COMMIT TO GET FIT AND LEAN FOR JUNE 11, 2010

[bayerngirl]

Good morning,

I will go for a short run before it gets to hot outside, it's hot (90's) here in Germany. And no AC

I have an ENT appointment this morning, I will be back with personals. I am well rested today, had enough sleep!


Have a great workout and day, everyone!

 

[gidget1978]

Good Morning!

I went to bed at a sensible time last night but I still didn't want to get up at 6:10 to workout! I fell back to sleep for another 20 mins or so. DS slept with me so maybe I didn't sleep as well as I thought I did.

I am sooooo sore from yesterdays workout. Mainly my chest. Going up in weight really makes a big dif. Not only that, its usually a big jump cause after 12lbs,everything goes up by 5lbs.....which is alot for each arm. Todays workout is going to be a run outside, I never did do cardio yesterday.

Belinda** Glad to hear its warming up in Germany for you. I don't think it ever gets that hot here.Enjoy your run!

Iris** So do you have a DG story today?? I think you may!

Ameila** I think the reason why I was having trouble downloading was b/c my computer kept going in hybernation mode and I think that was interferring. I am sure you will enjoy SB. Its soooo much cheaper to download the workouts instead of buying them!

Trish** Aren't men all alike? DH claims to have the same house chores b/c he mows the lawn in the summer and cleans up dog crap, and in the winter he as to get rid of the snow! puh!

I think that catches me up with personals. My boss is making an appearance AGAIN today! It's always on MY shift!!! NEVER on my coworkers! What is up wit dat?? Ugh! Its also my DH"s b-day today. We are going to his moms for hamburgers and hotdogs outside after work. Something different I suppose. And we will actually be celebrating next Fri night!

I will bbl to report my workout!

Good Morning!

Belinda: How did the flight go by the way? Were your ears OK during that time. I hope you get to the bottom of this. Good luck if you start a P90X and insanity rotation.

Iris, Cookie: Did you get my PM with directions?

Iris: oh no..... DG. I take it you were posting from work since it was so short.

Trish and Deb: yeah, cleaning for company is the only bad thing. But it will be fun and I hope they don't care that my house looks nice from the outside but is not so clean on the inside. Reminds me I need to have the carpets cleaned

Amelia: That is the cutest picture. That is one cute puppy! I am melting! How did the download work? I used to do SB all the time and now it's been a while.

Lori: So DH was one armed for a while Good Job on MM yesterday and have a fun evening for DH's Bday.

Deb: What do you think of turbo Jam? I have some workout money burning a whole in my pocket. I keep hoping that Cathe will scratch that filming itch and announce a pre-sale because that really is the best way to spend my money, but I'm not sure it's coming anytime soon.

Hope I didn't miss anyone.

I was actually trying to post most of this last night and then the kids were fighting as it was getting close to bedtime. I had to go. So my post was almost ready for this morning. OK, going to the basement to do M2 legs. I hope It won't be like two weeks ago where I could walk for 5 days. That was too much DOMS.

'Morning!
Belinda, you're back! So glad to hear from you. How did the appt go? And right back to your wo too. Don't mean to be a naysayer, but I think you might want to be sure your back is completely, completely healed before Insanity. I really think the impact of going from vertical exercises to horizontal (like pushups) so quickly and repeatedly is what reinjured my shoulder.
Amelia, you're tempting me. Yesterday driving I was thinking about getting another dog! That's your infuence - TG I didn't have time or I would have stopped to look somewhere for one. Tomorrow I have to take my dd to the mall, where there's a shop. However, I wouldn't get one from one of them - either a shelter or a breeder, and since funds are low...
Helene, trust me you never have to worry about cleaning for me! Got your pm and am looking forward to seeing you and Iris and little ones. Don't know how you get everything done.
Iris, so it's official! Congrats. It must be a relief for you to be ending it. Would your parents be able to help you out if you need it over the next couple of months?
Deb, did you get your wo in? I was so tired yesterday morning I only did 1/2 hour and then overslept this am. I think lack of sleep and stress is catching up with me. Have two state reports due and they just moved a 8/1 due date to 6/30, which for approvals and all means I have another one due in a week! I hate paperwork. Do you have much with your job?
Trish, how do you manage to do so many wo and get everything done? Honestly, kids, work, commuting, house I can't figure out how people do it. When I try, I just crash from lack of sleep and then eat bad cause I'm tired.
Yes, gang, I love hockey. My favs are the Red Wings, but had to root for the Blackhawks since mine were out. This year's series was such an exciting one for hockey fans. Also love tennis, so this is a great time of year for me.
Okay, off to be buried in two feet of paperwork.

