Good Morning!

Just wanted to start the thread and say "im outta here"!:D Leaving in a couple of mins for the airport.

Also I received my bib # last night and its 2473 and you guys can go to www.sportstats.ca . To view the results. It says that the website is updated every 30 sec so I don't know if that's finishing times or tracking me all the way?

Anyway....hope I survive the heat!! Have a good weekend everyone!

Lori:)
 
Good Morning Ladies

Lori- Good luck!!! Too cool about being able to track you. :)

Belinda- (((Hugs))) I just can't believe it all this is happening to you!! A week in the hospital??? Damn..... keep us posted!

Deb- Did you fly by last night? I thought I felt a quick breeze! :D Hope you had a good day yesterday!

Trish- Sometimes our bodies take over and say "hell no" to working out. Those are not good days. :confused: How is your stomach feeling today? Sounds like you got some kickass workout planned for today! I was thinking after Meso 3, isn't there a newer FF rotation using GS and STS?? Or is that a Cathe one? Or am I thinking of her Leg blast rotation? either way, I think I want to do something with GS because of doing this BFFM challenge.

Amelia- BOOOOOO! :eek: Nice workout yesterday! So are you pretty much settled back into things since that storm?

Helene-Nice workout last night!! I got your pm, I will pm you back after these messages...hehe. I would have yesterday but sometime's it's a royal pain in the arse using the phone unless it's a quick message. Yes I was busy AND alone last night. DG stopped in yesterday morning, we totally ignored each other, and he was gone again......GOOD. But keep in mind, he doesn't know that I know, so he's just ignoring me trying to get my attention..........he's done it a couple of times. :rolleyes:

Ok so rest day for me! I"m gonna go re-take these pictures for BFFM. Nothing to tell really.......no excitement really. Have a great day!
 
Morning

I know im doing 4ds legs today, not sure what else. I need to do a cardio since im trying to lose weight:rolleyes:...

~QUESTION~Any body familiar with the bosu ball? I've thought about getting one but was wanting more opinions on it...how do you like it? Is it challenging to workout on? (challenging as in a high dread factor?)

GO LORI GO>>>RUN YOU CRAZY GAL>>>>

Iris-When are you starting BFFM? I did it a few years back, lost about 10lbs , i use to LOVE that free day;):p(lol) Yeah, were pretty settled after the shock of it all(storms) i just can't believe it took out so much stuff, just like that...all gone:mad: Still waiting on the home owners insurance to show up,there taking there sweet time:rolleyes:

Helene-Nice run last night. I haven't ran steady state in a while...its very challenging:confused:

Trish-What pushed me over the edge was getting on that scale, man..what an eye opener:eek:. I usualy gain like 3-5lbs of water, but never 9?. I won't allow my self to gain any more weight:mad: That's whats really cool about it all, we have control over it. I lost 3.8lbs so far of the 9lbs of water weight. Im going to chug a lug more water today,LOL. wish me luck

Hello to everyone that missed!

Morning!

Well I am so excited about this three day weekend coming up I can't even begin to tell you :D

Lori: Cool we will check too :D

Iris: I am still on no rotation. But I am back in the swing of workouts, so that's good. I am doing M3 and M2 mostly because of the BFFM thing. I think it should work out great. About the team, all the people are supposed to start within 24 hours of each other (individual and group posts both). I am not sure if you are considered having started already or not since you did mention about posting already. You might need to look a little bit into it. Otherwise, I saw some people in teams who started earlier during the week and are now missing one team mate. Would be cool if we were on the same team though. Maybe we should chat on the phone. What's your schedule today?

Trish: I must go back and read. I didn't realize that your stomach wasn't feeling well.

Have a great day everyone!

