    Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Friday Dec 21

    Dallys - Sheesh! I get so confused on who has what equipment. :P Well, you're gonna have to turn it up a notch nonetheless. I'm glad it's getting easier for you. That means you're workin' it! I actually used a big, fat curling iron. It took about 45 minutes and that was AFTER my hair was already...

    Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Friday Dec 21

    Good morning! This morning I will be doing CC - I think #7. I need to burn some major calories. My stomach is a mess from all the junk I've been shoving in my pie hole. I think my body is going to have a breakdown soon! Lora - You were hardly a slacker! You still got in a nice workout...

    Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Thursday Dec 20

    Good morning! I think today will be CC. Don't act so surprised! I'm going to try to finish my Vogue top first. I didn't finish it last night. The cuffs took me longer than I anticipated since I got sidetracked with cherry pie. :9 Okay, so here's a question for ya'll. What do you keep your...

    Hardcore Fitrness Maniacs for Wed Dec 19

    Penney - You've been working really hard! Way to go!!! Diane Sue - I'm sure I've mentioned this before, but have you ever tried Airborne to help ward off a cold? It's that stuff that was started by a school teacher since she was around kids all the time. A few of us in our office use it if...

    Marietta - HEY GIRL!!!!! So good to see you! We miss you a ton around here. Wish you could visit us more. But we understand. Doesn't make us happy though. :( You are so hardcore and such a motivation. I hope you can pop in every now and then just to let us know how you're doing. I hope you have...

    Hardcore Fitrness Maniacs for Wed Dec 19

    Hey Everyone! Today I finally did that Step Reebok Power workout. That was one of my first introductions into step aerobics so it was kinda fun. Such basic choreography. My HR only got up to 174 once, which we know for me is not too high, but it was in the 160's most of the time after I got...

    Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Monday Dec 17

    Dallys - It's our age woman! I've noticed the same thing in the last couple of years. It all of a sudden got harder to drop weight than it used to be. Yeah, where's Penney??? Suz "Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened." - Anatole France...

    Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Monday Dec 17

    Dallys - Don't forget that with P90X you're lifting heavier so you're going to be putting on more muscle (you know that's the favorite thing to tell people when they aren't losing weight). But...when I went on BFL a number of years ago, the scale didn't budge until the 8th week. And that's...

    Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Monday Dec 17

    Diane Sue - Glad you're okay! Nice to have you back. I'm so happy you didn't lose your power. Isn't that weird that you have yours and your neighbors don't. I guess it has to start and stop somewhere. How sad for them. Thank goodness for cell phones. And I knew that no matter what, you'd be...

    Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Monday Dec 17

    Hey Ladies! Well, so far no workout for me today. I swear DH is such a bad influence when we're on vacation. I need to get up before he does and work out. He tells me "Just enjoy your vacation. Go sew. Have fun!" Silly man! Not what you tell someone who is unmotivated anyway!!! Since he wants...

    Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Sat Dec 15

    Hi Ladies! This morning I did CC#7 again. I know, I'm in a rut. I was going to do an old Step Reebok workout, but I wanted a really good calorie burn since we were going to the Macaroni Sin Palace today. :) I was watching Fox News earlier and they were showing Oklahoma City and saying...

    One of the happiest and saddest days of my life today

    Jerry, I just wanted to send you lots of hugs and prayers in your journey. I'm so happy that you have found a wonderful place for her and that she was so willing to make the move. My dad's wife just died of Alzheimer's this past Sunday. They were married for 35 years. He's completely...

    Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Friday, Dec. 14th

    Good morning! Wow - MAJOR DOMS in my legs - everywhere - quads, hammies, glutes. Also my chest, bis. I'm pretty happy. I'm going to do some cardio later. Not sure what. I'm actually thinking of maybe Rhythmic Step for fun. Nothing terribly taxing b/c I don't know if my body can take it! :)...

    Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Thursday, Dec. 13th

    Just finished Power Hour. Since I haven't worked legs in awhile and I kept the weights the same as I always do on that workout my legs were SHAKING from the beginning. I should have great DOMS. My bi's were burning too. We'll see what tomorrow brings. And no cardio. Aren't you all proud? :)...

    Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Thursday, Dec. 13th

    Good morning! Getting ready to do a total body workout - either the old Bootcamp or Power Hour. I'll probably decide when I get to the basement. I just went down and checked the temp and it was 57.9. Better than the 55 it was when I work out before work at 6am. :) A couple hours of having the...

    Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Wed Dec 12

    Dallys - Me too! I ask DH to go open it up and tell him I'll be right down. And then when we get out I run in the house and he does all the shutting and snapping up the top. Oh, and putting in the chemicals. :) Poor guys! Suz "Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains...

    Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Wed Dec 12

    Dallys - Way to go on Yoga X. I always had a love/hate relationship with that one. We're getting ready to get in the hot tub too. It's -7 outside with the windchill and I HATE going outside to get in the hot tub when it's that cold. It's nice once we're in but then I hate getting back out...

    How to break up with your gym partner

    Wow, I know it's not a great idea to give relationship advice when you don't know someone, but...I've gotta say I hear so often from women that their DH's don't want to spend time with them and when people have kids they have no time together and I hear other women say they can't get their DH's...

    My first haircut

    Susan, You've really come so far and are always such an inspiration to me and so many others here. I'm also a curly girl and your hair sounds kind of like mine. It's curlier on the ends than the roots. Although it seems like each day is different. My hair has a mind of its own. :) A...
