Commit to get fit & lean for June!

Good Morning Girls:)

Another beautiful day here...our weather is awesome. We usually don't get to many days like this in a row. I think its suppose to be warm and sunny right up until Wed.

Yesterday's workout was 35 mins of cardio (bike and TM) and standing work in LBB. Today will just be a run outside with the baby. DS is gone with my SIL and her family for the day. Its family day at her DH's work so they took him with them. He will enjoy it but he wasn't the easiest to wake up. I can't imagine what he will be like when its time to go to school.

Belinda** I love AB...one of my favs!

I will probably bbl to report my workout!

Hi,

Yestday I did M2 D22 Chest, shoulders & tri's. Today I'm going to do a Cathe Kickboxing just not sure which one yet. So yesterday was stressful but like Lori says it's always better in the morning:) Actually things are starting to fall in place even my car issues are working out. TG for family support!

My SIL called me to tell me that my other SIL is not doing well her blood pressure is very high. She quit smoking several years ago but gained weight so she isn't too healthy. She has more tests on Monday but they want her to start eating better & exercising. I feel so bad for her.

Belinda - It must be fun to w/o with DD. Ugh, on the manager they say eating burned food is bad for you.

Lori - Looks like your keeping yourself busy:) The hot, humid weather is gone so we are going to have some beautiful weather too. At least you didn't fall asleep on the girls:) it sounds like you had fun.

Cookie - I finally slept good last night. My neighbor told me that most nights she sleeps in another room from her DH because she doesn't want to kill him:eek:

Enjoy the weekend:)
 
Good Morning

Yesterday was o.k. I had to bring the baby home from a bday party because he was sleepy and I would have rathered stayed there and socialized. Then when I get home I figure I'll take a nap too and whadya know! His nap last for about 10 mins! He finally went for his nap 5 mins before DS returned home....so there went that idea! The evening was kind of long because I was going to go to my inlaws but the baby slept until 7:30. I ended up mowing the lawn after and doing some weeding.

Today I have no real plans. I would like to take the kids to the park where my SIL is and I also wouldn't mind getting some flowers for some pots this afternoon. I'm going to have to take DS some where cause he's going to be bored out of his mind.

Yesterday's workout was just 10 k outside. I'm not sure what I will do today, probably something in the basement even though it's beautiful out again.

Deb** smoking/ weight gain seems to be a battle for most people when they try to quit. I use to work with a lady and she would quit, then gain weight and then start smoking again to lose the weight...which didn't happen. It was a cycle and now she isn't the smallest person I know, that's for sure. I saw her the other day at a baby shower and she's just as big and negative as she was the last time I saw her:confused:

I may bbl to report. If not I will be here bright and early in the morning * yawn*!

Hey ladies!

We are having a blast in Florida. We did not get to our hotel until 2 a.m. Friday. So we hung around here and lounged by the pool to rest up. Then we went to Downtown Disney with Jessica and her family, did I tell you we were going on vacation together? We ate at the house of blues, the food was awesome. Yesterday we went to Epcot. It was our first time being there since our honeymoon twelve years ago. It was so much fun. They had a Finding Nemo ride that when the ride was over, you were in this aquarium. Not your average aquarium. It had manatees and dolphins! They boys were amazed. That was my favorite part of this park. We spent about an hour there alone. They brought back Captain EO with Michael Jackson. My older DS is such a fan so we watched it. The fireworks show at the end was phenomenal.

Anyway. . . I am keeping up with workouts at the gym at the hotel. Friday I did a 45 minute treadmill workout and then did bis and tris with the free weights. Yesterday I did an hour on the elliptical and then I worked chest back and shoulders. I am thinking today will be travel fit.

We are supposed to go to Jessica's hotel today's and hang out by the pool, but it is raining, so not sure.

Lori- your baby-party-nap story sounds so familiar to me. . . I guess because I have been there plenty of times, lol. It is amazing when the thought comes to maybe just rest when the baby is sleeping, and then you start to only for the baby to say "Not so fast there mommy" just as you were getting into it.

Deb- you are working out in the morning then? Here I have been working out in the morning, but around 7-8. I don't think I could ever get ups early enough to workout before work. I. Wake up at 5:30 as it is just to get ready in time.

