Commit to get fit and lean for Wednesday!

Morning!
Quick check in for me since I have an evening meeting that won't end til late - 10. Don't you think others might ask me what my bedtime is before making up these times?
As a reward for just finishing up some grant work, am going to do gs c&t.
Belinda, you're still on Germany time!
Iris, any nibbles from other gyms?
Deb, pretty sure it is my leg that's bothering me, more than the therapy. It is actually quite visibly swollen. I feel like my clothes are also getting tight.
Kristin, have you read that book The Law of the Garbage Truck? It is one of those self-help books, but it might help. At least it did me a bit.
Lori, peanut butter has a smell that just grosses me out, whether pg or not. I used to work with a guy who seemed to think I was his work wife, only I told him we needed a divorce.
Amelia, good for you discussing with your boss re donut making. As much as I enjoy people, I do wonder if some people ever grow up. What are you kiddies doing this summer?
Melissa, have you reacclimated yet? Where did the d go this week? Sorry for forgetting?
Helene, I pm'd you. Hope it helps. Today would be a good day for the water park.
Trish, how's everything with you.
Okay, gotta run before I don't have time. Oh, exchange student's two brothers are arriving today for her graduation on Saturday. It will be a houseful all over again.

Good Morning Ladies

I'm thinking of doing GS Chest/Tri's myself. Or looking to do another rotation probably. Might as well!

I don't even feel like talking about work. I think in order to get myself back in the game, here, I'll get out of the industry altogether to make some money first. Trying to start all over at a new gym would defeat the purpose of getting out of the hole I'm in.

Belinda- Have a great workout today! I know you know all about having back "issues" :( I think it's some pms related, but it's normally not that far down! I mean, right into the sacrum and across the back almost into my hips. Weird.

Cookie- A meeting about what?? Til 10? That's nuts, I'd tell them to stuff it...:eek: Yes.... DC has this problem with others ....particularly family. He's the nicest, funniest guy ever, but very selfish. And no, it was another Cathlete Kristin I went with. Both are spelled the same though!

Melissa- So happy you had a good time!! The nice thing about DA not being back yet is that you have the week to get yourself back to a routine, you know? Yeah it's just not getting better with DC. :( He tried "talking" to me yesterday, and I just wouldn't have it...but that's on me. But I'm done. I hate when he acts like he cares about how NJ was....and in the next breath I hear about a family that came into sign up for the gym and I wasn't there. Well wtf, why don't I just pitch a tent at the gym. Ugh. Thanks for letting me vent! LOL

Amelia- :eek: What did I tell you about the backstabbing work b***ches! I'm glad you were honest with your boss...always do that (even though, watch out, they play "sides" too) !! BUT, I'd watch what I'd say around ANYONE else......:confused:

Lori- LOL @ being terrible about ttom! Hope your busy day is a good one!

Kristin- lmao @ being glutton's for punishment but that's awesome that they requested you guys! I don't blame you for not doing summer school, I agree, what a burnout!!!

Deb- I need to be out by June 30th....inspection and all. Bah. Not looking forward to it. How is work this time of year for you?

Have a great day ladies! Off to look at rotations! I might take a couple days off training, though. :( BBL



 
Good Morning

Im so glad im off work today..no rushing around to get my workout in:p But I will be running around the next four days:confused:

Not sure what workout im doing today? May finish up the CLX series, I may do Burn intervals then finish up tomorrow. I would love to get in a good cardio..

I was told my MIL wasn't coming today, but when I got up...she's here.:confused: Sorry for venting about this too much :eek: I feel bad for even mentioning it:( Guess its gonna take some getting use too...

Iris-You hit the nail on the head...im just going to avoid any gossip at work. Have a good workout today. All this talk about the GS series make me want to buy them again:confused:

Cookie-Have a great workout and congrats to your exchange student!! I know what its like to have a house full:confused:

Belinda- Have a great workout today girl...

I will bbl
 
Hallo girls,

I just finsihed Intensity! So much fun! I had no trouble doing this workout in the RV. It's to hot outside:confused:

Amelia - have fun with your workout today. Sorry to hear you are feeling down ((HUGS))

Iris- I hope things will work out for you ((HUGS)) have fun with your workout today.

Cookie - I didn't relized I am still on German time. Hope your meeting goes by fast.

Off to the shower. BBL!
 
 
CLX Lean Circuit 3 + abb work+ 35min run interval DONE:D I was fueled by PURE frustration this morning.;)

hello to everyone...
 
Hey ladies! Never got a WO in yesterday...I was BEAT! :eek:

Today I did 4DS HIS plus chest & back from CTX. I decided on doing Cathe's June rotation and adding some stuff to it as I go. I also need to sub in some things since I don't own all the DVDs. We'll see how it goes!

Belinda, did you decide on a rotation or are you doing your own thing? Nice job on Intensity! I love that one!!

Lori, hope you're feeling better today. LOL, the guys in that pic are my bro, his bff, and my friend's bf. My bro has the white hat on; he just finished P90X. His friend's abs are INSANE. I couldn't stop staring lol! Hope you had a great day with your mom!

Kristin, that's awesome that you decided to coach during the summer. Maybe it won't be so crazy since you have off. I'm glad your sister decided to stay close by! Bet DS is happy :) I love Michael Imperioli!!! That is so cool!

