\\\\\ ---- clean & tidy wednesday ---- /////

Guess who hit the snooze button 15 times AGAIN?? Oh well, I am just going to have to be late to work! I am too close to the wedding to cut workouts short! Plus, today is IMAX2 which is super fun and I wanna do it allll!

Shirl, I forgot to respond, but I will be happy to weigh in with you all. My weight right now is about 132.5. I hope it will go down some next week, and then back up after the wedding!!

IMAX2 was super fun, but now I am running extra late, oh well!!

I think snacks today will be banana and almonds and cheese and crackers. That's the best I can do....

Have a great day everyone!
 
Running late here too! bbl....

Steph, What's FUN on your schedule today?! You've got Arnold to whip your butt!!!
 
Morning humpers!!

That came out wrong :)

Katie, nothing wrong with BBQ chicken, you might be really sick of it by the end of the week, but its clean! Glad you had fun with IMAX2!

Kate, Arnold is going to kick my butt tonight, its our last session i think, i dont know financially where i stand right now, so it may be better for a bit. I cant wait to meet you!

Shirl, Your menu looks amazing, you are really doing well, you should be very proud. Enjoy L&G, i've only done it once, so i cant remember it, why have i only done it once???

Robin, You're going to attempt Tracey again. is the DVD working now?

Tonight, i've got Arnold! That will keep me entertained for a while. Christian and i have concert tickets to the Cure on Thursday night, but doubt that's going to happen for me, which sucks because they are one of my favourite bands.

my energy is lower lately, couldnt lift as heavy with PUB last night

Menu:
B: egg whites/oats
s: cc/pp/almonds
l: veg soup, carrots, hummus, apple
s: cc/pb/coconut
d: likely egg white om, spinach/tomato, berries and yogurt
Have a great day all!
Steph
 
Katie, I've been thinking about Imax2 too - 2ndfave to LIS/HIS. Have fun at dinner tonight. Any other kids for Collin to play with?

Shirl, Enjoy your WO?:) I love L&G. Great menu!

Robin, Where do you keep your vits? Mine just sit out on the counter or I forget too.

Steph, Have fun tonight. I wish I could come to the Cure concert with you!!! Props to you for doing WOs at all - no worries on not lifting as heavy. Good-lookin menu - keep eating!!

My day has been a good one. Got Gina off to school then Isabel and I ran some errands. Came home and mage some fresh bread to turn into garlic bread for tonight and french toast for tomorrow AM. Will keep portions in check!

b - smart start, 1/2 banana, grapes
s - grapes, peanuts
l - open-faced plain turkey sandwich, carrot sticks, apple slices or watermelon
s - ?? I'm struggling here. Haven't been wanting/feeling like I need this one. I don't want the extra cals and I don't want to eat if I'm not hungry. My lunch isn't terribly big so we'll see
d - clean lasagna, salad, corn, sm. piece of garlic bread

No workout - rest day! I need it bad today. My throat is still sore.

I have to meet with the accountant this afternoon but I really want to nap!

Off to read some books w/ Isabel....
 
Hi Everyone!

Didn't get a chance to post this morning because I had my last early Wednesday morning meeting. I am counting down until I can leave and go home and rest. I am really tired today.

Shirl, we can weigh again next Tuesday or would it be easier to move it to Mondays? I didn't do my bodyfat last night. I have been busy trying to get my house cleaned up. It's a mess because I have been working all the time.
Katie, glad you are going to join the weigh in. Sorry you missed out on your full workout this morning. Maybe you should do some timesaver premixes until the wedding?
Steph - so sorry you are going to miss the Cure tonight. I wished I lived closer so that I go with you - we would have a blast :)
Kate, I wanna nap too! I hope your throat gets better soon. Why not some veggies for your afternoon snack?
Robin, what kind of vitamins do you take? Hope you enjoy Tracey's leg circuit.

w/o was Imax 3 (I was way too tired to tackle this workout this morning but I made it through. I was supposed to do core too but I will do that tomorrow.)
b: shredded wheat w/ almonds
s: piece of chocolate
l: steamed tofu & veggies w/ brown sauce over rice, watermelon
s: strawberries & yogurt
d: tandoori chicken

Colleen, Quitting time is almost here! Sleeping in tomorrow?! I suppose I could munch on some fresh veggies. Good for you getting I3 in! I do just the step part when I need a good quickie!

