Good morning,

I will do some yoga today. Tomorrow I am starting Meso 3:eek:

I will be back later!

Have a great Sunday, everyone!
 
I am done with Gentle Yoga with Suzanne Deason! I forgot how good that one was, she does a lot of exerices for your spine/back. Need to pull that one out more often;) I added my PT exerices too.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend, ladies! BBL!
 
Good Morning!:)

We went to a party last night and didn't get home until 2...then DS woke up again when I checked on him. The last time I seen the clock it was 3:07!:mad: And i woke again at 7:45. I do have to work so I need to get up anyway but I was hoping to sleep a little later cause I have to go back to work tonight. Then I lay there and thought about working out and how I could fit it in. Would love to do it later today (after work) but I re-did my hair last night, adding more gel and more hair spray so I can't possibly do my hair for the 3rd time! LOL So I have decided to get on the TM @ 8:45 and off again @ 9:30. Thats all I have time for today and I should be able to get 5 miles in.

O.k...Im gonna have to motor if I want to get that workout started in 14 mins!:confused: I have a bit of a headache as well, not b/c I was drinking....lack of sleep I guess. I will be back when I get to work to catch up on personals!

Lori:)
 
Good Morning

Today is LM intervals 1-4 then 4ds core, then im hoping to get in some nice relaxing yoga...probably one of Rodney Yee's Am workouts.

Belinda-I will have to google that instructor and find out more about her workouts! Nice job today...

Lori-I got your pm and plan on looking it over and reading the links soon, thanks for taking the time to send it to me! Enjoy your run and work today!

Good Morning Ladies.

I am so sore from yesterday's workout....this is nuts. Meso 2 is going to beat me up I can already tell. :confused: I am already considering taking a rest week in between repeating the Meso...lol I don't know what cardio I'm going to do today...I told Cookie if she did CCC yesterday, I would do it today. ;) I might just do LIC premix, keep it low impact or half of LowMax. I'm not sure what I'll be able to handle!

Omg....so sometimes I look like a wreck job when I workout, but yesterday (being a first time workout) I wore my racerback bra and tank and cute little pants (it just motivates me). Anyways, I'm about to undress to hop in the shower, and there is a knock on the door.Take a wild guess! I was shocked, mortified, and nervous all at the same time to see DJ standing at the front door, the last person I expected to see on the weekend unless it's snowing....lol He apologized up and down...I said to stop, I'm the one who's always saying to stop over if my blinds were open ( he knows it means I'm up and on the move), just didn't expect it! He said he was on call, had to stop in for something, and thought he would check that the paint dried right (yeah ok). He didn't stay long ( he even had his dog with him...lol), because we both knew I was running late it was so obvious I needed a shower, but I didn't look that bad!!! LOL

I saw DG yesterday very briefly, but we were so busy he didn't come close and I didnt leave the bar. I need to catch up with him this week and call this whole charade off.........:rolleyes:

Belinda- I'm always looking for restorative yoga dvd's....I am definitely going to check that one out. So you start meso 3 tomorrow?? That's awesome....I'm scared of meso 2, I can't imagine the next one! lol

Lori- There's nothing wrong with asking a guy out! Especially if your ego can handle the possible rejections....lol It's a way to go after what you want! I have done it, but I really hesitate now. Nice workout yesterday!

Amelia- I've always admired how you've stayed so steadfast in your goals since I've known you. :) You will absolutely reach your goals by June! And I'm with you on artificial sweeteners!!! That and coffee and key lime pie martini's are my downfall....lol

Deb- So are you feeling more spirited today?? I did Chest,shoulders, tri's yesterday as well....the fact that I got through it made me feel happy...lol Maybe the warmer weather helped you yesterday?? And DJ only works weekends when he's in call (which I think is like every 6 weeks or something), and when it snows, he plows. And yes we did had dinner!! The pic was towards the end of the evening...I think we were at the restaurant almost 5 hours...lol

Helene- How was tubing? I will be so impressed if you got 40/20 in after that, because tubing is exhausting, especially if you are climbing back up hills!

Trish- We've missed you! Next time please invite me to your pity party.......I will bartend for it! I've been where you are though, and probably will be again, it's just the cycle of life it seems like. :confused: (((hugs))) How is everything else going?

Cookie- How was your day yesterday?? (I'm almost afraid to ask...lol)

Ok BBL!
 
I forgot to mention....did anyone happen to watch Rachael Ray Friday? She had Ricco DiSpirito on there with his new recipe book called Now Eat This...i think im gonna pick it up, there is over 150 comfort foods in it that are all UNDER 350 calories! They made Cheese sticks that looked DELICIOUS and some pizza that i want to try...

