Morning girls,

SO, weigh-in/measure results:


  • 1 pound lost - I have to admit I was slightly disappointed in this. I know I don't have a ton of weight to lose but 2 straight weeks of clean eating, I figured there would be "better" results. BUT, my goal was 0.5# per week so this is right in line with that.
  • Down 2% body fat! This thrilled me!
  • Lost 5 inches in my waist and 4 in my hips!!!! :p
So, even though the scale didn't quite tell me what I wanted to hear, the other results speak for themselves and I'm happy. Fit test results were great too - improved on EVERY exercise. :cool:

Don't have much time this morning so I'll check in a little later but wanted to get us started.

Have a happy hump day everyone - we're halfway there Katie!
 
Way to go Angie !!!!! That's INSANE !!!:eek::eek:

Good morning Angie, Katie and everyone else who comes along this morning !

Root canal is done! I'm sore but Advil takes care of that .

Surprise email from my sister and they are coming TODAY instead of tomorrow.........so I am cleaning this morning !!!!! :p;)
Gotta mow the grass and get this place in shape and fast ! I hadn't done much yet this week due to feeling lousy with that tooth, but I can't put it off anymore !

Won't have much chatting time today and I'm glad my workout is short (CLX) .

Have a good one !!

Becky
 
ANGIE!!!! AWESOME!!!! Do not fret what the wicked scale says! HIGH FIVE!!!!
Are your clothes about totally falling off?!?!?!?

Hey Katie! Great article!

Becky, Glad the RC went well. EGADS to early visitors! Good luck w/ all your prepping!

-
so. tired. Stayed up too late last night!;):D It was worth it tho!:D:eek:
Hanging around the house today, I'm sure a trip to the grocery store will be in the mix!:p
Today is supposed to be a rest day but I may do some LB floor work.
 
Awwww, Kate!!!! You bad girl!;) Have a great home day.
Becky, have fun with your company. Glad you aren't in too much pain!

I did Disk 26 Plyo Legs this morning -- is it normal to yawn all the way thru a workout??
 
katie, 1 reason for yawning during a wo is because of not taking in enough air. make sure you are breathing deeply.
the other reason is not enouhg sleep!:p:p:p:p
 
Morning!

Sorry I didn't check in yesterday. I was grumpy in the morning and then was on the phone with my friend in Canada for an hour then my neighbor came by and stayed for 2 hours! I did manage to get GS Chest done before heading out for some more shoe shopping (still not done!) and allergy shots. No run, though:( I'm starting to not want to do the 5k-getting bored with running and feeling guilty about it. This happened to me last year too-after training for 7 weeks, I decided not to run it. Anyway, today will be GS Back, some pull ups, and abs. Not sure on cardio-maybe a run/walk or not. Taking the kids for Slurpees later to celebrate my last day of babysitting:) My dad stayed the night-he went golfing and had 2 shots of cognac and didn't want to drive home-he was hilarious last night! The girls were so surprised and happy to see him this morning!

Angie, great job! That's a lot of lost inches!

Kate, good reason to stay up late;) Enjoy the quiet before next week's storm!

Katie, so jealous that you can do Plyo Legs so early in the morning!

Becky, glad you're feeling better. Have fun with your sister today:)
 
Klaudia, Calm before the storm is right on!!! I am DREADING the 1st day of school! We're all going to be a bundle of nerves!
Sorry for the down day yesterday.
how much shoe shopping can 1 mama take!?
running too much is boring to me too....no sweat. scale it back to once or twice a week. you'll do fine on race day. i doubt danica would be able to keep up w/ your pace anyway. just have fun!:D

-
i had some sinfully delicious yet ohso clean apple oatmeal this morning. who needs cheats when clean eating tastes & feels so good?!
 
Good Morning Everyone!

Today was another recovery day and I did Core Cardio & Recovery and a 10 minute run. It is really hard to run for just 10 minutes. I wanted to do shoulders too but I was awake for about an hour around 3:00 am and couldn't get up this morning. Hopefully I will have time to do them tonight.

Klaudia, sorry you are bored with running. Enjoy your last day of babysitting!!!
Angie, it takes a long time for the scale to move but I lose inches pretty quickly. Keep up the good work.
Kate, enjoy your house day. Sorry you were up too late last night.
Katie, sorry about Collin's illness. I hope he is feeling better today.
Becky, glad your mouth is feeling better. Hope you can get everything done before your sister arrives.
 
goofd morning all.

colleen, what is it with 3 am? i was up then too, fell back asleep around 3:45 only to have ds get up at 4. nursed him, then i hit the pavement:eek: i hated the early parts of running ab=gain after my foot break - 1 mil, then just 2, then uwards. hang in there.

kate, glad you had a nice night;) great motivator with the eats.

angie, those inches are flat out amazing!! ditch the scale.

katie, ikwym about yawning.

klaudia, how many pairs of shoes do you needfor the kiddos? i got a huge bag from an old client - i think it will carry my guys until 2nd grade.

becky, how long will your company be there?

well, i did well with my resolutions yday. starting to get stressed and discouraged about a job. i will keep the eats together. also i am really frustrated with my mom. here is my rant - she is totally focused on babysitting my kids. now, i have a 15mon old and a 3.2 yo. my mom cannot lift more than 6lbs b/c of a compromised abdominal wall. she is fairly close to needing a wheelchair, she is mentally unstable, and she is unreliable. so, can she babysit my kids? no! i tell her this literally every time we talk. then, the next phone call she makes some refernece to babysitting my kids yet again. she manipulates me by saying my other siblings let her (not sure if that is tru or not, but the youngest kid they have is 5), and then says she "needs" to feel useful. well, excuse me for not wanting my kids to be pawns in her feeling better about myself:mad: and i feel unsympathetic and angry with myself. she makes me reject her, then she blames my father. sigh.

