Commit to get Fit and Lean in December

'Morning!
Belinda, looking forward to seeing a photo of the ring! Guess we're all living vicariously. Please get that pf checked out.
Amelia, you're much better than me. I would have skipped right to the nutrition and food chapter. Last time I had ab doms, my dh said it couldn't be - I must have had a stomach virus. That from the man who can get aerobic trying to do a situp!
Kristin, you scored well on the dvds. I haven't tried the step ones but love FlexTrain.
Melissa, totally understand your thinking re BFF. You should never settle.
Deb, lol at you and the drifter! Loved it!
Slept 12 hours last night and finally am feeling a bit better. Tried to do yoga yesterday but hard to do downward facing dog when my nose was dripping like a faucet again. May try to do a tb wt workout later.

Hey everyone. I just finished Push/Pull and also walked Baxter for 40 minutes this am. I am thinking about taking the boys to Sweet Frog's for some frozen yogurt. I was going to take them to the movies to see that Walking with Dinosaurs, but it got a lot of bad reviews. I'll save my money. I want to see the DiCaprio film.

Deb- LOL, LOL, LOL at the drifter. Too funny. Lewis Black, the comedian says that when you are dealing with crazy, you just need to act crazier. I guess it is true, hahahaha.

Belinda- ugh on the PF coming back. I hope it doesn't last long this time around. It must be so frustrating. . . When will DS propose?

Cookie- I was on the fence with FlexTrain, but everyone gave it good reviews and with the 20% off and free shipping, I could not resist. I do see a move in the video clip that I hate though. . . the one arm kickbacks in a plank. Ugh! I always feel like I am about to collapse on my face when I do that move.

Okay, off to shower and get some frozen yogurt.

Kristin
 
Back with personals: I also walked the dogs.

Kirstin - I like how you think:eek: Good job on the walk and PP today. I hope PF isn't coming back! The last week I been on my feet a lot with helping the kids move. I think DS will propose on Dec 31 or New Year:eek:

Cookie - as soon as the holiday's are over I will make an appointment to get an MRI done. I have the referral here, just never got around to it. Glad you got some sleep. I can't do downward facing dog when I have sinus problems, please be careful! And feel better soon.

Debbie - that's funny at you and the drifter, lol!

Hi Melissa and Amelia!

I will be back in the morning. Good night!
 
Hi,

I did a bunch of walking lunges today. I'm still catching up with computer work & home stuff so will slip in mini workouts this week. DS & GF went to Connecticut to visit her Dad & go skiing so we have the house to ourselves & TV!! DS finished leftover lasagna the day after Christmas so more food too:)

Belinda - I have a few Dr. appts to make after the holidays too. I'm wondering if everyone puts it off & the offices will be crowded. Great job with STS today.

Kristin - I want to see that movie too, great reviews. It's nice that your workouts will arrive when your still on vacation.

Cookie - It's hard to do cardio or yoga when your sick. Feel better.

Waves hi to Amelia & Melissa

Goodnight:)
 
Good morning,

Today I will do P90X3 Total Synergistics. Doesn't look like I will take a walk today, it's raining:confused:

Debbie - how are your legs feeling today after all those lunges? LOL, about your son:eek: my son loves lasagna. I will call next week and make a appointment for the MRI. Hopefully I don't have to wait to long……I always can go to Walter Reeds too.

Waving Hi to the rest of the gang!! Have a wonderful weekend.

I will be back after my workout.
 
I am back:

Day 1 of P90X3 Total Synergistics is done! DH worked out with me, we both liked it.

Have a great day, everyone!
 
Hi everyone. I just finished Step Blast and added the abs and planks from SJP. I also walked Baxter this morning because the rain was coming and I wanted to tire him out a bit. I am making homemade meatballs today for dinner (spaghetti). I also need to work on my teacher class PowerPoint presentation and there is a ton of laundry that needs to get done :mad:.

Even though my eating this season has been filled with cookies and candy, I think working out six days a week and doing workouts I have not done in a few months (Step Blast, IMAX 3, LM, Push and Pull, etc.) helped me actually lose a bit this week. Not sure. I don't want to go on the scale until after New Year's but I do feel a difference if that is possible.

My new dvds are supposed to come tomorrow. Not sure which one I will do first. I'm excited for all of them, lol.

