@@@------Cleaning It Up Thursday-----@@@

Becky - Yesterday was not good for me either. I caved and ate a kiddie size ice cream while we were out because the heat was getting to me.

Kate - P's party is on Halloween day. How fun and cute about the cake! Can you believe our babies are turning one already?? Another one in the works for you guys?

Nina - I also workout on carpet/rug. I would use a yoga mat like Angie suggested. How do you like Insanity so far?

Robin - Wow, Xmas stuff already? So much to do so little time, ack!

Angie - I'm excited to see what your results will be in a week. Interesting about the cardio abs. I wondered about that.

Katie - Hope your work day is going well.

So I did my Insanity workout this am before it got way too hot. I didn't do my Cardio Recovery that I skipped, but just went on to the next one, Cardio Power Resistance. I think I like that one the best so far, but they all kind of seem similar to me. Pure Cardio goes by really fast for me so I like that one also even though it's a killer workout. Need to do some ub weights later. Eats are clean so far. Oatmeal and banana for bfast. WW pasta with lean ground beef spaghetti sauce for lunch. I got fruit for snacks in between. Dinner is a whole chicken in the crock pot with veggies. Working from home, but might go out later when it gets hot to find some free a/c, lol.

Kate - That is one adorable pic of the girls! They all look so happy. One to frame definitely!

Lisa

Thanks, Lisa! It was so pretty out yeterday and Julia was LOVING the tramploine!
It's so nice that Hween is on a Sat this year! You guys doign the party then head out for TorT?
Kiddie ice cream counts as a victory for me! When we go out for IC I HAVE TO get the worst things on the menu.:eek::eek::p
Good job getting your WO early! Is DH doignthem too?
YUMMY MENU!!!
 
kate, great pic! i love ic too, unfortunately. that white chick chili you mentioned, ive been eyeing that on cooks country for a while, have you made it?

lisa, glad youre liking insanity. we still have finish work on the bathroom, dh wants finish this weekend. i do have a few progress pics if i get a chance i will upload today. lol @ looking for free ac =)

becky, eats look fab!

nina, i dont make my own jajek or grp leaves (just hummus and fattoosh). they are too much of a PITA but so delish and healthy, i thought... am i missing something in grp leaves that is not clean besides the white rice? limit myself to 2 for that reason. the shops here have the little old turkish lebanese or armenian grandma in back cooking everything from scratch so i feel superconfident im getting wholesome stuff...tell me if i am missing something, you have me worried!

angie, id be worried about the bare floor too! but nothings perfect. my last place i wo on thick carpet and couldnt do any pivot moves or triples around or anything like that. using yoga mat, good move!
 
hope i didnt miss anyone?

hit the gym after am nap and did 25 mins on the random hill setting. how can i tell for sure if my intervals are considered hiit? i need tofind some guideline somewhere. feel sooooo pooped afterwards, in a good way and when i know i only have 20-30 mins i find i push it that much harder.

b - egg, ham on a bagel -- boo, NOT clean. my mom brought really good bagels over last night from brookline, darnit! i need to avoid them. and coffee
l - applesauce, roast beef

made apple cake and apple sauce last night and i still have about 4 lbs of apples. other ideas? also, ive been thinking of making my own bbq sauce and ketchup so i will be less likely to use these pre-made from supermarket... they all have HFCS and other nastiness. any of you make these?
 
*&&^%*&*^%*&%(&^ !!!!!!!!!!!!!! That was a freaking. awesome. workout. BABY!!!! Cardio Power Resistance or something liek that. DANG!!!!

Clean eat ALL DAY and Julia's pictures were magnifique! Can't wait to see them! She TORE into that cake - we were rolling laughing at her. Well, with her - she was cracking up too!

Wendy, I haven'y made that chili recipe. Do you subscribe to them? They have a BBQ recipe on there. If you don't I can post it for you.
Great job @ the gym!
 
Kate - We did the same wo today! DH is on a different day because he's doing weights and goes to jiu jitsu class as well. He's not following the calendar like I am. Yes, party in the day then Tot at night in our neighborhood. What are the girls for Halloween? DS is Jason from Friday the 13th, dd is Hannah Montana, and P is Little Red Riding Hood.

Wendy - Hope the bathroom is done soon! How exciting!

Eats are clean except I did have some B&J frozen yogurt and a small spoonful of butter pecan. What can I say? That darn heat! Okay, bad excuse. But other than that eats are on track.

Lisa
 
lisa, i could eat ic all day - good job with the pc.

wendy, my grandmother drowns things in oil and fries beef to stuff the leaves with - totally unclean. yours sound good, though.

kate, i cannot wait to see pics of julia and the cake. love that other pic of the girls on the trampoline.

well, my day was a total sucess with food, and also a sucess with wo. i did max cardio conditioning. it was great except the diamond jumps. i just do not like them a t all. did me ub too. dh and i went to dinner and it was good to talk. he will have some time away. hope things continue to get better. my boys were angels today:) off to bed for me. see you all in the am
 
Lisa, Julia is a purple fairy, Isabel wants to be a witch and Gina wants to be Dracula.....not sure where their doom and gloom costume ideas came from!:confused:
butter pecan,,....mmmmm....haven't had that in YEARS! Mike won't eat nuts and I refuse to buy a container of IC that only I will eat. Because then I'll eat it!:p

Nina, Glad you had a good day. I haven't done diamond jumps yet - sounds scary! Esp if YOU don't like them!:p:eek::eek:
 
kate, cant believe i forgot to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY JULIA!!!!!!!!!!!! def post the cake pics. i have been so lazy about putting pics up here and on FB, i have some cute cake ones from th ebday party last month. i dont subscribe to cks cntry mag, just online. have you tried the BBQ sauce recipe? im always hesitant to make a lg batch of something when it doesnt come recommended...

nina, i always get the vegetarian ones so that probably makes a difference. where is your grandmother from? sounds like you had a great day for wo and eats.

lisa, b & J is sounding good to me right about now... i should probably go to bed =)
