Good morning girls,

I am getting us started! Today the movers are bringing my stuff! YAH! And of course it's raining in Germany! I will try to check in later!
 
Good Morning!:)

We got back yesterday evening but I didn't check in...had to play with my boy instead:p He had the weirdest reaction when we got home. Its the first time both of us have left him for alnight and when I came home he saw me through the window and he came running. He stopped in the kitchen and was just starring at us, then he started to cry! LOL He threw his toy down and fell to the floor, slapping the floor...and he cried and cried. We were thinking that he was mad at us for leaving him home, or he could have been mad cause we came back:eek: Dh picked him up and he cuddled in but was still crying and he did the same thing to me. How weird is that? You would think that he would have been jumping for joy cause we were home, instead he was mad that we left him! LOL

We had a good trip. It was nice to get away and just do our own thing. The wedding was also very nice and we didn't get to bed until 3:30. After the wedding was over we went into our rooms and ordered pizza. 3 of us had rooms together and we just opened the doors in between them so we could walk back and forth.

I couldn't go see DH's uncle with him cause when I woke up Sat morning I was smothered in the flu! He is on oxygen so we thought it was best I stay away. On our way home yesterday we stopped in and I just went to the door and spoke with him, while he was at the top of the steps. While DH was visiting him on Sat I went for a little run, probably 10k or so, I didn't take a watch with me and had no clue where i was going. And yesterday was a rest day.

I am suppose to be working today but I took a sick day. I feel better then I did yesterday but I partly wanted to stay home with DS, plus I have sick days so its just as well to use them. They don't get carried over to the following year and we don't get anything for not using them so why suffer today out? When DS goes for his nap, Im going to get a run in on the TM.

Sorry so long...making up for lost time;)

Belinda** what are your workout plans for the day? Do you have any?

Im going to check up on what I missed while I was away!

Good morning girls

Today is my first day of school...i haven't checked in yet,been kinda regretting starting,LOL. Ive just got so much going on WHY did i even start this:confused: but like my DH told me last night...In two years when ive recieved my degree I will have had two years of experience in a doctors office(hopefully)and I will be able to apply at those top notch jobs that I see listed!

Tommorrow is my WI,but i peeked today and it was down .4....yay! Always glad to see that! Im losing exactly a lb a week...whether its two and one time or broken up into ounces...LOL!

Im suppose to do legs and abbs today but im scared that it will mess up my WI....won't hurt to do them tommorrow and do a cardio today!

Belinda-I hope the rain stops so you can get all your stuff moved in! Stinkin rain:mad:....but YAY on your stuff coming!:D

Lori-LOL at your sons response....maybe when he saw you too he remembered that he was suppose to go too...LOL! Did I read your post right? You still ran while having the flu? :eek: Glad to hear you had a good time at the wedding!

Kim-Glad to hear you ankle is feeling better! I hear on the breaks out...I can't use any kind of lotion on my skin,has to be fragrance free if i do. And i can only use Dove 'white' soap! I hope it diminishes for ya soon!

Ameila** I can't imagine going back to school!:confused: Like I have said before...I am done learning;)! LOL I always workout when I am sick, even if its just for a small workout. I think sweating the flu out of me is a better idea then laying around and waiting for it to leave. Have fun with your workout today!

I also took my radio back yesterday. I stayed in the truck while DH took it back but I guess I should have went in b/c all I got was a instore credit for $429:mad: I would have preferred to keep my radio! Im pretty sure I told him that but I was moody enough as it was and I didn't see the point in making him mad as well cause he was only going to say "you should have came in!":confused: So back to the 'ole ipod again:rolleyes: Which DD as claimed as her own b/c her's doesn't work anymore! Thats 3 she as went through in the last little while.
I was going to order a Ipod online with my gift card but of course everything I want is out of stock.

BBL!
Lori:)
 
BTW, I added new pics to my profile from this weekend. I didn't take them, they were taken by a friend. DH and I are sitting to the table, the other pics were just friends.
 
Where is everyone today?:confused: I take the day off of work to talk to you guys and then you all leave!;) UGH!:D

Done with my workout and I also soaked in a warm bath afterwards. I did B&G ab work and a 6 mile run. 2 miles of straight running,2 miles of speed and 2 miles of hills.I had a good sweatfest! Hoping to feel alot better in the morning!

Hello Ladies!

I was slow starting this morning. Called in to work sick and ended up coming in anyway- late. I am here still trying to figure out why?!? I was just tired this morning. I did not get my wieght workout in. I plan to do my cardio this evening. I may get the weights in too. We will see, just not feeling it. Tomorrow is my weigh in and I see no difference when doing sneak peek- same as last Tuesday. I am PMSing- I think that is why I am in such a crappy mood. When I came into work late I just stood in my supervisors office doorway with a scowl on my face. LOL!!!

Lori- Good workout!! Hope you feel better. I will go check out those pics after I finish.

Amelia- Good job on going back to school!! The time will fly by and you will feel so rewarded and accomplished in the end. Congrats on the 4lbs off!!!

Belinda- Am I seeing things, I thought you and DH decided not to move?? Or are the movers coming w/the rest of your stuff from the US?

Cookie- I was shocked too on some days, you think you are not eating that much but MFP will keep you in check!!

Cheryl- glad to hear things are going well for you!!

Enjoy your workout ladies!!
 
Hey, gals!!!

Belinda, I see I missed some chapters and you are now back in Germany with DH, you lucky girl, you! I'm so glad. I hope it's going well.

Lori, isn't that just like little ones - maybe he was just stressed out and once he saw you he thought it was safe to let his hair down and cry.

Amelia, I agree with your husband. In two years you're going to be so glad you did this!!! Hang in there, girl! And great news on the .4 down on your unofficial WI.

I've been hanging in there but extremely busy with the PR business, especially as we finalize plans for our new building. It's going to be great, actually. we got the formal building loan approval last Monday and we expecct to move in somewhere around Thanksgiving to Dec. 1. woo hoo!

This morning I did Step Works plus a few abs aftewards. Love that workout. yesterday was GS Back/Shoulders and Bi's.

Have a great night, everyone!!!

Cheryl
 
Hi Ladies!

Belinda, hope the moving goes well. That sure is a workout! Good thing you have been listing those heavy weights.

Amelia, I certainly agree with the other ladies. In two years, you could either be done and reaping the rewards of your education or wishing you had done it. Did you end up getting your workout in? Hope the weigh in went well.

Lori, boy do I remember those days when my sons would act like your son! A psych friend of mine told me the toddler sort of forgets that you're not there and then is shocked to realization when you return, and it creates confusion for them. Even the flu doesn't keep you down.

Cheryl, glad to hear things are well, but busy, with you. I can hear your excitement thru your posts, so I'm glad for you. Am impressed with your dedication to your workouts. Do you find that it helps with the stress? I know I certainly find it to be a great stress reliever.

Kim, how is your ankle? Should you be doing cardio already? Or are you another Lori? I missed the step and worried that I did injured mine yesterday, but thankfully it is okay.

Did Drill Max total body, and don't recall doing that premix before. Guess I never did or I really am losing it. Happy to report I've followed my food plan for the day and managed to stay on it. Tomorrow I have a conference so it will be harder, but I'll do my best. Am amazed at how much more I was eating than I should be. Think seeing the calorie count adding up gave me a jolt. Sure is hard to get the right amount of carbs, fats, and protein. Originally I kept getting my protein too high. I know you all thought it was the fats I would have high. J/K.

Trish and Iris, hope you had a great day.