Deb- I still have cookies calling my name in this house. I ate all the chocolate ones. The only ones left are the vanilla sugar cookies. Plus, there is still all this candy around. . . Nice to have the television to yourself. DH always says we should get the boys cable, but I am totally against it. I'd rather have to sit through Nick all the time instead of them watching God knows what in their room for all hours. As it is, DS has his video games in his room and he is in there a LOT.

Belinda- I didn't even know they made a p90X3. I don't have any of the series. My friend loves Insanity, but I don't know.. . I was on the fence with T25, but I am passing on that too, for now.

Cookie- I hope you are feeling better today and taking it easy.

Waving hello to Melissa and Amelia!

Kristin
 
hey girls,

Just finished Xtreme slimdown upper body circuit. I was kinda on the fence about what workout to do. I really want to go hiking but its in the 30's outside...um, naaaah I don't want to have the sniffles.

Kristin-You are on fire with your workouts! ^5's!! Oh, I want to see the DiCaprio movie too. We are suppose to go see Catching Fire soon. If its still in theater's

Belinda- You too, awesome job on your workouts. How are you doing with your health? Any issues? You've had a tough year..hope 2014 is a better one for you health wise.:)

Hello to Debbie, Cookie & Melissa. I've got to jump in the shower and finish laundry before DH gets home. We're suppose to go get some groceries since there little more than milk in the fridge :confused:
 
Hi,

I didn't get a workout in today, lots of computer work to do & food shopping. I did feel DOMS in my butt from the walking lunges.

Belinda - I was thinking about P90X3, I thought it was strength need to search for some clips on it. Do you like it?

Kristin - It's a good thing you were able to get out before the rain of course I was food shopping in it:confused: I need to make cookies for New Year's to bring to my in-laws so it's not over yet for me:eek:

Amelia - When it's 30 degrees out don't feel like doing much of anything, surprised it is so cold by you.

Waves hi to Melissa & Cookie

Goodnight:)
 
Good morning,

Today I will do STS D7 and P90X3 Day 2 AgilityX.

Debbie - my husband and I both like P90X3. They still offer free shipping until tomorrow. I like the 30 min workouts.

Thanks Amelia! I hope 2014 is a better one. My PF is acting up again, not sure why? I am not doing any high impact workouts:mad: I am still coughing:eek: they told me it can take up over 3 month.

Kirstin - yes, they did! P90X3 just came up last week. I have Insanity, but it's to high impact. Your dinner sounds yummy.

Hi Cookie and Melissa.

I will be back to report my workout.

Good morning! This weekend was busy so I didn't get a chance to checkin, but I did workout. Yesterday I went a little overboard and did a 2 hr workout :eek: Once I got started, I couldn't stop lol. This morning I did To the Max no HIIT premix and All Out Low Impact HIIT floor & step timesaver premix. I've come to the conclusion that I'm not a morning exerciser anymore; I do way better later in the day. My mom and I are having a girls' day, filled with errands and going to the Christmas Barn to see what we can get on sale ;)

I have to make a dessert for my friend's NYE party tomorrow night. I don't even want to look at sugar/chocolate. Maybe I'm on to something ;)

Kristin, that is awesome that you were able to lose despite all the goodies laying around. You rock!!! I, on the other hand, feel like a bloated mess. Have fun with your DVDs!

Deb, nice job on the DOMS!! You're inspiring me to throw walking lunges into my routine.

Amelia, how cold does it get by you? I didn't even know it got as low as the 30s! Nice job on your workouts!!

Belinda, I told my brother about P90X3 and he is so excited. Are all the workouts 30 min? If so I might have to ask for that for my bday (as if I need any more fitness DVDs!). I'm sorry to hear your PF is acting up again :(

Waving hello to Cookie!!!

Have a great day ladies!
 
Hey girls,

STS D7 (CSB) and Total Body Stretch is done.

Melissa - wow, on your workout yesterday:D Have fun shopping today. That's why I like P90X3, they are all around 30 min:D Is your brother getting P90X3?

Waving Hi to everyone that checks in after me. Getting ready for my second workout. Still have to walk my dogs too.
 
Hi again,

I just finished P90X3 Day 2 AgilityX (cardio):D Loved it! So far, I like this series.

