Morning everyone,

We're off to a party today in Brussels for the second weekend in a row. Ryan's staying home. He needs his alone time.

This morning was SJP/SB cardio circuit. It was fun. I wish there was some step from SJP but it's just the hi/lo parts. My legs are feeling some major DOMS today from my leg work yesterday.

Ryan said I could buy a couple DVDs for mother's day. I want to try some Amy Bento. Which 2 should I get? I'm looking at In the Ring, Hi-Low Extreme, Hi-Low Knockout, Advanced Step 3. Thoughts??

Alright, gotta make lunch and get the girls ready to go.

Have a great weekend!!
 
Good Morning Girls !!!

Happy Mother's Day Weekend !!!! :) :)

Angie, I hope you & the girls have fun at the party. How far is Brussels from you ?? I don't care for hi/lo , so I always sub the step for the hi/lo in that premix . I'm sorry, I don't have any of those Amy's.

No formal workout today but we are going to walk .
Also going to Brayden's football game and have some errands.

We bought my mom a 2 person swing for their deck for Mother's day, so today we'll put it together and then tomorrow morning when they go to church we'll bring it over and set it up. I hope she likes it !! She likes to sit out and read in the sun and right now she just has the chairs that go around a table- wrought iron. Not the most comfortable.

I'm sorry, I don't remember who asked about last months rotation. I didn't do Cathe's. I did one I found on OD. I LOVED it !
Am going to start FF's new Getting Ready for Summer rotation starting Monday!
Didn't eat any of the CC cookies either........they just aren't my weakness. Now BROWNIES are a WHOLE other story!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) :)
 
What a yucky day-gusting winds and overcast skies:( Glad I have no plans to go out! My brother's coming over later but that's it. I need to do S&H Legs and 4DS KB later. Yesterday I ended up doing LIC Upper and 10 minutes of jump roping.

Angie, have a good time! Darrin's been getting plenty of alone time-every weekend he's up north, today included. He so owes me! He even told me to buy what was in my VS cart-all $254!:eek: Think he's feeling guilty?

Becky, what a nice gift! My mom and aunt don't even want cards! I'll be going over to help my mom clean out her kitchen-her remodel starts soon. That's all she wants! Brownies are my kryptonite!
 
katie ((((hugs)))), hope the visit goes well.

becky, brownies are up there or me, too. esp. with walnuts... thats why im NOT making them anytime soon.

klaudia, hold on, let me add some stuff to your cart =) i hope when i smoke this BL competition DH will take me shopping.

angie, have fun in brussels! i dont have any amy but i really want In The Ring - its the only one of her cardios that seems to have a modifier. from clips i can see she does a lot of jumping and hi-lo stuff in her cardio DVDs.

great wo yday w/ the trainer -- strength circuit, all body weight except tri dips on that pull up machine. i have fierce doms in my pecs and front shoulders from all the pushups and tri dips. yowza. he was a kid and seemed surprised i had good form and commented on it. and he said "i can tell you worked with a trainer before". LOL, little does he know my trainer is cathe friedrich and she trained me 5-6x a week for years! went to bodyflow after the training session.

pretty sure today is gonna be a rest day for me. i might take JJ to the strawberry festival so at least some walking, nd maybe some yoga later. i havent had a rest day in like 2 weeks.

eats yday
b - grk yog, strawb
l - salad w/ baked tofu, pecans, cranberries, feta
d - roast beef, swiss, lett, tom, mustard, wh bread
then i ate again... really hungry after that wo i guess... a small piece of salmon with some rice. left the rest for my lunch today.

today
b - same
l - salmon, rice, bok choy, peppers
d - not sure yet, need to shop
 
Hi Everyone!

Busy morning since we went to Costco. Got up early and did a 2 mile run followed by ASC 3 Combos 1, 3, 5 and powerups. Tonight we are going to MIL's to celebrate Mother's Day.

Anne, don't feel guilty about asking for help. You can't do everything and it is good that you take some time and do something fun.
Angie, I like ASC 3 and HLX (Hi Lo Extreme). I did not like In the Ring and HLKO. I am not a fan of HiLo and there was too much choreo that was not kickboxy enough in HLKO. INR I did not like because I did not like the med ball segments. Also you asked about SZ a couple days ago. It is Seasun Ziegler. She has a couple of CIA step DVD's that are fun.
Clintonya, do you get a break from dance after next week's show? Or will you go right into the next session?
Becky, that's a nice gift for your mom. Enjoy your walk today.
Klaudia, what a nice gift from Darrin! Sorry he is away again this weekend. Is he almost done?
Nina, I hope your day goes by quickly at work.
Katie, I hope you have a good visit with Frank.
Wendy, what a great compliment from your trainer. Glad he worked you hard.

