40's - Turkey week

Hi all

Roxie - ugh, that does not sound like fun! You're doing really well, working out as much as you do. Is the new series better when you're feeling like this?

Jody - congrats on the workout!! Are you almost finished like Mary?

Mary - so is that you finished till after Christmas?

Lisa - well, it sounds like she's trying to make an effort at least. Young people don't email anymore - it's all text and social networking. DH emails his eldest daughter and I think he's about the only one!

Finally back into the groove today. Did HIS step only. Just right. Went shopping yesterday and got most of the Christmas presents sorted. Good to get it out of the way, just got to get cards and a few more bits and pieces. I have to start this early as I have so many birthdays as well and have to do handovers in early Dec!
 
Good Morning,

Tonite for me is Yoga Max and maybe attempt that step workout I keep putting off.

Ronne-I am enjoying this series but I can't do any of the floor work so hopefully next month when I repeat this rotation I can add that in and see even better results because I am liking what I am seeing.
 
Morning! I did GS BBS and did my turkey trot on the TM, I am not working out tomorrow, so I got it all out of the way! Roxie, hope you are feeling better! Lisa, a lot of my friends don't check their email, the always tell me to send them a message on Facebook! I'm glad to hear she is trying. Ronne, I can't believe you are done shopping! I haven't started! I will start after Thanksgiving! Jody, what are you up to? I am done with work until after the holidays, I am extremely lucky! Well, need to get to the shower, if I don't get back tomorrow,I hope you all have a blessed Thanksgving. Mary
 
Running late, late, late today. up at 3am, finally got back to sleep and woke at 7am. good thing I was planning to work from home(i'm not asking I'm just doing it ). So did a short one---30/30, but I wore a sports bra so that counts as 2 workouts :)

Mary, turkey trot? is that a cathe incentive event? Yes you are lucky to be off until after the holidays, I guess I could too with no pay, and with all the $ going out the door I figure I better work :confused:

Roxie, that floor work is tough, but remember, something is better than nothing, right?

Ronne, not sure if you will be by yourself here tomorrow, so far I plan to do the last w/o of sts meso2 ch/sh/tri, depends on if I'm running late or not. I still haven't started one iota of cooking for our t-giving day.

Waves to Murphy and Jody, gotta run, I guess I really should be working!
 
Hi all

Hope you're all having a lovely Thanksgiving whatever you're up to. Stuff yourselves silly and enjoy yourselves!

Did PP today. All quiet here.
 
Hi all. Did not sleep well last night plus the kids were up early. Funny, if it was a school day they would have wanted to sleep later. I tried to do Intensity but at some point it just got to be too much and I had to stop 1/2-way through.
I have a long day ahead, visiting 3 people. Including the cookies I made for DH's class, I made 8 desserts over the past 3 days. Plus, my cycle started - I am a bit stressed, tired and moody - this is going to be a long day...

Happy Thanksgiving all.

Ronne - Do you celebrate anything special today?

Murphy
 
Good Morning,

Happy Thanksgiving. DD is coming over and we are going to have lunch and then put up the christmas tree and maybe go for a walk. I am getting ready to do Tri Sets Lower Body.

Murphy-I hear you on the cycle thing, sounds like you have a busy day ahead.

Ronne-have a nice day.
 
Happy turkey day! I finished up STS meso 2 with CH/Sh/Tri, lots of drop sets! Then spent 2 hrs in the kitchen, I'm tired (and DH is grumbling too), without his help I'd be in there 4 hrs. So now resting up until the oldest gets here at 5.

Murphy, that does sound like a busy day! My sleep has been off and on too, thankfully last night it was on.

Ronne, I'm trying not to stuff since I'd just have to work it off! Can you believe Cathe did an 8K for FUN this morning? (was on Facebook)

Roxie, T-giving AND putting up a tree in the same day? That sounds like a full day too.

Mary and Jody, have a great day!

Who works tomorrow besides me?
 
Did one of the low impact challenge premixes today. I am still feeling a bit off. I may go to the doctor next week, just to be sure.

Hope everyone had a good holiday. I did not stuff myself so I am very proud of myself. Plus, DH got to talking about football and electronics and later took a quick nap on the couch - so we ended up not going to the other two houses we were supposed to go to after my sister's house. Yeah!

Lisa - I am working today. I guess it will be just the two of us.

Murphy
 
Hi all

I'm here!! Glad to hear you all had a good day.

Murphy - no there's nothing special going on here on that day. Just a normal day.

Lisa - Cathe did what? Mad!

Roxie - hope you're enjoying your day off.

