Commit to get FIT & LEAN for November!

Morning girls,

Im up early for work...later will be a workout. I get off around 2:30 today so plenty of time to get it in:) Im actually looking forward to it. Will do Travel fit or Total body sculpting ( the older one) .

Yesterday I ended up getting in a nice 3 mile power walk with some ab work. I could feel my tender back with that ab work too:confused:

I will check in later this afternoon...have a great Sunday
 
Good Morning:)

Not sure what that's all about.....

Anyway, I am feeling much better today then I was yesterday morning. I'm not sure why, nothing's changed really...lol. Today I am going to do some pre packing for our trip. I can get our dress clothes ready and some other things like that. Also need to do a workout. Yesterday ended up being STS FB with no cardio:eek:. I know! I know!! I had planned on doing cardio later yesterday evening but I didn't bother. I ended up having a drink with my friend and I was so tired after!

I did a little shopping for DS yesterday. I'm almost done everyone ex my kids. I wasn't going to bother getting them anything until we got to our destination but I'm gonna buy DSa few things. I had the boys pics taken yesterday and it was in the photographers home. DS played with this little house the who,e time we were there so when we came home I ordered him one. So that's 3 things now.
Not much but a start.

Ameila** at least you have the inventory over and done with. I guess you could look at it that way!

Deb** it's always nice to have meat in the fridge, ready to eat. Not that I've been doing that lately. I'm lucky if I even make dinner these days! DD is going through her no meat phase. She likes to pretend she doesn't like meat until she smells McDonalds! Lol

Cookie** I don't feel organized these days but I should make a list of the things that need to be done around here. But really there is no rush. We are out on the 7th but we have a little time to get someone in to look at the stove and a light downstairs. DD also wants her dress altered:confused:. I'm not sure if we will have any luck with this much short notice.

Belinda** I've never had an issue with eBay. Oh wait...there was one time I ordered something and I didn't get it. We just moved in here and our old email address was disconnected...anyway...there was just to much work involved to figure out what happened to my order. But everyone who sells, wants to have a good rating so they don't rip you off. I just him a couple of toys. Nothing crazy.

Kristin** ha! I have no clue what dec's rotation will be either considering I won't have any of my workout gear for a while. I don't think the hotel we will be staying in is that high up! Probably doesn't even have a gym....short term pain.

I may bbl!

Lori:)
 
Morning girls,

Yeah, not sure what that's all about......someone is posting all over the forums.

Cookie - Alesia and I, love High & Tight so much that we bought the set. We love the leg workouts, those will get you good. You use bands. You will feel your butt the next day. lol. Hope you had fun with your friends. You still having prblems with sleeping? Me too. Going to a sleep study on Tuesday, to figure out what's wrong?

Debbie - I am on D20 W3 today. I am starting week 4 on Monday. I will finish up STS first before I start another rotaiton. I will do 2 extra high & tight and bum bun a week. Love the short workouts.

Lori - I also did some shopping yesterday. Still need to find some gifts for DH, our Anniversery is coming up?? On ebay I am always afraid to buy bootlegged dvds.

Amelia - good job on your 3 mile walk. I keep forgetting about TF, need to pull that one out.

Today I will do D20 legs and abs.

Have a wonderful day and workout, girls. BBL.
 
 
Hey girls,

workout done, decided on total body sculpting and it felt good. :)

ok, off to take a shower -I'm off work the next two days and thank goodness because I'm exhausted:confused:

I will chat more in the morning:)
 
Happy Sunday everyone. DH and I went to the furniture store today. We need a new couch and bedroom set. Our bedroom set is DH's from when he was a single guy living at home. We never replaced it and I am sick of looking at it now. Our bedroom is so tiny, we are just looking for the headboard and dresser. My brother and future sis-in-law watched the boys for a few hours, so we were able to do this all on our own, without kids. It was heaven, lol. We were looking at little dinette sets too, because ours is pretty worn out, but all in due time, lol.

Anyway. . . today's workout was MMA KB and TB, third premix. My legs will be fried tomorrow!