Need. to. nap. I may cancel with the accountant. Think he'll care that I'm preg & tired? I don't really care right now! This preggo needs a nap!
 
Hey ladies

Colleen Imax3 is a killer but I love just the cardio-premix. I take Centrum Chewables.

Good idea Kate I should keep it out on the counter, but since they are chewable I will tell my kids that they are not candy.

Steph Sorry about the Cure....wow is that group still together? I remember them form the 80s.

Steph In a few week DH may see that the grass is not always greener on the other side. By that time you may find someone new...like your trainer }( ;-) (((BIG HUGS)))

My lunch was clean but I'm angry b/c my co-worker is out again. So I called my boss and told him off! I can do that b/c I work for the government.;-)

I need to stop eating so that I can workout this afternoon.
 
Afternoon ladies!

Colleen, you are so sweet, i would love to go to the Cure with you!! I usually do 1-5 Imax3 intervals on a lifting day, about 40 min of good training in there!!

Kate, cancel accountant, napmax

Robin, my thoughts exactly. I need a big strong man :) Good for you for saying something, this behaviour is unaccepable!!

One of my colleagues is taking me out for coffee this afternoon, be back
Steph
 
Robin, Sorry about co-worker-drama! I don't have that DVD but I have the whole series and I really like it.

Steph, Robin is right. I bet he comes crawling back! He'll realize what a great woman he's passing up. Not every wife would've done the counseling thing for so long. I'm proud of you for sticking thru it! I hope your coffee break is a good one - get something chocolatey with whipped cream and chocolate shavings on the top!:9

I did cancel with the accountant and had a 2-hour rest but blast it I couldn't get to sleep!
 
Toddler Drama here -- tantrums left and right!! I'm also pissy because my dinner guests want to eat at 7 pm, I HATE eating that late.

I will check back after my devil child goes to bed!
 
You can't eat at 7PM with a toddler around! What are they thinking!?:) I totally understand.

Portion-control victory for me!!! I did great at dinner.
Just got done making the batter for the french toast for the AM - it is sokaing away overnight and will be oh-so-good. And I promise to not drown it in syrup!

Have a good evening everybody. Steph, Hope you're havin' fun with Arnold! Take out some agression on a punching bag!}(
 
Funny kid story

I was just getting Isabel dressed and she was wearing nothin' but pink knee socks. So she starts dancing around like a ballerina jumping thru the air. She is so tiny and skinny - it was so cute. I would love to post a pic but I'd probably get in trouble with a government agency!!!

Now, why does it not look so cute when *I* jump thru the air naked?!?!:+
 
Hi Everyone,

Dinner plans have changed. DH and I are too exhausted to cook so we ordered from Hooters. I hope it gets here soon because I am starving. I got a grilled chicken sandwich.

Robin, I don't have that DVD so I don't know if it is any good.
Steph, glad you are getting a break from work. Good luck with Arnold tonight.
Katie, sorry about the late dinner. I always eat after 7 during the week, so it won't bother me.
Kate, Isabel must have been so cute. Sorry you couldn't sleep this afternoon. Will you bring some pictures of DD's to the RT?

Colleen
 
Funny story!!

Dinner was alright. The chicken was marinated in something that was waaaaaaayyy to salty. There was mac and cheese, I ate some. I made veggies (bell pepper, zucchini, and squash) on the grill. Everyone else ate some chocolate pie, and I skipped it!! Chris gave me some crap for not eating the dessert, and now I am mad at him. I think it is rude for him to comment on my food around company. Oh well.......

When Chris takes Collin to the shower, I am going to do some core work. I am trying to work my core every day until the beach.
