Oh my goodness, I can't believe I made it! It's the weekend, yay!

What workouts do you have planned? Will you be cheating or keeping it clean? Any fun plans with your family and friends?
 
I am gearing up for a THREE day weekend! Gosh, I love November! Monday is Veteran's Day, so again I am off work!:p

Today will be a rough and busy work day. BUT, as soon as I get off and go get my monkey from school, my mommy will be arriving from out of town to spend the weekend! I am making a pot roast in the crock pot for dinner, and my mom is bringing me my FAVORITE cheat of all time -- Black and White cake! It is layers of yellow and chocolate cake, with chocolate fudge and buttercream icing. Oh my goodness soooooo good!

Workout will be slightly different than planned, since yesterday didn't go as planned. I will do Drill Max warm up and cardio drills 1-4, then 4DS bis and tris.

Menu~

B strawberry protein shake
S half sandwich
L leftover pasta w/chicken and veggies
S apple slices
D pot roast with potatoes, carrots, and onions; black and white cake for dessert
 
HAPPY FRIDAY

Wow soon I will have to put up my Christmas decoration, yes I start early and end Christmas in Jan. I was thinking of white and gold decorations this year.

I see you are loving your protein shakes Katie and I hope you have a nice day at work. :9 black and white cake....I'll be there.;-)

I think that we should all have a cheat meal once a week and not feel guilty about it. This way we do not feel like we are missing something.

w/o Amy SloMo Abs two times. I was surprise there weren't any crunches, instead very challenging ab w/o.

b-oatmeal
s-peanuts and yogurt
l-chicken and stringbeans
d-?

This weekend I'm going to take the kids to see the Bee movie.
 
Good morning Katie & Robin; Steph, Shirl, & Colleen!

Katie - Can you FedEx us all a piece of that cake?:9 :9

Robin - I think I'll go preview SloMo Abs at Collage. Do you do a different theme every year for C'mas? I just bought a really pretty red poinsetta wreath for our front door. I want to put it up NOW, but I'll wait til December.

so far:
b - 3/4 c. kashi, 1/2% milk, banana

the plan:
s - 1/2 luna bar (had the other 1/2 after weights last night)
l - tortilla soup, apple
s - ??
d - need to check my recipes/pantry

w/o - cardio, not sure which

DDs have no school today! Hurray! Need to do payrollx( this morning for our guys and this afternoon I'm interviewing a cleaning lady for our house. I almost NEVER clean the house. I'm great at picking up and our house *looks* clean but it really needs some extra attention that I'm not giving it. I have so little free time. The time I do get I'd rather spend with DDs, not scrubbing toilets.

Tomorrow I'm making a Thanksgiving feast! Brining the bird, stuffing, potatoes, pumpkin pie, the whole *enchilada*. I've never brined my turkey - let you know how it goes.

Steph - Thinking of you & your DH - Keep your chin up!
 
Happy Thanksgiving :9 :9 :9 Kate
Brined my turkey???

Amy core slomo is on her new DVD SloMo, it just one of the chapters.

I usually change my Christmas themes every 2-3 years. One year I was patriotic with only red, white and blue.
 
Brining your turney is soaking it in salt water for a certain length of time - Supposed to make it very juicy.

C'mas sounds fun at your house! Can I come? I'll bring you my frosted sugar cookies!

I would like to check out Amy, but I really really don't want another thing to spend $$$ on!!
 
Hello cleanand tidy Friends!!

Happy Friday, looks like everyone has a busy weekend.

Katie, enjoy your visit with mom! My mother always brings food to my house, i dont think she trusts my cooking. Good workout planned, and yeah, fed ex us some of that cake for sure.

Robin, I agree with Kate, Christmas sounds great at your house, can we all come :) I bought my decorations for this year, red, gold and silver. Big cone trees, and stars, and little shiny trees to sit on my window ledges, i think i went a little nuts.

Kate, I hear ya about cleaning, i clean for hours every week, its crazy. Are cleaning ladies expensive? And thank you for your DH thoughts, i appreciate it. We had a long talk last night, and are going to see a counsellor tomorrow.

Today, workout, i think new bootcamp and Abs, i have chiro today, so i like to push it. I need some steady state during the week i think though.
I'll post more later,
Steph
 
Hi Everyone!

How is everyone doing today? I am so happy it's Friday. :) I did Slo-Mo shoulders, bis and tris early this morning. I just finished the kb/bc premix from 4DS. I feel pretty good. I need to fuel my body with a clean lunch and get busy! I'll be back shortly.


A friend in fitness,
Shirl
 
Everyone sounds like they are having a great so far.

Thanksgiving dinner and Christmas decorations already?

Stephanie, I must have missed whatever you said about DH troubles, but my thoughts are certainly with you!

I will certainly send you all a piece of cake -- if I don't eat it all myself! I asked her to buy only a half a cake, if it was available, and it was thankfully! I will have a piece tonight and maybe another tomorrow for breakfast (hahahaha) and then that is all.

DF and I are going out to dinner tomorrow night, so I will probably be cheating again. Need to keep the cake to a minimum for that reason!
 
Hi Everyone!

I am so glad it's Friday. I am really exhausted.

Robin - I barely get my tree up every year. I am so jealous that you go all out.
Steph - hope you and your DH work things out
Katie - I am so jealous that you get cake this weekend. Enjoy your visit with your Mom and your day off Monday.
Shirl - I haven't tried Slo-Mo chest and back premix. I will try it next week and let you know if I have any problems.

w/o was 4DS All Step premix
b: oatmeal w/ almonds
l: arroz con pollo
s: butternut squash soup
d: tbd

I am visiting my mom this weekend for her birthday so I don't think I will be online very much.
