Commit to get Fit & Lean for March 2015

Good morning,

21 DF Dirty 30 is done :)

Cookie - how are you doing? Been thinking about you.

Waving Hi to everyone that checks in after me.

I will be back tomorrow. DH and I will go floor shopping. Need to replace all the carpet in our house.
 
Hey everyone. Well, we got snow here yesterday. At least 4 inches. I still went to picket at the Senator's office, and I froze my ass off, lol. I was still shivering and my feet were still cold an hour after I got home. Needless to say, I ended up taking a rest day yesterday. There is another rally in NYC at the Governor's offices there on Saturday. I am trying to see if I can make it to that one.

Anyway, STS M! D9 completed. My legs are wobbly right now.

Took my boys to a friend's son's first birthday party. She had a DJ there and they played games and danced. The boys had a good time, and should sleep well tonight, lol.

Belinda- It was funny. There were cops at the protest. Like parents and teachers are going to get violent, lol. It was pretty funny.

Deb- It feels good to stand up against this nonsense, I will tell you that. I am standing up not only for myself and my job and my dignity, but I am also standing up for my own two boys' and all of my students, especially those with IEP's (special education students). It is enough already. Do you know that all those hispanic kids that were allowed in and sent to some of our Long Island school districts are required to take the tests? and in English? and it will count for their teachers' evaluations? It would be a joke if it was not the truth.

BBL,

Kristin
 
Hi,

Yesterday I took a hot yoga class. The snow wasn't too bad but is still around & messy:( I decided to take a rest day today went to bed late last night. Unfortunately our basement has water because the sump pump sprung a leak:(

Belinda - The dirty 30 looks like fun! Did your carpet get ruined?

Krsitin - There seems to be so many reasons to protest about the test, it is crazy that the test scores go towards your evaluation! It was so cold on Friday.

Cookie - How are you feeling?

Waves hi to everyone

Goodnight:)
 
Good morning,

Today I will do 21 DF Yoga Fix and a walk.

Debbie - the carpet are 10 years old. Time to replace them, plus I don't like carpet. We looking into hardwood floor. Easier to clean and taking care off. Oh no..about the leak :(

Kirstin - yesterday we had sunshine, didn't even needed a jacket. Nothing wrong with having a cap at the rally:p some parents take it to far. Glad the rally was peaceful yesterday. Hope you warmed up.

Waving Hi to everyone that checks in after me. BBL!
 
Hey guys. Today's workout was RWH Plyo Hiit 2, plus bonus abs 2. I love that workout. Had to take DS to his baseball practice because DH was working today. I am tired and I still have papers to grade and a house to clean and I do not want to do either, so I am procrastinating here with you instead, lol.

Belinda- lol. Parents do take it too far at times, especially with sports games, lol. I sometimes feel I am the only sane one in the stands at DS's baseball games.

Deb- that stinks with your basement. Hopefully nothing got ruined.

Waving hello to Cookie!

Kristin
 
Good morning,

21 DF TB Cardio is done. I am in week 5 :) Still loving the workouts.

Cookie - where are you? Hope all is well.

Kirstin - I don't get why parents don't get more involved with their kids activities? Very sad. My husband and I went to very game with the kids. Hope you got your paper and house done yesterday :)

Waving Hit to everyone that checks in after me. BBL!
 
Hi everyone! Just finished STS M1 D10. My shoulders and biceps are fried for sure. I am very excited for tomorrow. My parents come back home! I am chaperoning a field trip after school, so I may not get to see them tomorrow, but DH and my DSs will see them. My mom's birthday was March 7th, so my younger DS and I went to the store today to pick out some presents for her and wrapped them. He was so happy to pick out a bracelet for her. Very sweet.

Belinda- My house is still a mess. I need a cleaning lady, lol. When things got very hectic and we were in the tiny house, I had a cleaning lady come very two weeks. I am contemplating having someone do that again. However, I do not know how that would work with the dog. It could be a problem. Unless I have her come when I am home. That could work.

Waving hello to Deb and Cookie!

Hi,

Yesterday I cooked a sauce all day but at I will use part of it for Easter so that will make it easier. Today I took a yoga class & walked on the track at the gym for 15 min. It was cold today but I bought tulips when I went to the food store so that helped:)

Belinda - I'm finally starting the eating plan tomorrow! Wow the 5 weeks flew by happy you are liking the workouts.

Kristin - The other day when I passed our local ball field it was covered in snowo_O hopefully it is melted by now! It must be exciting your parents are coming home.

Waves hi to everyone

Goodnight:)
 
Good morning,

Today I will do 21 DF Upper Fix and SBF. My workout has to wait until later, I have a doc appointment this morning.

Kirstin - I would get a cleaning lady in a heart beat:p The only problem they too much money here in the DC area:( Glad your parents are coming home soon.

Debbie - have fun with the eating plan today. It's easy to use. I still like the 21 DF workouts, they are fun. You should give them a try.

Waving Hi to everyone that checks in today. BBL!
 
Hi girls,

21 DF UB Fix is done.

Cookie - thinking about you. How are you doing?

I will be back tomorrow. Have a great day and workout everyone.
 
Hi,

I didn't get a workout in but walked a lot today. My basement is drying up didn't look to see what is damaged yet but maybe it will force me to clean up things I don't need.

