'Morning!
Belinda, glad to hear you are doing better. Don't you love getting new toys? Wonder if you'll feel a difference from using the new ones? Enjoy the dog walk.
Sorry I didn't check in last night. I was exhausted. Catching up on work I didnt' do last night and with you ladies, so today will be a rest day. Yesterday did 4ds KB and abs, and then later 4ds HIS. No wonder I crashed - I'm not as young as you energizer bunnies. A super long day of work today, so I better get going.

Belinda-high fives on your new toys!! Is you nose showing any signs of clearing yet? Im glad your taking it a bit easier with the band workouts for the time being! Have a great walk!

Cookie! Mygoodness no wonder you crashed yesterday,nice going on your workouts....

Hey to everybody that pops in after me! Today is 4DS Biceps and Back then i will do a cardio for 40mins...not sure what yet!

I let my sister borrow on of my Cathe dvds',low impact step(one of my favorites), and i also gave her an old step that i haven't used in years(a smaller one) so she could see how she liked it. MAN,i don't like my Cathe workouts being borrowed i kept reminding her to be 'gentle' with the dvd,lol!

Good Morning!

I didn't go to bed last night as early as I wanted again and now I have to work tonight. But atleast there I get to relax Not like home! I think I really like my job DH said yesterday that he likes it when I am home all day long and he needs to figure out a way to keep it that way! Puh! I don't THINK so!

Im going to be going for another run today but it will be later this afternoon. I have my SIL's girls again until lunch time and I can go after that. Who knows....maybe....just maybe...I will get some weights in as well. If I don't get anything in today then I am definitley going to do a full body workout tomorrow. We have a party to go to tomorrow night that I am looking forward to. I haven't been talking to the "friend" ( i will use that word very losely) I went away with since i came back and she will be there tomorrow night. Its going to be ackward so either today or tomorrow I need to go to DH's store, where she works and just make eye contact and general "how are you" but not enough that she will think things are fine between us b/c I don't ever want her to call ME her bestfriend again. I need to get rid of this so called friendship. It always ends up making me mad or upset b/c of the stupid things she does. I wonder sometimes if I am being high maintance but Im not like it with my other friends.

I will be back in a bit, Im on the phone!

Workout done! I can't believe the sun is out today its time to lay in the sun.

Lori-Enjoy your run later and your 'rest' at work! Our car hasn't worked in over three months....i think thats my DH'es way of keeping me at home while he's working his brother was 'suppose' to come out and look at it three months ago...and everytime i bring it up he says "I'll call him tonight". Well,if he doesn't call him tonight im taking matters into my own hands and calling someone out to look at it...im tired of the B.S.

Good afternoon girls,

I took a spin class today and afterwards I had a checkup at the Dr.'s office. I needed to fast because of bloodwork, so I just ate lunch I didn't realize how much mindless eating I must do. I must have gone to the food closet and refrig several times looking for food and when I wasn't doing that, I was thinking about food

Belinda - Sounds like your getting some good workouts in. I bet you'll get DOMS too.

Cookie - You are becoming the energizer bunny!!

Amelia - I lent someone the Pure Strength videos. When she returned it 1 video was missing and a tin of cookies was in the bag. I would have rather had the video. Our Cathe's tapes are worth gold

Lori - I thought the girl you went to FL with was your running partner . You'll have to let us know how she acts at the party and write her off if she doesn't treat you like a friend.

Trish - I'm surprised they would start you with such heavy weights. Way to go!!! I was so happy the sun came out today, for once the weather men were wrong. Last night, I jumped out of bed when I heard the thunder and told my husband there must have been an explosion in the area

Hi girls,

Today I went for a 3 mil walk, this afternoon I did leg workout with tubing (the new one is tough). After dinner DH and I took another (over 1 miler) walk. The dogs are tired. Tomorrow I will do yoga or pilates and of course I will take the dogs for a walk.


Trish** WTG on your weights yesterday! I will get depressed real soon, if I can’t get a good workout in. I miss it!

Amelia** great workout today and yesterday. Sorry about your knee! Hope you feel better soon. My nose was so stuffed last night, I couldn’t sleep. The bleeding is getting a little better, hope it stays that way. Go get that car fixed!

Lori**when are you gonna start STS again? My son is coming June, he wants to go to England or Greece! I will start STS after he leaves. BTW, great 10 miler yesterday! Enjoy your run and your lunch with your SIL this afternoon. I agree with Debbie on your friend.

Debbie** hope you enjoyed your pilates yesterday and your spin class today! How did the doctor visit go? Are you ok? I am trying to get some sort of workouts in, since I can’t do any Cathe, running or weight lifting. My nose needs to get better soon.

Cookie** that tubing is tough, like Cathe’s green bands, lol! Great job with your workout yesterday. Enjoy your rest day today!

I will chat you all in the morning! Good night!

G'Night Ladies!

Hope everyone had a good day. I didn't do any wo today. I had planned to do LB, but my knee is giving me some trouble so nada for me. My shoulder is humming a little bit today, too. Can't tell if it's just DOMS or if maybe that crazy therapist went a little too heavy with my weights yesterday. I am back at PT tomorrow, so I'll see what he thinks.

Belinda - Please share some of your band wos. Doing LB weight work twice a week is a challenge for my knees and I could use a challenging band wo. I also ordered new bands, although they weren't Cathe's. I bought dynabands like my previous one (which snapped after two years of use). I ordered purple and green but only rec'd purple today which is the tougher one. Not ready to work with that one yet. Anyhow, again, great job on keeping up with the wos!

Amelia - I can understand how frustrated you must be over the car. I hope DH gets it fixed soon or else take the bull by the horns Great job on your wo!

Lori - So, did you get your wo in today? Did you talk to the *friend*? Enjoy your lobster party tomorrow

Deb - Ya know, I'm thinking the therapist went to heavy on the overhead press. The front raises were okay, but now I'm thinking the overhead press probably shouldn't have been more than 8lbs. I'll see what he thinks tomorrow. I'm hoping this weather stays around for a while. I couldn't believe when I heard on the news that we are still below normal on rainfall for this year. It feels like it has been raining for weeks!
