+..+..+..+..clean/tidy EASTER weekend..+..+..+..+

katie, you said you have the red tubing.....do you like it? do you ues it?

Yes, I have it.... And I use it... But I really don't feel like I work very hard when I use it:eek: Lat pull downs with the band are way way harder. It's just very very easy...
 
Anne, glad the dog is doing well, but sorry to hear about the foster mom:( I would be beside myself too I am sure. I will be interested to hear how the night goes.
 
Thanks, Katie - You just saved Mike some money!:p

Anne, What Katie said.... That is so heart-breaking abt her foster mom! How sad!!!

Ok, so I ate some jelly beans while I was packing eggs! Theya re so addicting, the little stinkers!
 
I tried to post some pictures here but they wouldn't upload.....? So anyway, there are some new pictures on my FB page for anyone interested. Several pictures from today, and also my picture after I finished my race last week.
 
Thanks for the warm welcome everyone!! Looking forward to checking in and getting to know all of you!! I am just dropping in real quick while I nurse my 5mo dd. I have three children, ds 9, dd 7, and dd 5mos. I have been doing Cathe workouts for quite a few years now. I discovered her on Fit TV then soon enough found her website and that was the beg. of it all. I actually started off as a gym person and loved going to group classes, but now with three kids, working out at home is so much more convenient. I used to run a lot, but had to slow it down after experiencing some knee problems. Like I mentioned earlier, I have 7 more lbs to lose to get back to prepg weight. I am at least fitting my clothes, but on the tighter side. Anyway, enough about me. I am looking forward to getting to know everyone!

Hi Kate! And yes, I am a sucker for sweets. I ate clean for all my meals today, but I couldn't resist sneaking some jelly bellies, ack!

Oh and apologies in advanced while I get to know everyone's names!!

Wow, Lisa, it sounds like you really have your hands full! Do you stay home with your kids? What time of day do usually workout? Doing any kind of particular rotation right now?
 
Katie - I work part-time, both from home and the office. Life has become CRAZY after having our third. I workout in the afternoons or evenings. I am trying to transition to become a morning workout person, but hasn't been happening. I am not on any rotation, but planning on starting a GS series rotation. Actually, the April 09 Cathe one looks good, but I'll probably change it a little. I don't care for PLB so I'd probably sub that with B&G. I am by nature a cardio junkie, but I do love strength training also. I just pick cardio over weights when given a choice. How many kids do you have? Are you a STSer?

Goodness gracious, Kate is up early!! Glad you got to step for a few minutes this morning. Same thing happened to me yesterday -- I got 30 mins into my workout when Collin woke up so I stopped so he could open his basket. ^5 on keeping the eats clean!

Lisa, yes I am doing STS right now, about to begin week 4 of meso 2. I have one son, Collin, age 4. I love cardio as well and got hooked on Cathe when I found her step tapes, but right now I am addicted to running and I am doing that 3 days a week and STS 3 days.

Happy Easter to everyone! Hopefully the Easter bunny brought you more carrots than chocolate!

Today is my normal rest day but I am behind this week so I am going to do a run on the TM (5-6 miles?) and then finish biceps from my STS disk that I missed yesterday!

hi sneaky katie, our kids are ruining our wo plans!!! lol!
and lol about the carrots! will have some w/ lunch!

Happy Easter, everyone!

The puppy is doing well. She's playing with a toy right now and has just trotted into the office to see what's making noise. She cried quite a bit last night, but we knew she would. I got up and took her out this morning and it turns out she's a morning dog! She was all set to play and chase and go all out. We played for a little while, then I brought her back in and gave her breakfast. She did eat all of her food this morning, which is good. She didn't eat all of it last night, but we didn't think she would. She's very busy smelling everything! I'm reading a book about dog behavior and it's already helped, so that's good.

My, I'm self absorbed, aren't I? I'll be back later for personals!
