Commit to get FIT & Lean for June!

Hi everyone. It was a busy weekend because we had my younger DS birthday here. I spent all day Saturday cleaning and then I had to clean it again Sunday morning, lol. I did manage to do Supercuts Sunday before the party. The party was going great, everyone was having a great time. . . and then my sister started a fight with my parents. . . in front of everyone. . . right as I was about to bring out the cake. . . my parents left, then my sister got up and left five minutes later. I was mortified. Luckily, I have made some great friends. Jessica (she came with me on the RT) got me a drink right away, lol. This was the first time my sister saw my new house. I think she was jealous and stewing about it (she lives in her mother-in-law's basement apartment with her husband and two kids). She was nice and then her mood changed and she took her baby inside the house in the living room and her DS was knocking the younger kids down on the trampoline. My dad corrected him a few times and then pulled him off the trampoline. My sister came out as my dad was reprimanding him and then she started yelling at my nephew and then turned on my parents. .. I was trying to light the candles and then all hell broke loose. I was mortified. I mean, on one level, I was glad that I was not directly involved and my dad told her off, which he never does. . . but it was in front of my friends and it was embarrassing. My sister, who is 35, acted like an adolescent. It was also (in a way) a relief that others saw how crazy she can be because a lot of times when I get into it with her, she makes me feel as if it is my fault, and I question myself. Am I a bad sister? a bad person? My sister's DH was working, so he was not there, but he called my dad and was angry. . . they got into it. I don't know where things stand now. I am angry that she made a scene at my son's party. I cannot imagine if I did something like that what she would have to say about it. . . but it is done and over with. Luckily the kids were on the trampoline still and didn't really see anything or hear anything. I wish she would just move away.

Anyway. . . that is that. I proctored the first final today. Then I did my grades. I have my end of the year artifacts meeting sometime tomorrow. . . wish me luck!

Belinda- the poor bunny! I hope he makes it. I know how you feel. One time, I witnessed my cat grab hold of a small bird. . . he "played" with it for a bit and then wouldn't let go. It was awful. No matter how domesticated we make our pets, they still have a bit of wild in them.

Cookie- sorry to hear about your uncle. (((HUGS))).I am crossing my fingers my parents will open the pool soon.

Deb- weighted hula hoops? I never heard that before! I laughed when you wrote that you thought you would be black and blue from it. I could never hula hoop. It always falls within five seconds!

I'm off to bed!

Hi,

Today I did the leg blast premix from B&G saw someone rave about it in the OD forum. I also tried a short (8 min) Jessica Smith w/o Better Buns, Hips & Thighs. Belinda is right she is good. I like the short w/o's so I can pick them up when I can't fit in a w/o.

Belinda - Jessica has a lot of short & long workouts that look really good. I plan to try a bunch out . . . thanks! I'm happy the bunny has found a new home & your dog was just trying to protect you:)

Kristin - The good thing is the kids were outside, but I understand why you would feel the way you did. It does give your friends a better understanding on what you have to deal with:( I'm sure when her children get older they will insist their Mom takes her meds. I was nervous to drop the hoola hoop on my foot . . . image explaining that injury:eek:

Cookie - So sorry about your Uncle but happy you get to see your cousins. I feel the same way when I don't exercise, suddenly all these pains come out of nowhere:confused: Belinda's (JS) workouts ;) would be great for traveling.

Wave hi to everyone

Goodnight:)
 
'Morning!
Belinda, any news on the bunny? Deb's right: your dog was just trying to protect you from the ferocious rabbitt!.
Kristin, I'm sure your sister is jealous of you. It is so hard having someone like that in your family. Has she ever been prescribed meds?
Hi Amelia!
Deb, the workouts look good, don't they? Any interesting displays for summer?
Did total body trisets upperbody. Wow. Have no idea why I wasn't crazy about this wo before b/c it is great. Think I just don't like having to get used to a new one. But then why do I keep getting more?!! Did not sleep well and been up for a few hours. Hopefully, won't fall asleep during an evening meeting tonight.
thanks for the wishes about my uncle. It was good to see so many cousins. That part was great.