Good Morning Ladies

I feel like a Zombie. I'm so beat I can't stand it. And my schedule isn't looking any prettier over the course of next week. But today should be fun! It's just hard because I'm so tired to look forward to it....lol I took the day off so I could go to Hoffman's playland with my 4 year old cousin, who's mommy is too pregnant to go on any of the rides. So I got voted in. If he says " tilt a whirl" I'm outta there.

So....DG never came back after the first time. I saw him by the bar getting racing papers and said a cheery hello as I was walking by to head to the kitchen. He couldn't believe i would just walk by him and not stop and talk. So I did for a minute, and he thinks I'M the one up to something, because I was in such a good mood, I just kept smiling...he couldn't stand it! He says he didn't 'do anything'.....I said even if you were telling the truth, it's already in my head that you can't keep it in your pants, and I already feel gross about it. (I was still smiling), then I had to listen to the same *hit about how I ruin everything....yada yada yada....LOL But then he asked if i was working a double. I said yep (still smiling), he didn't like that for whatever reason, just gave me a look and left. But didn't see him again. Hehe. Can't wait for next week's episode.

Helene- Yes I got your directions!! Yeah you live pretty darn close to me. Didn't know you lived by Twin Lakes? I had a cousin that lived there, I always loved those apartments. So how's between 6:30 and 7 sound??

Lori- Good enough DG story? lol wtg on DOMS. Have a good run! Happy Birthday to your DH.

Trish- Very nice workout yesterday!! I still haven't tried any CC's. I"m too stuck on listening to my own music while on the treadmill. But I AM going to try Jillian's podcasts for some different entertainment on my next run. My last official day is thursday, the 24th, but I think I'm already covering on the 26th....lol

Belinda- Good luck with your doc appointment this morning. So glad you made it home finally! I'm sure you'll tell us which rotation you decide on .

Amelia- How did downloading step blast turn out?

Deb- Yes still going to NJ on the 21st! I'm driving down that Sunday, taking the class Monday morning, then driving up to Vernon to visit my instructor's facility (the one for my second certification) and taking a pilates class with her and doing some intern hours. I am very excited! Can you come you think?

Ok gotta get ready to go to the gym....BBL!

 

[gidget1978]

Hey Girls!

Quick check in while no one is around.

My run today was almost an hour long, and 12k. That's the furthest the dog as went yet but he did great.

Iris** He def thinks you are up to something or he is wondering why you aren't pinning for him! Looks good on him!

Helene** I don't have to worry about kids fighting, there is to much of an age difference with mine. But Im willing to bet when he is 5 and she is 16 he will be teasing her and all of her friends!

Cookie** Hope you are enjoying that paper work!

BBL!
Lori

Hallo girls,

This morning I went for a 40 min. slow run It was so hot outside, had to slow down my HR way up I need to wake up early if I wanna go for a long run!

My ENT appointment went well. The doctor is suprised my ears are clear on the other hand he is very concerned that I am getting another fungus infection(since I been on antiboitics for so long, which in my case can cause another outbreak!) I also taked to him about a second surgery for my sinus (since I had sinus surgery last year I been having problems with my ear ), he ask me if I had the CT scan from the hospital in GA, I forgot to ask for one My DH will call the hopital in Georgia today and have them sent me a CD. I was brain dead on Monday, I knew I forgot something I am so tired of having an ear/sinus infection every month, I am willing to get another sinus surgery. That infection was the worst one I ever had, I don't want to go through this again. I still have an sinus infection after 2 1/2 weeks on antibiotics and I am still on antibiotics. By now I should have been cleared up what ever it takes, I will do it, I had enough.

