Commit to get Fit & Lean for March 2015

Happy Saturday. Just finished STS M1 D3, plus no equipment abs. My legs are going to be talking to me tomorrow, lol. I forgot how great the plate work is in the STS series. I like sliding down and lifting the weight.

This morning our house was pretty cold and we realized we ran out of oil. Luckily we were able to get a delivery today. We are so broke though. Our tax return is actually really good. Having the second house and renting it gave us a boost. Once we get that money we will have a nice cushion again. It takes about three weeks from when you file (e-file) so we should get it soon.

Belinda- I took your advice and lowered the weights for squats and deadlifts. Instead of lifting 30# I did 25#. I felt a good burn and I was able to complete each rep. I am almost positive that I started out with 32# as it suggested I would have really struggled to do the last few reps if I could do them at all. Nice job on your workouts.

Waving hello to everyone that follows!

Good morning,

Sorry for not checkin in yesterday. My kids are here for the weekend. Alesia left yesterday with her boyfriend, my son and his fiancé are still here. I did do 21 DF Dirty 30 and lots of walking.
Last night we went to the Casino in town. I won a $150 on the 1 cent slot machine :p

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

Kirstin - you are welcome! I always have too lower my weight in M1, now you know why I don't do the 1RM:D In M2 see how you feel with the weight and remember every week your weight will go up. I always play around with my weights in M2. 32# is way to heavy for M1, I don't lift that much in M1. M3 is a different story. Good job! (((HUGS))) hope you get the money from your renters soon. Glad you got some oil. It's a tough winter, but you need oil. We called and got some yesterday too.

Waving Hi to everyone that checks in today. BBL!
 
MMA Boxing all done. I love that workout. Felt good to do it after all this time apart, lol. It is a gorgeous day today. I am thinking about taking Baxter to the water with the family. It is 40 degrees, but I think we will all enjoy being outside for a bit.
Belinda- enjoy the weekend with your family!

Waving hello to everyone else!

Good morning,

I will do 21 Day Fix TB Cardio Fix and SBF LB today.

Kirstin - hope you had fun with your family as well. Did you went for a walk yesterday? DH and I did, it was so nice outside. Hope it stays that way!

Waving Hi to everyone that checks in today.

I will be back later today.
 
Just finished STS M1 D4. Feeling good, even though TOTM arrived yesterday. Took the day off because we finally had the meeting at the school about my son. We have a neurologist appt at the end of the month. In the meantime, they will be doing more interventions for DS to see if that helps him more. This process is a slow one and I just want to fix it!

Belinda- It's just you and me the last few days. Glad you are loving 21 day fix. My friend got great results from it. I bet you are enjoying the weather. I took Baxter for a long walk today and didn't have to wear my hat and coat. It felt good to have sunlight on my face. You could hear all the snow melting. Awesome day! I am hoping all the snow melts by the end of the week. Yesterday, I took Baxter to the beach. There were a few other people there with their dogs. He really loved it, but he wanted to be off the leash, which obviously could not happen. He still enjoyed himself though.

Waving hello to everyone else. Did you all see Cathe is doing a Road Trip at Daytona again this year?

Kristin
 
Kirstin - I took my dogs for a long walk too. I had to take my jacket off, I was hot:D Sounds like you having the same weather we got, very sunny and warm. I hope it stay's that way too. I am tired of the snow. I'll bet Baxter loved the beach. We took ours dogs for a nice, long walk. We saw a few people walking, which surprised me :) BTW, I also noticed it's just us posting lately? I haven't seen the RT announcement. Are you plan on going?

I will be back in the morning. Good night!
 
Good morning,

After my coffee I will do 21 Day Fix UB Fix and SBF UB. I will walk the dogs alter today.

I will be back later tonight, if not tomorrow. Have a wonderful day and workout everyone.
 
Didn't want to leave you alone, Belinda. No workout for me today. I went to a rally for public education. BB tomorrow
 
'Morning!
Sorry for being mia but I can't seem to be well for more than a day lately. Last week went to DC and ended up with a virus. Spent most of the time sleeping. Congestion from last week is finally breaking up but still cannot hear out of my right ear at all. Very depressing when I look at the calendar and realize how much time I've lost. DH snoring woke me up early this morning and yesterday, so I'm going to try some rebounding in a few minutes.
Belinda, you are so good at consistency. Hope you had a great time with your children this weekend. Congrats on the winning!
Kristin, glad the process for your ds is at least started. It's exhausting going thru it, esp since sitting in the meetings the focus is always more on what the negatives than the positives. Hope the interventions are successful.
Well, not many days over 10K so far this month. Planning on changing that and getting it in today. This week I have meetings every evening, but I'm really hoping to finally kick these cold/virus germs out of my system. Snow finally fell off our roof. Thankfully, I started parking my car a little further down the driveway. When snow/ice comes off a metal roof, it is very quick and rather dangerous. It would have done a lot of damage to my car if it was parked in usual spot. Unfortunately, it did take out our deck and railings on one side of the house. No one hurt tho.

Good morning,

I will do 21 Day Fix Lower Fix and SBF LB today.

Cookie - (((HUGS))) hope you feel better soon! Make an appointment with your doc, girl! Don't worry about your workouts, they will be there when you are ready. Take care!