Someone asked about my eggs the other day. I usually do one full egg and then 1-2 egg whites. I throw out the extra yolks.
 
Brrrrrrrrrrrrr ! I don't know if we'll still get a walk in ! Temps are DROPPING and the wind is FIERCE! It's now in the 40's ! YUCK!!!!

We went to Costco this morning too ! Got all stocked up and came home and got a quick lunch.
Dh is putting the swing together (good man!), and I will get to the library sometime, will walk IF it warms up .....and go to watch Brayden play.

I just copied a recipe for Chocolate Walnut Espresso Brownies that I KNOW I shouldn't make and will regret but I have to !!!!!!!!!
They just sound so good !!

Katie- have a good visit
Klaudia- place your order, quick before he changes his mind !!! :)
Wendy- enjoy the strawberry festival. sounds fun!!
Colleen- great workout !
 
mmmm, brownies.....

angie, to totally contradict colleen, i loved hi low ko - it is some of the best hi lo, and i love the knock out segs, and love the premixes. it is really intense. in the ring is fun, sort of sneaks up on you. i really think amy is good and sweaty fun - you cannot really go wrong. have fun today.

katie, good luck!

colleen, great wo this am.

becky, what else can you do on those days but bake?

wendy, wtg with the wos and eats.

i am so tired even though i slept well. i ran this morning and did some bw workout stuff. planning on yoga but losing motivation. i worked this morning, just finished bill max and have some phone calls to make. we looka t a house soon and then are taking the kids swimming with one of finn's friends. yday eats were 100%. today got too snacky this am, but it will be fine later - i feel too yucky to eat. i am supposed to clean but will put it off until tomorrow as aidan is sleeping now. bbl
 
We are home! WAAAAH!:p We left FL when it was 95 & sunny - it is windy & gray and BLAH here! Got some errands done & need to do a few more - need to restock the fridge.

Wendy, WTG on good form! Awesome!
Colleen, Nice WO! Hope the celeb goes well
Katie, Hope it goes ok visiting Frank! Hug Collin for me & gve Skunk a rub too!
Angie, Have fun at the party! That's nice of you to let Ryan off the hook!
Klaudia, I dont think D's feeling guilty! All VS - he's feeling HORNY! LOL!!!!!
BEcky, I want some baked goods!!!!! That swing is an awesome gift!
Nina, Great WOs as usual! I miss your state!!!!!!
 
Hi~

Angie, hope you had a good time at the party!

Anne, nothing wrong w/sharing the responsibility w/your brother and sister. Try to sneak in and give us an update of TCB so we can have some excitement too :D

Becky, what a nice present for your mom :) And it’s something you can enjoy together!

Klaudia, yes, that sounds like guilt :) Or he just wants you to get the stuff for him :)

Katie, how was the visit? Hope Collin is doing ok.

Wendy, great compliment from the trainer to you :D The strawberry festival sounds fun!

Colleen, yes, we get a nice break! They have a show on Fri, 2 on Sat, and one of Sun and then we don’t have dance again until after our vacation! So June 14!

Nina, you have had a busy day-it’s no wonder you are tired! Hope you liked the house!

Kate, sorry for the big temp adjustment! Hope you are settling in!


I needed to go to costco too, but will go tomorrow. Just did a quick grocery trip at the one across the dance studio since we were out of pretty much everything! Didn’t get a w/o in yesterday, but did the giveme10 w/o download from exert v today. Just in case someone may have missed it, there was a recall of lettuce because of e-coli in quite a few states. Will try to have a date night w/dh unless we both fall asleep. Hope everyone has a good night!

Clintonya
 
Clintonya,I hadnt heard that about lettuce! But then again, I never hear anything about anything!:p
Did you get a date night?

-

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!!!!! Hope you all have a fantastic one!
The fam let me "sleep in" (LOL) and brought me bfast in bed - eggs w/ bacon & green pepper and a bowl of pineapple. They had a nice mountain of gifts for me - a new outfit from JCrew and loads of stuff from Williams-Sonoma. Lots of cute cards too!

