Morning girls,

Feel much better this morning, had a good night sleep! Needed it:D I will do cardio today, not sure if I can drive to the gym with all that snow we got since yesterday. I wll wait until this afternoon, hope the roads are clear by then.

I will be back later! Have a great weekend!
 
Good Morning!

Sorry I didnt get back for personals yesterday!:eek: But I had good intentions!:D I didnt go to bed again last night until late so Im not to energetic here. BUt I didnt get woken up by the alarm, it was a elbow in the chin, right where I have a pimple brewing!:confused: When i said "ouch, you elbowed me" He says " No I didnt, I never moved" What a idiot!

I have a little bit more time to workout today because I dont have to drop DS off at the sitters.:confused: So I am hoping to do abs and cardio.

I am going to read yesterday thread and then I will bb!

Lori:)
 
Alrighty.....

Belinda** So do you guys have alot of snow right now? We usually see the German Airforce quit a bit this time of year so I usually ask them...but I usually know what they are gonna say, cause I heard it from you;) Imagine, some of these people I meet probably know who you are. They usually leave from Cologne.

Ameila** I think I would have had to tape the dogs mouth shut:eek: You must have been soooo pissed! Charlie likes to bark but I must say, in the night time he is pretty quiet. I dont even think he looks to see who is coming halfof the time, he just barks. DD could come down over the steps and he barks out of no where. Drives me nuts!!! What did you think of TBL this season? The 200 lbs people look small next to the 400-500 lbs people. They always manage to find bigger people dont they. I wonder will they ever have a 700 lbs person? Then again, they are probably confined to their bed.

Iris** I hear ya on the late nights, I really need to start going to bed early. So lazy in the a.m!

Deb** Did you have a good night last night? Did you get a big head?? LOL I dont like wine and its probably a good thing!

Helene** When do you leave for vaca? Is it FL again? Im not sure where we are going this year, if anywhere. DH told me how much the hot tub actually cost last night so I feel the need to stay home now:eek: I actually beleived what he told me mother...I should have knowen the dif!

Cookie** Thats funny about you walking through the house first before the kids. My house was ramshacked in the basement last night when I got home. The girl that is staying with us watched DS and she usually cleans up but not last night! My God what a disaster! I think she is getting lazier all the time. She use to be a great help but I think she is getting in a rut of doing nothing. She use to help with the house work once a week but the last time she cleaned the house was when we were in FL! Then she use to clean her own bathroom but by the looks of it the other night the shower hasnt been cleaned in a while. Her BF is away for work and she has been staying at his apt. She complains that she has weight on, but yet does nothing about it. Anyway, she thinks she will be moving by the end of Feb!:eek: After 2 yrs of living with us, we may actually have our house to ourselves!


O.k...I have to get this workout started!
Lori:)
 
Good Morning Ladies!

It is back to disc 1 today. Yesterday I did Step Moves and that is one cool workout!! Luckily I pick up choreography good ( only because of line dancing I think!) lol. Now since I'm doing the 6 month rotation, I'm not sure if I want to repeat the same cardio workouts that are on the rotation.....so what I might do is one week do Shock and the 2nd week do older cardio to keep it mixed up. We'll see what I feel like doing tomorrow!

Belinda- Nice job with D3 yesterday! I did it on Wednesday, and Friday (yesterday) is when I had major DOMS...:confused: So how much snow did you end up getting?

Amelia- I remember when I lived in SC, everything shutting down if we got a hint of snow.......and I tried to remind myself that an inch for the south is like a foot for us...lol What was really bad when I lived down there were the ice storms!! Brutal......and dangerous.

Lori- One of my month goals is to get at least 7 hours of sleep per night.
Have you gotten your shock workouts yet??

Deb- So how did your wine tasting party go?? That sounds like so much fun! How was zumba?

Hello to my neighbors! Where are you girls this saturday morning?? :p
BBL!
 
Morning

we had a sad night last night. Im not sure if I told you girls but when the inlaw's moved from next door we had to take in a very old family dog. They couldn't have animals where they were moving too. Hurcules, a 17yr old mix breed was my given to my husband originally but he settled with his parents in the end.

Hurcules passed away yesterday:( he was 17yrs old and not a bit of trouble. He LOVED his food, ate up until he passed actually. He would always remind me that it was dinner time by standing by the sliding glass door and staring at me. Sometimes he would pace. I feed him yesterday evening but he wasn't waiting...I figured he was asleep:( I felt bad having to keep him outside but he couldn't control his blatter or bowels. He was smart too, knew 5 tricks altogether.

