Debbie - I say it counts a workout. Glad your meatballs turned out great. Need to make some soon. Two more day's, yeah! Glad the wine testing went well, sorry about the complains. Do people have nothing better to do, except complain?

Good morning ladies! I hope everyone had a nice Easter! Our dishwasher died yesterday morning so we had some VERY classy Chinette dishes, complete with plastic forks and knives ;) Company left a little later than we'd hoped so I was up until midnight doing homework :confused: This morning I did HIIT 30/30 and the step premix from CSS this morning. Feeling good!

Belinda, I'm glad you had a nice holiday! LOL @ the RV cleaning. This Easter, we all cooked different things; I did the dessert, mom did the antipasto and the sides, and dad grilled the lamb. I'm usually not a fan of lamb but I never had it grilled until yesterday and it was DELICIOUS!!

BBL for more personals. Have a great day girls!
 
'Evening!
Amelia, so glad to hear from you! I've missed you. Very sorry to hear of your losses. I'm back to logging my food, since I've been very, very bad lately. How are you kiddos?
Belinda, lol at your confusion with tbt lb; that sounds like me. My heartrate gets up there with tbt lb even w/o cardio. How many boxes are in the rv?
Deb, I'm sure your ds are loving you for the meatballs. Cooking and cleanmax count in my book. how long will you be in Florida?
Kristen, hope you are all enjoying HP. Hope you have good weather. I agree meso 3 is slow, but love the results.
Melissa, that darn dishwasher - what a time to go. We got a Bosch last year - love how quiet it is, but seems to have longer cycles and smaller capacity than our prior one. But it sure is quiet! Wow on the workouts.
Yesterday got in a 7 mile dog walk and a lot of junk in my mouth. Today did lic and squeeze. Need to get my eating well under control (again!)

Good morning,

I did AT a little while ago! I was sweating buckets, lol.

Melissa - nice workout this morning. Sorry, about the dishwasher. Happend to me in Germany last year. Had my sisters/family we all ended up doing dishes by hand. Germans will not eat out of plastic, they rather do dishes.:p lol! By the time they all left, my kitchen was clean;). We had grilled lamb the other day, love it too.

Cookie - ok! I am still confuesed! I am doing the UB splits, right? Or one of the premixes:eek: I have a Bosch dishwaher too. Came with the house. LOL, about the junk in your mouth. Good job on that walk. I still had my suitcases (full of summer cloth) in the RV. Need to get my other suitcase out. We filled up DH car, need to go back next weekend. We still have a lot of crap in there:eek: I am suprised it all fit in there:eek:

I will be back in the morning! Good night!

Hi,

I was finishing up last minute stores today so I couldn't get a w/o in. Signed up for spin tomorrow so I get a w/o in:) Just one more store to go tomorrow & the rest of the day I will pack.

Belinda - Too funny, Belinda you have stuff stashed everywhere . . . someday you may go back to Germany & find more of your stuff LOL:) My stepdad & MIL are German so I know just how clean German's are.

Melissa - Ugh, on the dishwasher but I bet cleanup was a breeze. I haven't had lamb since I was very little . . . DH & I were just saying that lamb is an Easter tradition.

Cookie - I was just thinking today that I don't have much breathing room with my eats on vacation. We are going for 10 days that could easily add up:eek: Logging you food is the way to go. Do you use a smart phone for that?

Goodnight:)
 
Good morning,

Today is scheduled a rest day, I thinking doing tomorrow's workout which is TB:eek: Not sure, if I get it in. I have cramping in my butt from AT:eek:

Debbie - have fun with packing and your spin class today. My neighbors here haven't cleaned their windows in over 10 YEARS'S:confused: Can you believe this? They all look at me like I am nuts cleaning my windows. I do like a clean and organized house:eek: vacation time is almost here, yeah!

I will be back later. Enjoy your day, everyone!
 
Hello everyone! I hope everyone had a great Easter weekend. We had so much fun at Hershey Park. The boys had a blast and I just loved watching them with their big smiles as they went on the rides. The Easter bunny hid their baskets in our hotel room, so when they woke up, they searched for them and it was pretty funny, lol.

Anyway, the bad part was that I came down with a terrible head cold on Sunday. It got worse as the day went on. Yesterday was even more terrible. . . when we got home, I climbed into bed and just stayed there. Plus, TOTM came yesterday. My eating was not good this weekend, but I anticipated that, lol. Back at it today. I am going to attempt to workout. I was supposed to do AB yesterday, but didn't because of my cold. I don't think I can pull that one off today either. I was going to start FF's rotation though. . . I am thinking of just skipping AB and starting teh second day of the rotation, and then adding AB in later on when I am 100%.

Speaking of FF's rotation. Any suggestions for subs for the following. . .
Rhythmic Step
High Step Training
High Step Challenge
Power Hour

I don't have these and they are not in the budget. . . unless they become part of the daily deal;)

Belinda- I get major butt DOMS with AT and AB. . . my lord! I have to strategically plan what to do the day after, because my butt is always so sore, lol.

Cookie- it was 67 degrees the day we went to HP. We could not have asked for better weather. I also have to clean up my eats. . . especially with bathing suit season coming, lol.