Iris- thank you so much for your kind words, they mean a lot to me:) High fives on your DOMS. enjoy your workout today!
 
workout done, i wish i would have worn my HRM...its in the bedroom where my DH is sleeping(he worked last night,didn't want to disturb him). Did Day #2 of FF's rotation, i also added in some Yoga that was VERY relaxing.

My stomach still isn't quite right:( guess it will take a few days for it to settle down...

have a good day girls:)
 
'Morning or Afternoon - Whichever!
Belinda, you've about caught up with me on sts! I'm doing 28 and 29 today! Or maybe only 28... Any more results from all of your tests? I wrote that instructor's name down also to look into. How do you rate her as an instructor?
Lori, hey I want that info too! I'm the old lady here and have achy joints! Please? So did dh share or did you get more clothes?
Deb, there was no food 'cause I ate all of it. Thought of how much you all would have should have been there. It was so nice to put a face and voice with the words. Helene is really pretty and smart. Iris is about your height, just shorter than me (only I wore heels) and is cute and funny.
Iris, I did do cardio core yesterday morning and it was tough, especially since my stomach was acidic. Hmmm, wonder if it had anything to do with alcohol? Okay, just invite dj out, he's waiting for you to do so.
Helene, where did you go tubing? It is so much fun. Was looking at last weeks NYT's style magazine and there was an ad for these amazing Cole Haan shoes - made me wonder which ones you bought.
Amelia, sorry your stomach is not doing well. Could it be stress? Are you trying to give up coffee? Hope you feel better soon.
Trish, hey I can exercise and sweat like crazy, count calories and still nothing budges with me. I find it all so frustrating that I seldom ever get on a scale and just use my clothes as a guide. However, the dr put me back on cortisone and now I'm all puffy again, so I am steadfastly refusing to get anywhere near that monster. Maybe you should put yours away for a while. Don't beat up on yourself so much - it is a number not who you are.
Ok, off to 28.

Hey Girls!

I feel hungover...but Im not. Just as well I drank!;) I can't believe I have to come back here tonight. I guess I won't mind when I get my pay check!:p

Belinda** Hope you enjoyed your workout today. Before you know it you will be done with STS! 3rd times a charm!

Ameila** Good job with your workout. Do you have everything unpacked? Im guessing my parcel won't be here until 2 weeks or so. I love getting things in the mail...not bills though! LOL

Iris** Checking to see how the paint dried...hmmmm...interesting! I don't think thats why is popped by! Its a good thing you had your cute outfit on! Imagine if you picked out one that didn't match! Or something like I would do...pick out white shorts and have dark underwear on underneath! Hahahahaha!!! As you can see, Im not trying to impress anyone.

Cookie** Sure i can send you the pm...no sweat! Im interested to see if this stuff really works. My running partner said, " you do realize that this is all just garbage" Kinda ticked me cause I think she thinks, we have to do the exact same thing that she did for training the last time. She won't be saying that when I leave her in my dust on race day:eek: It could very well be garbage BUT she doesn't have to be so negative about it. My BIL does alot of research and I trust his judgement.

So I managed to get 5.5 miles in earlier and I didn't feel to tired at all. DS was mad again when he seen me taking off my jammies! LOL He as to learn that he can't come between mommy and her workouts!

Lori:)
 
Hi girls,

No workout in yet. We're leaving to go take my Mom out to lunch/dinner for her birthday tomorrow. I hope I can squeeze in kickboxing or something when I get back.

Belinda - Kudos you made it to Meso 3:)

Lori - What better place to be at work with a hangover:eek: maybe you can squeeze in a nap.

Amelia - That book caught my eye too . . . it's on my list;) The food looked really good.

Cookie - Your right I would have loved to be there. I'm thinking you guys are about 3-4 hours away though.

Iris - I pictured you as being around 5'8 not sure why. Hm, looks like DJ is trying to make the move:)

Helene - Are you sore from tubing?

Trish - Hey at least you didn't gain anything.

Have a great day:)
 
Hi Everyone!

Belinda: Woohoo on starting Meso 3. Which leg workout are you going? Cookie was saying how much she loves the Plyo legs ones. I bet you are feeling good with the rest week you had!

Amelia: Yeah, nice to see you logging in again. I should pick a weight I need to reach by June. I am just sick of the diets. I need to figure out a lifestyle thing that works for me. I just keep going to prepared food lately to save time. The fridge at work is loaded with lean cuisines..... Nice workout.