The rest of the day will be church and various Moms Day stuff for our moms. Laura and I are going shoe shopping in the afternoon too - FUN!

Today will be my last day of WO slothdom and non-clean-eating. I am ready to get back at it!

Better go survey the mess in the kitchen!:p

LOVE YOU ALL!!!!
 
Happy Mother's Day !!!!!

Kate, it sounds like a great start to your special day !!!!! :) :)
I'm so glad you had a fantastic vacation- after the very rough start !
Are you all tan ???
It was so cold yesterday at Brayden's game that we froze and actually left a little early !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It felt like winter and I felt like a snowman !!!
Today is only going to be in the 50's (two days ago it was 84 !!) and tonight there is a frost warning !!!!! My poor garden !!

Anyway, we are taking my parent's out to dinner, me , dh and youngest daughter. Will be fun ! We always have fun with them ! :)
Were going to plant their garden today but probably not now.
Maybe a walk later ................at least it's not windy like yesterday !!!

I hope everyone's Mother's day is relaxing and fun !!!
 
Happy Mother's Day!

Kate, great breakfast. Hopefully they cleaned up too.
Becky, it is cold here too. Enjoy your family dinner.

This morning I did Shiva Rae yoga Fire & Water from FitTv. I liked that much better that the last one I did.

Have a great day everyone!
 
happy mothers day!

kate, welcome back, and what a great day for you. what kind of shoes are you getting?

becky, glad the wind is down - enjoy your day.

colleen, i will have to try that yoga wo. what did you like about it? what did you not like about the other one.

nice morning here. i got up super early and ran 16 miles. we had a nice breakfast, then after chor5es we went to the park and had a picnic lunch. dh leaves soon so we are all kind of sad. i plan to take the kids to the playground this afternoon or swimming. the house i saw yday was absolutely adorable. it is too much money, but maybe they will come down in price. i have to look at another one tomorrow. eats are clean so far excapt 1 small tart yogart cone, and 2 pieces dark choc. i need to be careful b/c i get super munchy after a long run. bbl
 
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!

Spent a nice day with my brother yesterday-no workout and un clean eats but it was worth it:) Today I got coffee in bed and sweet gifts-Danica made a card and a coupon book for me to redeem, Milla made me a baby jar candle holder and 10 Reasons I love Mom, and Nevena got me a beaded key chain and a tea bag:) Then we went out to breakfast with my mom, grandma, and brother. I had pancakes with strawberries and almonds and bacon. Hanging out with them now then we'll be going to my sil's for dinner.

My weight is way up:( Tomorrow I start fresh-I'm going to restart my rotation since this week got messed up and my eats are going to be SUPER CLEAN!!
 
Hi Girls! Having a nice day & I'm excited for my dinner out tonight!

Becky, YES I am tan and I loooove it! I am normally so pasty white its scary. We had frost all over this morning - YUCK! I am READY for summer!
Sounds lkie you have a nice day ahead - enjoy!

Hi Colleen! Hi Clintonya!

Nina, Shoes - something pink I think!:D
Sorry for D going away! Hope its not too long this time!

Klaudia, Glad you're having fun w/ your brother! What nice gifts from your girls!
 
Happy Mother's Day to all the mamas!

Whew! What a whirlwind. I just have a few mins because I just got home from the hospital, where my dad was released from ICU. He's in a regular room now, which is very good news. He's improving, but will have to go to rehab for a few weeks after this. We're trying to see if he can do it in PA because my sister took my mom back home with her today. If he can do it there then my sis can take my mom to see him. We'll see how that goes. My brother is going to go to the hospital tomorrow, Tues and Wed and then I'm going Thu and Fri. TCB is going with me on Thu. We almost canceled his trip, but then changed our minds. I'm very tired and have a ton of stuff to do. Can I do personals in the morning? I hope everyone has had a fabulous weekend.

anne
 
Kate, yes we actually managed to stay awake :) Breakfast in bed sounds nice :)

Becky, hope spring comes back for you soon!

Colleen, hope you were able to catch up on some rest this weekend!

Nina, you got in a great run!! I hope they will come down in price. Hope your dh won’t be gone for long.

Klaudia, sorry about your weight, I will be joining you this week cause this weekend hasn’t been so good :)

Anne, I am glad you all didn’t cancel his trip! It will all work out!

Busy day here! Mother’s day stuff, sewing costumes, and doing hair! Hope everyone had a good weekend!

Clintonya
