CABs and Abs -- it's Friday, I'm in love...

[RunninTeach]

...with the fact that it's Friday...I can wear jeans and sneakers...it's payday...and I have a professional day in my building, which means I'm out of the classroom and working on curriculum.

Good morning, girls!!!

Angie :: I actually split my workouts y'day...Did the KM premix in the AM and the BM2 premix in the evening...I have a bunion and arthritis in my left foot...it usually flares in the winter...but has been acting up lately. Probably b/c of being on my feet all day in heels. I also have suspected that my biomechanics in this foot are "off" because when I have a problem (like the AT or a tight ITB band), it's always this leg/foot... Oh man! I would so be at your party and gain 10 lbs. stuffing my face. Sounds like quite the spread!!...Which Baron DVD did you do yesterday?...I understand about wanting Cam to learn the lesson. Hopefully he does.

Hi to Lady Di, Wendy, Laura and Nancy. Hope those feeling under the weather are doing better today!!

This afternoon's workout will be HST. I'm startin' to feel a little DOMS in the outer thigh area. Where I need it!

Have a GREAT Friday, girls. BBL to catch up with you all.

Good Morning Cathy and all who follow.

Okay so after 2 days of rest and no change in my sickness, my motto for the day is going to be WORK OUT OR BUST!}( I am either going to get better once and for all or make this thing worse so that I can get out of the wedding I have to go to tonight! }(

Cathy: Enjoy your comfy jean sneaker no kids cirriculum workin' friday girl!:7

Diana: I have a single cup coffee maker that brews a cup at a time right into my mug. It is AWESOME!!! Never stale, burnt coffee and it only takes a minute to make some. YUMMY!:9

Speaking of which, I am off to refill the coffee cup right now!

BBL!

Hi Ladies,

I stayed up too late last night and didn't have the energy for a workout this morning. I hate when this happens. I have the phones from 11-3 and a meeting from 3-4 today. I was hoping to run today but may try to get out of the office early today instead. I've had a package in my car for 2 weeks that needs to go to the post office. I'd like to take care of that today.

Cathy-Wow, you've already moved up to BM2 YAY YAY YAY!!!! You will get all the moves soon enough. Your making the effort and that's what matters. I'm so proud of you!

Wendy-I hope you feel better soon. The single brew coffee maker sounds like a great investment. DH and I usually drink a pot a day. Of course his travel mug is 32oz which leaves me 2 cups o joe to start the day.

Laura-Are you feeling any better today. I haven't had a migraine since I was a teenager and am so grateful. Take care and feel better soon.

Angie-You have a busy day today. I'm sure your nascar party will be great with all the food and festivities. Your w/o's have been pretty intense lately-great job. My workouts have been sporadic at best.

Nancy-Hi Nancy!!!!

Diana

Happy Friday fellow Cabbers....

I was up and at it early this morning and got some errands in town done while nobody was at the grocery store. I love an empty grocery store! Also I got on the scale this morning and I have finally lost that Labor Day weight gain! I'm also down slightly from there so this is my lowest weigh in since last year! However, with the party this weekend and then having to deal with the leftovers after that.....I'm not sure how long that will last. I'm finally down to 144 now and 140 was my goal so I'm pretty comfortable in my skin right now. I forgot to have Cody take pre-P90X/Cathe pics....maybe I can get him to get some this weekend if I don't pig out too bad. I WONT be logging my calories in tomorrow for sure.
I went to work this morning to get the use tax audit out of the way....it took 4 hours, but it is DONE and I feel so relieved. It would have been weighing on my mind all weekend so I'm glad I got it over with. Now I have another audit that I got in the mail today for workers comp. At least I knew that one was coming and it's not due until December so I'm not freaking about that, but it seems like I just can't get caught up. I want a cleared off desk dern it all!!

Cathy - You don't usually do split workouts do you? I never have energy in the morning to workout. Mornings are just not my thing.;(
I think I have Barons hot yoga #3. He moves faster than Tony which I like. I don't match up with him on his breath counts though....he breathes faster than I do.
So did ya save up some points for this weekend too?

