Commit to get Fit & Lean for March 2014

Good morning,

Today is a rest day! Will take the dogs for a walk this afternoon.

Cookie WOW!!! That's a lot of steps, girl! You must been moving all day long:eek: I am so glad you finally got your shipping order from CV. I think they ran out of DVD's as soon as they posted the announcement on Tuesday. I know, I didn't get Amy Bento Box Strength. Oh well!

Debbie - I am not sure if spring ever will arrive:eek: We suppose to get snow, WTH? You really getting into running. Good for you.

Kirstin - I hope you feel better soon. Get lots of rest (((HUGS)))

Amelia - good job on your workout yesterday.

Hi Kelly!

I will be back later. Have a great Sunday, everyone.
 
Hi,

Today I did P90X3 Agility. I liked the workout it was fun and sort of reminded me of Cathe's bootcamp class from the roadtrip. We watched the movie Zero Dark Thirty it was a good movie some parts were hard to understand.

Belinda - I feel bad for anyone that is getting snow & it's crazy that the storm is South:confused:, we may only get an inch. Still no shipping confirmation, maybe tomorrow.

Cookie - That is amazing!! and only in a few months time. You need to send some energy my way or pass some of those burnt calories my way;) You are going to be set for summer.

Waves hi to Kristin, Amelia, Melissa & Kelly

Goodnight:)
 
Good morning,

Workout for today is: STS M3 D34 (Back/Chest) and P90X3 Decelerator. We got like 10' of snow:mad: I had it with snow. DH and I cleaned up our yard, I am ready for spring:)

Debbie - glad you liked P90X3 Agility. Good job! Maybe you need to contact CV customer service? CV customer service is fantastic, I emailed them a few times after placing my order. You will get an email right away, fantastic customer service:D

Waving Hi to everyone that checks in today. BBL!
 
'Evening!
Belinda, ten more inches! This is the craziest winter. Hopefully, this was the last storm for you. Do you have a snow blower?
Deb, I like getting the steps in but it is beyond aggravating that my weight hasn't changed at all. Not at all. I do look trimmer and folks comment that I have lost, but not at all. Did you get snow also?
Waving hi to all who follow!
Taking today as a rest day. Feel like I'm getting another sinus infection. Did stretching today. Yesterday got the 8.4 loop in again and stretching.

Hello everyone.

I am back from the dead. Still have congestion, but I am feeling better. I finally did a workout today, which was FLexTrain. I am still not ready for cardio. I am hoping I will be tomorrow. I also took the dog for a walk. Happy that we didn't get any snow.

My parents are back from PR. They are soooo tan, I am jealous! My mom seemed to enjoy herself. She was repeating her stories a lot today though, which I cannot help but feel sad about that. :(

Work is work right now. Two weeks until testing season begins. Ugh!

Belinda- TEN INCHES!?! This is the never ending winter, I swear. Hopefully this is the very last of it! Spring has to be coming soon, hold on. Are you almost done with P90X3? Will you repeat it again?

Cookie- Everyone was getting sick around me, and I was fine. I think you are right, the stress lowered my immune system, lol. I could use an 18 mile walk to clear my head with the stress I am feeling, lol. Seriously, 18 miles, that is fantastic!

Deb- I loved Zero Dark 30. I watched it twice to get the parts I missed the first part, and I still need to watch it again. It was so interesting though how that one young girl followed her "hunch" all those years, and it was her hunch that got Bin Laden. The irony that an American womanis the reason he was taken out, I love it!

Melissa- how is school and the new guy?

Amelia- how is work and the new total gym?

Kelly- how is everything with you these days?

Okay, off to put laundry away. .. I think I can. . . I think I can. . . or maybe I'll just put it off until tomorrow ;)

Kristin
 
Good evening,

Today I started STS M3 Week 4, D34 and P90X3 Week 12. I also did Stretch Max#3.

Cookie - no, we don't have a snow blower. We need to buy one. I got my order from Collage today. Did you get yours? Oh no, on the sinus! Please take it easy, ok! Hope you feel better soon.

Kirstin - I hope Spring is just around the corner. DH had a snow day today:D That's aways great! Glad you feeling a lot better. Please, still take it easy! I will following the Bodybuilding rotation that Cathe posted awhile back. I will post the rotation tomorrow.

