Commit to get FIT & LEAN for December!

'Morning!
Belinda, good thing your family is keeping their eyes on you - you probably would have done 25 and 26 w/o them! Glad you are taking it at least a bit easy.
Kristin, lol at your ds and the Grinch. That's a memory for you. I miss those days. Everywhere I anticipate lockdown procedures will be reviewed and practiced. So sad
Deb, you went to the mall on the weekend? After being there during the week, I didn't think you would want to go there again. Did you get your tree?
Amelia, how are you doing?
Lori, are you packing?
Went on a 3 mile walk yesterday - not fast but not old, slow style either. Been rolling my foot which seems to help the right one anyone. My children are coming home this weekend and really looking forward to seeing them.
Cookie
 
Good morning,

Today I will do D28. No leg workout:)

Cookie - yes, I was hoping to get D37 in yesterday, not with my family. LOL! I will catch up on my leg workouts the end soon. It's all good. I am hoping to get a walk in soon. Good job on your walk yesterday.

Debbie - I hope we both get a workout in this week. Need to clean up my eating.

Kirstin - no, D25 is chest/back not a leg workout. LOL! I haven't watched the news all day yesterday.

Amelia - hope all is well.

Lori - how are you doing?

Have a great Monday. BBL!
 
 
Hey girls, Just finished After Burn #1 premix. I took the last two days off from workouts, after hearing the awful events that happened on Friday morning in CT I just couldn't bring myself to do anything. I agree with you girls on the shooting ( and sorry to even bring it up because Im trying my best to remove it from my mind at this point:( ) Just senseless.....I cried friday evening when I found out and every day since then. sigh:(

Its hard to move on from that subject

How is everyone's christmas shopping going? DH and I are venturing out again this morning after breakfast and hoping to finish up:) Im off today - thank goodness. And the re-grandopening is O*V*E*R. whew...and I was right. It wasn't as bad as I thought it to be:rolleyes:

I will check back in later today. Gotta go get in the shower
 
Evening everyone. Today at work the security was "upped". I had to show my ID at the door. I've been there 13 years and the security guards have known me for 13 years. . . I still needed to show my ID. Whatever :rolleyes:. Don't see how that keeps the building secure. I went over lockdown procedures and answered some questions and we moved on. I also chaperoned the bowling club.

When I got home DH had dinner waiting. Awesome!

My workout was 4DS LIS step only premix, then I added LIC blast off premix and ab work. It was a good, sweaty workout. I am finding I cannot do the longer cardio dvds. I just don't want to do them. I get bored after 40 minutes. I guess between the LIS, and TTM and CF, I have acquired a taste for the fast-paced workouts, instead of steady state. Anyone else finding this to be true?

Belinda- good job. What weights are you using? Have you upped the weight? HAve you redone your one rep maxes?

Amelia- Nice job on AB. I know what you mean. I had to turn the news off yesterday because I couldn't handle it anymore. It was really hard to say goodbye to my kids today.

Cookie- when he asked the GRinch that question, I just laughed. He is sooooo innocent still. He was saying "Merry Christmas" to all the people in the firetrucks as they passed. It was so cute.

Deb- I have yet to take my boys to see Santa. I don't have the patience to go to the mall when I am off. It will be soooo crowded and busy. Parking, lines, Santa line. I just can't deal.

Waving hi to Lori!

Kristin
 
Hi,

The site is slow tonight wondering if everyone is checking to see when the DVDs will arrive:)

One tough day down! Today was the 1st time I misplaced my cell phone (usually just drop it:eek:) I asked a customer to call where I was working & it went to customer service so a really nice customer must have returned it:) A few weeks ago I found a cell phone & returned it to customer service so karma must be working;)

Belinda - Looks like you'll get in more workouts than me this week:) Do you feel any diffence in your foot this week?

Kristin - It does seem weird that they are checking teachers it would be great if they could have a policeman on guard everyday but that would be so expensive. Parking & crowds are getting worse each day. My DH started dinner which was helpful.

Amelia - It's crazy how the story affects everyone in different ways but yet we all feel the same way. Your brave to hit the mall:eek:

Cookie - It must be so exciting that your kids will be home for the holidays! I actually had to finish up work on Sunday it wasn't for pleasure. I was talking to my boss & she asked me if I'm finished with all my service calls this month:confused: I wish. I submitted a lot of work yesterday so maybe that's why.