Amelia- enjoy the two days off, you deserve it!

Belinda- Almost done with M2!!! Good for you. How long have you and DH been married?

Lori- you are ahead of me with the Christmas shopping. My older DS wrote his letter to Santa today, lol. My younger one is waiting for me to help him write his.

Deb- I hear you on the cleaning. Although DH did do the dishes this morning. Of course, he left the dish drain filled, which I hate :mad::p:confused: I hate cleaning over and over again, which is what I do when I am home with two little boys, lol.

Cookie- Funny you metioned the Rockwell Thanksgiving. My dad's family was anything but when he was growing up, and I think that is why he was the one who usually started to lose it before company came over.

Good night!
Kristin
 
Good morning,

I never got my leg workout in yesterday. My anniversary (29 years) is coming up this week. My son told me my husband went all out to get me something on Saturday, I was stressing after he told me! So I was looking online for gifts for DH. Believe me it's getting harder to buy something for him. At first I looked at Amazon for a nice watch, I found one. Than I had the idea to look online for the same watch on AAFFES. com (military shopping). Guess what? They had it for $400 cheaper, so I ordered the watch, only to find out it will not arrive for the next 2 weeks after I saw it on my email, WTH? . So I called to see if they could sent it express, they couldn't! So I cancelled it! It didn't do me any good, right? What's the point to give DH a gift 2 weeks after our Anniversary? Than I had the idea to call every PX in the DC area. Fort Belvoir is a huge PX, they had the watch. and it was even another $300 marked down, hallo! So we drove 1.5 hours to Fort Belvoir, ended up picking more stuff up for DH and son for xmas, lol. The watch is so nice, I can't believe I got it for that price. I guess, after all I shopped on Black Friday, lol. I had no energy to work out after I came home. So today I will do D 20. Tomorrow I will start W4 of STS.

Kirstin - Aleisa was looking for furniture (couch, dinning roon table) this weekend, she found a nice coutch in Macy's w/free shipping from Martha Stewart. The table she found online. She ordered the table on Saturday and it will be here on Wednesday. Did you find a couch/headbord?

Amelia - you are doing great with your workouts this week. Keep it up!

I will be back to report my workout.

Good afternoon,


I just finally did D20 and 10 abs. Tomorrow I am back on schedule;)



I need to get a shower than off to dog training. Today we are taking all 4 dogs, that are to be interresting:confused:
 
Hi ladies. Today's workout was TTM premix without compound legs. My legs are very sore from TB yesterday, lol.

Belinda- we are still looking. I want to hit a few other stores before we make a decision. 29 years! Wow! I am ready to ring DH's neck these days. How do you get to 29 years without killing him? I'm joking. . . but not really ;).

Okay, off to rest!

Kristin
 
Hi,

I did B&G yesterday & I have DOMS already. I didn't have time to workout ended up shopping after work & found things online I couldn't find in the store. TG for online shopping and even better when it's free shipping. I'm not sure if you girls use ebates but they give you money back when you order through them.

Belinda - That is a really good deal for DH's watch!! Wow, 29 years you have us beat . . . that's amazing. I'm going to pull out High & Tight because I need shorter workouts these days:)

Lori - No cardio:p The one good thing for you is when your at the hotel all you'll need is your running shoes;) They may have a DVD player in the room . . . travel fit is a good one (only bands).

Kristin - My bedroom set is too matchy, matchy & 80's style one of these days I would like to update. It must have been fun looking. My friend was able to get good deals at furniture outlet stores.

Amelia - Kudos getting your workouts done. Are you still using fitbit?

Cookie - Have you recovered from Thanksgiving?

Goodnight:)
 
I have a few minutes to spare this morning. . . a rarity :).

Deb- I've never been to an outlet store for furniture. There is one by the mall. I'll definitely take a look there, thanks for the suggestion.

Lori- I wanted to add to Deb's suggestions. Travel Fit with the bands is obviously great. All you need is the band, so that is convenient. I also think Slide and Glide is good to take because you need only the band and the discs. Cardio Supersets for the same reason, you would just need to bring 8# DB, which isn't that bad. Maybe the MMAs with weighted gloves?

