Good morning,

Today I will do a full body workout:eek: Not sure what yet?

I will be back for personals and to report my workout!

Happy Hump day!
 
Hallo,

I am done with 4DS BC/KB " total body weights" 97 min.:p I loved it! Didn't burn a lot! There has to be something wrong with my HR? I only burned 346 cal in 97 min.:eek: Mybe it's set for cardio? Kept the weights light, I used a 45 lb BB (squats), 25 lb BB for bic, 15's for tric sh + bic, 10's and 8's.

This is it for me today, except I still have to do my core/back workouts.Will do that later:p Will walk the dogs, once it stops raining,

Off to the shower! BBL!
 
Good Morning!

I was the last one to check in last night so not a whole lot to say. I don't know what I had a dream about so I can't talk about that:p

DD came into the room in the wee hours to tell me she wasn't feeling well. I was thinking it was almost time to get ready for school and I said "o.k, go back to bed then" She said, "I can't get to sleep, do we have anything here" It was only 4 o'clock! LOL Poor girl came in cause she needed me and I was shooing her back to bed! Got up and got her something and I went right back to sleep. She as a sore throat....no fever though....thats what I am watching out for. They are doing vaccinations in school this week and if she is sick, she can't have her's. Hoping she will be better by then.

Belinda** Good job with the workout. I wouldn't be suprised if that calorie burn isn't right. I remember doing HST after I had DS and the stupid thing said I only burned over 200 cals. I think I went for a walk after to make it 300!:mad:

I ordered a dress online for a wedding I have this weekend, I will find the link and post it. It should be here today. I hope its ok. The dress wasn't expensive but I paid for fast shipping...knowing me, I probably won't even wear it!

I will bbl to report. I think i am going to run outside.

Lori:)
 
Morning,

Belinda: ^5 on the workout. That sounds like a good one! Those are some good weights already. I remember the weights you were posting during Meso 2. You are strong!!!!

Amelia: Nice workout yesterday. What's the combo today from 4DS? Guess what I have for lunch today? Yep, pulled chicken :eek: So glad you posted that reciepe. It makes my life so much easier and it's yummy to boot. And I thought I was getting bored with chicken!

Lori: LOL about DS, I think. Though that was probably not so great to see him get hurt like that. By the way, you should see my house. I have bubble wrap around the kitchen counter corners and other places. My mom said it looked awful, and two minutes later, DS came tearing round the corner and bumped his head. It didn't hurt him too bad because of the bubble wrap. She thought it was great after that. :eek: Nice workout yesterday. I am thinking of doing MIC again this week. It was such a sweat fest last time! Uh oh, can't talk about your dream he? Was it about Belinda's PT guy? :p

Cookie: That is the longest roof repair I have ever heard of. That must not be fun indeed. I hope you can get your workouts in. They seem to really help with the stress. Make sure they don't forget the insulation and put good one in, winter is just around the corner ;)

Iris: So what is your schedule like on Sundays? Would you like to meet for Yoga sometime in Saratoga? I really need to go. So you bartend in Saratoga..... oh the stories you must have to tell! :D How is your mom doing? Did she enjoy your pics of Daytona?

Deb: How was kickboxing? I hope you enjoyed it. It sounds like you go to the gym a lot for your workouts. I keep wanting to go but can't seem to organize my schedule for it.

Workout queen: I hope you join us. I used to lurk and finally joined and soooo glad I did. It is fun and motivating. I also have the same amount of weight to lose. I am starting with a mini challenge like Amelia (she a great inspiration) has been doing because it is such a great idea. I can focus on loosing 5 lbs first. I have a polar HR monitor and it works great. It's great also to have made new friends with the same workout interests. Like you and Belinda, I don't know any body else interested in these things like me.

Hi to Trish and anyone else I might have forgotten.

OK, yesterday was a rest day. Nothing special to report. I'm off to the basement before it's too late. I'm going for Step Blast and tonight I have STS disc 13 again (chest, shoulder, tris).

Enjoy your day!
 
Morning girls,

my rotation calls for yoga & stretch. I wish Cathe had a yoga dvd. Im doing 30mins of Tony Hortons yoga(p90x) then stretchmax (the one w/bands)

Helened, i think were going to have that pulled chicken next week, i miss it. Im glad you like it! Have fun with SB and STS tonight!

