Commit to get fit and lean for Nov 18, 2009

Morning,

I am done with CCV7 on the TC;) Traveled 4.15 miles and burned 850 cal. I pushed myself today, I was thinking about Thanksgiving and all those extra cal.:p Need to work a little harder until next week. I also did 3 sets of leg presses , leg curls and leg extensions ) in the gym. Getting ready to work my abs, shower talke the dogs for a walk. Tonight I will do my core/back workout.

And no I will not be cooking for Thanksgiving! In the morning, I will go to the gym. In the afternoon I will go with DH to the Mess hall on base

Have a fantastic day. Work hard!
 
'Morning!
Heading down to do GS BSB. Didn't sleep well since I was thinking of too many things I need to do.
Belinda, wonder how many ovens they have in the base kitchen? Being inspired by your cal burns, I was thinking yesterday about getting on the treadmill when I got home from work, but then I didn't get home until way late! Good pt on upping in anticipating of next Thursday's eating.
Deb, thanks for asking. DD and I are ok, but the car may be totalled. I was pretty shaken up from it, cause the deer looked like it was coming in the windshield. A few yrs ago, a boy up the road was killed when one came thru and kicked him repeatedly. His poor family. Anyway, it totally changed my opinion on docile deer. Plus they are all over the place and seem to love to play chicken. Today's the big day! Hope delivery is on time and everything goes well. I want dbl wall ovens, but it will take a kitchen renovation.
Iris, how did things go with your mom? The traffic yesterday was crazy. Hope you didn't get stuck in it.
Amelia, hope things went well with the mtg. I always get a little anxious before pt/tchr mtgs. Do you?
Lori, you have such a busy life. What's the temp there? It is 22 F here. A guy I know wears shorts until it snows! My DD said she hopes it does soon 'cause she's tired of his hairy legs, but I still don't want snow.
Helene, do you have fav Cathe wo also? I tend to do a few over and over, just ask Iris.
Ok, better get going before I don't have time to get GS done.
Cookie
 
Good Morning Gals!!

I probably won't be around much today....not like i was around much yesterday...or that day before that...or the day before that:p We have our yearly visitor at work today and tomorrow ( I think) some head guy...for something or another so I have to make myself look busy. Not only that I am working with the grumpy refueler today:mad:

So yesterdays workout was 4DS FB and for some reason bic/tris started skipping AND had no sound when it stopped skipping. How weird is that? I was hoping it was the tv but that doesn't make any sense. I just realized how funny that sounded...i would rather the tv be broke then my dvd! LOL

I am up early to get a cc workout in before work, trying to figure out which one to do.

Belinda** Good job with your workout today! When do you celebrate Thanksgiving? Same as the US? Ours was back in Oct.

Cookie** LOL at what your DD said! haha! It isn't very warm here the past 2 days. It started snowing yesterday again but the weather was nice last weekend. I had trouble getting to sleep last night has well, not sure what it was.

O.k...I will bb later tonight!
Lori:)
 
Good Morning

im not sure what im doing today. My rotation calls for 4ds KB + legs,core.....guess i could do that:rolleyes: i will do some kind of cardio and some lifting today..just not sure what.

Belinda-Awesome workout,awesome cal burn.

Cookie-Thanksgoodness you and DD are ok, we have alot of deer around here too and i hate driving at night. I was thinking about deer last night when i went to meet my sister. I get a little antsy before teacher meetings too,even if i know what there about.

Lori-ugh,dont you just hate it when our Cathe dvd's don't work. So frustrating...my bm2 skips on the last power circuit..luckly i hardly ever make it that long,lol

Hey to Debbie,Helened, Trish and Iris..i will bbl with some personals from yesterday!
 
Good Morning Ladies.

I am supposed to do GS Chest/Tri's today, but my forearms were still really sore from GS BSB, so I was going to do Cardio...but NOW I have this pulling feeling going on deep in my chest when I breathe all the way out and when I breathe all the way in....and it hurts and I don't know what it is....:confused: Have I pulled something?? I'm nervous to even do yoga (because of the breathing). I'm wondering if I should post in OD about this too........ ok bb in a few with personals.
 
Ok I just posted in open discussion....this is going to drive me nuts.

Belinda- Awesome workout today

Amelia- Have a great workout today!! (Whichever you choose)

Deb- I hope everything goes ok with your oven! Did you get to go tothe gym last night??

Cookie- omg what happened with this deer?? You are so lucky you aren't hurt (which I'm assuming you're not). So what rotation are you doing again? I'm doing Nov. 08 ...well I WAS doing it....