Belinda- great job on AB. I think it is so cool that you and your daughter can workout together from time to time.

Okay, I have to get up and get travel fit in before the kiddies get up. They are so tired, lol.

Hi,

We went to my Mom's for the day to visit with my Aunt & cousin who were up from NC. I'm going to just take a rest day today. I woke up with upper body DOMS today.

I'm going to try & go to bed early tonight:)

Lori - I always wondered if people who quit smoking but start up again lose the weight but I guess that doesn't really happen. I hope you had a nice day today:)

Kristin - I didn't realize you were going with Jessica's family that is great. It sounds like you are having a blast!

Waves hi to Belinda & Cookie

Goodnight:)
 
Good Morning:)

Don't really have a plan for today...glad I survived another weekend though. I don't have the girls today (not sure if I told you that I take care of my nieces) so I may take DS to my friends house after lunch, she has a pool. I also wanted to get more flowers and I may do that later...I could even do that after dinner tonight.

Yesterday's workout was AB, 40 mins on the TM and BM abs...haven't done that one in a long time. I don't know what today's workout will be but I'm thinking cardio and some UB weights.

Kristin** glad to hear you are having a good time and that your keeping up with your workouts! Def keeps the weight gain under control!

Deb** sounds like you had a nice weekend. I gave the STS series back to my sister and I am kind of missing it. It was her's and she let me use it because she had started a day job (she's a nurse) and she didn't know when she was going to get to use it. When she went back in jan I gave it to her. I haven't asked her if she's tried it yet....maybe she will sell it to me:).

I will probably bbl today.....

Lori:)
 
Good morning,

Had a busy weekend, lol! Will do GS Legs today.

Lori - you have a lot on your plate. Taking care of your kids and your nieces! WOW! I don't know how you do it? Kudos to you, girls! What flowers are you planting? Your workouts look amazing.

Debbie - glad you had fun visting your family. Good job on your DOMS.

Kirstin - glad you and Jesicca's family having a fantastic time in Florida.
 
Hi Cookie!

I will be back later.
 
 
 
Hi Girls

DS is in the tub and the baby is a sleep! I don't know if I should wake him or maybe he will sleep on as if it were night time! Although he def needs to be freshened up and jammies on.

My inlaws took DS again today. As soon as he woke up he started talking about going to nanny's and poppy's so poppy came and picked him up and I took the baby for a 10k run. That's all I did today. I am thinking that I should have done some weights b/c tomorrow will be busier.

Belinda** Believe it or not, having the girls here keeps DS occupied. They were here all day on Fri and they did keep me on my toes but part of that was my fault. Instead of getting them all snacks at the same time, they all wanted them at different times and they kept interrupting what I was trying to do. I just needed some flowers for the front of my house. I just picked some up that were already in pots:eek:...took the easy way out:eek:

I will bb in the morning!

Lori:)
 
Hi,

I did Fluidity intermediate DVD today. Nothing is ever easy my boss can't make it to help me with the back to school set-up in July, the merchandise may not make it in time & I have my BIL retirement dinner the night of the set-up:confused: So I'm spinning tomorrow so I can deal with this;)

Belinda - I really like the GS series, I hope Cathe makes a sequel:)

Lori - It's great if your nieces keep your DS busy because the baby must still need so much. I forgot to get some flowers for the front of my house but I have to be careful that it's not anything the deer's like:) & you didn't take the easy way out your plate is so full!

Cookie - How was your weekend?

Goodnight:)
 
Good Morning:)

I shouldn't have let the baby sleep so long yesterday evening:eek: He didn't go to sleep until after 12 BUT he slept through the night and didn't wake until 6:15 and he is still sleeping now. So even though I went to bed later, I think I got more sleep and a better sleep.

I am not sure what today's workout will be. I will do weights while I am keeping an eye on the kids and then after I will do cardio. I didn't have any issues with working out when they were here all day on Fri but I was up earlier and so was the baby.

Deb** Lol....I can only imagine a deer chewing on my flowers:D My MIL gets mad b/c the bunnies get into her's and she's like the flower queen. I know as much about flowers as I do about cars....what color they are:confused::D

I will bbl to report my workout. Aiming to do the GS's!

Lori:)
 
Good morning,

Today I will do MMA Boxing.
 