Lori-Have a great run outside today...i would love to see the dress! Sending healing vibes to your DD.

Belinda-Sometimes when im working out i will notice my HRM kinda stall at one # when i know it should be alot higher than that. Iwill adjust the chest strap and it usually starts working agian. Great workout today girl,enjoy your dog walk!
 
Good Morning Ladies

Today is GS Chest/Tri's...and I'm gonna try and get in a run tonight. I know I wont' have time for both this morning. So now I'm getting hardcore about trying to cook meals for myself, and eat cleaner. Unfortunately I'm still kinda lost in the supermarket! So I'm starting slow....grilled chicken ( I have a george foreman), whole wheat pasta, organic pasta sauce, etc. Just trying to make small changes! I've been so motivated since I got back from Daytona to really get it together and train hard and eat as best I can.

Belinda- Nice workout!! I've been dying to do that premix!

Lori- Ohhh I can't wait to see your dress!.....are you a deal finder like me?? The tux dress I wore saturday night in Daytona was only $9!! Do you shop bodycentral or venus.com or any of those stores?? I find awesome awesome deals there sometimes.

Amelia- Have fun with yoga today!! I love stretchmax 3! And nice cal burn yesterday!

Cookie- Hey how's your DD?? Is she in the same school district as you? Are you doing the Nov. rotation? I'm doing the '08...might do the '09 next month! And nevermind about what parts of the costume I lost.....:eek: lol So my "friend" didnt' even show up on monday night....I was surprised, very relieved, and mildly disappointed all at the same time!

Helene- I have Sunday's off....:) I would love to go one of these weekends! And I bartend in Albany ( I wish in Saratoga..lol) Have a great workout(s) today!!

So mom is doing well for the most part ( but it's because she's not doing chemo right now while she gets other treatment)...that will probably resume in a couple of weeks. In the meantime, there's been a lot of christmas shopping getting done, which she enjoys!!

BBL...I know I"m gonna be shaking after this w/o. I"m gonna wear my HR monitor too, even though I usually don't for weights...but I'm curious.

 
Good Morning early birds,

Today I'm going to the gym to spin:). The mamo went well they have to take extra pictures because I have simple cysts due to hormones. The Dr. said periodically I should have a sonogram done to make sure they are simple. I'm not sure why we can't skip mamo's and do a sonogram instread:confused: much easier. In my next life I'm coming back as a man or dog:D

Belinda - That calorie count doesn't seem right. The weights you are lifting don't sound too light to me:eek:

Lori - So did you have DS wear his halloween mask to the babysitters to disguise the bruises:D He'll probably be great at sports when he's older.

Helene - Looks like your getting in your workouts this week:) Have fun with step blast.

Amelia - I wish Cathe had a yoga DVD too! I'll have to look for the pulled chicken receipe Helene is talking about.

Iris - Kudos on eating clean:) Your Mom is smart to do Christmas shopping when she's feeling better this way she can enjoy the holidays when the get here.

Cookie - I hate having workers around the house it so difficult to workout, cook & eat. I had a mamo/sonogram a few months ago only on one side because they had found a cyst now there on both sides so I guess I'm even:rolleyes:

Hi Trish & welcome workout queen.

Have a great day everyone:)
 
Hey Girls!

I am at work and beleive it or not...I have work to do today;) I am going to run to the store at lunch time and pick up some stuff I need to make supper. I think we will have homemade pizza tonight.

My dress is on the vechile for delivery! Yippeee! Stay tuned...it may end up being a hit OR just hanging in the closet :confused: Prehaps I will try sending it back if its no good.

My run ended up being 11.5 kms and I burned 691 cals. On the way to work I was famished though so I had two chocolate covered jube jubes and then when I got here I had a bagel with butter:eek: There goes my workout! hehe! I think I was so hungry b/c I worked out late last night and early again today. Gonna try and hit the sack early tonight.

Helene** Nope..no dirty dreams, you bad girl!;) I don't know if I had any dreams last night. Hope you get both workouts in today and those boys are rough! When I dropped him off at the sitters, he started playing with the other kids and I think one of the little girls took something from him. He just kinda backed off...if he were home...and that were me...he would have knocked me upside the head. He needs to be a little more aggresive when it comes to kids but not as aggresive as he is with us.He kinda lets them walk over him and doesn't pick up for himself, which I find odd.

