Hi and good morning,

Today I have cardio on tap, not sure what yet? My entire body is sore:(

Somehow I need to get a ab wokout in today, haven't done one this week:rolleyes:

Have a great workout and day everyone!
 
Morning

Today were taking Cassie girl (our lab mix) to a local park that has nature trails then when we get back im doing yoga X. Its an hour and thirty minutes long...not sure if i will last that long. Will probably do an hour of it;)

Belinda-LOL, maybe a nice powerwalk or run will help your sore muscles. You guys are making me jealous with all these doms:p

Helened-Aweseome job getting in your workout yesterday...

Lori-I think what happened to my tummy was on monday morning...i had about 70grams of protein in a very short period of time. I didn't even think about the results that what would have on my tummy:confused: it still isn't 100% yet.:rolleyes:

Debbie-I hope your damage isn't much with your car...

Hey to everyone, bbl
 
Good morning Amelia,

I agree, 1 1/2 hour yoga is to long;) Enjoy your walk today. Do you want some of my DOMS, I am in pain:p

Not sure if I will work out today? I will do abs, that's for sure! What happend to your Cathe' ticker, lol?
 
Good Morning Ladies....

Today I planned on a run with some abs/yoga, but my wack job of a neighbor (that's an awful thing to say, but it's true) sits outside early in the morning and I have to walk by him to go to the treadmill. :mad: (More about him another time) So I haven't the faintest idea what shorter cardio I will do today. Yesterday I changed my mind AGAIN and did BM2 instead of BM...lol Had a great workout and burned almost 600 cals..woohoo.

Belinda- wow you win the DOMS award this week.....lol

Amelia- Have fun with yoga!!

Helene- yesterday I was still running the ac....today I need a jacket...lol You know, I never thought about the warranty on the laptop, I can't remember how long it lasts...I got it just over a year ago. That's awesome about Florida...it's wonderful having something to look forward to!

Coookie- Wow you have a lot going on!! How many kids do you have? Seems like you have a big family. By the end of Saratoga I will decide if I'm going to give it a shot for Daytona....hopefully it won't be sold out by then.....

Trish- LOL about your DH asking if you were hot in the middle of the night..that cracked me up!

Hello to everyone that follows! Kinda running out of time here....Have a great day!


 
Good Morning!

I woke up alot earlier then I should have. DS was the same way again as he was last night so when he woke up, he cried for me to get up to. I went and lay in his bed but didn't get back to sleep. So I had about 4+ hours of sleep (the + being the little bit I had at work). The weird thing is...I feel o.k!:confused: Im sure it will catch up with me later today, plus I have to work again tonight. Maybe DD will watch him for 30 mins or so this afternoon and I can get a little nap.

Im wondering if I will have more parcels today:p The next 2 are coming from the US though so they need to clear customs and all that jazz. I have a feeling that I am going to be paying duty at the door as well...and I have no money here! The other thing is, the people who deliver parcels like that, go to DH's store ALL the time with deliveries. Yesterday DH came home with my clothes that I ordered:confused: Its a good thing I told him or I would have gotten busted! hehe! But like getting mail at the door...so it kinda sucks when they are to lazy to bring it to my house!

I am going to do disc 29 or 30 today. I may leave legs for later this week b/c I don't want them to be sore yet. I have some nice DOMS going on from yesterdays workout.

Belinda** Did you decide your cardio yet??? I don't know if I will get out for a run or not. It looks like its going to rain plus, Im not really overflowing with energy here.

Ameila** Have fun with with your day long yoga class!:p

Iris** Creepy neighbours are the worst. I use to have a weird guy living next to us but then we moved!!!

Cookie** How was your first nights sleep in your new bed? Our bed is pretty high as well....DS fell off of it when he was a baby! wasn't a pretty sight!!!

BBL!

Good morning Amelia,

Not sure if I will work out today? I will do abs, that's for sure! What happend to your Cathe' ticker, lol?

Belinda...on second thought, think i will pass on the doms for now:p What happened to my ticker? Well,lol, i can't make up my mind:rolleyes: and on the MFP ticker i can put my little girls flower picture she made me inside of it!!

Iris-You have a wack job as a neighbor too? We got new ones about a month ago and although there pretty quiet during the week, the weekend is crazy. Good job on your workout girl!!!!

I need advice! In the past i have always allowed myself an indulgence meal once a week...well, i was suppose to have one yesterday but i didn't. I really want one today,just not sure if i should. Ive been doing so good with my eating lately and i don't want the meal 'push me off the wagon'. Any advice? I also don't want to deal with the guilt that comes along with one. sigh,decisions...decisions:rolleyes:

workout done. I did about 4omins of yoga and then jumped on the treadmill for a 30min run interval. Now its time for a shower...have a good day! BBL
 
Hi Girls!

No workout to report yet...still playing with DS. I probably would have ran outside but its to windy!

I went ahead and ordered the insanity workouts! I did the 3 payment plan but now Im not so sure I did the right thing. With the canadian dollar being almost on par with the US, perhaps I should have just paid for the whole thing now? In a monthes time when the next payment is due the canadian dollar might not may not be that good and I could end up paying double or something crazy like that.

Ameila** Unless you are craving something, I wouldn't bother. Have whatever it is that you are craving and move on. If its a burger, then have the burger with no fries or dessert. If its desser you want, then have it after a healthy meal, thats what I would do. That way you wouldn't be going waaaay over board with your treat. It would only be 3-400 cals added to your day instead of 1000 or so.

BBL!

Oh and while I was placing my Insanity order I heard a thump on the window. When I looked up, I could see feathers.:( Went out and there is was...a little birdy lifeless. I was hoping he was going to come around but I think he died right away...poor thing! Da*n windex!