Hello ladies! I did two workouts today :eek:. During my lunch break my friend at work, who is a personal trainer, and I went into the girls gym and did one of her workouts. It was great. We focused on legs and abs. Then after dinner I did SB, premix with combos 1,2, and 3. I feel so accomplished today :).
Cookie- when my sister first was diagnosed, after having her first son and going back to work, she was seeing a therapist regularly and then went on meds. It took some time, but the meds did work and she was much better. It was the closest we had ever been, we got along so well. Then she stopped taking the meds, which returned everything back to "normal." It has been bad ever since. She lost her job for throwing a huge fit and breaking a computer. She lied to my family, but I know the truth because my friend's wife works with her. She never goes out. . . she has two kids and her husband is an enabler. He does everything so that she doesn't have to do anything. She is morbidly obese. . . it is just sad. I go from feeling sorry for her, to wanting to help her, to needing to stay as far away from her as possible. Last year she attacked my husband on facebook. She said the most hateful and hurtful things about him. It broke my heart.

Deb and Belinda- I will have to check out this Jessica Smith chick. . .

Deb- lol.. . "I broke my foot doing a weighted hula hoop workout." That would need so 'splaining, lol.

Okay, off to relax!

Hi,

I couldn't get into spin so did Cardio Coach 3 on the step machine. I have a really bad migraine I am going to give in and take medicine. I thought once I had dinner it would go away:( just made me nauseous.

Belinda - Which JS did you do today?

Kristin - Did you ever show your friend your Cathe workouts? She would probably be surprised that you did both workouts in one day:)

Cookie - I was just thinking today how I am seeing striped clothes everywhere this season. I always thought you weren't supposed to wear horizontal stripes but I guess that has changed. I like the tri-set workouts.

Waves hi to everyone

Goodnight:)
 
'Morning!
Belinda, hope you had a good day yesterday. Have you started packing already?
Waving hi to Amelia and Lori.
Wherever did Lori go?
Kristin, your bil may enable to have peace! Too bad she won't go back to dr and get on meds. My other sons really prefer to have nothing to do with the one so avoid at all costs. Even my dd who is very easy going does the same. He's doing better but years of dealing with his unpredictability wear everyone out. Somethings are hard to forgive.
Two wo in one day! What an athlete!
Deb, stripes everywhere! Not for me. Can't believe how many horizontal stripes I've noticed also. There was something else I've noticed, but darn if I can remember now. Hope your migraine is better. I had one last week but think it was due to barometric pressure and allergies.
clb this morning. I needed it. DD has been on a baking spree and almost forcefeeding us processed carbs. Meeting a friend for dinner tonight after a long day of boring meetings.
Cookie
 
Good morning,

Sorry for not checkin in yesterday. Busy day. Have to go today again, my heal spur is acting up again:mad:

Yesterday's workout was: Jessica's " Cardio core Flow + Lose your Love Handles". No Jillian Michales:rolleyes:



I will be back to catch up on personals. Happy Hump Day!
 
Good afternoon,

My PF/heal spur is back! Saw the foot doc this morning, got a cortisone shot:( I guess, no more JMBR for awhile:eek: Not happy about that! The doc said, for the next 2 weeks no high impact workouts. In 2 day's I can do low impact workouts again, if my PF/heal spur isn't bordering me a lot. Not sure, what I will do today? Jessica's workout for today, is HiiT, can't do that one today. Maybe I switch the workouts around? Or I do a XTrain UB workout? Not sure yet?

I will be back later.
 
Good evening,

I am done with Jessica's Cardio Dance Sculpt. It was low impact:D

Cookie - LOL, I will start packing this weekend. I was wondering the same about Lori and Amelia?

Kirstin - 2 workouts! You go girl! So sad about your sister. Sometimes no matter how much you wonna help them, they don't want your help. My niece reminds me off your sister.

Debbie - hope you feel better! Good job on CC#3. Love that one. Haven't done a CC in a looong time.:confused:

I will see you in the morning. Good night!
 
Hi,

I took a yoga class today. I'm so sore from the step machine even my feet:confused: Keeping my fingers crossed the roads won't be too bad tomorrow because of the rain.

My migraine went away with the meds but the downside is it has a lot of caffeine in it so it kept me up last night:rolleyes: which was why I hesitate to take it at night.

Belinda - Take care of your foot, the good thing is you'll be going on vacation soon & can rest it. Does your foot feel better right after the shot?

Cookie - The baking sounds good, funny was just looking at a baking competition show tonight (CBS) . . . dd may like it. It just gave me the urge to have something sweet;)

Kristin - Is cleaning the new house harder?