Iris** I lightened up my weight a little this week and I have been pretty sore. I have been focusing on lifting heavy for a while and b/c of this I don't think I was getting full range of the movements. So I lightened up a little and I tell ya, Ive been getting in there good. With that being said, I don't have much DOMS from yesterdays workout...yet!

Deb** No mask:p I told her what he did. I was afraid that he did something to his eye b/c he kept rubbing it but I think he is fine. He as a little scratch in under his eye and its a little purple. Then he as a purple shoulder to go along with it. She knows how crazy he is b/c I think he as taken 10 yrs off of her life already.

Ameila** Enjoy your workout today! Yoga sounds good right about now, I need to do some stretching.

BBL!
Lori:)
 
Heres the dress:

Lori: Well, that's quite the dress. I hope you do wear it for the wedding, it looks smoking!!!! DS used to be shy at daycare and was around little ones a lot. Then he started this summer with kids his age or a year older. He has become more sure of himself. He is 5 now so it's a bit different. Nice workout! It seems you don't have to worry about your bagel this morning. Your metabolism is likely through the roof!

Iris: OK, I should really start yoga again. It would be fun to meet you as well! How familiar are you with poses? And WTG on getting started eating clean and all that. Amazing what is in the food we eat if we don't pay attention.

Deb: Sorry to read about the cysts. But I don't think you'd want to be a man either. Prostate cancer. You know how they check for that right :eek:? Hopefully everything comes out good. Happy spinning! This is the pulled chicken: http://www.thecathenation.com/forum/showthread.php?t=264645&highlight=pulled+chicken
I skip the brown sugar, but you can make it your own taste.

Amelia: Enjoy yoga. It's so nice to stretch.

Did Step Blast this morning. I selected it cause I thought it would be easier. But I was dragging this morning and it kicked my butt (maybe I should have done 1 riser instead of 2). Anyways, 524 cals later I am happy to have gotten it done. I already told DH I have to work out tonight so we have to have the kids in bed by 8pm. Hope I can stick to the plan. I'd like to stick to the STS schedule a little bit better but still get my cardio in to burn some cals.

OK back to work.....
 
Hallo,

Cookie, hope you get your workout in today. You have a lot on your plate (((HUGS))) How is your daughter doing today?

Lori, sorry to hear about your DD. Did you get your workout in last night with DS? LOL! My cal burn does sound a little low for 97 min. Nice run today, girl! Your cal burn seems low too, LOL! BTW, the dress is very nice!

Helene, have fun with SB and D13 today.

Amelia, I did had a great workout today. I don’t think that cal burn is correct! Not for 97 min. I did all 4DS weights. Have fun with your stretching today. Nice cal burn yesterday.

Iris, have fun with GS Chest/Tric plus run today. You should give that premix a try.

Debbie, enjoy your spin class today. You are right, that cal doesn’t sound right. Let us know how the sonogram went.

Getting ready to do my back/core workout!

Hi to everyone that follows!
 
Hey, i just finished my yoga and stretching. I feel better...i get so antsy when i do those kinda of workouts:rolleyes:its hard for me to sit still that long,LOL.

Icouldn't find that p90x yoga so i went on youtube and found a 42min namaste one..it was fun and relaxing. then did some stretchmax3.

Lori-That is one hot dress girlfriend...love it! reallly like the little ruffle at the end. I hope you get it quickly!

Helend, i think i will skip the brown sugar next time too.

Hey to Debbie,Iris,Cookie,Belinda and Trish.

ive got to get some lunch in my growling tummy! have a good day girls!
 
Oh dear...t'is gonna be a long day! I have been starving all day! My lunch hasn't even done the trick:mad: I hate it when I feel hungry all the time. I just finished a garden salad with some ham...still hungry so I had some crackers.

Helene** Good job getting that workout in. I wasn't to thrilled when I was running earlier. I didn't have the energy I normally have and I couldn't wait for it to be over! Its kinda hard to get moving once the kids are tucked away, isn't it? I love vegging when he is in bed so I hate having to put workout clothes on again.

Belinda** I was here last night and reported yesterdays workout. Got it all accomplished.

Ameila** I hear ya on the yoga! LOL Its hard for me to sit still as well.

BBL!
Lori