Cookie: So you did do CCC! Way to go. It sounds like Iris might have dropped that one! Hope you are enjoying your sunday. The weather is beautiful. I forgot my food at the restaurant the other day. Too bad. I am looking foward to my next margarita! I think the tubing was at a place called West Mountain or something. It's at Exit 18 on the Northway.

Iris: That is absolutely too funny about DJ! yes, paint much always be checked........very important.......of course........ I didn't do 40/20 yesterday. That was quite enough thank you with the tubing. We had so much fun, but it was tiring. I think PH and tubing looks just fine in the rotation.

Deb: Happy Bday with your mom. I am a little bit sore from yesterday, but I can't figure out if it's from the tubing or PH. LOL. By the way, the other night at dinner, I kept thinking if you doing the genie thing and showing up :eek: I was told I look like LauraMax by the way.....

Trish: Nice to hear from you. It was awesome seeing everybody the other night. Sorry you are having so much pain in your shoulder and knee. :confused: Have fun picking out your next rotation.

Lori: Hope you are having a good day. Did you run another marathon with this lady in the past? Did you beat her last time :p? Too funny about not doing your hair for the third time. I have been using the same bottle of hairspray for three years. It's a hand me down from my mom too :eek:

DD just got up. In short: great day, up at 5:30 with DD, then 9am yoga with DS, followed by shopping for groceries and playing in the circle. I am thinking of doing the original BM tonight. It's a new one for me and it looks good.
 
Evening....

Iris: A couple of questions for you. Which of the eat-clean cookbooks do you have? I see tosca reno has two (one keep you lean, the other helps you burn fat LOL). Is it a new edition of the old or different? Any ideas of others that might be interesting? Also, do you know why dairy seems to be out for this diet? I am thinking of giving it a try. Don't know though I love my dairy, so not sure if it would just be setting myself up to fail.... Any input?

...... quiet evening otherwise.

See you all in the morning!
 
Good Evening Ladies

Well I ended up doing 30/30 and Stab. Abs from B&G (inspired by Lori):). I went down to spend the day with my mother and we watched Glory (one of the movies DJ let me borrow)......I think the other one I will suggest we watch together(well....maybe...it's a bit gory I'm sure, I think I'd rather watch North and South with him, since it's a fave for both of us.) My shoulders are so sore today, that I'm having a hard time even getting a jacket on. :confused:

Helene- The cookbook I have is the Keep you Lean one. I didn't know there were editions? There is dairy in some of the recipes (especially the breakfast), but it's more of a sub I think since some people dont' do dairy. But now, come to think of it, the pankcake recpies have dairy. I do dairy because I believe it is necessary for the nutrients is has (but that's just me!) However, I do believe I have some interolance for too much (especially cheeses, cream cheese, etc). I drink Organic Fat Free Milk, and the a couple times a week have some provolone on a sandwich, and oops I forgot Cottage cheese and yogurt in moderation. Besides dairy, I cannot think of a better way to get the proper calcium. I hear too much about osteoporosis.....it scares me, and early menopause runs in the family. I want to be prepared, strong, and healthy. Geez I hope that helps a little bit....... and if you dont' have this book and are interested in recipes, just let me know!

Deb- How was your lunch/dinner? Hope you could get a workout in for yourself. LOL @ 5'8! In my dreams! Are you saying I look short in the picture? :eek: lol

Lori- Glad you could squeeze in a workout! Sometimes the only time I DON'T feel tired is when I'm working out.....:confused: Everything I do around it is exhausting...lol LOL @ white shorts/dark underwear...I've done that, but I wont' be anymore! I've lived in this apartment for 8 months......all of sudden I care about what I wear working out. :eek:

Cookie- Dang, you are forcing me into CCC on Tuesday....lol Glad you could get it in! Yeah I bet it was that wine.......;) What time did you end up getting home Friday? If I bite the bullet with DJ, I'll be breaking every rule I've set for myself...:confused: But he might be feeling the same way, because from the way it sounded the day after the fire, he's pretty much sworn off women. A couple of times I've heard him say "never again".....it's why I hesitate! Well we'll see what happens tomorrow when he comes to replace my doorhandle...lol

Amelia- I saw a cookbook at Walmart today that was "healthier" comfort foods....go figure. Wonder if it was along the same lines? I'm not an RR fan......and everyone knows it, so that's what they started calling me after the fire. :mad: I'm sorry you're still having stomach issues! Sometimes the body takes its own sweet time bouncing back!

Alright ladies...have a wonderful evening, and we'll chat in the morning!