Good night, everyone.
 
Hi,

I took a yoga class this morning. Spent way too much time at Motor Vehicles today & didn't even accomplish what I needed to:mad:

Lucky the snow didn't make it to me.

Belinda - I emailed CV tonight so will see. I also noticed 2 are backordered but saw your post on OD & checked Mary does have them. I never ordered from her but may give it a shot. 10 inches of snow for you:( hopefully this will be the end of it & it melts really quickly!!

Kristin - I hope your feeling better. I felt the same way about the woman & Bin Laden. Today I was thinking she should be on the case of the Maylaysia case.

Cookie - I bet you are getting firm from all the steps so the scale may not be showing any loss.

Waves hi to everyone

Goodnight:)
 
Morning girls,

Im feeling a little discouraged this morning. I was hoping for a loss on the scale and its up 2lbs.:rolleyes: I decided to put it up and only weigh when I do my measurements on the 26th of every month. As of right now, im down 6lbs and im on day 35...that's more that a pound a week so Im doing just fine. :) I won't give up..I can't.

Yesterday was a total gym workout and let me tell you girls, I LOVE this machine!! I worked every muscle group until they were exhausted.

So I've got some work gossip. You guys remember me talking about the bakery manager right? She's hard to get along with. Well, the assistant has asked to be transferred out of the bakery. The Bakery Manager is moving to Florida at the end of the school year and the main cake decorator has opened is own bakery, so he's leaving. Word is that the little b*tchy donut maker will be manager. I couldn't believe my ears when I heard that...she has a horrible attitude and has a hard time understanding English. She has a very bad temper too. The store manager must be desperate. :eek: I told my husband that I wouldn't be surprised if they asked me to go back over there, which I wouldn't - I like working in the deli for now. Its a lot easier and less stressful.

Debbie-Great job on your yoga class. I will have to check out Zero Dark Thirty

Belinda-STill doing your p90x3 and STS series combo I see. Awesome job!!

Kristin- Glad your feeling better and great job on Flextrain!

Cookie-Hope your feeling better today, sinus infections can be so frustrating. I think I have one that comes and goes. How are things going?

Hello to Kelly and Melissa :)
 
Good morning girls! We have spring break this week so I actually have some time to breathe :eek: This semester is AWFUL. It's so unorganized, and because of the class cancellations due to snow, our schedule is all over the place. Two of our midterms got moved up by a week and no one told us until 2 weeks before :mad: I got really overwhelmed with everything and panicked, so I didn't do as well on my midterms as I would have liked (I borderline failed the last one and literally cried all day because I'm terrified that this reflects on my ability as a PT). Then last week I broke my pinky. The past 3 weeks have been one non-stop cry fest, so I'm glad spring break came when it did cuz I really needed some time to recharge and reorganize. At least I didn't break my finger on the hand I write with ;)

I started doing the mentor program again when I get to train kids who are at risk for diabetes and heart disease. The cool thing is, this time the parents are involved too if they want! I'm also helping with a group fitness class once a week for at-risk kids; that starts this afternoon. I'm really excited :D

Starting STS today, woohoo!!! I need some structure in my life lol ;)

Belinda, I can't believe you guys are still getting snow!! When will it end?! Stretch Max sounds amazing right now; thanks for reminding me about that one!

Cookie, the number on the scale isn't everything! That thing is evil ;) I'm sure you look awesome. How are you feeling today? Holy moly, 1M steps?!?! That is amazing!!!!! You rock!

Kristin, glad you're feeling better. I'm sorry to hear about your mom but I am glad she had an amazing time in PR. My roommate is going to Mexico tomorrow; I'm jealous! I hear ya on the stress eating at your immune system; I never get sick and I got sick 3x this year, once with a sinus infection so bad that it went down to my jaw and I was worried that my teeth were infected (tooth problems freak me out lol).

Deb, ugh the DMV could take up an entire day can't it?! I can't wait until my friend gives me P90X3; the agility workout sounds like something I would love!

Amelia, try not to get discouraged; you are doing awesome!!! Just drink lots of water and try not to obsess. I'm glad you like the TG :) LOL @ the work situation, too funny!

