**~~**C_T_TGIF**~~**

all this talk abt live classes! i love them!
and i never loan out my cathes! any dvds actually. well, 'cept for katie or you other gals bec you KNOW how to treat them!:D


kl, the fair is in lk odessa.
good luck w/ the kids today! hope you get your wo!

patti, ck is another one i havent done in a long time!


lotsa husework done & abs too.
dds rm is next! gotta get em in from outside. so nice out today!
 
LIC upper body circuit done. It just gets rid of the leg combo moves and no abs. So, it cuts about 10 minutes off I think. Still pretty awesome - 549 cals! I'm not complaining. The chest/back work isn't so great b/c it's not heavy (did I just say that?:p) but the other stuff had me burning!

I think I'll do a kb tomorrow. Never done CK but I love KPC... we'll see.

Nina, I'm so sorry about dial up. I think I would die. I'm so spoiled. Keep up the good WOs though. Moving is so stressful. I'm impressed with your consistency. I need to learn to not have excuses.

Robin, gross about your cat! My mom has been telling me their cat has been doing the same thing. My heart would break. I hate dead animals of any kind. Great job with WOs!

Katie, LOL on QT with Chris. Ryan would keep me in bed every morning were it an option. Have a great weekend!

Klaudia, we haven't had that many problems with mosquitos. Isn't it crazy the things you take for granted about the US? The French are weird. Good luck with your WO!

Patti, I LOVE live classes. My MIL has a membership at Lifetime and she takes me with her when I'm home. I especially love the multi-step classes... be still my heart! Last time I went, the instructor asked me if I had been practicing at home since I followed so well (and she knew I was new)... all thanks to Cathe!

Colleen, sorry about the car issues. But I'm glad you're feeling better! Hang in there! Are you happy with your car? How long have you had it now... I don't even remember what you ended up getting...:eek:

Ok, time for a shower and mid-day snack. BBL!
 
Angie, can you post the link to your blog again? I'd love to see the video. Or did you post it earlier this week? I've lost track. Great work out!

Kate, isn't it beautiful out today? When would you like to do lunch? Is during the week better than the weekend? Whatever works for you, darling!

Klaudia, good luck with all the kiddos today. Better you than me! You know I only like specific children, I don't care for the species in general. I hope that doesn't offend anyone...

Patti, I have a love/hate relationship with KPC. I have a shortened version on the Timesaver DVD and prefer that one. I'm a step girl at heart. I do KB because I know it's good for me, but I don't really love it.

Nina, sorry about the dial up. 2.5 weeks, really? That time will fly, I know you have a lot to do between now and then. I'm dreading packing, but it will all be fine, right?

Robin, that's funny about AA babies--wait, that's African American, not Alcoholics Anonymous! And your kitty? Yikes! It's easy to forget that pets were predators in the wild.

Katie, you are so busy, woman! I wish I had half your energy. Mine will come back, I just have to get consistent with my work outs. Have fun at your dad's birthday party! I hope he enjoys it. We threw my dad a surprise party for his 75th five years ago and it was wonderful. He still talks about it. ;-)

Colleen, I hope your car fix isn't too traumatic. Is the concert tonight or tomorrow? I hope you have fun.

Hi Lisa and Kath!

So Tuesday night I did PUB up only, but no abs. I can't remember the last time I did ab work. Maybe I'll do some today or tomorrow. Wednesday I tried to run, but I quit after less than 2 miles. The blister on my foot was sore and my right leg was killing me. But I went for a bike ride yesterday and did 10 miles. I know Nina runs farther than that on an off day, but I didn't feel like going, so I was proud of myself. I'm going to try to run 3 or 4 miles today. We'll see how it goes.

