    Getting Our Licks In!

    Janie Those are beautiful! I am going to wear them often and think of you every time! Elle - well if one can't be hot they can at least ride a hot bike :eek:. Too bad about the ex getting the bike. I don't think I would want to ride around in Toronto either though.... Going to confess...

    Janie - wow that was fast :D. Thank you so much! Will send you my address. Going to do the 4DS premix "Total Body Weights" today from the Bootcamp/Kickbox.

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Did Athletic Step - man for some reason that kicked my butt. Granted, I just recently started putting a set of risers under my step so I am sure that had something to do with it :p. I am working my way through each and every Cathe workout that I have. Once I have completed them all, I will...

    Janie - I just love your paper bead jewelry - so beautiful! You have also written a book? Well you certainly are not taking retirement as an excuse to watch TV all day (lol)! Good for you :D. Shadowpup - thank you also for the support. That was exactly how I meant it to be interpreted...

    I died in my sleep this morning.

    I have had a few dreams of dying but they were long ago and I can't remember much detail. I have had the "I'm falling" dreams where I jerk awake. I can imagine the dying dreams are disturbing.

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Just an update - I did do the 4DS Chest/Back but picked the low impact chest/back premix. The premixes on that series are really nice - so much to choose from! Dunno if I will ever do the ones that are 100+ minutes though :eek:. Grady loves anything that moves that he can chase :D.

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Renee - I don't blame you for not trusting others on the road. Motorcycles have a tendency to not be seen. We live far out in the country so we do very little in town driving. Of course, now I have to be careful for animals (deer, dogs, etc.) on the road which I have encountered. You should...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Hello all :). Going to do 4DS High Intensity Step, Chest/Back today. It should be lower 50s today (was mid 60s yesterday) so I will hopefully get out with Grady and do some walking or chuck-it. A couple of days ago I was using the chuck-it to throw the ball up the driveway and after 25...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    YAY me...I lost another 2 pounds :D. This morning I did 4DS Kickbox (the entire thing) and loved it! That is a nice workout. I am feeling loads better and my energy was good so I finally got to the last 4DS workout. I am going to start them all over again and do them for the next 2 weeks or...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Elle_p - thanks for the heads up on miss personality (lol). I was reading another thread right after I read your post where she stated that something another poster said was "rubbish" so it def. made me feel better to know that she simply has a hot button (or two). :p Took another rest day -...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Didn't do anything today, I feel like total crap. I might have a cold and sinus infection. Seems like I am sick all the time doesn't it? However, I actually don't get sick very often. I do get sinus infections several times a year - just prone to them I guess. I think the one I have now is...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Happy Valentines Day everyone! You are all my sweethearts for supporting each other so well!! Ladubose - thanks for the support about my workout slump post. I probably came across as harsh because no one can hear my intentions on the internet - my intention was to wake her up to all that...

    Workout slump....

    I can understand that view point. What works for some may not work for others - for me, a swift kick in the pants (reality check) is what gets me going. It might be negative but done in a motivational way. I guess I just do better with more forceful reinforcement (tough love).

    Workout slump....

    Well to defend myself as I see I must, I wasn't trying to make anyone feel bad. I was expressing an opinion based on every single person that I have known who has stopped exercising and then couldn't get back into the groove. However, these were people that didn't have medical or mental...

    Workout slump....

    I like this advice....along the same lines, you can get ready for your workout and tell yourself that 10 minutes in if you still don't feel like working out, you can stop. Usually by 10 minutes your energy level is there and you want to keep going.

    Workout slump....

    I am not sure what motivates you or why you are in a slump but I can tell you that you will regret losing your fitness, you will regret the loss of energy, you will regret the gained weight, you will regret the lack of determination, you will regret just about everything there is about being in...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Hello everybody. Did 4DS Bootcamp today. I was sort of dreading it because of the "bootcamp" title but it was actually a lot of fun. I had to modify a bit because I didn't want to do all the jumping but I didn't modify much. Elle - wow so sorry to hear about your car accident. Def. take...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Hello all! Did 4DS Lower Intensity Step DVD. Enjoyed myself - I actually put two risers on my step today - up until today I didn't use any risers. Feeling stronger all the time. Can't wait till summer to see how these workouts improve my walking/hiking capabilities. I think I won't have as...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Renee - The karate story was funny - I bet he talked about you to his friends - his karate hero :eek:. ladubose136 pushups! I want to be just like you when I grow up (lol)! I took 2 days off for the weekend. I was so sore on Sat. that there was no way I could do any type of cardio - I...

    A complete Low Impact series please please please

    A low impact series would be fantastic! I modify as needed right now but it would be nice to have a series to pick from and not have to modify!
