Hi Ladies.

Well, I survived! I even considered doing more of IMAX2 then just the first 5 intervals but time was running short and I want to shower before I get Joey up from his nap. It wasn't that bad...ofcourse, ask me how high my step was!:p I think I will do this combo again next week and up the step height!}(

Sunny: Wow! First a TB Kick cert, then a PT cert and now you are going for a GF cert too!? You are all over it girl! Good for you!:) :) :) Please don't forget about your cheetah friends after you become a famous instructor okay? ;) And don't give up running! I want to hear that you enter another race come the spring!:+

Okay, time's up for me!

I hope to be back later though!:*
 
Good evening everyone :)

I just finished 62 minutes and 5 seconds on the elliptical :+ Then some plank and ab work. Whew....I'm a tired girl, now. :) But, smilin'!!!

We went to 'Night of the Museum', good show - DS loved it. DH has to work again tonight, so it's just me and DS, again. :-( I struggle sometimes owning our own business, I never see my DH, but I guess we don't fight much then either :p ;-)

I will be finishing up some last minute shopping for DH tomorrow and bartend tomorrow night. Not many Christmas parties or happy hours to go to this year, but that's OK because I usually indulge too much at those kinds of things anyway. Saves me a bloated stomach and headache in the morning. ;-)

I think I will go make some pretzels dipped in almond bark with Christmas music in the background, might just cheer this lonely girl up. :)

Laura: Your bootcamp sounds like a killer, 8 1/2 minutes on the stairs!!! I bet they were sweatin'! Good job!!! That's what we are there for, to make them sweat.

Oh, I just got the new Collage Catalog, anyone have or tried Amy Bento workouts? I know I've heard some people on the forums talk about them, but can't remember if they liked them or not.

Take care, Marcia.
 
Hello ladies,
Gasping for air, trying to catch my breath. What a crazy week for me. I have been so busy with the kids and all of their activities and parties and trying to pack for our trip. It looks like you have all been busy doing great workouts. I have gotten a few good ones in this week. I did the elliptical today and abs and stretch and yesterday I did lying leg work from butts and gutts and lying leg work from legs and glutes and then muscle max upper body. It was a great workout!

We are having Rons mom over tonight to spend the night and open presents with her and then we are packing and we leave really early on xmas eve to chicago.

I only have one more workout to get in before I leave and that is strenght training tomorrow. I am actually really hoping that this break will give my back what it needs, rest. I am still going to do lots of stretching and I will take my beloved butts and gutts dvd . But, no cardio.

Okay, I had a tiny little eat fest today. I had a quarter pounder with cheese and fries and some of those pink cookies with frosting in the middle that kind of taste like styrofone(SP?) You know the ones that come in pink, chocolate or vanilla. They are horrible, but I still ate them. But, my eat fest is over and I am on track again.

No time for in depth personals, but just wanted to check-in and tell ya that I have been reading all the posts.

Jess, I will call you after xmas and hopefully we can meet for lunch or coffee or something. I need a cheetah fix:)

Happy Holidays to all and hopefully I will have time to check in tomorrow.

Cheers!

Susan
 
Susan: Good luck on your travels to Chicago. I live in Minnesota and we are just getting past a nasty ice/snow/slush mix and I think it's headed for Chicago. Travel safe! Everyone else, too. ;-)

I just ate a bowl of low fat Ben and Jerry's frozen yogurt in one of thier yummy chocolate conconction flavors!:9 }( :9 It was much needed to help ward off the DOMS from today's work out!;)

Now I'm off to peel 5 pounds of potatoes to make potatoe salad for tomorrow!:eek: I'll be back!:*
 
Quick check in just to say that I am here. Unfortunately I don't have time for personals right now....hopefully tomorrow.

I was finally able to get in a long run today....9.37 miles. So happy about that.

Have a wonderful night and I will talk to you tomorrow!:) :)
 
Hey Ladies, another quick check in. Nice run Elaine!!! :) My workout feels like ages ago, hmmmm.......Right! It was PowerMax, haven't done that one in a while, good choreo, good cardio!:) Had a full day at work today and am in at 10:00 tomorrow, apologies for no personals but I've just made a big mess in the kitchen cooking meatballs and if I don't clean it up tonight I won't workout tomorrow and that is just NOT an option!!!:7 I'm loving the Christmas cards!! Carole's came yesterday, today was Barb, Wendy, Elaine (yeah, the Rugrats are our first cousins;-)). Thanks for the cards everyone, they're a big part of why I'm feeling so Christmasey this year, your cards are hung on a shelf in my kitchen and I was thinking about you when I was cooking tonight!! :) Nighty night Cheetah friends!!:)

Take Care

I'm sneakin' in from the sleepover!! :p They're having a blast! It's been so fun, it's a good group of girls. 6 girls total, Hannah & her 5 bestest friends. :p We've had pizza (which I indulged in- Pizza hut- yum!), opened gifts, made bead necklaces/ bracelets, watched Beethoven's 5th, and then had cookies & hot cocoa. (which I resisted!) Now they're watching another movie & are snuggled in their sleeping bags. 2 of her friends told me that I was the coolest Mom ever. ;-) I love them! LOL

It's been a super busy day. I'm glad that I got up to do DM, I definitely wouldn't have had a chance to fit in a workout otherwise!! Kiersten's appt at the ENT went well. Her tube fell out of her ear as I was cleaning it in the tub this morning!! (that she had put in as a baby) I couldn't believe it! The ENT Dr. said that her ears were just terrible, still very infected & inflamed. Poor baby. She was still looking just miserable, she has no color to her & still very lethargic. No wonder she's still been so sick! She prescribed a very strong antibiotic/ anti-inflammatory ear drop for her to use that will help. And we go back in 4 weeks to get her ears checked again & possibly get the tubes put in again. I felt bad sending her on to my Mom's, but she wanted to have her sleepover at Grandma's. I had to send my Mom all of the directions for all of the meds that she's on! I'm sure they had fun & went to bed early. ;-) The girls will stay til 10AM tomorrow & then we'll pack up & head out. I'm going to take my rest day tomorrow since I won't have a place to work out. The girls are all over the floor in the family room (my usual workout area!! :p).

Happy 6th bday to Sunny's ds!! Lots of near Christmas babies!

Ok, just wanted to check in since I won't probably get a chance before we leave. Have a wonderful Christmas, I'll try to check in from my Mom's. We won't be home til Mon night sometime.

Susan ~ Please call while you're in IL!!! Even if we just meet for coffee, that would be so fun!!! I'll have to bring the girls, but they'd love meeting your girls!! We'll take some pics to share w/ our Cheetah pals!

Merry Christmas to all & to all a good night! ;-)
