Commit to get Fit & Lean for April 2015

Good morning,

I will do 21 Day Fix Cardio Fix after my coffee.

Yesterday I posted in the March thread .

I will be back later.
 
Hi guys. Still got the wicked cold. I haven't worked out all week. Glad it was my rest week from STS. I am really angry and upset about the new education reforms. Now I have to reapply for certification every 5 years even though I had permanent certification. That's a money grab. I've been pretty down. Starting to think about my options and maybe leave teaching profession.

Hopefully I will get s workout in tomorrow.

Hi there - I've started doing Cathe workouts again after a long break due to illness. Do you all take new members to your check-in group? Happy Easter to everyone celebrating this weekend! -- Christinae

Hope you feel better soon ((HUGS))
 
Yesterday I did Pure Strength Back, Biceps and Abs. Today I did Rockout Knockout -- that was really fun and I can't believe I made it through. We will see how sore I am tomorrow. Have a good night! C
 
Hi,

I didn't get a workout in today, finished up my taxes and that is a relief! Tomorrow going to get a much needed pedicure:)

So yesterday was a crazy day. Almost all of the stockrooms at Macy's are visible to everyone on the floor with a code to get in. In one store their is a hidden stockroom that you must go through a Men's fitting room, to a room with a curtain in front of it & a door that is padlocked that leads to this makeshift stockroom. It is always opened in the day & I have never seen anyone in it. Yesterday a girl comes in to drop a box off, we make eye contact and she leaves and I hear strange rattling outside. I finish getting what I needed and go to leave and realize she has padlocked the outside so no way for me to get out. I was freaking out, I banged & tried to kick the door but it wasn't opening. My phone battery has been acting up so I was nervous because I didn't have much left. I called down to main office after a couple of tries finally was able to reach a person. They couldn't find me because some people don't even know about this stockroom. TG a girl from handbags came back to look for something & I called out to her and she needed to find the key. By the time it was over it was almost 30 minutes before I was let out:mad: I found out the girl was from Sunglass Hut and asked her why did she lock the door, she said she thought I left. Seriously!! she was in the stockroom for only a couple of seconds where could I have gone:confused: She hugged me and apologized but it really shook me up!

Belinda - You are getting a lot of workouts in! I haven't been using the containers for all my meals but have been more or less playing around with them and especially using them for my weakness like carbs, nuts. I didn't realize but I have a hard time getting in protein. I plan to use them when I get back from vacation. Kudos on doing so well!!

Kristin - Do you have tenure? It must be extremely frustrating for them to change the rules now:( Take it easy & feel better.

Cookie - Are the kids coming home for the holiday?

Christinae - Welcome & kudos for getting back to working out!

Waves hi to everyone

Goodnight:)
 
'Morning!
Belinda, are you cooking dinner tomorrow? How are the engagement/wedding plans coming along?
Welcome Christinae!
Kristin, I can not believe it. Who would want to enter this profession? Hope you feel better soon.
Deb, carbs are a definite weakness for me, and I'm not even doing that plan. Our anniversary is today, so we're off celebrating this weekend in Quebec. Since only one of the kids could have come home, it works out. When are you going on vacation?
Been getting lots of miles in - 7 on Tuesday, 8 on Wednesday, 9 on Thursday, and 18.5 yesterday. Today's going to be a rest day w/walking being sightseeing.
Happy Easter/Passover.
Cookie
 
Good morning,

I will do 21 Day Fix Dirty 30 after my coffee. DH and I are heading to DC. The kids suckered DH into coming to DC instead of them coming to us :)

Cookie - wow, you getting lots of miles in. Good for you, girl. The wedding will be next year, still have lots of time to plan.

Debbie - the containers helped me too with my proteins. I guess, I wasn't eating enough. Try to spread them through out the day. The carbs was an eye opener:)

Christinae - good for you f for getting back to working out!

Happy Easter!
 
Hi,

Happy Easter!!!​

I didn't get a workout in today but was moving most of the day so hopefully I burned some calories;) Another busy day tomorrow but it's supposed to be beautiful which is nice!

Belinda - Going to DC sounds like fun, I like relaxing on the car ride when we travel since DH drives:) Have fun!

Kristin - Are you hidding the eggs tonight;)

Cookie - Quebec sounds awesome, we leave on Tuesday. You are getting in lots of miles!

Christinae - Hi

Goodnight:)
 
Happy Easter everyone. I did no workouts all week! Between the cold and everything else, I just didn't have it in me. I got back on the horse today with LI Hiit 2 from RWH. I am starting Meso 2 tomorrow.

Yesterday I decided to snap out of my funk and I cleaned my kitchen, top to bottom. I even scrubbed my kitchen floor on my hands and knees with a scrub brush and pinesol. The grout looks brand new. Then we went to DH's baseball game. He is the catcher and he got hit in the mask with a foul ball. It bounced off his mask, but the mask made contact with his head. Anyway, we were worried he might have a concussion, so we had to take him to the hospital. It was a late night, but the good news is he is fine.

We are heading to my parents' house. This will be the first time I see my sister since Christmas. Wish me luck, lol.