that is my rant. nice 11mil run this am, abs, and some leg work. i have a lunch meeting with the president of the local vet group. i hate networking, but i must. my goal is to keep it clean and tidy. i have a lot of car time today, and that can be a huge trigger for snacking for me. any suggestions? bbl
 
dudettes!!!! wheres everyone at???!!!
:p:p:p:p:p

errands. clean lunch. made cookies. ate 2. ooooops. dang it! oh well, moving on!

colleen, i was up @ 3 too! popular time!

nina, hang in there! my mom has offered at different times to watch dds but kinda the same issue.
hope your lunch goes well! as far as snacking....drink lots of water and eat high water content fruits so you get full fast. watermelon comes to mind - yum!

steph, you ok???
 
I'm here! Just got done with lunch-big salad:) The big kids are at their friends' and the younger ones are blasting some music in the basement-I can feel the base in my butt as I sit here! No one wants to play outside-they're gonna be sorry in a few weeks when it's freezing out! I can't wait til 5:30!!

Colleen, funny how we're all different-yo're bummed about running only 10 minutes and I'm bummed about running more!

Nina, sorry about your mom. The safety and wellbeing of your kids is top priority so don't feel bad. My FIL has never babysat or driven the kids anywhere-don't trust him and I don't feel bad about it either. How'd your meeting go?

Kate, that's why I picked Slurpees-no temptation like the frozen custard place I was thinking about! Although I might have Darrin go out for some tonight for the two of us;)
 
Angie - That is awesome! I would totally take the inches over the pounds!
Katie - I was yawning through my workout last night, lol.
Kate - I have yet to get to clean eating tastes oh so good, lol. How's the girls?
Klaudia - I was addicted to slurpees and icees while pg this last round. Now I can't stand them. Isn't that funny? Hope you find some great shoes!
Colleen - I hate when that happens - getting up in the middle of the night and unable to go back to sleep.
Becky - Have fun with your sisters!
Nina - I'm so sorry about your mom. Family can be frustrating. Hope your networking leads to a really great job opportunity.

Sorry I've been a little MIA. I did some ub last night and got my uphill stroller walk in the other day. Don't ask about eats. My meals are really good. Ummm.....ice cream not so good. Anyway, gotta get ready to head out. Working in the office today and got some projects to finish up. Here's my vent re: family. Well my sister has not been the best person when it comes to finances and I've lent her money before which I never got paid back, but I lent it to her knowing that even though she said she'll pay me back, kwim? Anyway, recently she quit her job and is being a SAHM. She said she is trying to be frugal and all that but just bought a MAC laptop and things like that. Anyway, I spent the day with my mom yesterday and we were talking about some things. My sister when she got married last year borrowed some money from me, around $200 that she said she would pay me back for. Well, of course she never did and I just shrugged it off because I knew I wouldn't see it. My mom asked me yesterday if I ever got the money and I said no and wasn't expecting it. My mom said she told my sister that she better pay me back and my sister told my mom that she is going to pay me back. Well, I found out she spent $600 on pics for her baby and the laptop and all these other things which really ended up bothering me. I guess it didn't bother me before because I expected it, but when my mom told me my sister is well aware she owes me money but keeps buying stuff for herself, I can't help but feel annoyed. :mad: Sorry for the long vent but had to get that off my chest. No more money from me. She also spent couple thousand dollars for her home birth which she paid cash with. So whatever, no more money from me. She always asks for me to front her and buy something then she'll pay me back, but she never does so next time she asks, I'm just going to say, sorry I don't have money to spare. Would you guys do the same after knowing all this??

Lisa
 
Lisa, ice cream is my downfall too! And I'm craving a brownie sundae:) My best friend's sister is the exact same way as yours! She has loaned her money only to have her plan a Disney vacation, get plastic surgery, etc. But they had to foreclose on their last house! Crazy! I wouldn't give her another dime, but that's me. Once bitten, twice shy!

So I was going to go to 7-11 with the kids to celebrate right? The older boy just comes in and asks go to 7-11 for a Slurpee with his friend! What a brat! I am so done! Same kid who told his mom she was ugly and then to shut up! 3 more hours to go!
 
Hey guys, checking in. Don't really have time/energy to personalize. Will do that in the AM.

School starts tomorrow, had to sign up girls for dance class tonight, and I'm just tired.

Thanks so much for all your encouraging comments about my inches. You guys are the best!!!!

I'll check in tomorrow!
 
lisa, re family: at least you can choose your friends! i wouldnt be loaning a dime.

klaudia, sorry abt the bratty kid! we know some off those too....:rolleyes::rolleyes:
have a nice mini-date w/ your hub tonight!

angie, fingers crossed for a happy 1st day of school for you!:D

-
going to ginas school to se who her teacher will be. fingers crossed for mrs. barnes!:p
 
Me!:) How do you make your cornbread? I just use Jiffy:) Of course, my neighbor still isn't home! Tick tock!
 
Hey ladies sorry for the late post....I really need to lean to use my phone internet.

What a day I had...my supr either loves me or hates me. She gave out workie talkie that weight about 10 # ;) and she calls me every 10 mins. Once I was coming out of the bathroom and she wanted to know where I was....so I said in the walkie talkie...I just used the bathroom. Most of the supv has one so they all heard me. :cool: I don't care . By this afternoon all of my coworkers was calling her just to get on her nerves. So it was kinda fun.:p

Wow Lisa Colleen Klaudia...(((Group hug)))

Lisa I would be so pissed off.BTW

Hey katie and kate and angie and ???

Becky glad your dental stuff is done.