Kirstin - thank you :) Hope you enjoy your rest day yesterday. I couldn't take the dogs for a walk, it was raining all day long.

Waving Hi to everyone that checks in today. BBL!
 
Hey everyone. I am exhausted, but I got my workout in. I did Athletic Step and STS AB Circuits, weights and plates. Today was 61 degrees out! I was so happy. After work, I picked up the dog and took him to get the boys from school. Then we all went to this park by the beach. The boys played on the playground and I walked the dog up and down the water. It was a great way to spend a late afternoon hour.

Last night I attended a rally that was protesting Cuomo's education agenda. They estimated that over 3,000 people were there. It was a great event that inspired me and gave me hope. There is another one next week that I plan to attend with my boys by my side.

Cookie- I'm sorry you are still need feeling 100%. Our follow up meeting is 4/27. If the interventions are not working by then, I will insist we get him tested and go to a CSE. At that point I will get an advocate.

Belinda- that deal with the meals looks good. I am such a picky eater though. I did not like any of those paleo bars, lol. A waste of $20.

BB tomorrow!

Hi everyone,

Sorry I have been MIA. We are having really nice weather but didn't pack for it but there is a washer & dryer so that helps. I heard you guys had great weather too today, TG!!! I'm sure Spring is around the corner. We haven't gone to the gym but have walked the beach. We did lots of visiting & took DH's godchild to the Tampa Zoo.

Great job with your workouts!!!

Belinda - Looks like you are loving 21 day fix:) It also looks like the weather is getting better for dog walking.

Kristin - You aren't allowed to let your dog off the leash for a little bit on the beach? Wow, 3,000 people is a lot to attend the rally. I'm sure you will have even more when word gets around.

Cookie - I hope you feel better, maybe the change of weather will help.

Waves hi to everyone

Goodnight:)
 
Good morning,

I will do 21 Day Fix Pilates Fix and SBF (I think it's upper body?).

Cookie - how are you doing? Hope you starting to feel better with the warmer weather.

Debbie - glad you having fun in FL with your family. I am loving 21 Day Fix workouts and eating containers. The workouts are a lot of fun. I been walking my dogs every day. Thank goodness for warmer weather.

Kirstin - from my understanding you can pick your meals :) I ordered the Hallo Fresh and every meal was amazing. The rating is very good too.

I will be back later today. Hi to everyone that checks in after me.
 
Hey everyone. I just finished STS M1 D5. First time in the series you do drop sets. . . My lats and tris were on fire. I am sooooo happy tomorrow is Friday. TGIF! All the snow is almost melted too, another plus.

Belinda- yesterday it was so warm out, I drove with my sunroof open. Today I went to work without my coat. I am loving it. Baxter is loving it too.

Deb- glad you are having a good time in Florida. I think the next event will have more of a turnout. Only three teachers in my building went besides me. When we went in to work the next day we told everyone about it and a lot of people seemed interested to go to the next one.

Cookie- Hope you are feeling better!

Kristin
 
Hi,

We have one more day left in FL, leave Saturday. So a big bear was spotted about a block from my house!! It must be getting warmer if the bears are coming out. A neighbor sent out an email with a picture couldn't believe the size of it & it was so beautiful (easy for me to say LOL). I warned the kids because could hurt small dogs.

Belinda - When I come home I'm going to try the containers too.

Kristin - I'm glad the weather finally turned! My backyard just gets so muddy so not looking forward to that.

Cookie - Hope your feeling better.

Waves hi to everyone

Goodnight:)
 
Good morning,

21 Day Fix Cardio Fix is done :)

Cookie - how are you doing? Thinking about you :)

Debbie - do you have an iPhone? I have to share this great app I wound on my iPhone with you. It makes tracking your containers soooo easy :p No paperwork! And they color coded:D The containers looks small, but you do get to eat plenty food. I have a hard time eating everything.

Kirstin - we took the dogs for a nice walk yesterday too. I am so happy the weather is getting warmer. Great job with your workout yesterday.

I will be back later today. Have a great day and workout.
 
Hi everyone! Ended up taking a rest day yesterday. I am down two pounds ;). I just finished STS M1 D6, Legs. Halfway through Meso 1 and feeling good. It was a rainy day today and I had a ton of paperwork to catch up on. Happy to say I am all caught up.

My younger DS takes hip hop dance class on Fridays. He loves it. My neighbor came with us to see him practice and then we got pizza. She hung out with us at the house and we had a few drinks. It was a fun night. That is why I ended up taking a rest day. I don't even feel guilty. I feel like I am seeing changes in my body already, if that's possible. Probably more of a result from RWH than STS at this point. . . it is finally causing a change back in the right direction.

Belinda- my friend said she had a hard time eating everything too with 21 day fix. Too funny. A friend of mine was asking me about the program. I told her I haven't done it but everyone who has only has good things to say about it.

Deb- I hope you had a good flight back. I think I would freak out if a bear was in my yard, lol. One of my favorite movies with John Candy is The Great Outdoors. "Big. . . Big. . . Big bear. . . big bear. . . big bear chase me. . . ."

Okay, I am off to shower and hopefully catch up with DH.