As for my workout yesterday, it never happend. Today will be a different story..im doing cardio then some abb work.

BBL with personals
 
Hey Girls!

Well, I let the dog out this a.m and thats when I realized how nice it was out. I decided to go for it and run outside. It was chilly, to be expected but once I get moving (of course) I am fine. I had to becareful of the black ice though. I kind of kept to the side of the road where the gravel begins. So I did STS pilates abs before I went and then did 10 kms outside. I was aiming for 40 mins b/c thats all the time I had but once I got outside I took a different route home and it took me 48 mins to get home. There is nothing on the go here anyway.

Iris** No workouts yet. I contacted customer service and they said my package was shipped on the 30th. It usually takes 6-10 days to get here but considering the hoildays it may take a little longer...understandable. So hopefully Mon or Tues!

Ameila** Wow! Thats a long time to own a dog! Its so hard isn't it? If I think hard enough I can still feel Chico's fur and smell his paws. Don't dogs paws smell awesome. Like a bag of Doritos! Or maybe thats just canadian dogs:p Bet I made you laugh! Hope you get your workout in!

I will bbl!
Lori:)
 
Good morning girls,

I was good last night because I know tonight between drinks & italian food it will be hard:) It wasn't so bad afterall last night I hung out with the neighbors I knew and finally talked to my neighbor across the street. One neighbor wanted me to meet her DH because she told him I reminded him of a cheerleader:confused: they were pretty drunk.

I'm looking forward to doing Disc 3 Legs today:)

Belinda - I hope they clean the roads for you. Enjoy your cardio:)

Lori - It sounds like your having better weather than we are in the US:confused: You may be able to run outside all winter long:)

Iris - One of my neighbors was talking about a place that does line dancing every week but she said it's not a bar:confused: I thought about you.

Amelia - How sad about your dog, he was so cute. On the news today they were saying how many accidents there are in Atlanta due to the ice and not having the proper stuff to put down:( . . . I hope it's not affecting you.

Cookie - I hope things are calming down for you so you can have some down time this weekend:)

Helene - Are you planning another vacation? We're supposed to go to FL in the spring but we'll see what happens.

Trish - This weekend it's going to be so cold out:(

Have a great day everyone:)
 
Debbie, glad you had fun last night! Have fun with D3 today! My legs/butt is sore today. Instead of doing deadlifts, I did leg curls! :p

Lori, I can't believe you ran in this weather? You go, girl! LOL, I don't think any of those Airforce guys knows me:eek:

Amelia, sorry about your loss! That must be hard! (((HUGS))) Enjoy your cardio later!

Iris, glad you enjoyed Step Moves! Still havend open my DVD's:( I am doing the 3 1/2 mon rotation! We got about 6 in of snow:confused: Can't wait for that stuff to go away.

I have to eat dinner, than I will be back with more personals!
 
Morning

Amelia: So sorry about doggie. That picture is adorable. What a cute dog!
Speaking of bad weather, last year we had an ice strom that knocked the power out in the region. Had to stay in a hotel for a week :confused: That was not fun!

Iris: I've done step moves but I can't remember. I think I liked it fine, but I enjoyed athletic step more. And yes, I really like RS. As for the 6 1/2 months. I was ready to leave Meso behind at the end. But I was glad to have all that time with Meso 2. I never did meso 3 but was planing of doing Meso 3 over 1 month. I think this is all somewhat flexible anyways as long as you spend at least a month on each meso and work all the bodyparts.

Lori: LOL at the 3s being easier than 13. I know we'll get there with DD and it won't be fun. Hopefully this forum is still going strong at that time and all of you can comiserate and give me advice/sympathethy. Do you think my neighbors will get mad if I go smell their dog's paws :p Glad that DS had a nice party. DH is starting to plan DD's cake. He wan't to make a tree with Tinkerbell. We'll see how that turns out. Nice workouts!

Belinda: How long is DH gone for? I guess you must be used by now. But still, that's no fun. At least you've got Cathe and TCs to keep you busy :D Nice on doing leg curls. That's a good idea and when the weight goes up more I might do that as well. Nice TC workout. How is your back doing?

Deb: How are you doing? Are things starting to settle down? I hope so. How is DS reacting with all that by the way. Is he understanding that he screwed up? Do you think he and DS number 2 are learning from this? I still have to try Zumba some day. I really will have to go and for sure I will let you know about it. Keep getting your workouts in to relieve stress. At my age, if my neighbor said I looked like a cheerleader, I would be happy ;)

Cookie: How is your mom going? Is she better after the surgery now? Sorry you had to dig into the cookies. I've used that as substitute meals in the past as well. And also felt bad about it afterwards. I haven't seen you post about doing MIC in a long time. Maybe you are due for stress relief? Sorry you got stuck in your driveway.