Okay, work calls. See you in a bit.

anne
 
Anne: I feel the same way about KB- I don't mind it but always prefer step. :D I find that with KB workouts I need a lot of variety in order to be OK with doing it- now I won't be able to do KPC for at least a month, maybe more. WTG on getting those WOs in, amiga. It will make you feel better for sure!
 
ha ha anne. i think a 10 mil bike ride is awesome. i need to start spinning again. sigh. as for the packing, it sucks. we will luckily have some help, thank you military! can you [ost pics of the condo?

angie, great wo!! how are the french lessons?

klaud, i am still freaking out over the 2 lbs. it is just that i have been really careful lately.... ah well, i will keep at it. what do you need to go to the dr for?

kate, feedback on our home is good, but people are taking their time. great job on the clean max!

colleen, how is the job search going?

patti, i am psyched for you on the road trip.

i did dm total body premix, cleaned the house, and am now off with aidan until nap time. fd max this weekend. i am trying not to let it get the best of me, though. eats are great so far. bye bye 2lbs!
 
Wah! Can I whine? And, yes, I would like some cheese with it, please.

I just tried to go running again. I didn't even get close to 2 miles this time. The blister was fine, but my left foot was just achy and my right shin has this fabulous stabbing pain. It still hurts right now. I think I might have shin splints. Oh joy. You know what? I just don't think my body can handle long distance running right now. Klaudia, don't worry, I can do the 5K in Sept. if you still want me, but I'm about to give up. I'll still go to the half marathon and try to do some of it, but I'm just not up for this right now. Maybe next summer when my life isn't a train wreck. Or later this fall. I don't know, I'm just frustrated. It's my own fault for not keeping up with weight lifting and not keeping to my training schedule. I feel like such a loser about everything right now and now I can't even train the way I want to! Why don't I get to have things my way?

Wow, that was whiny. I'm sorry. I guess I haven't gotten over the wallowing in self-pity part yet. I'll work on it. One more thing I have to do...

Nina, when I make a decision I'll post pics of the condo. I think I forgot to say I'm going to look at some more on Sunday afternoon.

I'll bb when I can be positive.

anne
 
oh anne, hugs! you have every right to voice your displeasure. nothing feels worse than feeling like you have no control! and you have had a lot of yours taken away:( you running plan sounds smart. you do not want to hurt yourself. also, right now exercise should be a refudge for you, not something you have to do, kwim? and a loser would not be in therapy, trying to find a new place to live or keeping up ith friends and family. you are not a loser. you are a hard worker. we all know that here, and i for one do not mind reminding you of that daily:) take it easy, okay?
 
Angie, WTG on LIC! Another one I havent done in a long time! Starting to like heavy weights????:p

Anne, No one will fault you for not doing the race. You are under enormous stress and the fact that you even get dressed impresses me! You are doing great! And that bike ride sounds wonderful!

Nina, Good luck w/ the fd! Personally, I can't wait for our vacation and just think of our little family.
Good job on good eats!

-
Ahhhh.... house is clean, rocking Julia, life is good!

Mikes not doing his 5K tmrw. He timed himself and he's not happy with it so he wants more time to train. Silly man!:p
 
Anne: Pretty much ditto what Morris said! You come here and be however you need to be- don't worry about being negative or whining. If it helps you to vent or talk to us, then have at it!

Kate: Men are funny- hilarious he won't run it tomorrow. Maybe you should!

Thinking of doing PUB tomorrow but trying something different- go heavier than usual, do up only AND break up the super sets. So when she does the bench press right after the flies, I rest. Then back chapter and rest when she does the press and do the flies.

Gotta go get ready for our concert tonight- so happy to be going out with my cute hubby. Made crock pot lasagna for dinner so we can eat before we go. It smells good!
 
Angie good going with the calorie burn.

Anne :DAlcoholics Anonymous:p...you did a great w/o today. Sometimes, like today when I skipped my core work I just do it in the evening and I use 20# weight to do rev. crunches. Cathe said Stop-ya-wine-ing and take it easy on yourself. Just rest for a few days and start again.


Nina I so want the spinner that I see on infomercial.

Patti enjoy your music tonight and tell Billy I said Hey.;)

Tomorrow my w/o will be a quickie Push Circuit and we are out the door. I'm going to meet my sister in VA's Kings Dominion and then spend the night over her house. So I may not be able to check in until Sunday.
 
Woo hoo! Boys are going home early! Now I just have to deal with my screaming mimi;) Had a few too many carbs this afternoon-some goldfish, a handful of popcorn. Boredom eating. I'm heading down now that Nevena has finally stopped singing to get my workout done. No idea what to have for dinner-we have nothing in the house and we're having pizza at a b-day party tomorrow.