Have a great day, everyone.
 
Hello everyone. I got my new workouts today :eek::D. I was such a child checking the door every five minutes. I did X10 today, the low impact fat burning circuit premix. It was tough. I had to do the tap push ups on my knees. The last part with the bicep curl and simultaneous shoulder press were killers. I did the last eight with only bicep curls, lol. I cannot wait to try the others.

Today I took my younger DS to my friend's house. She is a first grade teacher in his school. He is in kindergarten and struggling with the common core math, as am I, but on a different level. He is taking multiple choice tests in math. . . and again. . . he is in kindergarten. She helped me a lot. I have been working with him over the break and he seems to be getting better. I don't know. I just don't want him to struggle and I will help him in any way I can. It just sucks to see him taking these kinds of tests in kindergarten. I am doing the best I can and so is he. . . that is all we can ask for, right?

Tomorrow we are having friends over. We are making pulled bbq chicken sandwiches in the crockpot and I am making the rolls from scratch. I hope it comes out good. Not sure if I will make a dessert or not.

Belinda- glad you are loving P90X3. Is it low impact or is it more weights and circuit style? I see you are mixing it with STS. I was thinking of going heavy with the weights, but I am thinking total body workouts for January and then moving on to heavier weights rotation.

Melissa- I find the ideal time for me to workout is mid-afternoon as well. Why does work have to get in the way of that? Lol. I hope you had a great girls' day with your mom. Your workouts are rockin'!

Deb- I'm iffy on making a dessert. What's one more at this point though, lol.

Amelia- I'd pass on hiking in the cold as well. You know what movie I want to see. . . don't laugh. . . Grudge Match with Sylvester Stallone and Robert DeNiro. I am a huge Rocky fan and even went to the theatre to see the last Rocky movie. It looks like a good fighter movie. . . but it got awful reviews. I'd probably still like it though.

Cookie- I hope you are feeling better!

BB tomorrow, probably in the afternoon.

Hi,

Today I put out a ton of Evening bags, customers buy them up in NYC because of all the parties. The only bad thing is they downsized the space for them & they are bookends on the side of the register so everyone dumps all the stuff they don't want on top of the bags:rolleyes:

I need to take care of some quick stores tomorrow & it's my turn with one of my SIL to cook the fish for New Year's. Ugh, thought I could fit in a workout:confused:

Belinda - I caved and bought P90X3, Christmas money was burning a hole in my pocket;) I like that you combined it with STS.

Kristin - It must be so much fun that your workouts came in! Sorry DS has to take those tests at such a young age:( DH wants to see Grudge Match too! Your dinner for tomorrow sounds yummy:)

Melissa - Awesome job on your workouts! My legs are still hurting from the walking lunges. It sounds like a fun day with your Mom. Will you stay with your Mom during your winter break?

Waves hi to Amelia & Cookie

Goodnight:)
 
Hey girls,

new year 2014.jpg

Any party animals present tonight? I for one, am no longer a party animal. I won't be up at 12 to sing to my old man :p Any special plans for any body?

So I have some exciting news. A fellow Cathelete is sending me a copy of P90X this week. :eek: I can't wait to do something different. Lord knows I love Cathe but I'm burned out on the dvd's I have. :eek:

I've also been toying with the idea of joining WWer's agian. IDK, I've joined it twice and quit since first joining it back 2006 with the original group we had here. sigh...decisions decisions....:rolleyes: Anybody here wanna join with me? (although I don't think anyone wants to lose weight? :eek:)

Can you guys tell I've had two cups of coffee? :eek: bbl to report my workout. Im off today and tomorrow and oh...ive got some gossip from work to. I will call it ' Deli Drama' :p;)
 
Good morning,

Today's plan is: P90X3 yoga and maybe STS D8?

Debbie - lol, good for you! You also got the free shipping right? Did you order through Mary? Can't wait what you think?

Kirstin - yeah, on the new dvds! Let us know how you like them. P90X3 has a nice variety of workouts. Go to Beachbody.com and look at the clip when you have time. On the Open Forum there are threads going around that people are disappointed:eek: DH and I like them:D

Amelia - I hear you on Cathe! I was burned out on her dvd's a while back;) We are going to our neighbors, they are having a huge party tonight:p My kids are coming tonight too.

I will be back later.