I think I'm caught up. Sorry if I forgot anything :eek:
Hi to Trish! Wonder is you're in Hawaii at the moment.

It is cold here. And my basement was freezing. But I just did Hiit 30/30 so now I am warm. It was good and for sure easier than 40/20 but not a walk in the park either. I shouldn't wear my HRM though because it only said 241 calories at the end of it. I only paused once to add 10 seconds towards the end. I have two weeks until the next vacation (Atlantis in the Bahamas). I am so excited. You might be able to tell by my ticker choice.:cool: I still have to do M2D13 because I never got it in yesterday. Always more difficult when I have visitors, but now I am back on schedule.

Enjoy your weekends!
 
Hallo girls,

Back with more personals!;)

Amelia, I started STS on Monday, love it! Have fun with your workout today.

Helene, nice job on RS! Mixing up Meso's, sounds like fun and intersting. DH will be back next Friday! One day my back hurt, the next day I feel better. Thanks for asking.

Iris, glad you still got your workout in yesterday. I got up this morning with DOMS! Glad you enjoyed the retiremtnt party. Have fun with D1 again!

Cookie, hope your day turns out better today. ((HUGS)) Stay away from the cookies! How is your mom doing?
 
Debbie, how was your neighborhood wine tasting party yesterday? You are going to another party? You go, girl! Enjoy Zumba today!
 
Lori, we got 6" of snow! Thank goodness the roads are clear!

I will be back tomorrow! Have a great day, everyone!
 
Hey girls, i finished my workout. decided on LIS then PH abbs. Burned right at 400.

DH was home last night because he couldn't get out of the driveway:confused: he was probably crossing his fingers that he couldn't:rolleyes:

Hello to everyone,got to get some house work done.

have a great day and i will try and catch up tomorrow...my WI day:)
 
'Evening Ladies!
Belinda, I think you should be so famous by now that everyone knows you. Good job with sts, and glad your back isn't bothering you. Where did your dh go this time?
Lori, be careful running. My former running partner slipped last week when running with her new partner, and has a concussion and four-inch skull fracture. I considered taking the dogs out for a walk today, but decided it was too icy. It will be nice to have the house to yourselves.
Amelia, I'm so sorry about your loss. Pets really do have their own personalities. What five tricks could Hurcules do? Are your children practicing ice skating in your driveway?
Helene, I'm so envious of you going on vacation again, and to someplace warm! Lucky you. I'll live vicariously thru you. Maybe I'll do MIC tomorrow - thanks for the idea.
Iris, we're all frozen up here. How long did you live in the south? And why then would you move north?!! Sorry, but I really don't like the cold, and would move in a heartbeat if my husband would agree.
Deb, I agree you are like a cheerleader. Cute, friendly, and caring. Hope your dh heard the comment. Sounds like it was a fun get together. Wine tasting sounds really good to me.
Disc 9 today, and oh it felt good. Wore my 20# vest with more of it. I like the change of velcro for the closing instead of a buckle. For some reason I have a hard time undoing the buckle on the 10#. My dh was surprised by some of the wts we all use doing sts. Think he is intimidated to start it. My mom is doing better. Last night had friends over for pizza and drinks.
Cookie
 
Back for a bit.

Belinda: Sorry your back fires up once in a while still. I was hoping you were done. Good that you are modifying the deadlifts for sure. I love mixing the STS workouts. I just started with Meso 2. Then I think I'll do meso 1 and then 3. I have 2 weeks to finish it all before vaca. That way I won't feel bad taking a short break.

Cookie: Yeah, I would move south too if I could. But I have a good job here so I'll stick around. We just came back from FL and the weather was nice though a bit colder than usual. But still very nice. I hope Atlantis will be warm. I would have gone later, but we were lucky as it is to trade our timeshare for the one in Atlantis. So I'll take it. Hum.....maybe I'll join you for MIC tomorrow. ;)

Amelia: I had forgotten tomorrow was WI day. Was it nice to have DH at home? Nice workout. Have you been working on your success story yet?

Did do M2D13 as well today (Hiit 30/30 this morning). My MIL joined me and it was fun. Turns out, she used to lift weights a lot when she was a lot younger so it was fun for her to join me. DH did get a space heater for the basement and it was a lot nicer that way. I put it right next to the fan, it looks funny. :p

Have a good evening everyone!
