40s+ June - Where's the sun?

Good Evening,

I did KCM Circuit Burn 2 before work and tomorrow I am going to do 2 workouts to make up for the one I will miss Saturday since we are staying with oldest DD so we can be close to the wedding site.

Mary-off until Monday.

Lisa- hope you are feeling better.

Ronne-started raining here again and suppose to rain until next Friday they are predicting 3-7" by Tuesday.
 
Hi

Lisa - have a nice day off.

Mary - sounds like a fun weekend for the twins. We're thinking about going to see that film. Maybe on Sunday.

Roxie - hope you have a lovely weekend (and the rain stays away!). Hope the wedding goes smoothly. Post a few pics if you can!

Got an acupuncture session again today. I think it will be the last one. Also got to pick up a couple of things in town while I'm there.
DD is doing a sponsored 5km run tomorrow, so going along to cheer her. (She's been training for it, she's not a runner ;))
Did a nice yoga session, very relaxing.
 
Good morning! Today did a Paul Katami work out, it was hard! Roxie, have a great weekend! 7 inches of rain? It will be a fruitful marriage! (I think I'd rather have snow!?). Ronne, good luck to DD! Lisa, did you have fun yesterday? Going to the movies today, kind of scared! Lol! Mary
 
Good Afternoon,

I did KCM Muscle up First Set Pump, Abs Standing and Plank Premix and then a 30 minute run/walk on the TM. Went and got my nails redone polish started to chip then bought more wrapping paper for the present. My sister use to be a hairdresser so she is going to do my hair.

Mary-good job with your workout and that isn't all in one weekend it's over the next couple of days.
 
Hello! This morning did Cathe live, super cuts. Roxie, happy wedding day! Hope all is well with everyone else! Have to go shower to get kids from ACT. Tomorrow they leave for leadership camp for the week. Will be me and youngest DS for a week! Have to plan some fun! Mary
 
Time got away from me yesterday, never got here to check in. I did RWH UB circuit. I bought the new Fitbit Charge HR, has a heart rate monitor. Maybe this will motivate me to buckle down on eats and lose some weight that's creeped on, grrrr. Today I did CLB. Ronne, good luck to DD! Mary, it'll be good preparation for when the older ones go off to college! Roxie, enjoy the wedding!
 
Good afternoon

Mary - have you got some plans for this week?

Lisa - it's nice to treat yourself to new bits of kit. Hope it does the trick!

Roxie - hope everything went well this weekend.

The weekend seems to have flown past. DD's run went well on Saturday morning, the weather was awful. She did it in 28 mins which is pretty good as she's only been practising for a few weeks.
Saturday night, DH and I had a spontaneous night out. We went out for a meal and then to a gig. Left DD on her own and we didn't get back till midnight! Had a great evening.
Yesterday was mainly chores etc.
Had a day off exercise on Saturday, yesterday I did KCM Body Training LB and today was Split Sessions UB (someone did it on here recently and it reminded me to get it out).
 
Good morning! Today did a butt workout I found on you tube, it was good. Of course I can't remember any details! Roxie, how was the wedding? Scoop please!? Ronne, DD did amazing in her race! I love date night! Lisa, I need to stop eating also! Well, we got the kids off to their respective colleges, seems like it will be a good experience for them. Of course, DD is the only one texting us! Today youngest DS and I are hitting the zoo, hope the rain holds off! Have a good day! Mary
 
FT today. This fitbit shows you floors climbed in addition to hr. Yesterdays dog walk I did 12 floors, today was 19 floors! Guess it's good I live in a hilly area! Mary, sons just don't seem to 'talk' so much. Younger DS is having more leaks in the house he's renting. Not many places will let you have pets (even though these places are old, like 70 yrs). Ronne, great for dd! I find it surprising you all aren't a family of athletes!
 
Good Evening,

Well we didn't get to have the wedding outside it rained all day but other than that it was great so happy its over. I picked up a flu bug somewhere so I haven't worked out hoping to have a better morning. DH and I babysat the GS Friday and Saturday night and we came home exhausted last night. GS and I slept on the couch Friday night I was hoping daddy would but him in bed with him when he got home but no such luck.

Mary-it was a nice wedding.

Ronne-sounds like a nice weekend.

Lisa-my Fitbit says I climbed stairs just walking in my house that has no elevation.
 
Hi Ladies

Roxie - shame about the weather but glad it all went well. Hope you feel better soon.

Lisa - well, we do all keep fit in our own way. DH goes to the gym, swims and runs. I'm the non-sporty one in the family though. DH played a lot of sport when he was younger but I hated sport and used to bunk off PE!

Mary - are the twins 16 now? I've lost track. Do they go and look at college quite young or do they start at 16? Here you don't do Higher Ed till 18.

Did another KCM today, Shape Up all cardio premix.
The sun is shining. I spent some time in the garden at the end of the day yesterday, tidying up and making it look nice.
I'm actually wearing a skirt and a t-shirt for the first time this year.
 
