Murph!!
Hey Murph!
Little Brandon got Michelle a silver picture frame that says "baby" on it. It has 4 variously sized frames for baby pics. Matthew got her a set of 3 candles for the dining room and I got her six hanging candles for the kitchen as well as a scented candle for the stove, where she always likes to keep one! So....candles were popular on Mother's Day!
She loves them and so do I so they were perfect. Candles are quite relaxing actually. I like laying in bed late at night with candles going, just watching the flame flicker shadows on the wall. It de-stresses me....then I am wide awake the next day again....ready to kill a co-worker!! I am kidding of course! ;-)

FINALLY
Hello all. You've seen my posts off and on for a year now, I usually don't do check ins because I had to turn off my home computer and sneak on from work when I can.
After 6 solids months of eating clean as a whistle and working really hard I finally lost the 20 pounds that wasn't budging. Another ten and I am where I am supposed to be. Let me tell you, it's been tough. Finally it all just flew off (the old metabolism finally kicked in). To everyone out there trying to loose right now, HANG TOUGH!!!
My deal is the live gym on Monday for double step--
Spin on Tues-
Cathe on Wednesday--
KickBox on Thursday, Gym or Cathe-
Friday off
Saturday Step at the GYm and Body Pump right after
Sunday- Leg day (weights) at the gym
Plus I do 45 minutes or so of Yoga 2-4 mornings a week and work one upper body part per Cardio workout except Body Pump day.
Cathe comes with me whenever I travel on business (which can be often) and when I go to California for the weekend. I wonder what the floor below thinks when they hear me bouncing around in the Ramada. Hee Hee.
I go through phases where all I do is Cathe if I have a work schedule that makes me miss class. It is so nice to have her to depend on, even at 1 in the morning sometimes.

KristinaRE: Max rotation next week
Yes, I plan on starting next week also. Oh, What is a mesomorph?
Great idea about keeping in touch to stay motivated.
I do not do nearly as much as you, just can't seem to fit in the yoga. I need a little motivation with the clean eatingtoo. Summer is so much easier except for the ocassional ice cream.
My email is [email protected].
Talk to you soon.

RE: Max rotation next week
Hi Lynn!! A mesomorph is someone who gains muscle (and fat!) pretty easily. Your Ectomorph is someone who has a hard time gaining muscle and keeping their weight up. An endomorph is someone who has no trouble gaining weight. They fight to keep their weight down in a normal range. Ayurveda also classifies these types but they use the terms vata(ecto), pitta(mesmo), and kapha(endo). Well, I probably gave you more info than you were looking for. Muscle and Fitness Hers this month has a big pullout section and article all about the 3 different types and sample workouts to go with them! Ok, I'll shut up now;-)! I'll email ya' here soon!

RE: Hi, everyone...

Take care.

Hey Debra!
I'd also be interested if you are going to become a TV celeb!!! Let us know! I have Becky Tirabassi's Step tape from years back. Becky also came to my daughter's college a few years ago and spoke. She had a series of Christian tapes my daughter bought that were very good. She is VERY motivational. Fill us in on the CBS morning show when you get a chance.

Hey Trevor!
No flowers, but we did get an umbrella with a big WaHoo on it! (There was also a logo for Stouffer's (which kind of ruined it!:7 I guess we should appreciate the free gift seeing as Stouffer's was sponsering it!!) How is your back? You would never have known considering your incredible workout for the week. Hope you are all better!

"If You Get The Chance To Sit It Out Or Dance...I Hope You DANCE!!"Horse Racing
Actually, I love horse racing with Arlington Race Course here. I had picked the Derby winner because i always bet on "closers". He could have a chance in the Preakness, too.
This week I am doing "wienie workouts" and probably shouldn;t be doing any at all. It hurts. And, no,; usually when a horse accident occurs it's the rider's fault or something you can't control--like twisting your ankle on a step..who knows??

We'll see
Presumably the film crew is going to focus on Becky, though I hope they give due credit to the instructor. She is fabulous! Another tiny dynamo like Cathe. I don't know Becky - she arrives late with a cell phone in her ear & leaves early. Very fit, always smiling. But she sure looks different at the gym than on her bookcovers & tv spots!
As for my role as an extra, we'll see. The class is always full & they need to remove bikes for the filming. This might be more fun to watch than to experience. Debbie, I'll let you know when CBS is going to show the segments with Becky.

Thanks Debra!
I'll keep checking in for any info on the CBS show. Just curious, does Becky still have short spiked hair? I remember years ago, it looked cute on her. How does she look different? Just being nosey! :-rollen I hope they zoom in on your instructor for all her hard work. Also, YOU need to be in the class so we can all say, "I KNOW HER!!!" Keep us in touch!

Hi Debbie
Becky now has a short geometric (angled) bob. Like most busy women, she shows up at the gym with a minimum of make-up, maybe lipstick, & flat hair. A no fuss look, not the styled hair & full make-up that she has on the book jacket covers. I believe she has school age children, so she's juggling a lot.