Cookie, I haven’t even thought about my back, thanks for reminding me! I think I will do another round of STS on Monday. How is your shoulder doing btw?
I
ris, sending lots of energy vibes! Sorry about DG. Let me know how you like JM podcasts workouts.

Lori, going up 5 lb makes a huge difference. Nice job, girl! Have fun with your run today! Have a fun evening with your DH.WTG on your run today. Give your poor dog a break, lol.

Amelia, hope the downloading went smoothly, I had no problem downloading. It’s easy!

Trish, nice job with CC yesterday. I just love them!

Helene, flight was fine! It did border my sinus not so much my ears, weird! Enjoy M2 legs today.

Debbie, what are you doing today?

Hope I didn't miss anybody, if I did I am sorry! Still very tired!
Oh, BTW! DH is buying a new bike for me tomorrow, he always goes for bike rides. I think he wants me to start going with him

Have a great Friday and weekend.

 

[DebD]

Hi girls,

No workout yesterday my hip hurt too much & still does I need to do something today because of PMS so I'm going to do Pyramid upper body & follow it with stretch max.

I'm also going to plant flowers on my deck today.

A couple of you asked me about Turbo Jam. I find it to be beg./int. Charlene is coming out with Turbo Fire and they are comparing it to Insanity so if your going to spend $$'s I would wait for the reviews of Turbo Fire and see.

Belinda - So you came back to hot weather, hopefully you have a fan Are you still jet lagged?

Lori - All we had to do was take out the leash and my dog would be so excited. It's amazing how dogs always want to exercise What's the hottest your temps go to in the summer?

Helene - Are the kids excited to have visitors tonight? Have fun

Cookie - I have to report along with pictures everything I do in the stores and I am behind. I need to catch up today. Wow, that stinks that they moved the deadline up so much Have fun at Helene's tonight.

Iris - I'm sure the look on DG's face when he finds out will be priceless I am trying to come on the 21st hopefully I can find out how I'm doing on the waitlist for the RT. You are trying to fit a lot of things in on the 21st, your going to need a lot of caffeine.

Amelia - That puppy was so cute. I always peek in the pet shop and check out the dogs, but I end up feeling sorry for them

Trish - Looks like you have been catching up with your sleep & getting your workouts in This weekend is going to be beautiful

Have a great day

Morning girls

I can't believe I was up until 3am with DH watching season two of Trueblood last night! HBO is showing it before the new season that starts on sunday...I feel SO LAZY waking up at 9:30 am

Todays workout (much later) will be HSC (did I just say that?)

Well, the download went well. The first attempt i forgot to save it(leave it to me) so my DH took over and he downloaded it then he put it on a dvd for me for back up. The only complaint i have about it is that it took over 6hours for the whole process(download, then converting, then burning the dvd). Im getting an itch to download ALL the ones i want...including STS!!

Cookie-I feel the same way about those pet places in the malls, there really expensive. LoL, sorry to influence you, hopefully your urge will fade like mine has. If i got a puppy right now i would be a fruit cake by the end of the day! ( fruitier than I already am,lol ) But they sure are cute.

Lori-Nice job on your Doms! I love waking up to doms (not the painful ones though,lol) i had some doms from MIS the other day, the chest work in that one is brutal. Nice run today...I bet your doggie is loving those runs! My lab is pretty pissed at me right now..i haven't walked her in forever. Its just to stinkin hot!

Iris-Im with ya in Zombie land today. Have a great time with your 4yr old cousin today...sounds fun, hopefully there will be no motion sickness involved in today's experience BTW-Braves are still #1

Helene-lol,there is definitely a limit on how much DOMS i can handle I think the ones that cause pain while i go potty are the worst Crossing my fingers that you don't have an overload of doms from todays workout!

