Hi everyone! Hope you all had a good weekend. Sat. we had DS b-day party, we went bowling and then all came back to the house for dinner and cake. Fun was had by all! Today I did 4DS KB and legs. Hadn't done that in a long time! Have to get the grass mowed today, weather is supposed to be warmer, just have to wait till the dew dries! Murphy, how many pull-ups can you get? I will tell you my DD is way better at it than I am! She can do 3-4, me, only if my feet are on the ground! Have a good day, Hi to all that follow! Mary

Hello,
Today is an ab/run day. I was supposed to do legs but chickened out. I need to get it done tomorrow, legs are more tough area (in addition to the rest of me).
Did anyone see the HiIT pictures? Is it me or do they all look like they lost weight?
Mary - Glad to hear that the party went well. Have you recovered? I can only do 5 pull-ups and they are a struggle. I have tried different hand grips and the over hand is the hardest for me.

Murphy, guess we smell again! Today was BC cardio from 4DS, haven't done that in a while, quick and fun. Beautiful day here! 5 Pull-ups! I am very impressed with you! I saw those pics, Cedie looks fantastic! I am starting to get very excited! Have a good night. Talk to you tomorrow! Mary

Hi girls
I saw the photos as well. It looks great. I really like the idea of the 30 mins sessions. I'm finding I don't really want to do long cardio workouts these days.
Mary - glad the party went well on Sat. Do you go around picking at the food once the kids have finished? Or is that just me?!
Murph - I've never attempted a pull-up in my life and I'm sure I couldn't manage one! 5 is very impressive!
Well, today is my 43rd birthday! I'm off out to lunch with a friend. Got some lovely presents from the family (including contributions to my recent clothing spree!).
See you all tomorrow.

Hello,
Well, today I just did not want to get up. Yes, again. :-0 That means that I have to squeeze in something tonight. I plan to do the EA Sports on the Wii. I programmed a track workout that I can do in 30 min. I hope my legs will be okay for STS tomorrow b/c it is leg day and I really need to get the disc done so I can get if off my mind.
Ronne - HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!!!!
Mary - I think you are right about the smelling again. I guess Ronne's nose isn't working or maybe it is the birthday high! I agree with you about Cedie, I noticed her first and she does look great. Of coures they all look great, it just looks like her legs have really slimmed down. Deazie's arms look great too. I too am getting excited!

Hey everyone! Is it Wed already? Time has gotten away from me....had busy 2 days at work and now in a lull again but looks like I may be busy again soon with a transition coming up.
Let's see, I've been working out like a fiend. Sat, STS M2 D16 C/S/T, Sun STSM2D17, Legs (ugh), Monday, STS M2 D17, biceps only, Tuesday, 50 min run, Wed, STS M2 D17 back only (I like splitting up back/bi in M2 into separate days to do during the work week). My lower body is sore, between legs and running, I can barely walk at times. I ran Tues more to clear the brain (didn't sleep well -- dog was restless and then my brain was restless thinking of work--hate that).
It's snowing today --- should only be a couple inches on grassy surfaces only, prior to this was just a trace.
Murphy, It's easy to put off legs, but I know if I don't do it on the weekend, it ain't happening so I can't put it off.....get a strategy like that? I think you asked about Maddy, she's doing pretty good and we are enjoying our days. DH gives her the pills now because that became a struggle, but now she comes to him for her pills but still shakes, then she jumps around after she takes them like she's happy it's over.
Mary, sounds like a lovely party! Still mowing, huh? We haven't mowed in a couple of weeks but will have to do one last one to suck up stray leaves and trim it up before it goes into dormant mode.
Ronne, HAPPY BIRTHDAY! 43!?!?!?! Don't tell me I"m the oldest here (45)...I think Murphy is barely in her 40s, where are you Mary? I too like the idea of 30 min workouts....easier to fit in!
Did you all see that stupid balloon boy fiasco here in Co? Ronne, did you see it over there? I know it got international attention. What a joke....was sooooo sick of hearing about it here.
Gotta get on with my hump day, have a good one everyone!

Lisa - yep, I just turned 40 this past August. I still like I am in my 30's - well, maybe just mentally. Physically, it depends on the day. I was one of those millions of people watching the balloon boy. I will be happy when it is over. This is a good argument to end the reality tv shows. IMHO.

Hi everyone! Glad to see the gang all here! (with exception of Kathryn and Andrea!) Ronne, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! Hope that you have a great day! Ronne, if I didn't nibble all day, I think I would weight 50 lbs less! Lisa, you have been a w/o fiend! I just turned 45 last month, we are just a little more experienced than everyone else! Good to hear about Maddy. I didn't pay much attention to balloon boy, now they are all over the news, guess they got what they wanted, huh? We don't have snow yet, know it will be coming tho. I have one home sick from school, fever, etc. There have been a lot of people admitted with the flu tho. I don't want to get it! Need to get to paperwork, housework, sit with the sick one! Have a good day! Mary

Hi to all of my youthful 40's!
I was sick last night and so took the morning off. I plan to do my afternoon/lunch-time walk but a little slower. I am feeling better but am worried about pushing it. I am trying to be smarter and rest when not feeling well. Plus, my next set of insanity dvd's should be in soon and I have to be ready. I also rented Illaria's abs and push-ups dvd. I was curious. I will report back to you with my thoughts.

Hi everyone. I am procrastinating something terrible. I need a good kick in the butt! I just cleaned the toilets instead of getting my w/o in! That's bad! Murphy, hope that you are feeling better. I need to get busy! Have a good night, I really truly am on my way to my w/o, as soon as I finish folding clothes.... Mary