Okay, hi ho hi ho, it's off to work I go :)

BBL

Kristin
 
Good morning,
 
Dog training went well last night. We are taking the dogs tonight again.
 
I have an doc appt before lunch. Hoping to get D22 in today, if not I will do it tomorrow. Maybe I will do a short low impact cardio workout today?

Cookie - how are you doing? Hope your foot is doing a little better.

Kirstin - I love shopping in outlet stores for furniture. Costco has a lot of furniture on sale. You sure enjoy TTM, hah? Good job yesterday. Trust me am ready to ring DH's neck this days too. LOL!

Debbie - I thought so too! Can't beat the price on the watch. I love High & Tight. Bum Bum is only 30 min too. Good job on B&G yesterday.
 
 

I will be back after my appointment. Have a great day, girls.

 
 
 
 
Hey girls, Just finished a 2 & 1/2 mile interval walk then Power hour w/Cathe. I had to skip the back work and modify the leg work ( just used body weight) and I still got a good burn:)

My backs feeling better, I can still feel little hints of pains every now and then so im going to take it easy for a while until those go away.

Belinda-Glad to hear the dog training is going well. How was your workout?

Kristin-How are the doms today?

Deb-I've heard of ebates but never viewed the site yet, think I will now. Nice workout. I quit using my fitbit and sold it on ebay, I just got tired of messing with the thing:eek: I almost dropped in the toilet at work one day then It slid down my pants and I almost stepped on it so after that I was done.:confused:

Hello to Cookie and Lori.

Have a great night.

Hi everyone. Just finished PUB. My chest should have DOMS for a few days, lol. I find it so hard to do the ab work after, because you have to use your arms for a lot of the moves, lol. My arms are so fried, I can hardly keep that 8 # DB up while doing those side twists on the ball, lol.

Not much else to report. Just feeling a bit tired.

Belinda- what kind of training do your dogs get? Is it obedient school or something like that or is it to train them to be good guard dogs?

Amelia- Good job getting in a workout. DOMS in the legs are gone. . . upper body is next ;)

Okay, I am off to rest my eyes.

Kristin
 
'Evening!
Belinda, when is your anniversary? We'll be 32 years in April. How did dog training go? That must have been interesting with all four dogs. How do you manage that? Please tell me more about the sleep thing you did today. I got about three hours sleep again last night. It makes me so worn out, and then my energy for working out is depleted.
Lori, The photo sounds like a great memory. One of my son's has said he doesn't eat meat for about 15 years now. However, he eats more processed junk than anyone I know! What no cardio?
Kristin, a few extra minutes in the morning is a real rarity for you. Do you save the letters your sons write to Santa? Now that mine are grown, it is fun to reread theirs. I would love two new sofas in our big room. DH wants leather but I think they'll be too cold. Oh well, not happening this year anyway. Did you find anything you like?
Amelia, oh no! I got my shipping notice from fitbit. I'm hoping it will be a motivator, since I love gadgets. Nice workouts lately.
Deb, bet you are sleeping well with all the running around you do. Great suggestions on the workouts and furniture shopping. You also seem like an organized person. Are you a list maker?
Yoga and a walk today. I feel like I'm perpetually tired. Having a glass of wine. Hoping that and yoga will help me sleep better.

Hi Girls:)

Late checkin for me. Every time I went to checkin someone would call.

Yesterday's workout was ctx UB and 4 miles on the TM. Today was 20 mins on the TM, 40/20 and GS standing leg work. I'm not sure what tomorrow will be. A good UB weight workout I'd say and I'd like to go for a long run b/c Thursday will be a rest day cause we will be traveling. I pretty much have our bags ready to go. Just the last minute things need to be put in.

So the people who looked at the house last week came by again yesterday. I gave up hope cause they looked at more houses last night. But the real estate agent called today and they want to look at the house again tomorrow! 3rd times a charm. They have it narrowed down to 3 houses...fingers crossed!

