Alpha Omega Check-In (Mon, 5/4- Sun, 5/10)

[Iris_g1]

Hello Christine, I'm glad the weather turned out to be soo beautiful today. My daughter had a field-trip to NYC's Intrepid, and I was worried it was going to be stormy. I would have loved to go for a nice walk today, but I was running around all day.

I managed to do my workout today - Disc 30 (Sh/Bic & Tric), but I was speeding through it. Exactly what you're not supposed to do with Meso 3, but I had to cram the workout in. As it is, I ended up having to pause the workout, run to pick my son up at work, and then get back to the last few exercises remaining, plus ab work.

Thanks for your prayers on behalf of Leslie and my family She had been handling the treatments soo well, but I guess as the treatment goes on, your body gets weaker. They have such a long road ahead of them

My legs were a little sore today from hitting my legs again yesterday with TM and Elliptical work.

Hello Jennifer. How's work going? Did you find yourself swamped when you got back?

Have a great weekend ladies. Chat with you again tomorrow.

Hello Ladies,
Glad that it's the weekend!! This morning, my Directv is to be installed and so I will have Cathe on TV as well too. No grades have posted. Friday afternoon wore me out at work and the meeting was way too long. My indirect supervisor is sick but I don't think she got it from me since I haven't been around at all.
Have a Blessed Weekend and Mothers's Day!!

Jen

Have you guys seen the show "Bibleman"? It's a pretty cute show and great for kids to watch if they really want to learn scripture! I saw part of it on TV this morning and he used the above scripture. I went to Biblegateway to look up the exact passage and this was the same scripture they had as their "verse of the day"! It's worth meditating on!

Iris, do you have any plans for Mother's Day? Today is pretty humid and overcast but I think tomorrow is supposed to be nice! How are your arms feeling today? Sorry you had to rush through your workout, but at least you got it all done! I prefer shorter workouts myself!

Jennifer, how are you feeling? Get some more good rest this weekend!

This morning we went out to breakfast with my sister & brother-in-law, mom, and grandma. We took them out for Mother's Day (even though it's tomorrow). My brothers didn't make it, but we still had a nice time. I ate pretty bad! I had a "pancake wrap". It's eggs & cheese wrapped inside pancakes with home fries & butter/syrup on the side. I set aside a portion of it and ate that, the rest we took home for my hubby to enjoy later! It was YUM, but definitely carbs/sugar overload! I don't mind a good "cheat" once in a while though, anything is okay in moderation for me. However, I need to push myself to get my workout in or I will feel blah, LOL.

Today's workout will be Slim in 6 "Ramp it Up" & "Slim & Limber".

Hellos & blessings to all! Happy & blessed Mother's Day too!

Hello Jennifer & Christine. Soo glad the weekend is here.

Christine, it's good to get out with family now and then We all need a good cheat sometimes, lol.

I got my workout in earlier today. I had the hardest time deciding what to do. Ended up choosing 4DS - Cardio Power premix. The kickboxing segment along kicked my butt, and I was really not in the mood for the bootcamp portion. I modified a lot, and took many breaks. I don't know why, but I just didn't have a lot of energy today. I ended up putting in about 45 minutes and called it a day.

We're all at home today. Hubby & my son both have off today, and we all seem to be cranky, lol. On that note, I'm heading out for a little while to Payless shoes. I need new sandals.

Thanks for the Happy Mother's Day wishes Have a blessed day

Today has been a blessing so far. Directv went in and I found FitTV, which Cathe was doing CardioBlast from it with the crew. I think Cardio Blast is a take from Body Blast series. Also, my home can be fixed on the cheap as well. Groceries were cheaper too.
No school report but I have faith in HIM that my grade will be pleasing to HIM.
Happy Mothers Day!!
PS-My BIL told me that my neice is going through a "cat phase," I told him it might last a lifetime.

Hi Christine & Jen.

Jen, you're soo lucky to have Fit TV. I used to have that channel and loved it, but my cable network cut the channel.

I hope you are both having a good weekend. I went to church this morning with my daughter. Although I had to leave early to get to my hair appt. I cooked a light dinner, and am resting for the rest of the day, (hopefully). I had planned on working out today instead of tomorrow, since I have a doctor's appt. tomorrow evening, but I'm too tired to lift heavy, so I'll have to rest today and get on with Meso 3 tomorrow, regardless of how late I get home.

Have a great day ladies.

Praise our LORD!! My grade for Week 6 is a 97%, my total grade for QBR is 90%. As of Monday, I will be officially off of probation and officially back in school. The dream lives!!!

Hello ladies! Happy Mother's Day! (Jen, you and I are "fur moms" )

Iris, I'm glad you had a nice rest today, you should considering it's Mother's Day! Good for you for getting 4DS Cardio Power in on Saturday, that one is a toughie!! I remember when I wouldn't consider doing anything less than that intense for cardio, now I'm like the less the better to get the job done, LOL.

Jen, CONGRATS on the grade, I am so happy for you!! That is great news!

Today was a rest day for me, but I did do 1 1/2 segments of Stretchmax. That felt so good! I was kind of bummed though because this week I was up one pound from last week (I had actually lost one pound last week). I don't get it! I eat about 6 small meals per day and for the most part I eat healthy (like 90% -or more- of the time). I refuse to count calories, so we'll see how it goes at the end of my program. It was that darn pancake breakfast yesterday!! LOL My hubby and I stopped by earlier to see my mom and grandma again and then went to see my father-in-law. We just got back so we're in for the night now. Time to relax!

Hope everyone had a great day. Hellos and blessings to all!
