    ** DAMAGE CONTROL....TGIF **

    Wendy: SKIP CENTERGY AND DO INSANITY. I like your rotation ideas! Jacque: Thanks for the stretching tips. I'll try that. I was actually thinking it had something to do with a tendon based on where the pain is located. So for the entire DM I burned 405 calories. Not bad, but not as high...

    ** DAMAGE CONTROL....TGIF **

    Good Morning girls! I did Drillmax this morning because it had been on my mind. Great workout! The humidity is relentless here today, though, and it was a bit nausea inducing :confused: Hoping for a walk at lunch if the weather permits. Wendy: Wooooohoooooo!!! I don't know who I'm...

    DAMAGE CONTROL ~ Nearly Friday . . .

    Jacque: Oh man, wouldn't it be cool to have a treadmill/desk combo!! The way I get my steps is in to do the little things like Diana mentioned, go to the bathroom further away, park further away, do the laundry when I don't want to :p, walk at lunch every day. Yesterday I had to grocery shop...

    DAMAGE CONTROL ~ Nearly Friday . . .

    Hiya Chickadees! Glad to see we're back up and running. The server was still down when I tried earlier :( I never got in a real workout yesterday, though somehow I still managed to log over 12k steps so it wasn't a completely inactive day. This morning I went out for a five mile run...

    Damage Controllers Celebrate Hump Day!

    Jacque: Sounds like you lost a very dear friend and I'm sorry for that, but I'll bet he has a hand in gathering you all together every year :) I'm sure he's very much there in spirit with all of you! How old is DGS1? I'll bet if you have him for a few days your GWF will be smokin' ;)...

    Damage Controllers Celebrate Hump Day!

    Diana: I've read a lot about how not getting enough sleep can really hinder weight loss. There's something about a hormone that regulates hunger levels (soemthing called grehlin, or something like that) that goes wacky without enough sleep. I know my appetite is always monstrous on the days I...

    Damage Controllers Celebrate Hump Day!

    Jacque: Your long weekend is making me green with envy ;) I could soooo use one of those right now! But I'm hesitant to take any time off just yet because I feel like it'd appear a little irresponsible, seeing I just got back to work after a couple long absences. Congrats on the 1/2 inch...

    Damage Controllers Celebrate Hump Day!

    Good Morning chickadees :D I didn't workout this morning. I got up, put the workout clothes on, put the sneakers on, went out the the garage, pulled out Mix It Up, and put it right back. Then I took out Drillmax, after Diana and Lori's chatter about it yesterday, and scrapped that idea...

    Damage Controllin' on a Tuesday!

    Wendy: CLX is still the plan because I'm thinking the shorter workouts will fit in well with the earlier schedule that goes along with the start of the school year. I'll likely start with Burn as well. That said, one influential factor might just be your reviews of Insanity :p If you're...

    Damage Controllin' on a Tuesday!

    Diana: Patrick is also starting 8th grade. He's never been one to have a ton of friends either, though he's becoming a bit more social this year. Must be his age. He has one close friend who he's been hanging out with a bit this summer. They like to go mountain biking together. It's kinda...

    Damage Controllin' on a Tuesday!

    Diana: I'm glad you're enjoying the GWF. I'm addicted to mine. I wonder what's up with your trip though? Are you holding in the button for a few seconds when you try to reset it? I know mine won't change with just a click. Ugh, my kids would hate it if they had to do a science project...

    Damage Controllin' on a Tuesday!

    Good Morning girlies! Last night after work, I had to go let my mom’s dog out for his pee break, so I decided I’d take that as a reason to hit the road for a run. Her house is 3.2 miles away from mine, so I got 6.4 round trip and made the pup happy with my company for a few minutes. This...

    Damage Control on a Monday...BIG yawner! LOL

    Back from my lunchtime walk. Wow, it's a scorcher today! Jacque: Weekends are for doing things like furniture shopping and dog clipping :D No worries about skipping a workout! Which leg workkout have you decided on? Yeah, I'm think a few days (or a week!) away from the scale will be...

    Damage Control on a Monday...BIG yawner! LOL

    Oh yeah, btw Wendy, glad to hear you have no damage to control today!! I wasn't so brave. I think I'll give myself a day or two of clean eating before I brave the scale myself, cuz I'm kinda scared right now tbh :rolleyes: Let us know how you like TLT.

    Damage Control on a Monday...BIG yawner! LOL

    Good Morning ladies!! I think I'm recovered from the big weekend :p I got home yesterday and napped a bit, then pretty much watched t.v. for the rest of the day :rolleyes: Hit the sack around 10 and zonked out for the night. When the alarm went off this morning, I only had to snooze it...

    Aaahhhhhhh!!! This is soooo freakin' exciting! Wendy: Alright, the 60 minute Pilates class definitely excuses you from doing all of Tear It Up. You are pardoned ;) It's GO time, girlie!! You ready?? I still have to pack :o Jacque, Diana, Lori, Laura....We'll be thinking of all you...

    Damage Controllers...Today is Thursday, right? LOL

    Jacque: I'm not sure what has gotten into me re: the diet, but I think it might have something to do with how tired I've been. I do fine during the day but all bets are off once I'm home, and because I've been so tired I haven't been putting a lot of thought into what I'm making for dinner...