Deb- are you leaving today? Have fun and enjoy the sun in Florida! Hope you enjoyed the spin class.

Melissa- awesome workout! How much longer do you have with this semester? I would die if my dishwasher went, lol. THe one thing I hate doing is dishes. . . especially other people's dirty dishes, including my own children's dishes, lol. It just grosses me out for some reason. I can change explosive poop diapers all day, but wash a dish that has sauce and other stuff on it, blech. :p

Okay, I will bbl. I am supposed to do LM according to this rotation. We shall see. . .

Kristin
 
Kirstin - sorry about the head cold. Happy you all had fun at HP this weekend. For RS, I would use any step DVD or go for a run. High step Training and High Step Ciruit are both circuit workouts, just do another cicuit workout;) PH is an TB endurance workout, do you have High Reps? or any TB endurance workout will work! I may take a rest day today, who knows?

BTW, wanted to give you heads up on mytrainerbob.com. His DVDs are now 75% off. Totalfitnessdvds having a huge sale right now too. You get yoga dvds for only $1.99:eek:
 
I'm back :D. Just finished LM. I have to admit, I nearly passed out at the end with all those kicks. . . completely forgot about those. I maybe should have waited at least one more day before working out, but I am glad I did it. I had to combat all the Easter candy somehow.

Hope everyone is enjoying the day.


Belinda- I do have HR and have that on tap for tomorrow. Maybe I will do that one twice. Circuits I have plenty of. I have been missing BC so I might just add that one in. I'll have to check out that website.
BBL.

'Evening!
Belinda, did AT this morning and talk about sore buts! It gets me good. How do you keep everything organized? That's something I struggle with.
Deb, did you get a bike? Ten days on vacation - lucky you. Oh yeah, I could use my phone to log my food; one of my sisters photos hers. I started writing it down this morning and gave up. Am going to do it all day tomorrow and the rest of this week, tho. There I said I - now I have to.
Kristen, Belinda had some good ideas for the subs. Hope you're feeling better soon. Glad to hear how much you all enjoyed HP.
Melissa, how was your day?
Had a dr's appt today - I'm having wicked pains in my lower back and front. Unfortunately back on meds. Of course, he told me not to exercise, silly guy. DD is having her wisdom teeth pulled tomorrow, so will spend rest of day home with her. Looking forward to it.
Cookie
 
Good morning everyone. I actually got my workout in very early today, well, early for me anyway, lol. I did High Reps. It was hard to push through so early in the morning. I definitely have more energy at the end of the day. Anyway, the reason why I got it out of the way today is because I am taking my mom to the city to see Evita today. Ricky Martin is in it, and she loves him. It is her birthday/mother's day present from me. It should be fun. She is very excited. My dad is taking care of the boys, so they are excited to spend the day with Papa. I rarely get to have time alone with my mom and I am hoping we have a great day. I plan on taking her to the Hard Rock Cafe for dinner afterwards.

Cookie- good luck to your DD today. I remember when I had my wisdom teeth pulled, when I "woke up" I thought they had not taken them out yet. I asked the dentist, "When are you going to take them out already?" Meanwhile I had tons of gores in my mouth, lol. I was so out of it.

I will bbl!

Kristin
 
Good morning ladies!! Today I felt like being abused so I did Kick Max Bootcamp premix and the cardio only premix from the original Bootcamp: Oh.My.GOSH!! That was crazy, esp the original BC where it's one cardio segment right after the other. I was welcoming that stretch at the end!

Belinda, LOL @ the butt cramp from AT. Thanks for the heads up about the videos!! You can't beat $1.99...even if I don't really need any more DVDs LOL :eek: What are you up to today?

Deb, when do you leave for vacay? Clean up def was a breeze but my parents were embarrassed about the paper plates. Oh well haha! :cool:

Kristin, glad you had fun at HP! I need a sub for High Step Training too...not even sure what that one is :confused: How are you feeling today? Have fun @ Evita; what a fun day ahead for you girls!! I have until May 11th for this semester, then I start Stonybrook on July 2 :eek: I really can't wait to go!!!! It's gonna be tough with the coursework but I finally get into the meat of PT and I'm sooooo excited!!!!!

Cookie, how are you feeling today? Good luck to DD and having her wisdom teeth yanked. That is never fun :(

Hello to anyone I missed. Have a great day girls!!
 
'Evening!
Belinda, are you off running somewhere?
Kristen, how was Evita? I read good reviews. I'm so jealous a friend of mine went to Book of Mormon! I wanted to go it first opened; now tickets are sold out months in advance. And you got your wo in! How's your mom?
Melissa, that some workout - you must be trying for but cramps also.Congrats on Stony Brook - you should be so excited. That's fabulous. DD is tired and a little sore. Alternatiing between ice cream and jello. (Yuck) They said she probbl would feel worse Friday and Saturday. Hope not since we're having a belated Easter dinner here on Saturday.
Deb, hope you had good travels.
Did HR upper body only, and boy, oh boy, were my biceps sore most of the day. Started on cleaning out closets. Such a satisfying feeling. Just wish I had more time.
Cookie
 
Good morning,

Sorry for not checking in yesterday, had a doc appoitment. I did Turbo Barre and a walk yesterday. Need to start walking them again, since we moved into the house I am lazy:eek:

Heidi - HR will get you good! I tricpes are always fried with that one. Good luck to your DD. Sounds painful! Poor thing! I start in one roon and organize it and I don't stop until I am done. It drives me nuts if my house is a mess.