Well, my DVDs have arrived!!!!! :eek: And I didn't have to pay any customs charge. I would have slammed one in the player straight away but I've already worked out today and I couldn't manage anything else. Also, really pleased to get the S&G disks as they said they wouldn't be sending them to overseas customers. Will probably go right in to a rotation using them and that should take me up to Christmas. I can finally join in the conversations!!!
 
Did Cycle Max again today, trying to do more biking to prepare for biking on the beach with my sis. I also did 2 miles on the TM yesterday, was going to try for a 5K but ......

Murphy, I didn't pig out either and had a nice family time with my boys and future DIL. Had a nice bottle of wine too. I'm not working too hard for sure!

Ronne, Yippee!!!! That's great you got the discs too!!!! That was worth the wait! Which one you gonna try first.
 
Lisa, I'm going to do Afterburn tomorrow. It's the first one on the rotation. I just previewed it - I know I haven't got a hope!!!

Have a good weekend everyone.
 
Hi girls! Hope you all had a good day! We went to MIL's in the morning for brunch. They have cats, DH and 2 of the kids are allergic, they all took Benadryl before we went. The kids all got allergic reactions, DH had asthma attack. We had to leave early. DH had to go to the fire station to get a respitory treatment. He is feeling better, thank goodness. Then we went to my folks, didn't eat too much! I do need to get busy with a workout tho! Ronne, I'm so glad they finally came! Let us know how you like them! Lisa, sounds like a good day! Especially the wine part! We had some Moscato with dinner. Murphy, hope you feel better! Roxie, you have your tree up? I don't think I have the energy for that or the desire yet. It is 60 here? Jody, how are you? Well, need to get to my workout! Going to try to shop later, have a good day! Mary
 
Good Aftenoon,

I haven't worked out yet had to go to the bank pay a bill then we needed more garland for the tree do I went to Walmart what a zoo and then Target even worse zoo but I got DD's Kindle Fire she wanted for christmas so all was not lost. Later I will do Slide & Glide cardio and the Cardio Blast from Low Impact Challenge.

Ronne-I would start with one of the premixes on Afterburn before you tackle the whole thing.

Mary-that is awful about the allergy reactions.

Lisa-glad you had a good Thanksgiving with the boys and gf.
 
Roxie, shopping on BF? That's a workout in and of itself!

Mary, that's awful about the allergy. Guess it's good he could go to the fire station and not the ER.

Ronne, I say dive in! :D
 
Hi Everyone!

I didn't workout over TG/BF. I did overindulge. I think I've found a new bottom, which is bad but now there is only one place to go which is up (I hope). I have had 3 nights of 8 plus hours of sleep. That is like a massage for my brain...ahhh.

Ronne, I am happy for you getting your DVDs!

Murphy, are you feeling better yet?

Mary, your husband's mom has cats even when her own son and grands are allergic? somehow that doesn't seem right.

Lisa, you are leaving soon, right? Too bad I don't live closer to one of your stops, we could meet for a cup of coffee or a run or something! I used to live in Daytona, my dad lives there now, but he usually comes to me right now since we are too busy to leave town very often.

Roxie, putting a tree up sounds like fun family thing to do. I put some nice evergreen plug ins throughout house, hopefully we will eventually put a tree up, too!
 
Hi everyone! I did 4 miles on the TM today. I did go to Walmart and Target like Roxie yesterday. Walmart was crazy! People pushing? We got out of there! Target was much more dignified! Tonite we are taking the kids moonrock bowling. Jody, don't give yourself a hard time, you are in school, taking care of kids and a house, you have a lot going on! Those dvd's will be waiting for you! I know, it is messed up about the cats, they are set in there ways. We can't change them, just our reaction to them. That is what I tell myself! Roxie, how is the dizziness? Murphy, you on the mend? Lisa, what are you up to? Have a good day! Mary
 
I did MM today. Question, is there a cardio only PM on AFterburn?

Jody, sleep is great! Yes I'm leaving Thursday, woo hoo! I know it's too bad we won't be in the Tampa area (in the past I was but all family has since left that area). I love your evergreen scent, I'm not putting a tree up again this year, just seems silly with just DH and I, not to mention I'll be gone for 8 days in Dec.

Mary, I thought the same thing that Jody said, however family dynamics are very diverse I know :)

So, I cleaned out one cabinet in my bathroom to make room for my curly hair products and decided to ditch the monthly stuff. Haven't used it in a year and a half, so gave to future DIL. Since I haven't used it guess I'm in menopause (and my thinner hair over the last year suggests that too), but I still get crampiness sometimes and moodiness at what I think would be "that time", Mary, do you have anything like that? I do have to say it was soooooo freeing giving those things away, then of course another part of me said, as soon as you give this away you will need it! (my luck) I figure 18 mths is long enough to hold onto them when I wasn't using them :)

Starting packing today! I need to be ready to roll EARLY Thursday and it will be hard working M-W.
