Kate, that’s so precious – I miss those days Glad 30/30 went well! And thanks about the girls. I am not good with pics They were laughing at me on vacation last month, saying we have to get at least one of you I am finally adding some more of our pics out there and will see if I can find one. Your girls are so precious – my daughters both said so!
Wendy, good job on staying with the clean eating! I like your rotation. And I need the workout push, I am feeling lazy today
Robin, I like your goals for January. I need to lose about 12 more pounds or so. It seems like lately I have only been able to lose about 1-2 pounds per month, but I am sure it is because I am not eating right.
Colleen, how did Step Moves go? I am still getting that one down.
Katie, hope nc is going well and do tell about new years
Becky, stop with the wii talk I want one – you are going to talk me into getting one. They had one at the rental house when we were on vacation and we all loved it!
Just had some almond butter. Haven’t had that in a while. They had it a costco the other day. After that settles going to workout, not sure what I am doing yet but likely will be some type of cardio.
Nina, glad you had a good run and good job on the cleaning!
Hi to everyone else! Hope the day is going well.

Quick drive by--I just got back from visiting my parents. My dad was driving me crazy today. Oh, well, hopefully the next time I go I'll have more patience.
I'll catch up on personals tomorrow. Happy New Year, everyone! I'm going to watch the Michigan State bowl game tonight. GO GREEN, GO WHITE!

Clintonya, I tried to make almond butter a while ago but it, um, didn't turn out very smooth! I should've used my larger, more powerful processor. Next time I guess. It tasted ok, but was a *little* chunky!
Tell your girls a big thanks on the compliments of my girls! I love your profile pic & you all look so happy in your pics. Don't you just love having girls?!?! (No offense to our boy-mamas!)
Anne, More patience is a daily prayer of mine! Something or someone is constantly trying to chip away at it!
Have fun watching the game tonight!

My girls are SOBBING about school starting back up. I want to homeschool but I don't feel like I would be good at it. I have some decisions to make.

Morning ladies.
Nina I will go back to working 3 days per week which is normal time for me. The said the store will not pick up until Mother's Day and Easter time. Thz for asking.
Kate that a hard decision to make. My nephew was home schooled due to his behavior but it did not work out. I think my sister did not have patience enough even though high school home schooling is done on the internet.
Clintonya it took me 1 year just to lose 10#. Maybe we are at our body's ideal weight but just don't want to stay this way.
Wendy do your roast zucchini with sea salt?
Plan to do MMA kickbox for the first time today
did you see Cathe new 3 month rotation I ma try that next month.

Morning ladies!! We are home from NC (got home last night around 9 pm), I just finished a 4.5 mile tempo run, and today will be filled with church, errands, then super-duper clean max!!
Chris and I have a long time to talk last night in the car (and Collin was watching a movie with headphones on, so no little ears to listen in on us). We have not really been "trying" for a baby, put not "preventing" for several months now. And then each month when we take a test and it's negative, we are disappointed. So we are *officially* ready to start TTC. I told Chris that I really really really want to lose 5-7 pounds, and he wants to also. So today we are starting what we will call "Baby Boot Camp" for 6 weeks to shed some pounds, then in Feb. we will really start trying in earnest. It's so exciting!! But Shhhhhh! We are not telling any of our "real life" friends or family, so I am only allowed to talk about it here.
Off to shower & get my day started. Be back later!

happy sunday, ladies! lazy day here. we got lots of snow and its another day off for dh (he works longer/overnight shifts but has way more days off now) so i think for me its cooking, baking and working out. and a shower, wheeeee =)
kate, enjoy your church and fam time! so sorry the girls dont wanna go BTS. personally, i could never home school, just dont have what it takes. ods was all excited abt going away abt a yr ago, now he is adamant he CANT go, CANT miss school, track, his friends, etc. typical teenager...so, he might stay here with my GF to finish out school and then come to for the summer. but nothings setinstone...
hi anne! i think we all need more patience, except for the saints among us... give yourself a break!
clintonya, did you get a wo in y'day? glanced quick at your pics and im excited for disney! super last minute because the deals are amazing right now(like i just booked 2 days ago), were going at the end of this month for a few days. meeting up with friends there. woohoo! love almond butter but its so expensive compare to peanut =( and i dont have anything powerful enough to make it myself.
thats it! when i get rich i want a vitamix!!!!!!!!! oh and a second bathroom in my house =)
same bfast - apples, oats, pecans, coffee
making apple/pear/cran crisp today with no butter and wh wheat/oatmeal topping, yes it will have sugar but... a little is ok, yes?
l - prob sandwiches with roasted veggies and ham
d - salmon loaf, baked pot, salad
no gym on sundays (no babysitting) and my rotation is messed up this wk due to not getting to the gym now for 3 days (holiday, then snow). interestingly, i feel my abs from y'days compound moves, didnt think i would feel anything anywhere because the wts were not heavy but all those twisting moves i guess? i should do more ub wts today, prob a cardio/ub circuit premix, C&W or LIC or BM...then i can slip right back into my gym class rotation tomorrow.