Belinda - I added extra food I was pretty hungry. I'm hoping since I'm active it won't matter. I put the book in the mail today you should receive it in a couple of days.

Kristin - Do you have Spring break before or after Easter? All the towns around here are different.

Cookie - I hope your feeling better.

Goodnight:)
 
Good morning,

Plan for today is: 21 DF Lower Fix and SBF. Mary form Totalfitnessdvds.com is having a Spring Sale starting this Friday:D Thought I pass it along:p

Debbie - as long as you eating clean eating extra food won't matter :) Thanks in advance about the book :D

Waving Hi to everyone that checks in after me. BBL!
 
Hi,

Today I finally started Meso 2 Disc 13 Chest, shoulders & tri's. Ugh, 2 of the Macy's I am thinking about giving up before Christmas were such a mess almost wanted to stop today LOL!

Belinda - It looks like it is just the 2 of us:) It seems like I'm using the containers like measuring cups but it did make me realize I prefer carbs!

Hope everyone is ok

Goodnight:)
 
Good morning,

I will do 21 Day Fix Pilates today. Yesterday I had over 20K.

Debbie - I agree!! Where is everyone? Debbie the first few day's I was very hungry, like you I ate way to many carbs:) I also eat way to many healthy fats, like nuts and avocados:( I made the egg salad for my husband the other day and he really liked it:D He didn't miss the mayo.

I will be back later. Have a wonderful day, everyone.
 
Good morning,

21 DF Pilates is done :) I walked 20K yesterday:p I was beat last night:( I doubt I will aim for 25K any time soon:D

Have a great day, everyone.
 
Debbie - from the bottom of my heart THANK YOU :D You really made my day. And it looks like the original book:) WOW! Can't believe you went through all that trouble making it pretty:D It looks nice:D You are amazing. Please, say THANK YOU to your husband too. Glad to read about the wine:p
 
Hi all! Sorry I didn't check in the last two days. I've been running around. I just finished X10 Low Impact, and then STS M1 D11, Back and triceps. My triceps are shaking right now. Crossback kickbacks have always been the hardest for me. I wasn't sure I'd be able to do them today, but I did every rep. I was very happy. Tuesday and Wednesday ended up being rest days. Tuesday I chaperoned an after school field trip to Lazerland. It was soooo much fun. They have dodge ball and a lazertag park. I played with the kids, lol. Lazer tag was my favorite. I came in third place, lol. My principal heard I came in third place and made an announcement about it over the loudspeaker the next day. All my students from last year were congratulating me. Too funny. Wednesday I went out to dinner with my parents and then I just felt too tired to do anything. Tomorrow is going to be hectic. I have to take one DS to hip hop dance and then the other has his first game in this weekend's tournament at 6. Saturday I am taking a train into the city. There is a protest/rally taking place at Cuomo's midtown office and I plan to be there for that. I am going with my friend. She teaches science. Because my older DS has a baseball tournament, my younger DS will probably have to come with me. After the rally we will walk around and get a late lunch/early dinner. With everything going on the next two days, I want to make sure I get my workouts in. I have D12 legs to do and then I am done with M1.

On another note. . . the liner in my pool is torn and so now we need a new liner. The damn pool isn't even a year old. The warranty supposedly doesn't cover it. DH is calling the company to see what they can or will do for us. Ridiculous!

Deb- Spring break is from April 3 to the 12. We return on the 13th, and then after having over a week off, the students take the state tests. how ridiculous is that timing?

Belinda- the cleaning lady charged $75 for an every other week cleaning. That was for my tiny house. I bet this house would be at least $100-$125, but I cannot keep up with it. Between work, the boys's schedule and my schedule, I feel like my house is never really clean. I get disgusted. Maybe over break I will look into it.

Waving hello to Cookie! Hope all is okay!

Kristin
 
Hi,

Today I took a yoga class. I can't wait to have off tomorrow, hope to catch up on so many things or at least organize to make things easier. Tomorrow we are going out for ds's graduation which was last June but for one reason or another didn't celebrate offically.

Belinda - The book came out better than I expected. I'm happy you are enjoying it:) Wow, 20K is great!!!

Kristin - You have so much going on you really need Spring break. Crazy that the pool liner isn't coveredo_O hopefully it can be resolved.

Waves hi to everyone . . . come back;)

Goodnight:)
 
'Morning! Sorry for having been mia for a while but honestly, I just haven't been feeling well. Finally, feel like I might be on an upswing.
Belinda, congrats on the 20K! Did you select your flooring? I can feel yours and Deb's enthusiasm for 21 day thru your comments.
Kristin, how sweet about your ds getting your mom a bracelet. Do you think your brother is complaining also because this isn't how he wants things to be with your mom? Love how you've been at the rallies. All new immigrants must take the math, but they have to be in country one year and one day before the ELA. Even those who are refuges and have had interrupted schooling. It seems schools that are more suburban have higher opt-out rates. Many urban worry about not having 95% tested b/c of ayp - w/o that number they won't make it. We used to have a housecleaner for a while when the kids were young, and she also exercised our dogs while she was here! Unfortunately, we had to cut back due to too many kids and tuitions.
Deb, glad you were able to replace the car but that's not fair on the insurance. Hope your ds and everyone enjoyed the celebratory dinner. How's your father doing?
Hoping to make it to the store for new sneakers this afternoon and finally get back on the wagon tomorrow.