Hi girls,

Today I did a total body weight class at the gym (not as good as Cathe's:)).

We wanted to pay for my car without going through insurance, but looks like there's too much damage:rolleyes: My rates are through the roof as it is. When the insurance inspector called me he told me my name sounded so familiar . . . I told him that's because my other son totaled his car in January. The scary part is he covers all of NJ and remembers our family ugh!! I think I'm going to have to keep his number on speed dial:eek: I'm so :mad: at my son I told him maybe he should take more driving lessons:confused: (this is his 3rd accident and he also has a few tickets).

Belinda - Hope you had fun with cardio today . . . have you been getting sore with all the discs?

Amelia - I never did do YogaX . . . you'll have to let me know how you like it. I know some people don't like Tony but he doesn't bother me. One of the things I like about P90x is the time clock on the bottom.

Iris - I hope you go to Daytona . . . I would love to hear all about it. The try-outs sound like fun, but I would just stand there and freeze.

Lori - Looks like summer is almost over . . . you're posting more. I can't wait to hear how you like insanity dvd's. They'll be a piece of cake for you. When you get packages does custom's open them? How do they determine how much money you owe?

Cookie - Wow the wedding is almost here!! Did you have to get new sheets because the mattress is higher? With all the boys going to different places does this mean you'll only have your daughter home with you?

Helene - You'll love CTX, leaner/meaner legs is a good one. Are you sore today?

Trish - How's STS going? Do your children start school before labor day it seems like in NJ it's all different days?

Have a great night everyone!!

Evening!
Belinda, gee do you think 91# might have something to do with those doms?!!! What did you decide to do today? Maybe a rest day? How long do you usually work out for?
Amelia, I like your DD's drawing! Noticed it before and was wondering about it. Thanks for clarifying. What yoga are you doing? Re cheats: lately I just take a meal that is out as my cheat. Even if it seems clean, I count it as my cheat. Otherwise, I don't do cheats 'cause I have no willpower.
Iris, typing this and wearing a sweatshirt! I like the hotter weather much more. Have four, and one boy we've raised since he was 8, now he's 26. Why are you waiting til after Saratoga? Just do it. Think I know what you mean about your neighbor. Had a hall monitor who I tried my absolute best to avoid and he'd park himself outside my office. Did you do the whole BM2 wo?
Trish, did you sleep well last night or wake the DH up to ask him if he was hot/cold? Don't you wonder what's up with them? When do you think you're doing the yogafit dvd? Am curious what you think of it.
Deb, I'm so sorry to hear about your son and the car. Just remember you can't kill him - they won't allow you computer access to keep posting with us. Only sharing that thought since I've had it from dealing with my own. Had to get all new bedding since we went from a full to king-size. The mattress is 18" deep! Need to get more pillows. Yes, just the DD is here. The boys just drop in for a few days at a time but long enough to create havoc.
Lori, don't you hate it when your DH finds out what you've been up to? I sometimes think the UPS and FedEx guys try to get me in some trouble from time to time. Like waiting til I'm not home for a couple of days to bring boxes. Don't they realize without us they won't be in business? Just trying to help the economy...
Helene, so what did you think of meaner legs?
Slept til 6:30 this morning and am loving the new bed and mattress. Should never have waited this long. My dad is in town and took him off to see a Vanderbilt mansion. We won't be purchasing it though. While the bldg was lovely and beautiful grounds, the interior is tacky and gaudy. Plus some of the gold was flaking off the ceiling. If they're not going to use quality materials ...

Howdy Girls,

Busy day at work today so no time to post. Woke up at 3AM last night (on my own) and couldn't back to sleep for a couple of hours. I did 40 mins of CCV4 burning 389 calories. Tomorrow is supposed to be a rest day but I'm thinking about doing the YogaFit DVD. Only concern is my abs are still sore from my wo a few days ago. I may do it anyway....we'll see how my sleep goes tonight.

Belinda - Did you decide to take a rest day today? I'm sure your body will thank you;)

Amelia - How was your outing with Cassie girl? (Love the name!) My little kittie Sterling is spread out in my lap and making it hard for me to type..but I just can't move him. He's so lovable. I used to be really good with one cheat meal a week, but my eating for the past few months has been so poor that I'm trying to hold off for a while. If your self control is pretty good, go for it. Oh, and I love the artwork:)

Iris - Oh, I've got a whack job of a neighbor, too! Actually, two. The first lives next door and asked my DD (who was 16 at the time) to borrow money once. WTH??? He's so strange. The other commutes on the same train as I but doesn't acknowledge me in any way. Such a creep. Can't wait to hear about your wacko!

Lori - ^5s on the DOMs! Did you get more packages today? Wow, Insanity looks intense! I wonder how it will compare to STS Cardio. Did you pre-order that one?

Deb - STS is going good...still loving Meso 2. I have one week left and then my recovery week which I may cut short since I usually end up with 2-3 rest days each week. 7YO DD starts school on 9/2 and 2YO DD starts school on 9/9. It irks me that they are not out of school at the same time most of the year. I'm looking forward to having them back on a regular schedule.

Cookie - Glad you are enjoying your new bed. I can imagine it feels huge after going from a full size. Unfortunately I didn't sleep too well last night...hopefully tonight will be better. I previewed YogaFit last night...it certainly looks challenging. I'm thinking I might give it a try in the AM. Enjoy your visit with your dad. My dad is my favorite person to visit with...Yup, I'm a daddy's girl.

Helene - Hope you had a great day.

Nighty, night ladies.