OK, BBL
 
Hey there! Remember me? Sorry I've been MIA the past couple of weeks. I've been so sick with bronchitis, plus had an attack of diverticulitis - not fun at all. Today is the first day I've tried to even catch up on emails, and I saw a couple from my friends! I can't tell you how much they meant.
So, what have I missed? What's up with BFFM? I should do it since I've been so inactive, I feel like I'm soft.
Belinda, are you having sinus surgery or is it something else? Did you and Amelia meet up yet? Are you in the US or Germany?
Lori, best of luck on the race! That's cool how they think they might be able to track you. They must not know you're so speedy and energized.
Amelia, sounds like the storms really affected you. Is everyone alright? I finally did a dog walk today and am jugging water as I type. Don't have a bosu ball, but do have a bosu and like it. Thought I would use it more than I do tho.
Helene, are you on a team for BFFM? Guess I need to read up and find out what's going on. How are you and your family doing? Any plans for the long weekend? The weather has just been fabulous the past few days - hoping it holds out over the next three.
Iris, DG is still around?!!! What's going on with him these days? Are you taking more certification classes? Did you change jobs? How's your mom?
Deb, where are you off to? Any news on the roadtrip? Interested in going to Houston?
I haven't checked even into if there are openings yet, but my dh told me about it. For Christmas he gave me a Cathe gift card so he gets emails from her. My dad's birthday is 10-10 and he lives in Houston, so I'm thinking of it.
Trish, sorry your stomach is bothering you. It sucks to not feel well. Take care of yourself.
Well, today is the first day I really feel pretty good since like the middle of April! Can't remember not working out for such a long time. But I've was whipped. First my shoulder and then sick. Put off shoulder surgery for now until I completely recover.
I have a lot to catch up on. I've missed you all.
Cookie
 
Cookie-Glad to see your feeling better! Hugs to you! I didn't even know there was a difference between a bosu and bosu ball:confused: maybe i should google them:rolleyes:

My workout is done, decided on DM cardio drills through 5 then did some bb squats the lowerbody on DM. Pretty good workout. I also plan on walking the dog this evening...the kids are suppose to go to there meme's so im crossing my fingers that they do, mommy needs a break:confused:
 
Iris: Check your PM.

Cookie: Were your ears itching or what? I phoned Iris (and it's not like we talk on the phone more than once a month LOL) and we were talking about whether we should give you a call or leave you alone. We had decided to give you another month. :p Sorry to hear you have been having a rough time but mighty glad to hear from you.

Amelia: I missed your post while I was typing this morning. Don't have a bosu. For me I didn't want another piece of equipment to clutter my basement. Sorry I am of no help ;) Nice workout today and I hope you get your break tonight :)
 
Let's see if this works! I'm checking in from my hotel room. I went out for a stroll but I didn't want to go to far from my hotel! Lol! I was afriad I would get lost. I don't know if city life is for a small town girl like moi!

Iris** you know what happens when nothing exciting happens? No one checks in! Haha! We need 'D' drama!

Ameila** good job with your workout. I enjoy DM!

Deb** hope you enjoy your long weekend. Long weekends are awesome.

Cookie** glad your finally checking in with us! Hehe! Even happier to hear you are feeling better.

Seen lots of people travelling for the marathon while I was at the airport. I was listening to peoples conversations! Haha!

I will probably check in sunday now that I know I can from my phone!

Lori
 
Cookie: Yayyy!! Were your ears ringing this morning or what?? Like Helene said, we were on the phone this morning. ;) I'm so glad to hear you're back on your feet. I'm so sorry for everything you've gone through. (((hugs)))) My mom is doing well, she is off chemo (for the time being). Her scans came back showing no progression, so now she can enjoy (some) of this summer. :D How is YOUR mom?? Oh, and forget DG....you'll have to read wednesday's post.....:rolleyes: Are you thinking of signing up for Texas? Seriously? If you do/are, you'd really be twisting my arm.