Goodnight:)
 
'Morning!
Belinda, take it easy on your feet. I was given a wealth of info on feet and much they do, the weight they bear, .... It must have been fun decorating for your first year in the house.
Amelia, the news was probably especially touching for you since yours are in that age range. Glad to hear the reopening went well and is over.
Kristin, yesterday at a school yesterday I was speaking with a teacher who was picking her kids up from gym. A man came to a door near where we were and banged, motioning for us to open. We both shook our head no, and I pointed him around to the main entry. He then motioned for one of the students to open the door. I got so ticked off at him, saying how dare he do that, to get around to the front and I'd walk thru the school to let them know he would be ringing the bell. He then gets snarky saying well guess they don't want their copy machine fixed. The nerve of him. Anyway, turns out he had rung the front bell, the secretary was on call and had told him to wait. Instead he went around looking for another way in. So, when I went to the office about him, and she went to open the door for him, she also gave him a speaking to.
Deb, sorry you were working on Sunday. Are you going to Florida after the holidays again this year? Is your fil doing okay?
Lori, you must be a worldwind with getting ready to move and the holidays.
Yesterday slid on an icy patch and twisted my knee so trying to be gentle to it for a few days. Can't wait for this work week to be over.
Cookie
 
Morning,

3miles done this morning. My DD's birthday is today so I plan on making her a special cake at work today. Can't wait...i love when we have cakes that aren't by the book:)

Cookie-sorry to hear you slipped on some ice and hurt your knee. Hope your feeling better today.

Deb-yay on finding your phone!

Kristin-Nice job on your sweat fest yesterday. I too get bored after 40 minutes w/cardio.

Hello to Belinda and Lori.

Good job with your workouts everyone! I will bbl to catch up:)
 
Hello ladies. I just finished AB. I did the double trouble premix, and I loved it. With this premix you do all sets 1X, and then a second time through. It goes a little faster, clocked in around 52 minutes, but there are less "rests". I found that I pushed myself more, knowing I wouldn't have to do the exercise again until the second round. Although it was only a few minutes less, it felt like it went faster.

So tomorrow there are six days until Christmas and I still have to get my parents presents :(. They are so hard to shop for!!!!

Deb- other people were complaining the site was acting slow yesterday. Wonder what that is about. Did you see the clips for Hard Strikes and Chest, Back and Shoulders? I cannot wait!!!!

Cookie- that Xerox man sounds like real jackass! After everything that just happened? Are you kidding me? He sounds like he has a screw loose! I cannot believe he would have the gall to get aggravated over waiting for clearance and being told to use the proper entry. What a jackass!

Amelia- Happy birthday to your DD!!!! What kind of cake did you bake?

Waving hello to Belinda. I hope you are resting that foot! ;) Xtrain is coming soon!

Kristin
 
Hi,

I was able to get a lot done today at work, but really didn't have time for a workout. It just drives me crazy when I'm redoing set-ups at this time.

Belinda - I hope your resting your feet:)

Kristin - That premix sounds like fun! I haven't had a chance to look at the premixes yet but can't wait. I have a feeling you may be home when the DVDS are delivered.

Amelia - That is really cool that you can use the equipment at work to bake your cake! Wish DD a happy birthday:)

Cookie - What planet is that guy living on?? Your going to have to get spikes on your shoes for the ice . . . seriously I hope you're ok. My FIL is doing well, we're supposed to go to Hawaii (for our Anniversary) but need to wait & see about a couple of things 1st.

Goodnight:)
 
Morning,


Yesterday I was resting my feet and watching tv:eek: Today I will do UB instead of legs. Friday I will do D30.


Good job with your workouts everyone.


Happy Hump Day. BBL!
 
Good afternoon,



STS TB premix is done! Short and sweet!



This morning was thinking about cancelling my Xtrain preorder.The clips just don't appeal to me I was watching the clips at least 10 times on Collage videos and these look very similar to her other workouts. Lots of jumping :confused: DH thinks I should keep them:eek: I am so torn.




Will work my abs tomorrow.


Have a good one.
 
 
 
 
 
Hey girls, just finished a weight lifting workout. I didn't feel like doing any DVD's so I just cranked up some tunes and grabbed some dumb bells and went for it. LOL, ive been working out w/Cathe long enough to imitate some of her moves:p

I made DD a 8' double layer peace sign cake that was green, purple, white & black. Nothing too fancy because I was kinda tired and ready to get out of there:eek: Here's a pic of it...

punka birthday cake 2012.jpg

ok, off to get in the shower. I'm off tomorrow so I will caught up with everyone then
 
Hi ladies. Just finished LICh plus STS AC Yoga abs. Waiting for the boys to go to sleep so I can start wrapping some of their presents :). Two more days until vacation for me. Cannot wait!

