Good Morning!:)

I guess its TGIF for you guys but I am back to work today, weekend day shifts! Better then weekend night shifts, i suppose:) I have those cc's receipts to keep me busy most of the weekend. I can take all that stuff and plop my butt in front of the t.v if I wish...just as long as I am doing it, he doesn't care.

I got 9 miles in again yesterday and todays workout is gonna be BC and 5 mins run. I should have time to finish the whole thing if i start soon.

Amy** How are you feeling today? Is your headache gone?

Ameila** I have to get a few solorium apts in I think to work on my tan. My arms look good, but thats about it:+

Cheryl** O.k...lets make a deal! Lets both get our eating back on track? Im the same as you, my workouts are great but my eating could use some improvement. Actually, I was gonna take this weekend to try a certain # of cals and then weigh myself on Mon morning to see what I weigh. I haven't count cals in yrs so it would be nice to know how many I actually need b/c thats what it comes down to,right?

Belinda** Did you buy anything good yesterday? Did DD like Cathes step workout?

I will be back when i get to work and get settled in. Time to get this workout started!

Lori:)
 
Morning Lori!

Sorry to have been MIA, but certainly have been thinking about you all. It has just been a zoo. Family, work, life all seemed to have gone into overdrive this past week. Plus that darn piriformis is really a pain all the way down to my toes. Not sure how I’m going to be able to do that endurance relay in September at this rate.

Let’s see: one son got engaged, another one is moving, another coming for a visit, and the daughter graduated from middle school. One more boy apparently has not heard that this was the week to make a change. Two conferences, one retirement party, an injured mother, an ill mother-in-law, and tons and tons of work. But heck, nothing really major, thank God!

Lori, 9 miles! I so envy you being able to run that. I did BC last week and forgot how tough those darm terminators are! Couldn’t do them all of them with the PS. Is your daughter done with school yet? What are her plans for the summer?

Belinda, that’s great your daughter is doing Cathe. How is she liking it? I love kickboxing, as I’ve probably said in every single post. When are you planning on moving?

Amelia, how’s the news on the internship? I’m sure you’ll do fabulous in any position. Have you noticed an increase in your self-confidence from your transformation? Just wondering. I’ve noticed that I think I’m more willing to persevere thru things as a result of overcoming the challenges. For example, from being able to advanced in Cathe’s intervals I’m not so intimidated to try a tough race.

Cheryl, are you still traveling a lot? From my name, you can tell my eating is never stellar. The other day I must have downed three cranberry-lemon cookies that were fabulous before I even thought of a fat gram. I need to come up with a disgusting mental image before I eat a cookie. “Cause there never is just one with me.

Amy, how’s your headaches? Hope you’re feeling better. From my mid 30’s to 40’s I suffered tremendously with migraines, and so I truly feel your pain. Hope you get them checked out. Mine turned out to be hormone related.

Kristine, how’s the baby?

Did manage to get in workouts for the past week with the exception of yesterday, which was a long work day and a planned rest. Today my PS is flaring bad so I’m resting it now. Hope to get in something later this afternoon before a retirement party tonight.

Take care!
 
Hey girls,yay its friday:)

Lori-Awesome job on your 9miler yesterday! Speaking of a tan,my time laying in the sun yesterday was disturbed every 5-10minutes by my three year oldx(...i 'think' i got about thirty minutes on each side in:-( this weekend i will REALY get out there and lay in the the sun}( my DH can handle the kids,LOL}(

Hey Cookie,its nice to see you back:)! OMG, DID I notice an increase in my self-confidence after the interview....i was SO proud of myself for just getting out there and finding this intership myself:) And maybe one day it will be a job:7 Wow,you've been busy!!! Congrats to your son that got engaged and to your daughter that graduated middle school!! Im also sorry your PS is flaring,i wish there was something your doctor could give you to help?

Belinda-Sooooooooo,how did your DD like the workout yesterday?

Hey to Amy,Cheryl,Kristine:)

Everybody ejoy there friday,yay~!

OMGosh i almost forgot to tell you guys...ive decided to put the school thing on hold for a while,maybe a year or two because the only reason i enrolled was because i wasn't getting any job offers through sending out my resumes....but now that ive got a great opportunity with the pediatricians office...why break my neck going to school right now?

oh,and my workout today will be a thirty minute doggie walkie(cheryl is thinking im walking like a crab right now;-):p LOL ) and a circuit,like a HSC or HST or the other one:+

HI Girls:)

Got my workout in. I did 4 miles and BC UB&LB..then ME abs. I was glad I squeezed it all in:) Sometimes I over estimate how much time I actually have and I never get my workout finished...but I did it all:)

Cookie** wow you are a busy gal...and are all those children yours? Either way, thats alot of kiddos;) Did they give you many grey hairs? I keep telling DD that she is going to make me look old! LOL The sad part is,she will! I think she is gonna stress me out! LOL I was kind of hoping that she would baby sit for me this summer but Im thinking that she isn't ready yet. It would have been a great opportunity for her to make some money but on a daily basis,she really isn't showing that she is ready. She can probably watch him when I work night shifts,get off in the morning and need to sleep for a couple of hours. But I think on my day shifts I will have to get my neice to baby sit him. DD was watching him yesterday for a little while and all I heard was the word "no" Whatever he did, she said no! And that put him in a bad mood! Ugh!