ohh katie, i am so excited for you. how will you do your bootcamp? i'd love to lose 5lbs
kate, enjoy your quiet day.
robin, that rotation of cathes does look good but i have no sts strength and i am not sure how to sub enjoy your day today. i did first 2 combos and drills of kb mma yday. it was good, but warning, the drills are highimpact though you can modify.
wendy, what wo will you do? a little sugar sounds okay to me, but i prob have more than i should.
clintonya, haven't had time to look at all the pics yet, but i will soon.
my dad stayed over so i had a super early am run. i did 11miles, and it was hard, prob from doing too much yday it was cold too - 26, which is cold for florida but felt wonderful to me.. i need to let it warm up a bit before i drag my kids outside to play. today i am officially starting to track my cals. my weight is up a bit, which shocks me b/c i thought i had been doing so good thru the holidays. it may be from doing too much though? what do you guys think? my plan is to track cals for a few days without trying too hard, and then just see how much i am eating. bbiab

Nina thx for the MMA heads up. Track calories and watch out for salt..that usually helps me.
Wendy the cable guy just called and told me to change the teleph plus and put it in the computer monitor...DUH that's what I did yesterday and that's why I was able to talk to him on the house phone. He said it's more safe to use one main phone jack and other phones just for plug ins....you know like the sets they sell at walmart.
Off to church.

Good Morning Everyone!
I did not sleep well last night and slept in this morning. Now I am late for grocery store and I still have not finished cleanmax. I might try to squeeze in a stretch today but it will definitely be a rest day. Yesterday's workout was Insanity UB and Step Moves. I wish Step Moves was more intense since I got my HR up during Insanity UB and felt like it came down by the end of Step Moves.
Katie, woohoo for baby bootcamp. It's good when you can talk without little ears listening.
Kate, good shopping trip yesterday. sorry the girls are disappointed about bts. I applaud your desire to home school. I don't think I could ever do it.
Robin, don't you hate it when repair people waste your time? Glad you are able to get to church. Your rotation this month looks good.
Clintonya, I just friended you on fb but haven't looked at the pictures. Will try to do that later. I just taught my uncle how to use fb over Cmas.
Wendy, I like the snow when it is falling but I agree it is a dirty mess when it melts. I vote for LIC.
Nina, you are brave to run in the cold weather. I don't run outside unless it is at least 30 degrees. Looks like it will be a while before we have temps that high in the am.
Anne, we all need more patience. Who won last night's game? I forgot to check.

Robin, I do sometimes wonder about the ideal weight. I try to just do the best I can each day and keep track of it, I have found that if I don’t stay on top of it, it is not good . I will check out that rotation. Glad you were able to get to church.
Like that plan Katie Have fun with it Good job on getting the run in.
Wendy, yesterday I did cario kicks. I am thinking about drill max for today. We love Disney - we always go during off season and usually stay off site at a rental to save $.
Nina, that is cold for Florida. Great job on running 11 mi at 26 degrees. I have found that it does help me to track calories, cause there are days that I think I ate too much, but I ate way too little and vice versa. It does take time though, but I don’t really eat out and usually eat the same things most weeks so it isn’t too bad.
Colleen, I must do grocery shopping today too, leaving soon. Great job on the 2 workouts!
Anne, sorry about visit – hope the game went good for you
Kate, yes, I think with the almond butter it is much better if smooth. I’ve never tried to make any – our food processor is not that good. Hope the girls are feeling better today.

Okay, I'm gonna love this Wii !!!!
We were trying the training for boxing..hitting the heavy bag & I BEAT DH 13-8 !!
He plays golf and is GOOD , and played baseball in HS, (got a full ride scholarship for pitching) and played on a tennis team, so I don't stand a shot in those against him. But I think I can SMOKE him in boxing !!!!!!! WHO KNEW ???? (thank you Cathe!)
