    post-baby rotation

    Good rotation! Sometimes I like 2 rest days per week instead of 1. I'll print it out for the future. And if I ever had Cathe herself reply to one of my posts, I think I'd hyperventilate. Then I'd print it out and laminate it:p:eek::p. Okay, so I'm a little wierd.... Maggie:)

    Cathe why no pushups in Meso 2 & 3?

    When I get to meso 2, I am going to warm up with pushups instead of the 50% bench press. I want to keep increasing how many I can do on my toes throughout the year, so I don't want to give them up. Just a thought for those who may feel inclined to miss them;) (although it looks like there are...

    Discipling other peoples kids?

    I think your bil was out of line. It's one thing to have other people's kids follow the rules of your house, for example if they are jumping on your couch and you don't allow couch jumping, I think it's okay to say something in a cheerful way like, "We don't jump on the couch in this house."...

    6 Monthers STS check in WEEK OF MARCH 2nd

    Hi ladies-- Here in my part of Oregon we don't get much snow, so I'm sort of jealous, but I'll bet if you get a lot of it, it gets old fast;). I just did 60 min on the treadmill, walking because my ankle feels tweaky and I'm determined not to be sidelined by injuries for this rotation. Pushing...

    Baby Eva is here!!

    Jenm--Big congratulations! You finally made it. She looks beautiful (as does your whole family:)). Enjoy her smallness, because it goes quickly, especially with those big babies--Gwen, who was 10 lbs at birth is closing in on 20 at 6 months. My other daughters didn't weigh that until well over...

    Hi ladies--did STS disk 6 legs yesterday and just did 1 hour on the treadmill. My dh made the dreadful and odd mistake of asking dd12 to "trim" the fuzz at the base of his neck. OOPS! now his hair is shaved halfway up to his ears in back.:eek: I'm cracking up just thinking about it. I told her...

    Hi ladies! Yesterday was 4DS double cardio (LIS/HIS) and today was STS disk 4, which I loved. DS 14 laughed when he saw my before pics in my workout notebook. He said I don't look that bad in real life:p, so, that's nice. I'll have to make sure the after pics look really good--for extra...

    Hungry horrors?

    I've definitely noticed an increase in appetite, but my weight loss has remained steady. I'm nursing a monster baby, so that probably helps:eek:. I've increased my calorie intake slightly (clean eats), to prevent getting so hungry I binge. I also took some before pictures to inspire...

    mommies with babies

    Hi ladies--Good news and bad news, for me, that is. Good news, I'm down another pound, bad news: I took my "before" pics and they are demoralizing. I printed them out to put in my STS notebook. If they don't inspire me to "excel still more", I don't know what will. If and when I ever have...

    mommies with babies

    HI ladies-- I did STS legs disk 3 (again--6 month plan) yesterday and I just did an hour of hill walking on the tm. My knees feel tweaky, so no running, but I burned more calories than last week, so go figure.... STS is making me hungry, but I am loving it. Gwen had her 6 month check up...

    Feel like giving up on exercise & eating right !!!

    Wow--You've lost almost a pound a week--I think that's good. My goal is 3 lbs per month (.75 lbs per week). And you say you were half way to your goal? That means in another 6 weeks you'll be there. It will take me to October to meet my goal! Put it in perspective:). As far as the weekend...

    mommies with babies

    Hi ladies--today was STS disk 1 again (I'm doing the 6 month rotation). The transitions went much more smoothly and I was able to do more of the push ups on my toes--but still many on my knees. Hi Candra--Happy Birthday and enjoy your dinner--Ryder is in good hands, although I find that...

    Check in for the 6 mo rotation?

    I'm doing the six month rotation--I'm glad I discovered it. I think repeating each week will be better for my injury prone body--then I can lift the heavier weights required for the next section with my body a little better prepared. I am into my 2nd week (repeating M1 disks 1,2,3) and...

    mommies with babies

    HI ladies--so when does the post partum period officially end? You'd think after 7 bambinos, I'd know the answer to that question:confused::eek::p! But hey--I'm totally fine with "mommies with babies", cuz that's true. Mine's getting her first tooth and more cranky than normal--she's pretty...