Lori - wow, your baby slept so long. glad you got some sleep. Glad to hear the girls keeps DS occupied, lol. Gives you a brake.Have fun with the GS's. I bought a bunch of flower pots too. I have seeds, but for some reason they never made in the pot...:eek:
 
Debbie - sorry about your boss. Need to look Fluidity up?

Hi Cookie and Kirstin:D
 
 
 
 
 
 
I will be back after my workout. Have a good one, everyone!
 
Hi,

I did took a spin class today. It was nice to get my w/o in the AM, the weird thing was I kept thinking I needed to get a w/o in when I came home.

I spoke to my boss today who lives in Florida & she said tropical storm Debby is bringing lots of rain & wind to FL. I'm hoping Kristin & her family are being spared:confused:

Belinda - I bet since your season is longer you can still plant the seeds otherwise their's always next year:)

Lori - You may have to keep the baby up every night, why do I remember it just doesn't work that way . . . but at least you were lucky last night:) Same here I only know the colors of flowers & cars;) Have fun with the GS's.

Cookie - Wondering if your having internet problems or just busy.

Goodnight:)

Good morning,

Yesterday I did MMA Boxing, so much fun!

Debbie - good job on that spin class yesterday. Love getting my workouts in the morning. I was thinking about Kirstin and her family too. Hope she is fine.

Waving Hallo to Lori, Cookie and Kirstin.

Today I will do GS Chest & Triceps.

Happy Hump Day, everyone!
 
 
Good Morning:)

Slept pretty good. The baby woke at 2'ish and he peed through his jammies:eek: So I had to change him and he did not like that one bit...he just wanted to eat! He didn't seem to care at all that he was wet:confused: And he let me know...he cried and woke DS up:mad: Surprisingly DS went back to sleep and so did I after a while.

Yesterday was o.k. I missed DH yesterday, hopefully today will be better. I know its going to be a roller coaster ride. Im not going to stop missing him and never miss him again...6 months is a long time.

I ended up doing PH abs, GS B,S&B, MMA punching combos and just 20 mins on the TM. I may do C&T today and a longer cardio...or just cardio.

Belinda** Yeah, I can't see my seeds ever making it to a pot either:p Its so much easier to buy them already done. I also like buying window boxes already done but this year we bought flowers and my SIL planted them all.

Deb** There are some weird storms on the go. I think DH is expecting a tornado as well. We don't get that kind of stuff here, it usually dies down when its over the water and by the time it gets here it isn't nearly as powerful. I also like early morning workouts....Im just hungrier all day!

I will bbl!

Lori:)
 
Hi girls,


GS Chest & Tricep is done!


Lori - glad you had a good night sleep. Can your SIL come to my house:p


Off to the shower! BBL!
 
'Evening! Feel like I'm finally back in the land of civilization with the satellite connection working. Wish I didn't feel so guilty and busy during the day - I could check in then.
Belinda, how is your dh feeling? Does he still need pt?
Kristin, hope you're doing okay with Debby down there. Sure is not the same as our sweet Deb.
Lori, did I see you only did like seven workouts in one day. What's up with that? Are you slacking? Glad you and your boys got back to sleep again.
Deb, it sounds like the stress is not ending for you. Sorry about that.
Had to go back on cortizone medication for hip pain and it seems like I'm puffing up from it already. Feel like my body is out of control. From lack of sleep and stress, I'm developing zits! At my age! Then my stylist found a couple of discolorations and now I have to get them checked out. Geez, if it was someone else, I'd be laughing.
Cookie
 
Good evening,

Wasn't feeling well this morning...DH came home a few day's ago with a stomach virus. My stomach is upset since yesterday, but didn't border me during my workout, weird! I just finished MMA Boxing + HiiT DWP.

Cookie - sounds like stess isn't ending for you either (((HUGS))) I was on cortizone shots in Germany for my back, they made me puff up. Good news, it will go away. Oh, and when I stress I get a zits too. Got one right now. LOL, yes our age! I am having a glass of wine tonight, lol. DH doesn't need a PT or anything anymore. Thank goodness. He is almost 100%.

Lori - I need ot remember windowboxes already done for next year, smart girl! LOL! I like it the hard way. I got tired just reading your workouts, wtg!

Hi Debbie and Kirstin!

Good night girls!