Waves hi to everyone

Goodnight:)
 
Good morning,

Today I will do Jessica's " Sunset Stretch". Need to stretch my body.

Debbie - glad to hear you feeling better. I get a lot of migraine, they are no fun. The shot takes a few day's to work, my foot feels worst since yesterday:( I can't step on my heal, it hurts. I should feel some relieve by tomorrow?

Waving Hi to everyone that follows.
 
Hi everyone. Yesterday I worked out with my friend, the personal trainer. We did her cardio and then the lifting part we did my rendition of burn sets. We both have major upper body DOMs, so it worked well. Tonight I did Yoga Relax. I was sore all over, plus I have a bit of a cold.

My sister is not talking to my parents. She told my brother (who left early and missed the "show" the day of the party) that my mother said all sorts of horrible things about my nephew (which are not true at all). My dumbass brother told my parents. . . and my mother, who is sick with Alzheimer's (forgive my spelling), is all upset now. I tried to console my mother, not sure how much of a help I am. . .

On a brighter note, we had my younger DS pre-k graduation yesterday. It was adorable. I cannot believe he will be in kindergarten in September.

Deb- keeping the house clean is a bit of a challenge. Less clutter, which is nice, but it is a chore to clean up. I love it so much though. . . I even love to clean it, lol.

Belinda- ugh with the foot again. That stinks. Take it easy. Is Sunset Stretch like yoga?

Cookie- some things are just too hard to forgive. I have forgiven my sister so many times, I am sick of it. In the past the attack was always on me. This last time when she attacked my husband. . . it just. . . I cannot describe the hurt it caused me. I don't think I will ever forgive or get over it. I am just done.

Off to relax with the hubby!

Kristin
 
Hi,

I did a quick 15 min. abs, butt & thigh Jessica Smith workout. It was pretty good didn't have much time for anything else:( The next few days are going to be really busy for me . . . need to get up early tomorrow so will make this short.

Belinda - I didn't realize it took that long to work:( Keeping my fingers crossed it kicks in but kudos on getting in your workout:)

Kristin - It's sad that you sister gets your parents upset . . . life is too short. The good thing is they have you & your brother to offset it. Wow, both boys will be in school next year! I forgot if you told us if they passed for it to be full-time Kindergarten?

Waves hit to Amelia, Cookie & Lori?

Goodnight:)
 
'Morning!
Belinda, hope it won't take a few days this time for you to benefit from the shot. Can't imagine you not being able to move and getting things done.
Kristin, some things are hard to forgive. it is so hard and few people who understand. The years are flying by with your little ones. Kindergarten!
Deb, I feel like I'm coming out of a deep fog when recovering from a migraine. What about you?
Didn't have time for a workout this morning, even with getting up at 4. Just too much work to do. Getting my hair done this afternoon, so that will be good.
Cookie
 
Good morning,

Today I will Jessica's "Barefoot Fusion walk+ Sunset Barefoot walk! I reviewed both workouts last night, looks low impact.

Cookie - me too!:D My foot is feeling much better this morning. I been stretching it a lot and resting it for the last 2 day's did the trick;) i still will keep it low impact for awhile. WOW, you getting up early! I need to get my hair done soon too. Have fun!

Debbie - glad you like Jessica's workout! She is fantastic! I really enjoy working out with her.She has a lot of short workout on youtube. I found another great youtube channel yesterday. That girl is great! Thanks, the doc said...I can do everything except high impact. I can't just sit on my butt all day long:(

Kirstin - that is so cool, your friend is a personal trainer:D Good job on your DOMS! Sunset Stretch is a nice, relaxing stretch/yoga = 20 min. I felt all stretched/relaxed afterwards. Can't believe your son is already in Kindergarden.

I will be back later.
 
Hi,

I decided on a rest day today. I needed to get up early, visited DS & did way too much driving traffic wasn't bad. I even took a nap in the car at one point while I waited for DS. My younger DS leaves tomorrow for California with his gf to visit her Grandfather & helped him out with some things too. I'm so happy I can sleep in tomorrow.

Belinda - Well you could sit on your butt all day but you would get bored quickly;) Cute name for your workout:)

Waves hi to everyone . . . any plans for Father's Day?

Goodnight:)
 
Hey girls!~ I'm back from vacation. We went to Myrtle Beach SC for 3 nights. It was fun...couple of issues with the hotel we stayed in.