Good morning! Today did a Michelle Dozois workout I found on YouTube, there is a lot of stuff on there. Roxie, sorry about the rain, I'm sure it was a beautiful day no matter the weather. Ronne, skirts do feel summer like! The twins have one more year of high school then off to college. This week is a leadership camp they were chosen for, it's being held at 2 colleges, one for girls and the other for boys, they stY in the dormitories there. Of course the colleges are on opposite sides of the state! Lisa, I carried my phone at the zoo yesterday, we walked over 12,000 steps! I think today we will go to the movies, something not so active! Mary
 
I did 60 min of spinning, whew! It's been sooo humid and with not being able to use a fan, I was soaking wet! Ronne, that almost sounds like DH and me. DH was athletic in school and still out does me in quick climbs (I'm breathing way heavy, he's just barely breathing and faster), but now he doesn't workout much. I told him last walk where we climbed up this big hill, that it's sad I'm the one that workouts so much and can't keep up, but I told him I outdo him in endurance any day, he agreed, say whaaaat? He admitted I was better at something? lol. Mary, this new fitbit charge HR is clocking less steps than my fitbit flex. I think it's more accurate. Roxie, hope you are feeling better, nothing worse than feeling ill this time of year!
 
Good Evening,

I did KCM TLC Boxing this morning still have and upset stomach don't know what is going on.

Lisa-it's humid here too.

Mary-it was a beautiful day.

Ronne-I have been thinking of getting that KCM workout I didn't order it when it came out.
 
Hello

Roxie - it's a good one. I use it quite a lot. I hadn't done that cardio only premix before and I needed to take little breaks.

Lisa - we're slightly different, I walk quicker up hills than DH, but when it comes to throwing, catching or hitting things, he always wins. We had a period of playing squash at lunchtime and he tonked me every time.

Mary - thanks for the explanation, I find US schools very confusing. :) That's very convenient for you. Did you have to drive them both there?

Yoga for me today. It was a hard one, worked up a bit of a sweat. Sunny again, got the washing out. (And eating belgian choc chip and coconut cookies!)
 
Hello! Today did another Paul Katami workout. Well, you all have me beat! I can't beat my DH in anything! I am more flexible than him, does that count? Ronne, I drove DD, DH took DS. On Saturday have to pick up DD, 2 hours away, then go to DS's college for visit day, another 3 1/2 hours, we are staying the night because we have to be back at the college at 8 in the morning on Sunday, I'm too lazy to get up at 4 to drive 3 hours! Your cookie sounds amazing! Roxie, humid here too, I sometimes feel like a faucet that won't stop leaking! Lisa, I know you can't use a fan, but boy does it help to feel air moving when I'm working out. Youngest DS and I saw Pitch Perfect 2 yesterday, it was ok, I enjoyed Jurassic World much more. Cleaning today! Mary
 
Was up early today, 3am. I don't think the patch has enough umpf at the end of the wearing time. Dr called, estrogen still waaaaay low, 19, they like it to be 50. That must be why I still have a couple sleepless nights a week. Not in meno, fsh I think they said was 15. I go in Fri they are thinking of what to try since I'm on the highest dose estrogen patch, they mentioned creams or pills. What a hassle! I did CF today. Mary, flexibility totally counts! Wow lots of driving! We do more now to go pick up DS dog at the halfway point when his job takes him there, and that's been a lot lately! Ronne, I can't throw at all! Cookies sound good, I'm really trying to be good! I wanted ice cream so bad last night! Not sure if cravings are happening because of my hormones going berserk. My knee still hurts, and more since adding estrogen , massage therapist said that could be as there are estrogen receptors in your ligaments. It's a meno symptom too ( or low E - estrogen). Hoping one day this gets all straightened out and really hoping it helps my weight!
 
Good Evening,

I did KCM Muscle Up Bonus Abs this morning after work DH and I went to the lake.

Lisa-hope they figure something out soon.

Mary-hoping this humidity breaks soon.

Ronne-thanks for feedback on that workout.
 
Good afternoon

Mary - that definitely counts. I don't blame you for staying over. That's not lazy, that's practical.

Lisa - yuck to waking up at 3am (perhaps you could go and pick up Mary's kids?!!!) I suppose once you're out the other end, it should be better.

Roxie - hope you had fun at the lake.

A lovely sunny day here. Did Amy Bento Drop Set Strength, Legs, Bis & Tris. Work a bit quiet so catching up on other stuff.
 
Hello! Today did PUB. Ronne, is that DVD worth getting? I have always liked Amy, not sure I connect with her workouts tho. Roxie, still so humid here, 84 percent, I hate complaining because of the long winter...... Lisa, did you get any sleep last night? I hope it found you and stayed with you! Not much today, maybe pool if it doesn't rain, Mary