Waving hi to Kelly!

Have a great day girls :)
 
Good morning,

Today I will do cardio? I need to go to my ever ending dvd collection and pick a dvd I haven't done in ages:D

Debbie - I hate when my plan doesn't come together. Hope you have a better day today. I hope you will get your order from CV soon. Mary is having a huge sale next month, wait until then;)

Amelia - good job yesterday. Glad you enjoy the TG.

Melissa - sorry the semester was awful! Hope the next one will be better. I am so ready for spring.

Waving Hi to everyone that check in today. BBL!
 
Morning ladies! Man, I really need to work on my consistency. :eek: I think I'm going to start getting up in the morning and getting my workouts in then - I'm guaranteed to do it and it helps set the tone for ther rest of the day. This morning I did Imax 2 - and I really noticed some improvements since the last time I did it! And I'm super excited, we're getting our annual bonus at work on our checks on Friday (hubby and I work for the same company), and we each get to take a part and treat ourselves - so I'm investing in more Cathe DVD's!!!!! I can't wait!! You can never have enough right? :D

LOL Belinda, I have a good size collection too, and yet Cathe is the one I always gravitate to.

Melissa, holy cow you poor thing! Hoping you can catch a break soon!

Amelia, hang in there, I know it's frustrating. It seems for seeing the numbers go up on the scale has the opposite result, I end up eating more figuring, "I'm already up anyway so why not" lol And great job on losing 6 lbs!!

Hi to everyone else who follows, and have a great day!!
 
Hello, this is my first "check-in". Tuesdays are my lower body workout days, so doing STS ME Disc 12 today. Struggling a bit, as I'm still a little sore from my lower body workout last Friday. I took a break from my regular workout routine and tried CrossFit. I liked it, but just couldn't get there often enough because of the distance/time constraints, so I'm back to my at-home workouts (primarily Cathe with some P90X, Supreme 90 Day, and a Jillian Michaels dvd thrown in for variety). I did my first at-home lower body this past Friday since leaving CrossFit, and I cannot believe how sore I've been. Just goes to show how hard a dvd can work you! And of course, it was a Cathe dvd :)
 
Hi and welcome, vbrady:D This is a nice group of girls:D That's fantastic you doing Crossfit:D WTG! I love Cathe's lower body workouts, I always get a nice burn. This week is my last week of STS, I am following the Bodybuilding rotation and am also doing P90X3.Which I will be done in 2 weeks. Doesn't look like I will take my dogs for a walk today, we still have lot's of snow.

I need to get moving. BBL!
 
Good evening,

Today I did P90X3 MMX and Dancer Body w/Tracey M. I am not a ballerina, that's for sure

Kelly - nice job on IMAX2 this morning. I hear you on Cathe;)

Cookie - did you get your order yet?

Good night, everyone.
 
'Evening!
Belinda, I don't know that one from Tracey. Is it one of the Fuse ones? When will Mary have her sale? Not that I need anything... Haven't gotten my cv order yet, but did get a shipping notice. I may look at Mary's for a few of what I wasn't able to get. This would have been a great winter to have had a snow blower.
Amelia, 6 lbs! That's great! You're doing really well. I absolutely and completely abhor the scale. It just never budges for me. I know its harder with age, but this is just crazy. My only way to deal with it is to not weigh in. Occasionally, I will but it just confirms my complete dislike for it. Glad you're enjoying the TG. I was looking at it last night. Only looking tho.
Kristen, bet your parents had a great time in PR. It must be very hard to see and hear your mom repeating things. Do you think traveling affects it? I cannot wait for this school year to end.
Melissa, great to hear how you're doing, even if it has been a challenging time. The broken finger sounds really like a pain. Hope you take time this week to relax and recharge.
Kelly, Imax 2 is a toughie! Congrats on getting it in before work, that must have felt like an accomplishment. I also have to workout in the morning, otherwise it just doesn't get done. It also just seems to really set the stage for my day. A bonus and Cathe - lucky you!
vbrady, welcome, and glad to have you here. I love our group. Very supportive. How did you like CrossFit? I often thought of checking it out, but am far too chicken.
Deb, does it seem strange to be setting up for spring when it is still cold here? Just curious? How are you fitting P90x3 into your routine?
Did UY to stretch out today. Am drinking a lot of water, which of course wakes me up, which makes me tired, ... It's a cycle, what can I say? Was in meetings all day, so have to go catch up on emails. Whoever invented them, deserves a special place to suffer.
Cookie
 
Hi guys. Just finished my workout. I did X10 (hi/lo and fb circuit premix). I had to pause it a few times to blow my nose and catch my breath, lol, but I did it. I also walked Baxter for 40 minutes today. I'm feeling almost back to normal. I just wish my sinuses would clear up.