Belinda-Your temps are similar to my temps here in GA...just frickin HOT! Enjoy your run today and glad to hear your feeling better girl!

Trish-How is your week going so far?

Debbie-How's your day going so far?

bbl

 

[helened]

Hello again

Love Fridays!

Belinda: What an adventure. I can't remember if you mentioned, but have they tested your infection somehow (not sure they can) to check if it's resistant to any of the type of antibiotics you're on? Anyways, I really hope they can do something about it. I think long bike rides with your DH would be awesome.

Deb: Thanks for the info. I'll save my money then. I wish they had a box to drop Cathe begging email to just come up with a pre-sale. Yeah, I know, something is wrong with me. I'll wait to see about turbo fire, but they also mentioned Shaun T coming up with asylum. But maybe that one is next year? Sorry you still have trouble but an upper body workout sounds great. I haven't told the kids about the visitors tonight .... and that's because they are MY visitors

Amelia: I downloaded the entire library before Xmas. It took me about 45 minutes per workout. They are all working out great for me. Although, some DVDs I won't part with because of the premixes that you don't get with the downloads. Just try and pry BM2 from my hands, I dare you I bet you would enjoy the weather up here right now. Upper 70s and dry

Lori: Good job puppy. I know you can handle 12k no problem. When they grow up, we really should have DS and my DD meet. She just has so much personality.

Cookie and Iris: You don't have to wait tonight. You can show up starting at 6:15PM. I am not planning anything fancy at all but at least it will be healthy. Of course, Iris is bringing the fancy stuff

OK, did disc 17 (M2W2 legs) this morning. The DOMS will be under control, I can already tell. The last time was M2W4 and I could tell that I had overdone it during the work out. This one was good too though. My legs were shaking at the end. On top of it, when I stopped and sat to stretch, the sweat just started pouring down my face. Sure sign of a good workout.

Have a great day everyone.

 

[punka274]

waiting for my breakfast to digest before hitting my workout. (can't believe i ate breakfast at 11:30? VERY SAD its going to be a very long day)

Helene-day and the 70's sounds like heaven, sigh...its so humid here,just sitting on the porch in the nighttime is torturer. Nice job on your workout. I wish they would offer the premixes on the downloads

 

[punka274]

quick check in, HSC done! Did everything but the core work. I really pushed my self with that workout...my stomach is hurting

 

[Pinny150]

Hi guys!

It's been a later afternoon than I thought! lol Riding the rides was so much fun. My stomach only took a slight beating. He mentioned Tilt a Whirl...... I hid behind my mother....LOL I got out of going on that.

My session went well today. The hard thing with DC is that he OWNS the place! So he wants to stop and say hello and chat with everyone that comes in, which OF COURSE is fine because that's what he needs to do for his business, but it just takes away from the focus of our workouts, and it kind of throws me off a little bit. He is so multi-focused. At one point he was telling me something about a member, and I just kind of gave him a blank look I guess, because he thought something was wrong. I said no, I'm just very focused on your shoulder presses, like you should be. hehe. Cookie and Helene, I'll go into more detail tonight...at least I wont' be talking about DG for once!!!

Ok I will definitely be back for personals in the morning!! It's either that or no tuna beans tonight...lol

Helene- I'll lurk for a bit if you get this, I'm feeling like wearing jeans tonight......I dont' know why, I just wanted to let you know. lol

Bye ladies!

Ohhh yeah...today was a rest day. When's the last time I actually reported my workouts??

 

[helened]

Amelia: Nice workout Have you been using the kids pool with this weather ?

Iris: Alright, we can talk about DC, but I'll be darned if we can't talk about DG. Just when it's getting fun and you have the upper hand If you think I am going to stay in my work clothes for you, you are nuts! So jeans are fine. I won't be taking you on a tour of the upstairs cooking area LOL! Glad you had fun. You are around kids more than usual today, that's for sure!

OK, I'm off, pick up the kids and then go home. I have company tonight