Lori- LOL @ your tv being broken...and nope it doesn't sound funny, I would hope the same thing!! Isn't that the workout that's over an hour and a half?? I've been wanting to do that one of these days...so how are you feeling this morning?

Things went well with mom yesterday, I suppose. We are now going every week for treatment, but this won't knock her down nearly as much as the last type of treatment (supposedly)....we will see I guess. Ok BBL
 
Hello,

Well wouldn't you know it. Swamped at work again. Truthfully, I think it's going to stay like this for a while. But I don't mind. I like it better that way. I feel more productive. At least this week, I'm still getting enough workouts in.

Belinda: Your schedule sounds great. Another go at the TC I see. I am going to the gym for the first time to workout tonight instead of the usual which is going so the kids can go in the pool. I will be looking for one of those. I think I will have to get myself some CC workouts.

Amelia: About the other day, the Amy bento that I did was "In the ring". I like that the core work was all standing and done with an 8lb weight. I previewed it first with netflix I think. Sucks that your BM2 skips. If it's a copy you got from cathe, you can get it replaced for free (they have a lifetime garantee). I just exchanged my butts and guts which was skipping at the end as well.

Lori: LOL at the head guy visiting. Hope you don't have to wear a suit too :p I was laughing at what cookie said as well. We have a guy here from Labrador and he wears short sleeves all winter long. Me, I am constantly thinking of Florida during the winter. Sorry your DVD skipped. Hope it's not the disc. If it is maybe you can get a new one (lifetime guarantee on Cathe DVDs I was told, Love these guys!).

Cookie: There are a lot of deer around here. So glad to hear that you are OK. I would have been freaked about it for a while as well. So scary about the boy hitting the deer and then getting kicked by it as well. That's horrible! I always see them on the side of the highway and I don't like it. And I did get stuck in that insane traffic last night. Was 10 minutes late picking up the kids. Yeah I do have my faves as well. I love BM2 scrambled eggs (thanks Iris for posting that one), Imax Extreme, MIC, 4DS KB and BC double cardio and RS among others. I am also loving the Meso 2 leg workouts! If I'm really up for punishment, I do the Cardio Fusion Mix and Max. Have you ever tried that one? Enjoy your new oven!

Iris: How is your mom? What is the difference in the treatments? Your muscles sound like it's soreness from your chest muscles. I hope it goes away. I had something similar last year but then it got worse. Turns out I sprained a rib in my back. I would feel the pain all along the rib where the nerve runs I guess. Have you seen the guy lately :p? Always a good read when you post about it. Do you think maybe some of us would have liked to do that to some guys in our past :p?

Deb: In the ring is nice if you want lower intensity. I usually have a harder time getting into her workouts because of the choreagraphy but this one I find easier. Enjoy your double oven. If you and Cookie have a cook off, can we be the tasters :D? Sorry you didn't get your workout in last night.

OK, about that work, I have to get back to it. :p Hoping to go to the gym tonight (already talked to DH about it) because I didn't do anything this morning. Yesterday was good. I did Jillian's BFBM and STS disc 16 in the evening while everybody was asleep.

Have a great day!
 
Hallo ladies,

Cookie, I am so glad you and your DD are didn’t get hurt! How scary! (((HUGS))) I am like that too, when I can’t sleep, or if I am thinking too much or have to much going on in my life. The only thing that really helps me is my workouts. I know they have a lot of ovens to serve 32 thousand solders. They really got fantastic food. Love going to the mess hall for Brunch on Sunday’s and Thanksgiving. Hope your delivery comes on time. Enjoy GS legs.

Lori, hate when the DVD skips, very frustrating.

Iris, I posted in the wrong forum before. Don’t let it border you. It happens. I you have chest pain, don’t work out. Take it easy, ok!

Helene, hope you like the TC, don’t be afraid to use resistance. Makes it a much more intense workout. Have fun!

Miss Amelia! Your workouts are rocking too! Have a great workout with whatever you decide to do.

I will be back tomorrow!
 
Hi girls,

I went to the gym early and did a total body class. I decided to freeze my membership for 30 days. I may do Charlean Xtreme for 30 days:confused:

OK, so I didn't pass Measuring 101. My damn oven doesn't fit:mad: It's in my garage. It's off by a 1/2 in. the guy says this happens all the time:confused: Waiting to hear when they are coming back to saw some of the cabinet off:eek: I called DH and told him and he says this happens all the time to you . . . like I need to be reminded (it just happened a few months with my refrig):eek:

Belinda - Your calorie burn keeps on getting better and better:) Thanksgiving seems to be a big gym day around here too . . . didn't even think they would be open.

