Actually, Wendy, colonoscopies are only disruptive for someone like ME!! I tend to have always had a hard time keeping my weight up because of my IBS symptoms...so whenever I go through a stressful time, I lose weight (in this case, both through nerves AND the actual procedure itself!).

For me, if I start weighing in anything under 103 lbs, I start really feeling a lack of energy and feeling drained all the time. I was down to barely 100 lbs after this colonoscopy so I had to "beef" up a bit before I could go back to tackling my Cathe workouts!!!

Now I'm at a happy 105 and still pushing for that 110 mark!

Erica:
That is sooo funny about your chanting the moves along with Debbie in TKO...because that's EXACTLY what I was doing trying to keep up with it!

Great minds think alike, right???

RE: Hello

Hey everybody. I'm a little late this week. We got back from the beach yesterday afternoon and I'm just going to have limited time for the forum in the next couple of days while I catch up on a week's worth of dictation. My doctor's saved it all for me...wasn't that nice? :) I work at home so I'm really not complaining.

My week was less than great as far as workouts but we sure had fun. It was great watching my 2-year-old playing in the sand.

I basically walked on the beach (serious walk) only a couple of days. One day I did pushups and crunches. The rest of the days was spent swimming and laying out. Oh, and of course working on my scrapbook for my son. I did 11 pages while we were gone. I had fun looking through old pictures of my little baby. Where did that baby go? They grow up way too fast.

Anyway, everybody's week looks great. I am glad to be back home even though we come home and found my fridge had died. Oh well! Such is life!!

Have a great week everyone!!!

Hi Andrea,
I know what you mean about fights that are started over something dumb. My biggest fights with my hubby has always started over something really dumb!!

Hope you guys "made up". There's the fun part!

Have a happy birthday!

RE: Hi Debbie!

The Cleveland Zoo is definitely a workout! Everything there is spread so far apart and there is so much walking just to get from one place to another. And the uphill area is brutal!! Glad you had a good time!!

Hey Trevor!

We had a beautiful weekend weatherwise, but I think we are now getting your RAIN! :-( Oh well, I don't have to water my flowers today! :) Sorry to hear your back is still giving you problems. Take it easy. You look good and can afford some time off! Did you get new pix downloaded? I'll check & see if I can get back into your photo album. It's fun to see Brandon getting bigger. Take care of yourself.

Hey Kelly!

Glad you took time to enjoy your time away from home. I am just getting started into the Scrapbooking. My daughter got me lots of "stuff" to get started as my gift for Mother's Day. I can't wait. It looks like so much fun. My daughter has made several beautiful books. Good Luck this week catching up on all your dictation. That was soooo nice of your boss not to give it to anyone else ;-)!!!

Hey Murph!

Bummer~Sorry to hear you are still having problems. You stay in "Weinie-Town" til you are all better. (Although, it doesn't sound that "weinie" to me!!:7) Hmmm, my hubby is out of town tonight~maybe I need to pull out my Ali McGraw tape. I wanted it sooo bad for sooo long and I finally got it off E-bay. Do you think I have ever done it? NOPE!!! It's called tooo many tapes and not enuf time!! GET WELL SOON!!!

Yeeeeah Ruth!

It has really helped me making the commitment with you & Cinza to do our push-ups & step-ups. I have stayed consistent. Those step-ups & downs get me every time though. Wonder if they will EVER get easier?? Thanks for the MargaretR. website address. I am going to check it out.

RE:Hey Debbie

I love to do the scrapbooks too. They are a lot of fun and there is so much stuff out there. My consultant here gave me a new syst em called a "power lay-out" and it makes it so easy to get an album done quickly.

Thanks for all your encouragement too.

Hey Debbie

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON May-21-01 AT 11:32PM (Est)[/font][p]You can really go crazy getting all that scrapbooking "stuff". I love it. I did a smaller album for my mother and one for my mother-in-law of my son's first year. They really treasure it. I am currently trying to do me an album of the numerous pictures of my son. I only took about 150 pictures while we were on vacation. I am only up to Easter of 1999 with my scrapbook. Needless to say that I have a lot of work to do. But of couse it is fun work!

Deb, Deb,Debbie...

You better belive I have a DVD player, and I don't know how I lived without it! I always liked combining, and I can't wait for the "new" 12 pack (which I just ordered last night!!! :-jumpy) because then my days of combo heaven will really begin. Unfortunately, I have discovered that my DVD player will not program across discs, just within each disc. Bummer, but the way they are set up (MIS and BodyMax on one disc, for example) will help alot. I never thought I would use Cardio Hits as much as I do, but it is so great to mix warm-ups and different step segments from those 3 workouts! I guess my PS DVD's are on their way, but I'll be waiting on doing those for awhile, since I'm trying a lighter/faster approach this rotation...Still, I can't wait for them to arrive. Maybe I can modify them somehow to fit them in...
Anyway, blab, blab, blab, and I saw that you found out who Margaret Richards is, so I won't bore you with more details! :)
Talk to you soon!
Wendy
