Way volume 1.

    Workout Warriors Jan 17th - Jan 23rd

    Friday I took a rest day due to snow travel. Had to leave home earlier than normal. Today I did Ellen's Fat Burning Pilates workouts. And according to my scale I lost 2 pounds. I'm somewhat in disbelief. The only thing I have done differently is track my foods some days with MyFitnessPal and it...

    MidgetDogg I wouldn't start with Kettlebell Dynamics. It's an okay workout she does 5 reps of a move and then moves on to the next move. I would go with Lauren Brooks volume 1 or Sarah Lurie Iron Core workouts. I like Lauren more then Sarah. Sarah is rather dry but she does give good form...

    Housewives Fans...

    Jerseylicious is another one of my favs. But I can believe it is scripted. I'm sure if they show the housewives just being housewives they are probably not exciting as when they are sliced and diced.

    Workout Warriors Jan 17th - Jan 23rd

    Today I did workouts 1 and 2 of Kettlebell Dynamics and then I did my first Pure Barre workout. Pershing Square 2 and I was begging for mercy. :D I must be doing something wrong with Booty Barre because it doesn't feel like this. Is your supporting leg supposed to feel it more? And the core work...

    Early Risers??

    I am also up around 5/5:30 and in bed around 10:30. The beauty of working out at home is I can do it in my pajamas.:D But I will say this brutally cold winter makes it hard to get in the basement. My basement is not finished so it is cold. I have to layer up. I would probably change those...

    Today I went to Aqua Jogging class at the Y. This is the first time I have ever taken any type of water class. The class was a lot of fun. MJ, the race you signed up for sounds fun. I'm not much of a runner. Last year I ran a 5k and my hips hurt for days afterward. Can't wait to hear about...

    Kim my mammo was quick and simple but definetly longer than 5 minutes. I was expecting it to be painful but it wasn't to bad. Uncomfortable was more like it. They took a front pic and side pic of each breast. My tech was super friendly and had me laughing. Good luck. Jenn

    Nook vs Kindle

    I too have the basic one. I tried to download from the library but couldn't. I got the book on my computer but can't get it to my Nook.

    Nook vs Kindle

    I told my stepdaughter that I will take either. My birthday is a week before Christmas so I'm hoping this is one of my gifts. If my husband takes me shopping I think I'm going with the Nook. I like the free stuff it offers and I can buy or borrow. From what I can tell they are both good.

    So do you pass out the candy or let them choose?

    We hand out the candy. But tonight while out with the kids I noticed people doing both. But my two year old nephew prefers for you to hand him his candy so he can put it in his pumpkin.