Deb, nope my friend didn't come with us. The first night I was kinda lonely in the room by myself but later I was glad I had it lol. I got to sleep when I wanted, didn't have to share a bathroom with anyone, plus we weren't really in the room that much anyway.

Cookie, how's your leg feeling? I'm slowly getting adjusted lol; part of me is still on Vegas time! DA went to Miami until Saturday w/ his friends. He is very good with keeping in touch while he's gone but I told him: you don't need to check in with me, just have fun. He says I deserve updates so what are ya gonna do, lol!

Iris, sounds like you made a good decision on what you want out of life! You go girl, you can do it!! Haha, I was thinking the same thing about it kinda being good DA is away; I can just lounge and relax for the most part and get back into the swing of things! DC does sound very stubborn. Tell him to suck it ;) Did you decide on a rotation?

Amelia, ITA with Iris: don't get involved in work gossip. Some people at my old jobs thought I was antisocial because I never divulged personal info but it's much better that way. The less people who work with you know about your personal life, the better. The simplest thing can be turned around against you. Enjoy your time off! How long is your MIL gonna be with you guys?

Hello Trish & Helene!!!
 
Quick break, and I need a mental vacation from all the chatter.
Belinda, I'm guessing you even have airconditioning in your rv! It sounds much nicer than many homes.
Iris, sorry you have to deal with such a jerk. I think that's why I workout - so I can deal with some of the jerks I have to. Any more news on db?
Helene, how are you doing? Any decisions?
Amelia, you must feel like your space has been invaded and occupied. Does your dh have siblings who can also help out? To me work is work - I try very hard to keep my personal life completely separate. It's hard to get along while not crossing the line from professionals to friends, though.
Deb, how are things with your boys? My oldest wants to move back in, but we're not crazy about that idea. Might have to relinquish for the summer. I should start doing double workouts like you do once my leg is better.
Kristin, more coaching. You must enjoy it. I used to do summer school, but now just work year around. After a while I wasn't feeling recharged enough to really have the start to the year I wanted, and that's so important. Plus, I was paying more for child care than I was earning!
Melissa, glad da is such a keeper. I should look at the June rotation.
Okay, back to the meeting.
Did get in gs c&t this morning!

Hey there everyone! Just finished AS and SB abs. Now I am baking cupcakes at 10 o'clock at night because tomorrow is DS "summer birthday" celebration at school. His birthday is in Augst, but they are celebrating it at school tomorrow being as though they will not have school then. I am beat, but these suckers need to get done. Tomorrow is my younger DS's real birthday, but daycare won't except home-baked goods, so he will be bringing in munchkins. He is getting so big.

Today my classroom was 95 freakin' degrees. I was sweating in places you don't want to know and I was extremely aggravated by the humidity and heat. Tomorrow is not supposed to be any better, so I guess I should grin and bear it. My AP went over my annual review with me today and it was fantastic. She went on and on about how lovely it is to have been here since the start of my career to see me tranform from a novice to a master teacher and how much I continue to grow and incorporate new ways to reach all students (i.e. Smartboard). It was so nice to be praised like that. I like getting feedback, especially the "glowing review" kind of feedback. It made my day a little better after that, lol.

Cookie- I've never read the book. Maybe I will get it for summer reading. Summer school would never be for me. I sweat my butt off doing pools, but I went back into the classroom eager and ready to go in September. You do need that break to get recharged. I'd rather work in fast food than teach summer school, lol.

Melissa- I bet you needed that rest yesterday, lol. Nice workout today!! Does your mom have much to go with work or is her year coming to an end soon too?

Amelia- nice workout. I also agree about avoiding getting involved in work gossip. If they are talking about everyone else, then you can bet you are not the exception, lol. How was your day with MIL?

Belinda- cannot believe you did Intensity in the RV. That must be some big RV! Sometimes if I jump too high, I bang my hands on my ceiling, but I am also 5'9, and my ceilings are a bit low, lol.

Iris- did you do GS Chest and Tri's? Last week I had DOMs for two days.

Deb- what did your husband say about Michael Imperioli?

Hello to Helene and Lori and Trish. Lori- hope you are feeling good these days.

Kristin
 
Hi,

Today I did spin in the morning TG because I didn't have anything left after work. The store I was in today was hot!! After I type this I'm going to shower and I need it:) I went with DH to my nephew's playoff game and they lost but the boys all looked overheated.

Belinda - It's amazing you can get your workouts done in the RV.

Cookie - That is a late meeting:( I didn't realize your exchange student will graduate from your HS, does she also have to get something from her HS? The boys are good but of course I always worry.

Iris - Ugh, on work wouldn't want to be there the day you tell DC your leaving, but you have to do what's best for you. You deserve it. Work is real slow this time of year.

Amelia - I hope you were able to enjoy your day off.

Melissa - I could just imagine how tired you were.

Kristin - Congratulations on the great review!!! perfect way to end the year:) Some schools in NJ have 1/2 day tomorrow because of the heat wave. DH told me it was Christopher & that he was in my DH's other favorite movie "Goodfellas" so now I know:)

Lori - I hope your morning sickness is not kicking in:(

Helene & Trish - What are you guys up to.

Goodnight:)