Ameila** Suntanning with kids around isn't much fun! I can remember doing that. Actually, DD was really good when she was younger. I can remember taking mini cat naps when she was smaller and she would just sit there, watching her t.v show. She was a good baby...not sure what happened to her! LOL No,she really isn't that bad but I think she needs to be taken down a couple of knotches. Sometimes she talks to me like I am her sister..not cool!
I vote that you go to work! hehe! Like ME! Its always nice to make money instead of spending it. Who will watch the kids? Your MIL?

Belinda** Sounds like you have a good workout planned for the day. I am feeling a little lazy myself, Im wondering if a cup of java isn't in my future!

Lori:)
 
Hi girls,

I am back with personals!

Lori** Oh! Did I buy a lot! LOL! I bought 5 bras at VS! At Target I bought a comforter for my bedroom! Two days ago I bought a dress from Isaac Mizrahi for $ 9! Very cute dress! I make a deal with you and
Cheryl on eating clean! I am eating like crap lately! Yes, Alesia liked Cathe’s Basic step! She is doing Total Body Sculpting right now! She really having fun with the beginner rotation! Great job on your 9 miler yesterday!

Cookie** Congratulations on your DS engagement! WOW! You got a lot going on! We missed you!

Amelia** yes, my DS enjoys the beginner rotation! I am so glad she is sticking with it!

Amy** I hope you are feeling better today!

Kristine** what are your plans for today?

BB after my workout!

Hi, everyone! Warp Day 12 for me here - deadlifts and more deadlifts - but a very good day. Made it thorugh all 6 spinning bike intervals this time.

Cookie - perhaps you should change your screen name so you don't visualize yourself in that way? Just a thought. and I sure hear ya on the temptation. Yes, cookies are the best. So glad to have you back.

Lori, Okay, I'm ready to clean it up again on the eating. I'm so happy with the muscles and toning Warp workouts are giving me it's been easier to be lax. I'm getting some new supplements I'm trying next week, so that will also give me another impetus to behave. You're on, girl!

Amelia, laughing at you at the suntanning adventure. Isn't life great with kids!

Belinda, enjoy that workout! TGIF! Give Alesia some hugs for me, okay? Love that girl. And she's so pretty :)

Have a great Friday, everyone!

Cheryl
 
Hi girls,

Thanks Cheryl! I will give a Alesia some hugs! Awesome job on your workout, gril!

Amelia** I am confused on my DD's rotation! On Saturday what DVD is it? Is it the on Body Fusion?

Week 1,2 and 3:

Mon: Basic Step plus Lower body hand weight add on (it is one of the workouts on the tape)

Tues: OFF

Wed: Basic Step plus upper body hand weight add on (it is one of the workouts on the tape)


Thurs: One Segment from Total Body Stretching (a good idea to start with the segment that uses no equipment)

Fri: Basic Step plus Abdominal routine add on (it is one of the workouts on the tape)


Sat: Upper AND lower body tubing routine (it is one of the workouts on the tape)


Sun: One segment of Total Body Stretching plus the the abdominal add on from the Basis Step DVD

Hey girls:) im not exactly sure WHAT workout i did today,LOL i started with HSC and after the second cyle i said 'the heck with this hard stuff" then i started doing some UB on my own then jumped on the TM for a thirty minute run:+ VERY weird workout,i didn't like the hsc,as a matter of fact i just listed it on amazon,LOL

Belinda-Well,the dvd that i had-had those workouts on the basic step viedo(I had a seperate body fusion dvd) and i think they were referred to as upper body and lower body add-ons or sculpting? I hope this helps??

ok girls,im tired and hungry so im scooting outa here,sorry about the lack personals:-( but i will bb bright and early in the morning:)
 
Hey, ladies!!!

Well, I figured out the cause of the headaches.....allergies! I had been trying to stop any extraneous pills, but I guess that my allergy medication is no longer extraneous!!! I decided to give that a try yesterday (Thursday) and Lo and Behold, no headaches all day. I still had a small residual today during LIC cardio, but nothing like it has been.

Since I'm posting from work, I'm trying to fly under the radar, so I didn't get a chance to read what everyone's up to. I will try to catch up later, though!

Hugs and :*
