Where does the time go. I missed a few workouts this week for Dr. appts. Annual mammogram is done and a follow up with the Dr. to go over my labs and some skin abnormality removals on my face. UGH. My cholesterol is a little high, a little higher than last year. My Dr. told me to limit full...

We are back from the mountains. It was so nice to escape the heat for a week. I did plenty of walking every day-45 minutes to 2 hours. I even did a couple of my row app w/o's. They have mat workouts, core etc, things you don't need the machine for. I also did some ab workouts from the...

I tweaked my back the other day, pulling weeds I think. I had a few days off from workouts. My back was feeling better today so I did a cardio/bi/tri ab circuit that was pretty good. I'm really looking forward to STS 2.0 was glad Cathe finally gave another update. I've been using my new...

I've been to Chicago but would love to go back. I've never been to Nashville or Mt. Rushmore. Whenever we can make it happen it will be a fun trip for sure. I had my weigh in with the hormone Dr. and my weight was up just over a pound, but my muscle had increased and my bodyfat had decreased...

I've been doing a lot of heavy lifting and less cardio. It's been a body part split and I'm thinking full body is sounding good to me. My weight is pretty much the same. My body is just covered in fat so I'm hoping the Testosterone shots and sermorelin will help. It hasn't even been a month...

Wow, didn't realize it had been so long since I checked in. Just busy with work etc. I've been getting in my workouts. I've been following the other platforms June Challenge and she just added a bonus week. Today was Legs and I did deadlifts with 104#, and sit squats with 114#. Those are...

My appt went very well. My muscle mass is good, but my bodyfat% is high. The Dr. doesn't think I need to lose 40#'s which is good. That would not be a maintainable weight for me. I would be good with 20-25#'s. My labs showed my testosterone was barely measurable. I'm taking testosterone...

Seriously, where does the time go. It's been a hectic week. My internet was out on Monday so I only got in 4.5 hours of work. Yesterday was supposed to be my off Friday, but I had so many things that needed to get done, and it was patch Friday. Patching is so stressful, takes so long and...

Oh gosh, just busy with life. I'm doing the June Challenge on the platform I'm following right now. It's heavy weights with 20 min of cardio at the end. The alternate days are weight based cardio, so lower weights, high reps and compounds to keep us in the fat burning zone. I'm able to squat...

Well I've been getting in 5 or 6 workouts each week and feel good about that. I am giving up alcohol for the month of June. I found a Dr. that will do a hormone panel. I currently have a very low dose estrogen patch, but the hot flashes are getting much worse and not sleeping is problematic...

The girls had 8th grade continuation on Thursday morning. I took my MIL and we enjoyed the ceremony. Then my MIL and I went out to lunch and DS took the girls and their best friend to downtown Denver. They had a great day. That afternoon I had sclerotherapy, hoping to get rid of this deep...

Sorry I've been MIA. Just working, errands, household stuff etc. I've been getting 5 or 6 days of workouts each week. I try to get to Yoga on Sunday mornings and Monday nights, and one additional day during the week. My rower arrived and DS1 put it together for me. I've done the first 2...

We are looking into adding the bar to the basement. The plumbing rough in is there for it. It is more like a mini kitchen, with upper/lowers and refrigerator on the back wall, and lowers with a sink on the front. We should get the estimate by the end of the week. We also sold DH's truck. It...

We are having big swings in temperature and it's causing my psoriasis to flare up. Thankfully I have medication for it, but the itching is driving me crazy. I had a busy week, but managed to work out 6 days and do yoga 3 days. I'm planning on going to yoga tomorrow morning. I'm learning a...

It sounds like you might just need to take a vacation or staycation. Your job seems to be dragging you down. Taking a week off of working out would probably be good too. You definitely sound burnt out. You may want to have blood work done to see if its anemia, thyroid or some other...

How was your week? I was in a training class T-Th. The first day I was about 2 hours late since I just couldn't get connected. Thankfully I still had an old work laptop and that seemed to work. Then I was behind on all the labs. It was good class. On Monday I did a quick 20 min walk...

Sorry you had such a bad week. Any update on the job change-part time, new position etc.? When you say upgrade your computer-did you get a new pc? If you still have your old pc, you should be able to save the downloads to a thumb drive and put them on your new pc. I'm sure you've tried...

I finally got in a workout today-legs. I couldn't get away from desk on Mon or Tues to workout. I was able to at least go for a walk on Monday. Did you see Cathe posted an update on STS 2.0. I'm really looking forward to those workouts. How is your week going?

The second yoga class was yesterday. We focused a lot on breath to movement and some basic flows. I am really enjoying it so far. As far as workouts, I did get in 6 workouts last week. Today is my rest day. I have a pedicure appt this afternoon and will also stop at kohls and target...

Well there this is the only yoga studio near me. I'm going to do the beginner series this month and make a decision if it's something I want to continue. I did really like the first class. I felt taller when I left too! Last Friday was a rest day, Sat was full body, Sun was an 8 x8 with...