Anne, do not beat yourself up! If you're up for the 5k, great. If not, no biggy!

Kate, Mike is really competitive, huh? I bet your time is better;)

Nina, I think I have bronchitis and have been putting off the doc. Will go next week. Don't let the family drama get to you!

Patti, I like your plan with PUB. Let us know how it goes. Have fun tonight!
 
.....rocking j still .....

patti, hope you have a great date night!! that dinner sounds great!
maybe I WILL do that race tomorrow...hmmmmm

Robin, WTG w/ planning & getting your WO in tmrw! Hope you have a fun day!

Klaudia, My time IS better than Mike's! :D i think he thinks he sould be able to do it in 20 minutes or something.:rolleyes::rolleyes:
no clue on dinner here either....
lol @ N singing!
 
Thanks, guys, I'm just having a hard time today. I'm working at home so there's no one to talk to and no chance to get outside of my head, ya know? I'll get over it. I just didn't know after you got married one person could say, oh, this is hard I don't want to do it anymore. I mean, I did know it, I just didn't think it would happen to me. Oh, well, I'll be fine. In the long run I'll be happier, it's just hard to get from here to there.

Onward and upward! I am going to a girlfriend's house tomorrow night for Girl's Night. That will be fun. It's an hour away, but that's okay.

Patti, have fun on your date night. ;)

Kate, I'm sure whatever you make will be delish!

Klaudia, make tacos. That's my fallback.

Robin, have fun in VA! I love roller coasters. I need to go to Cedar Pointe this summer.

Morris, thank you. I really appreciate you giving me some perspective. It's hard to lose in the middle of things, isn't it? Hugs to you for your family drama weekend, I hope you can find some solace with your boys.

Okay, I'm going to wrap up work stuff and watch some mindless television. Have a good one, everybody!

anne
 
anne, hugs, babe! no one goes into marriage expecting it not to last. im so sorry. your GNO will be good for you. anything special planned?
 
my sister just called.... my mom is in the hospital and they think she has meningitis .... ???????
we were going to go to some fireworks tonight .... not sure now..... waiting for a call back from libby to hear what's going on.
 
Thanks, Klaudia. I just talked to my stepdad Ken - she does have meningitis - they're now trying to figure out if it's bacterial or viral.

Ken is going up to sit with her at the hospital and my sister is coming to stay w/ Sleeping Beauty Julia so we can take DDs to the fireworks. They are so excited. I feel bad going with my mom at the hospital but I suppose there isn't anything we can do for her anyway. As late as it's getting she'll hopefully get some sleep.
 
Angie - 549 calories is awesome!
Katie - That's cute that you and DH make that time. We've been baaaad about that, but hopefully tonight we'll go out alone even if its to Target!
Patti - I love classes! Wish I could go more but with three kiddos it's tough. I went to spinning a month or so ago and wish I could go more. It would be so fun if we all went to a class together!
Anne - You are going through so much yet you are determined to keep pushing through. no worries on letting it out when you need to.
Klaudia - Something simple for dinner perhaps? Hope you got your wo in.
Kate - Hope your mom is okay. Enjoy the fireworks and too funny about M not doing the run!! Cuteeeee baby! Isa too is a doll!
Robin - Have fun!
Morris - Dial-up, yikes! How do you find time to wo with both boys home? Does DH watch while you go running?
Hi Colleen, Kath!

P is doing tons better, YAY!! My wo schedule is so funky now. I think I will run this afternoon when DH gets home then do some ub weights. My neighbor came by yesterday and said I'm looking skinny. How ironic since I've hardly wo'ed, but thanks to all that nursing! I did drop some weight but feeling a little soft now. Anyhoo, wish me luck on the eats though this weekend. Another family party tomorrow.

Lisa
 
Take in those compliments, Lisa! Good for you!

No fireworks! I must've got confused - they are Sunday instead. Oops! We did get to ride fair rides and eat junk food tho! DDs thought they'd landed in Carnie Heaven! We had so much fun!