Belinda- lol at your ballerina comment. I am not graceful either, haha. I'm interested in that rotation. I took a week off from the Xtrain weights rotation because I felt that I should do some metabolic work this week being as though I had five days off. I plan on going back to Xtrain weights next week.

Deb- I cannot believe in this day and age we can lose an entire plan. HTH?!?!? I cannot imagine what those families are going through. So tragic.

Melissa- the mentor program sounds great. I am stressed with work, but I keep counting down the weeks until summer. We are getting a pool. Cannot wait! We should hang out this summer if you are not busy and still on the island. Pool and cocktails at my house :).

Amelia- interesting news about the bakery. Would they offer you the job? You could turn things around in there.

Kelly- what dvds are you planning on getting?

vbrady- welcome to the check in! Cathe's leg workouts are the best. They get in there, that's for sure!

Waving hello to Cookie.

Kristin
 
Hi,

I ran on the TM today with Cardio Coach but kept hitting the touch screen by mistake & did parts of a few Cardio Coaches:confused:

I need to get up early tomorrow so I will come back tomorrow with personals:)

Big wave to everyone!

Goodnight:)
 
Good morning,

I hope I will get D40 legs and P90X3 Eccentric Upper in today:eek:

Cookie - I think it's from her Fusion one? I have to look. What else are you looking at Mary's? I will let you know, when her sale is;) I hate when that happens. One one side they tell you to drink lot's of water, on the other you are up all night long:D What's up with that? Great job on UY yesterday.

Kristine - are you taking anything for your sinus? Or seen a doctor? Be careful with your sinus. Remember what I went through. Good job on that walk. Sounds like a good workout plan.

Debbie - don't you hate when that happens? I am sure you still got a great run in. Now I want to go for a run, but I can't:mad: I miss CC:(

Waving Hi to everyone that check in after me. I will be in DC this afternoon, so I will be back this evening.
 
Good morning! Today I have P90X plyo legs on tap; I've been doing legs 2x/week since that is my trouble zone (more like disaster zone lol). Then tonight I'm training at the Fit Families program; I can't wait!

Do any of you use the allrecipes app? It is so awesome! You put in the main ingredient you want to use and can specify if you want a vegetarian, low fat, low carb, etc meal, and even pick how quickly you want it to be ready in, and they search through the database and spit out a bunch of recipes. Last night I made this AWESOME black bean soup that was ready in 20 min. I'm addicted to this thing lol :p

Kelly, great job on IMAX 2! That is a tough one. Congrats on the bonus! Treat yourself, girl! Any DVD you have in mind? Haha I love having a bajillion Cathe DVDs because I have workout ADD; I literally need to do something different every day of every week.

Vbrady, welcome to the check-in! Wow, you must have really worked those legs hard. Are you doing the 3 month STS rotation? I've always wanted to try Crossfit; my roommate does it and he loves it, but I'm too lazy to go anywhere to workout. I got spoiled by having a home gym :eek:

Belinda, lol @the ballerina! I'm not graceful either. I can't believe you are almost done with P90X3! Have a great time in DC!

Cookie, I hear ya on not weighing in. I will weigh myself maybe once a week, that's it. LOL yes emails are a pain!! I tried so hard not to get a smartphone but from constant emails from work and professors at school and everyone expecting you to respond ASAP, I had to cave in. Sometimes I just want to get away!

Kristin, hope you're feeling better. Sinus infections are the worst. OMG pool and cocktails sounds AMAZING! Def count me in, I will be here!

Deb, LOL hey you got a nice CC mix in there ;) Nice job!

Waving hello to Amelia! Have a great day ladies!