Amelia - Great job on the cake. It looks beatiful!

Belinda- I say keep them (Xtrain). I remember how you didn't preorder CF and TTM, either did I. Then we paid full price later, lol. Keep the preorder. If you don't use them, Alesia will. If not, you can sell them and still get what you paid for them back, no?

Deb- five days to go! hang in there. The crazy rush is almost over!

Kristin
 
Hi,

I'm so tired one more really bad day to go. There was one treat today one of the stores had a Calypso band playing Christmas music it was like Christmas in the Bahamas:) That made up for all the people stepping on me:p

Belinda - I would keep the DVDs, since there are 10 workouts maybe a few of them will work for you. You are making your workouts work this week!

Kristin - I know I can't wait until Friday too!! Does your DH have off too?

Amelia - I love the cake, the colors are awesome & you are talented!!! Now if only I could have a taste test:eek:

Waves hi to Cookie & Lori

Goodnight:)
 
'Morning,
Quick checkin since I didn't get here last night.
Belinda, I'm with the rest - keep the preorder. Think you will find a couple that are a good fit for you. Glad you were resting your feet.
Amelia, I have to check out the cake photo yet, but I'm sure it's beautiful. Are green and purple dd's fav colors? Nice job on creating your own workout!
Kristin, wow are you trying to take over Lori's mantle for long workouts? I despise wrapping presents, and think the person who developed gift bags is a genius.
Deb, people actually step on you?!!! That's horrible, and I'm sorry that happens. How rude and inconsiderate. I love calypso and marimba music.
Did Leah Sarago's new total body dvd today - so good.
Cookie
 
Hi,

I'm not sure how many steps I took but it was a lot & for some odd reason there were a lot of broken escalators so I needed to take lots of stairs. Tomorrow I work in NY Macy's to cover for the girl there, she emailed me and said they are sold out on a lot of things but expecting some shipments so maybe tomorrow won't be too bad.

Last night I dreamed I was at the RT with all of you but kept missing all of the classes because I was working in the Macy's in that town:confused:

Belinda - When do you go back to the Dr.?

Kristin - I was thinking about you today believe it or not they are putting out spring clothes/accessories. I really don't mind because it helps me get through the winter.

Amelia - Great job!! Did you preorder new workouts?

Cookie - I'm not sure if they don't see me or are just trying to get a good deal:confused: I'm amazed at how many people are out buying so much stuff. I'm going to have to check that new workout.

Goodnight:)
 
'Morning!
Belinda, do you do most of your celebrating on Christmas Eve? That's how my dh's family always did it. We do some then and then more on Christmas Day.
Amelia, bet your darlings are getting excited. KPC always makes me think of stress relief.
Kristin, last day. Do you have everything wrapped?
Lori, how are you doing?
Deb, now that would be work road trip! The NYC store should be crazy today, or at least I would imagine it to be. There are lots of folks out buying. Are you still thinking of getting a pedometer?
It sure is windy out! Was hard to walk the dogs. TG today Invisible Fence is coming!!! Our system light is on, new batteries in the collars but something is not working. I'm not used to having to walk the dogs - just open the door and out they go. It has been out for a month now and I'll be happy to stop walking them esp. in the dark thru fields.
Cookie
 
Good morning,

I will keep my preorder. Watched more clips on FB and for some reason they look better/longer than the once on College videos. I will not buy anymore workouts dvds for a year, lol. I need to use the once I have instead adding more and more. I sitll have a lot of Cathe dvd with lot's of premixes that I haven't done. Still haven't open KCM and some of Amy Bento which I bought over a year ago. I need to count my workout dvds this weekend, lol. I'll bet I have over 200 workout dvds? Thank guys for your response, it helped! LOL!

Cookie - we do all our celebrating on Christmas Eve. It's windy here too. Woke up with a giant headach. We have on of those invisible fence, I don't trust it? Lot's of people have them around here.

Kirstin - your workouts looking great . Enjoy your day's off. I would be hard to sell just a few dvds since the new series comes in a case:confused:

Debbie - can't believe people stepped on you? Your poor thing! People are so rude around this time of the year. I will go back to the doc after x-mas, more likely after the New Years, lol

Amelia - nice job on the cake and your workouts.

Lori - good luck with your move.

I will do D30 today.

Enjoy your day, everyone.