Wendy - Hmmmm...I might have to put a 1 cup coffee maker on my x-mas list. I don't know why I haven't thought of that before.
While I was at the store yesterday I bought a new crock pot. The one I have is huge and this one is a normal sized one and I needed it for the party anyways. It was only $15 and the pot comes out and goes in the dishwasher.....gotta love that! No fuss no muss.

Diana - I have the same DH coffee hog too. He gets up before I do so I get what he leaves. He knows better than to leave me an empty coffee pot on the weekends.
Hope you get some time off for yourself this weekend, especially since you've been so darn busy at work.

Laura - Sounds like DH may have to call in sick. It stinks having to be good when everyone around you is being BAD!}( You are in a Friday mood for sure. Sounds like we will both be watching TV and partying this weekend.
Glad your migrane is history!

I'd better get downstairs and get GS legs out of the way and then shower and start cleanmax.....again.

I'll be checkin in all weekend.;-) Have a great one all!!

Angie

Hey guess what, girls? I don’t feel like working out tonight. I might just bag it and double up again tomorrow. Why not?

Wendy :: so, are you wedding bound tonight or no?

Di :: thanks!!!! :7 :7 :7 My performance was oaf-ish at best, but hey, I’m learning!…Packed day for you. Were you able to get out there and run?

Laura :: high fives to my sister in jeans & sneakers!!…Glad the migraine is gone…although the hangover ain’t the best feeling, either…Nope, wasn’t me re: the dip. But I’ll partake in any convo involving FOOD any time! Enjoy the game ~ hope your team wins!! PS…I am with you on lovin’ the fall air. Don’t think it was quite that cold up here, though.

Angie :: congrats on your success at the scales!! Also glad the tax audit is out of the way. Doesn’t sound like much fun…No, I definitely don’t usually do split workouts. I like to do one and then be done, but I can see doing it occasionally as needed. I did save some points for the weekend…Gotta go calculate in a moment. I am going to have to guesstimate on today’s lunch. I ordered a mandarin chicken salad and ate two tiny garlic knot rolls. God, I love bread.

I also love the mint chocolate sundaes by WW. Forgive me if I already posted about this. It is my new obsession. Three points of heaven. I know not all of you are doing WW, but if you like chocolate chip mint ice cream, this is a nice, little indulgence. Ice cream, a little fudge, and some Oreo-style cookie crumbles. Yum yum yum in mah tum. Shop Rite has ‘em 2 for $5 right now. (There are two in a package.)

Hi Girls-it's 5pm and I want to go home. Unfortunately I have another hour and plenty of cleanup stuff to fill it. No lunch again for me today and I'm feeling soft from not working out enough. I hate when that happens.

Laura-I hope you have a wonderful football party weekend and hopefully your team will come through for you! I'm shopping this weekend with my sister for baby shower decorations and baby stuff. I get to buy pink things!!! Jerod has a football tomorrow but since they are not going to the superbowl, he's not really interested. He will most likely be recruited to play in the flatirons invitational league which starts after the regular season.

Angie-Way to go ms. angie-great job on the wt loss!!! I love my crockpot that comes out and goes in the dishwasher. You'll love it. It sounds like you are all ready for the party. Have a wonderful time.

Cathy-I love to do split w/o's. I like to start my day with cardio just to get the blood pumpin, and do weights at the rec ctr at lunch, or vice versa. You are doing awesome just attempting the step workouts. I know they are confusing at times, but trust me, some of them are quite fun

Wendy-did ya w/o??? Hope I didn't miss your post.

Have a great weekend ladies.

Diana

Hey Diana! Hope this last hour goes quickly for you. Buying pink stuff will be fun. I definitely see the value in split workouts, but I also really like being able to just take one shower...I absolutely did have fun yesterday, even goofing it up. I get it now - the attration to step - I truly do! LOVED the warmup, but of course, I guess that was easy by most standards. *lol* Somehow Basic Step and Body Fusion were just what I needed for an attitude adjustment.
