    Mama D!

    I saw your post in the PB thread. I don't want to hijack Super Boybert's thread, so I'm starting one just for you. ;-) I'm still very jet-lagged and all your kind words perk me up. Thanks. I hope to see more of you around here. These forums lack spark without THE Den Mama. Hugs, Pinky :)

    Honeybunch...

    Yesterday I got tired of doing CTX-UB so I switched things up. For chest work, I used the idea of Cathe's GS push-ups but instead of starting with 16 reps, I started with 20 and shaved off 2 reps per set. I had to take a longer rest after the set of 12 push-ups, but I did all 110 of them on my...

    New pics are up

    For those of you interested, here are some photos I took of my weekend with my Texas chicas. Sandy and Pennie got to join us this time. I was incredibly thrilled about that. I can't speak for the other ladies, but I had a blast! :) http://www.piczo.com/pinkyville?g=24487459&cr=1 Best...

    Look what I got!

    In a past <--- thread I'd mentioned that my hubby and I were looking for a dated Christmas ornament that would always remind us of our boy's journey in therapy. I have to give my husband credit for the idea. He'd envisioned a boy nearing the finish line since our son is about to finish his time...

    Some photos of TX GTG

    Okay, you asked for them... What I have ain't much. My digital camera's cord is broken and I can't upload photos to my computer, so I had to bring my point-and-click. A lot of photos were too dark, too blurry, too grainy, too crappy... you get the idea.:( But here are some nice ones. Hope you...

    Did BC x 2...

    Okay, I did it out of curiosity. Just wanted to see IF I could do it, and how I’d feel while going through it. I did BC warm-up, 8 cycles + 8 cycles, cool-down. It took 1 hour, 53 minutes. I burned 944 calories total, 35% of them from fat. Used a 35-lb. bb, a 15-pounder, 12s, 10s and 8s...

    Is this dangerous?

    I've been using 20s for bench flyes for about three months now. I've always thought that once I get to this weight, that this would be it for me. But now I'm wondering if I should proceed and go heavier. I've been doing all sets of flyes in GS-CT with 20s, and that's after all the push-ups and...

    Worked out for the first time since the road trip...

    I did C&W, which is my wake-up-the-body-after-a-long-rest-period or ease-back-into-working-out workout. Went up a notch on most of the weight work to make it harder, did db rows one arm at a time also with 15's, actually used my 15's a lot today, then tacked on upper body premix of Bootcamp (in...

    Road trippers: Does anyone have a similar story?

    I was standing by that big table where all the Cathe gear were, and this itty-bitty old lady asked me, "What is THIS?" She sounded a bit annoyed. I said, "What?" I thought she was asking what the big table was for. She asked again, more annoyed this time, "What is THIS?" I said, "Oh...

    Road Trip thoughts, revelations, memories

    NJ’s roads are pretty confusing (no offense to those who live there, but I’m used to roads that form right angles at intersections) I was very amused by the Wawa (a 7eleven kind of store) – they had salads, power bars and boiled eggs, great stop for protein-loaders The Ramada’s elevator...

    Hey there, I saw the message you left and would like to PM or e-mail you the info you want. I did a search on your user ID, but it seems your PM and e-mail are also not on. I have this "allergy" to settings that allow just anyone to reach me. There have been psychos before. I hope you...

    Bootcamp for the first time

    I followed Cathe's May rotation, and the heavy lifting got me too tired to do as much cardio as I wished. By the fourth week of the rotation, it took me more than 7 days to get through all the body parts, especially after my allergies got worse and triggered asthma attacks. So this week is my...

    OT: How do you get stuck play-doh out of carpet fibers?

    My son makes a mess out of everything and today he decided to vacuum the tiny bits of fresh play-doh off the carpet with his toy vacuum cleaner that can actually suck out dirt. Well, I think he pressed his vacuum cleaner hard onto the floor, flattened the fresh play-doh and got a lot of orange...

    Too Much Water

    I found this in Time yesterday. Good thing they have the article online: http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1050291,00.html Good FYI. I didn't know such a condition existed. Pinky