Cookie - The same thing happened around here a Mom and her child were killed when the deer came thru the windshield:(:( Actually I'm not crazy about double ovens at least mine are too small and narrow. I would rather have 1 full size oven but didn't want to do any renovation.

Lori - It's always stressful when there's a big visit at work. Did you also have to dash & stash?

Amelia - Did you have fun with your niece yesterday? Have fun with your workout.

Iris - It does sound like you pulled a muscle. Will you Mom still be getting treatments during Christmas?

Helene - Good job on getting your workouts in. Are you doing Zumba tonight at the gym?

Have a great day everyone:)
 
Hi Girls!

Work wasn't has bad has I thought today. I didn't have to work with the grumpy refueler...just the "not so bright one" The other day our fax machine broke so I had to plug in the old one and the paper is really thin that comes out of that one. Everyday we get a sheet from another company at the airport telling us what big planes are coming in. So when he picks up the paper to read it he says "man,they are getting cheap sending over paper like this" Well...I thought i was gonna die!

So long story short, DH has started up a new hockey league in town and b/c of it he was on a radio station yesterday morning. Then he had to be on another one today...of course he didn't tell me b/c it feels like I haven't seen him in forever. I had to go back into our room b/c I couldn't find my socks, I take a peak in at DS and he is starting to move. So I tell DH that DS is sturing. DH THEN informs me that he has to get a shower b/c he has to be at another radio station in 30 mins! My blood was boling! Of course I have been pmsing all week but he could have told me this earlier, I would have either slept in or woke up earlier. He knew I was ticked but I got on the TM anyway and figured he would call me when he needed me to get off. While Im running Im trying to figure out how I am going to get ready for work, tidy the house, get DS ready, feed him and still get to work on time. When I get off the TM, he has the beds made, DS fed and dressed and house cleaned. I think he knew he was steping on thin ice! LOL Poor guy...he tries!

So my workout ended up being 45 mins and 5 miles long. I am hoping to do some kind of circuit workout tomorrow morning. Maybe start around 7'ish.

Ameila** what workout did you decide to do? Ah...one of these days you will make it to the bitter end of BM2 and you will be cursing on that dvd!

Helene** I would rather be busy then bored, time goes by so much faster. So you have a guy from Labrador? Im from Newfoundland. Really we are called Newfoundland and Labrador but its two seperate places. Hope you get your workout in!

Iris** I feel fine...no DOMS from 4DS...a little disappointing actually. Hope your mom feels good after those treatments. How many more treatments does she need to have?

Deb** Oh dear...are you going to saw 1/2" off of your cupboard??:eek: Thats something like I would do! hehe!

Alright...thats it for me. See you all tomorrow! Over and out!

Lori:)
 
Back again!
Belinda, I sure am glad I don't have to clean the ovens on your base. Wow, that's a lot of service personnel. I love brunch - my favorite meal. I also love the stress reduction from working out.
Lori, lol at the paper comment. So, did you have to dress up for this visit? Glad your dh is such a sweetie.
Amelia, did things go ok with the mtg? So what did you do today? I like BM2, just not how long it is! Good music tho. Is your dh liking his job?
Iris, sounds like you may have pulled a muscle. Please take it easy. Oh, don't mention it to your friend until you want a massage. Glad your mom's ok. I'm doing the 11/09 rotation.
Deb, there's a cartoon strip called Zits in our local paper, and I thought of you with today's. The mom: How as school guys? Son and friend: Great. No arrests or convictions. Mom thinks: You know your kid's a teenager when you judge the quality of your day by the disasters that don't occur. Tonight a very close friend called and asked how the kids were, and my dh replied, well you know as Cookie would say, they're still alive. We had to cut our cabinets for the refrigerator and then again for the range. It's not you, it's the appliance companies that keep changing the size. Think they are in cohoots with the cabinet people.
Helene, sorry you're so busy. Usually I prefer to be busy, but just not as busy as I seem to be. We have many of the same Cathe favs. They're good stress relievers. I have In the Ring, but it doesn't seem to get my hr up very much. Should try it again.
Did GS BSB today. Thinking might do plyo legs tomorrow instead of Imax 2! Have a big mtg first thing in the morning, and that would certainly destress me for it.