Helene: Wow, thanks for all that info! So now I wont' delete, and today is officially day 3 for me. *Not that I have much to show for it...lol* So have you officially started? Ohh and DG was walking in as soon as I hung up with you.... He came and stood by the bar, and didn't say anything but hello....I wonder how long this phase will last....:rolleyes:

Amelia- Hope you're getting that break you needed! Kudos to you for even pressing play on DM....it's the only workout I won't touch anymore...lol Something about those drills I just don't enjoy....

Lori- That's great you can check in from your phone. What kind of phone do you have? Or was it having wi-fi in your hotel room that was questionable? Either way...good luck !!! If I get a chance I am definitely going to track you!

Not much to tell tonight.....I might listen to that online seminar for BFFM, maybe some reading from one of the fourteen textbooks I've now acquired, and some yoga. I know, boring life for a single, 30 year old! But it keeps me out of trouble, and it keeps me feeling healthy and even keel .... and for the time being, that's what counts. ;)
 
Evening ladies,

Well no workout for me tonight. DD got sick in the car and has gotten sick again since then. I hate cleaning up that stuff. So stinky. I swear sometimes it's worse than poop. .......sigh......

Iris: Aren't you glad you didn't come over for a drink tonight :confused: Anyways, I was thinking of stuff you could say to him on my way home: "you're more moody than any woman I know", "you're too high maintenance", "I'm just not that into you". Any of these work, with a good shrug of the shoulders of course. All right, enough entertaining myself....

Have a good evening all.

Helene
 
Helene- Omg...! I'm so sorry about your DD! :( I don't know if it's worse to be the sick or the one that has to clean it up! :confused: As far as DG, he knows all these things about himself....I told him he was too difficult to be with on Monday....but telling him I'm not that into him? He'll just say he doesn't believe me. I can't say I'm seeing anyone.......that would get around, and people would be asking about my make believe boyfriend. :confused::eek: For now I don't have to say anything, because he's not "speaking to me".... You know, I'm so glad you find entertainment out of all of this! :eek: LOL Ohhh...I can't believe this,but I broke down and purchased the HolyGrail program by Tom Venuto. :eek: I need to try something! I eat pretty super clean, and workout friggin' hard.....damnit. BUT I've never been one to really count calories or carb cycle or any of that bullsh*t, but looks like I might start!
 
Hi girls,

Even though I had the day off too much to do:mad: I went to the gym and did 30 min. on the TM and later in the day did BBL Sculpt.

I don't think they'll be any workout for me tomorrow. I'm going to lunch with a friend and her Mom who I haven't seen in 25 years, we grew up 2 doors from each other. We were really good friends but things happened and we lost touch. She is now living in Houston, TX. I'll have to tell her about the Cathlete's that will be visiting in October:) My SIL is coming with me but wants to leave at 10:30AM tomorrow:eek:

Cookie - I'm glad your back . . . sorry you were so sick:( Hopefully you were able to rest up and you'll be back in no time. The weekend of TX roadtrip is bad for me because since I was a baby we would go to the Catskills every Columbus Day weekend. We haven't been there in 2 years because family stopped going but we're thinking of going back with the kids and there gf's this year, otherwise I would consider it. Still haven't heard anything about NJ roadtrip:( Iris may be going to Cathe's I think 6/24 thinking about going for the day.

Belinda - So sorry you have to go through so much when you are on vacation. Just take care of yourself and will be thinking of you.

Lori - Wishing you luck and I'll check facebook to see how it goes. Don't party too much before the race;)

Iris - I cracked up when Helene said to tell DG "Your just not that into Him" boy would that shoot down his ego:eek: I'll have to check out the HolyGrail program it sounds interesting, should probably read the e-book 1st:)

Helene - So sorry about your DD, that's rough to clean up almost would make you get sick:( So funny the advice you offered Iris about DG:)

Amelia - Honestly the weight thing is so hard for us woman. I swear hormones play such a role in the number on the scale:( I hope everything worked out with the inspector.

Trish - I hope you enjoyed pilates. Looks like your getting in a lot of workouts:) Any plans for the weekend?

Good night and enjoy the longgggg weekend:)
