Good morning cheetahs!
My kids are all off from school today because of Lincoln's b-day. It is kind of nice to not have to be anywhere this morning or to get anybody ready.
I had a great workout yesterday. I burned about 600 calories doing the elliptical for 55 minutes and then ME upper body. Today is a rest day. I am ready for it too. I always eat perfectly or my rest days. I think I probably gained a few lbs over the weekend. So, I will try to get those off this week. A never ending ridiculous battle
I would prefer to have the GTG in the summer when the kids are out of school. I think they get out around the 19th of June. I say we go to San Diego or somewhere beachy. I will go anywhere you guys go though
Cathy, thank you again for being the organized cheetah. I say we elect you president of the cheetah check-in. I love the b-day thing you set up. I hope you get your run in today.
Sunnydelite, I agree with you on the food thing. I could never even go through a week without having a treat day.
Marcia, enjoy your rest day and hopefully your meeting won't be too dreadful.
Judy, I hope your hip starts to feel better soon.
Gayle, great job on the treadmill. I cannot believe you ran 18 miles on that before. That is great you lost all of that weight.
Laurie, I am sorry about the items that were broken. You have a great attitude about it. I struggle with that around here too. Sometimes my kids run around here like it is a park, but I have to remember they are just kids and I have to realize that things are things, but my girls are just a bundle of endless beautiful energy. I have been lucky though as far as them breaking things.
Laura, Yes, I have always been pretty slim, BUT, I work my butt off to stay that way. If I did not workout, I would defintiley be about 10lbs or so heavier. I have always struggled with food, to the point sometimes I think I need therapy for it. I started out as a gymnast at the age of 10 and did that for 8 years and that kept me pretty fit. Sometimes, I get disgusted with myself for focusing on the weight and workouts SO much. But, I don't think that will change anytime soon. How are you doing with your new rotation? Are you enjoying your full body workouts?
Carole, I hope your glute and hamstring feel better. I just hate this whole injury thing. I never had and injury ever until this past year and it totally sucks!! Sorry, I just had to get that off my chest
Thank goodness we have the good ole elliptical to still get a good workout. Sorry about all the trouble with your moms pc. I have when computer stuff goes bad. Enjoy your masssage and hopefully that will fix that hamstring.
Barb, great workout for you today. I really like LIC. It is kind to my back. You mentioned stiffening up. I find also that if I do a little walk or even 20 minutes on the elliptical in the afternoon or evening it really keeps my back loose. I have found that I cannot do as much sitting in the evening watching tv. I guess this is all part of getting older, UGH!
Jess, don't cha just love the way the jeans fit after tummy problems}(
What workout are you going to do today? So, your girls had school today? Mine are all home with me for Lincolns b-day. BTW, you bathroom looks awesome. I just love home improvement projects.
Linda, that was one awesome workout you did this morning. No wonder you are so lean. I will have to check out Barry's BC.
Christine, sounds like you had a great time at Camelot. I so miss doing theater stuff. The last show we saw was Barney at the Oakland coliseum(LOL)! We did Aida in San Francisco a couple of years ago though. They have some good shows at Villa Montavlo too. Sorry about the nasty headache you have. Work that upper body good today}(
Laurie, great job on your workout. You are a star for doing yoga too.
WOW! it seems like this just took forever. Doing the personals definitley clears my head though. Have a great day fit ladies.
No bad eating today, okay?
Susan