Melissa - thought I let you guys know about the dvds, lol! I bought them last time Mary sold them for $1.99. Good job with KM yesterday.

Kirstin - good job with HR. How did you like to see Evita ? Hope you and your mom had fun. BC is awesome, let me know how you like it.

Debbie - enjoy your vacation, girl! Get lots of rest;)

　
Today I will do S&G cardio only + TB UB Tri Sets and a walk.

I will be back later.
 
Hey everyone. We had a fantastic time yesterday. The show was phenomenal. Ricky Martin was wonderful, our seats were fantastic, the weather was great. . . it was a perfect day. My mom had a blast and told me she will never forget it, which made it worth every penny. Thanks to going to the city regularly with Jessica and her family, my mom was impressed with how I knew to get my way around, which was pretty funny, lol.

Today I did Slide and Glide in its entirety. I haven't done this one straight through since before I started STS. I like the way the firewalker band is used for the muscle conditioning portion. It was a good workout.

This vacation is flying by :(

Belinda- I really like TB and I have only done it two or three times. It is not in this month's rotation. . . maybe I will sub it in instead of yoga one day this month. Hmmm. . . .

Cookie- the show was fantastic. I love Broadway and Evita is one of my favorite musicals. I need to do some spring cleaning myself.

Melissa- so exciting that you will be out here soon! What kind of apartment are you looking for and what's your budget? You can message me that info here or on facebook. Studios are the cheapest option obviously. . . let me know.

Deb- I bet you are enjoying your vacation!

Okay, gotta go!

Kristin
 
Hello ladies! Today I did Weights & Plates abs (I always dread that one because it is SO hard!), STS D40, and the Extended Stretch. I'm always happy after I get that stretch in there ;) This morning I came out and my front tire was almost flat so I had to bring it to Mavis; unfortunately I needed to replace BOTH front tires and I missed both of my classes because it took forever to get my car stuff done. Oh well, beats being stranded on the side of the road!

Cookie, poor DD. Wisdom teeth removal is never fun. Are you cleaning out your winter stuff to make room for summer clothes? Haha, I shouldn't have laughed at Belinda with her butt cramps because I had them today too and I had legs on tap :eek:

Belinda, how was your workout? Did you get a walk in today with the doggies?

Kristin, I'm so happy you guys had such a great time yesterday! It really was the perfect day to go!! S&G is a good one and so much fun. I love the LIS soooo much! The DPT dept has been sending me emails from current students looking for housemates. I think it would be fun to live with other students esp in the same field and probably a lot cheaper, but I also wouldn't mind living by myself. I dunno...so much to think about! I'd like to keep it no more than $1K/month including all utilities if I lived alone. I'll be paying mainly with loans so I don't want to come out in too much debt in the end :confused: I really am SO super excited!!!!

Enjoy the rest of your night girls!
 
Hey everyone,

My workouts are done. I also walked the dogs.

Cookie - how is your DD doing? I still have doms in my butt:confused:, I have a feeling they won't go away any time soon:(

Kirstin - did you take pictures? Where does your mon live? I thought you are from NY? Glad you both had a last at the show and city. I also really like TB. It's different and works my muscle in different way. Love it! When I go to NY I need to go to Broadway and see Evita, ha? I always wanted to go. Once DH gets his new hip, watch out. lol!

Melissa - nice job, on W&P abs, that one is tough! LIke you, I always dread it). Sorry about the tire,! If it pours, it rains, right? I am excited for you too! How did your leg workout go?

Good night, girls! BB in the morning.


　
　
　
　
　
　
　
 
Good morning. Guess what is the daily deal today. . . HSC! So, I ordered it. Now I don't have to think about what to substitute next week, lol. On tap for today is Step Blast. I will be back later with personals.

Kristin
 
Came back to say I did SB. I think this is my new favorite step workout. I seriously smile as I huff and puff through it. The music is great, the pace is fast. I am sweating buckets at the end, but I am having so much fun I do not even realize it. I wish there were more like this one.

I had to have TErminix come today (we have a contract). I have little black ants coming in through the bathroom. The company is great. They always come right away. The lady told me though that because we had such a warm winter there is going to be a bug problem this summer. Ewww! :confused::(

Belinda- we live on Long Island and we took the train in. Took a few pictures. I am going to frame a picture of my mom and me in front of the theater and the playbill for my mom for mother's day. She'll like that.

Melissa- I'll keep a lookout for you, but it is quite expensive out here. Roommates might be the way to go. Although, I have to admit I do not know much about renting by the school. I remember a couple I met that rented a small cottage for very little money. I'm still friends with her on FB. I'll ask her.

Okay, I will bbl.