Deb- What an idiot that sunglass hut girl is. . . locking you in and thinking you had left already. I would've been panicking too. Luckily you got help before your phone died! I do have tenure and PERMANENT certification, that the king just took away. now I have to reapply for certification every five years. That'll run me a few hundred bucks. I am disgusted by this whole thing. I am starting to think of other options. I could be a dog trainer, lol.

Belinda- the good thing about you going to DC instead of having kids coming to you. . . no cooking :).

Cookie- It is clear to me he is trying to destroy public education and he has powerful billionaires on his side. I am running for alternate rep in my union this May. I feel the union has not done nearly enough and I want to get more involved.

Christinae- welcome to the group! This group keeps me motivated.

Kristin
 
Good evening,

DH and I are in DC until Monday. My kids wanted us to stay longer :) Getting lots of steps in too. I also went for a short run at my kids apartment gym.

Cookie - hope you having a great weekend.

Kirstin - that's a lot of cleaning. I thought you getting a cleaning lady? Hope all went well at your parents house.

Debbie - I can't sleep in the car :) DH and I talk a lot, lol:) Did you sign up for the RT?

Christinae - hope you had a great weekend as well.

I will be home tomorrow. Have a great Easter!
 
Hi,

Too much Easter candy today & I don't even think I loved it:oops: I cleaned for 3 hours this morning so much dust in hidden places over the winter! It was nice to open my blinds & let the sun in too. That will have to be my workout;) I plan to go to the gym & walk when we are away.

Belinda - That is so sweet the kids want you to stay. You'll probably hit less traffic too! I did sign up for Daytona.

Kristin - TG your little guy is ok that is scary. I didn't due as much detailed cleaning as you but it gives me incentive to do it when I get back.
WTH on losing permanent certification?? That is just crazy and so unfair. A dog trainer . . . I remember when you were just thinking about getting a dog . . . you have come a long way LOL.

Cookie - Enjoy your trip.

Goodnight:)
 
Good afternoon,

I did 21 DF TB Cardio.

Debbie - Isn't it :) Thank goodness, I always pack a little extra cloth. I guess you and Kirstin doing Spring cleaning, hah? LOL! I am excited for you. You will have lots of fun.

I will be back tomorrow. Have a great day and workout.
 
Hey everyone. I just finished STS M2 D13. I did very well with all the weights suggested for 1RM, except for the alternating seated front press. I had to go from 15# to 12# to do the reps. I struggled with the tricep work too, but was only off by one rep at the end of each set, so I kept the weight for that one. Today it is gorgeous out. I did some more cleaning and took Baxter for a walk and played with him in the backyard. We are planning on going to the outlets after dinner to get the boys some spring clothes. I plan on getting some sandals too, if I see anything I like anyway.

Belinda- I am still thinking about getting a cleaning lady, but probably not until the next school year. Even then, I think I need to keep every penny I make, lol. I'll look into it, but I don't know. When I was scrubbing the floor, a cleaning lady was a good idea, lol.

Deb- I ate sooooo much Easter candy. TOTM came today, so I was eating the salty chips and the chocolate. I am still eating it today, lol. I cannot stop. Why does the Easter bunny bring so much candy to my kids, lol.

Speaking of Easter bunny. . . my older son is turning 10 in August and he definitely is questioning the Easter bunny, Santa. . . it makes me sad. I don't want to tell him the truth, lol. I want him to be innocent and little forever. Ugh!

Okay, bb tomorrow.

Hi,

I'm packing away, today was beautiful so I hate to leave. Ugh, on the sugar cravings this week it won't stop. I'm going to pick up some lemons when we are away and try and detox the sugar out of me LOL.

Belinda - I'm sure you had beautiful weather too today! I'm sure you do Spring cleaning all year long;)

Kristin - The outlets are alway a fun day, and better if you don't do the weekend. How did it go with your sister? It is always sad when they stop believing. I was trying to remember if both boys stopped the same time but mine are only 21 months apart.

Cookie - You'll have to tell us how Quebec was.

Amelia - If you are out there, how are you?

Goodnight:)
 
Hey guys. Just finished TTM. I did a premix, no 30/20 hiit, but I doubled the step tabata. It was a good workout.

The outlets were okay. We got some good deals on the kids' clothes and I got some sandals from Aerosole, but other than that. . . the deals weren't that great.

The boys are driving me crazy today. The attitude on my older one is really trying my patience.

Anyway. . .

Deb- I need to detox, lol. I cannot stop eating the candy. It's pretty bad.

Belinda- that's sweet how your kids wanted you to stay longer. Are you back yet?

I am thinking of taking boys to the movies. Even though they don't deserve it. . . it might give me some quiet time.

Kristin
 
Good evening,

I also did Cathe Live Push Pull TB! Loved it:)

Cookie - how are you?

Kirstin - isn't it :) We did had a lot of fun this weekend. We came back on Monday morning. Next weekend we are going to see the cherry blossom :) WOW, on your workout today. Sorry about your son. It's that age :p Lot's of headaches.

Debbie - are you packed yet? Throw that candy out. Not worth it :D




Good night, ladies!