Belinda** that was a pretty sweet deal on the watch! Lucky you! I bought a couple of DVDs on eBay once and there is def something odd about them. It was a long time ago now though. If it happened now I would def report it.

Kristin** it's to bad you don't live closer cause I'm getting rid of some of my furniture. I can't take it all cause I have no where to put it! Did you find anything?

Deb** I don't have travel fit. I think I am going to take hitt and a kickboxing DVD. Nice job on the sales!

Ameila** good job on the workout!

Cookie** that wine should help you sleep. I was hoping to get in the hot tub tonight but I'm not really in the mood now. I think I'll get in bed and watch some modern family!

Hope I got everyone!!! Bb in the a.m!

Lori:)
 
Hi,

It snowed here but it was pretty on the trees but the roads were messy. One good thing not too much traffic. Tomorrow I'm going to NY Macy's so the girl their can show me the in's & out's since there has been a lot of changes before she leaves for vacation in a couple of weeks. I may even go see Santa;)

I did slide & glide tonight.

Belinda - Is this the Dr. for your foot? I'm going to pull BBL for tomorrow.

Lori - It sounds promising for your house, keeping my fingers crossed. Kickboxing & Hiit are good choices too! You did lots of w/o's are you still having a bet with DH?

Kristin - Even though PUB is an older w/o it is a tough workout!

Amelia - Funny story about your Fitbit . . . sounds like me with my phone:eek:

Cookie - Wow, that's a long time to be married too! I think my one DS may have your son beat with the junk food, my other DS hardly ever has any. I'm not organized, I try but need to wing it & go to plan B or C all the time:) I hope you get a good night sleep tonight.

Goodnight:)
 
Good Morning:)

Up before the kids...imagine that! But I have a feeing the baby will be up any minute now. I've been trying to figure out how I could rearrange his naps today so he will go to bed earlier tonight b/c we have a early rise but I don't think that's even possible. I'm just going to have to wake him up by making noise and he should sleep on the first leg.

My parents are suppose to be coming in today. If they do, I will probably go for a run. I also have a couple of other things that need to be done as well but come to think of it, I might be able to get my mil to do one of them. I also want to do a good UB weight workout....I'm just not sure which one.

Deb** I think we have snow in the forecast too. I do know that we are going where there is snow. I'm so thrown for a loop when it comes to foot wear for this trip. I have 3 dressy things to go too, my workout stuff and dh wants to go out Friday night. So I am thinking the long boots I am wearing on the flight will have to do for most of it. I still haven't tried slide and glide yet. I loaned the low impact series to my friend and she's tried almost all of them and love them.

I will try to come back later and check in! Everyone cross their fingers and say a pray for my viewing today!

Lori
 
Morning girls,

If I do a workout it will be after work.

Cookie-You will love the fitbit, its a great motivator! Specially when you log in and see the graph the site provides. It displays all the activity for the day. You can pinpoint what you did at any particular moment that got your HR up. Its awesome.... I didn't mean to discourage you about it:eek: I just don't have much patience these days:confused: I've been thinking about buying the new Zip from fitbit. Its smaller and is suppose to be a little cheaper.

Deb-Snow is so pretty, we don't get a lot of it down here. Give Santa a hug for me ( and tell him I want STS or a new Coach bag,k :p)

Lori-Busy day for you! Have a nice run later. My fingers are crossed!!:)

Kristin-Love PUB! Nice job on PUB yesterday! I love that fried feeling after weights. I felt it a little bit after doing PH yesterday...

Hello to Belinda!

ok, off to get ready for work.
 
Morning girls,

Never got a workout in yesterday, arrr....my workouts are all over the place this week:mad:

The dog traing is taking up most of my time. We are going again tonight. The dogs lerning a lot. I am happy! The dog trainer is amazing, he knows what he is doing.

Cookie - wine doesn't help me sleep. I am trying to stay away from taking sleeping pills. I told the doc yesterday, I think it's my husband with his snorring that keeps me away. I need to do a sleep study soon (she was goona do it this week Thursday or Friday ) I don't have time this week and I don't want to be to tired on my anniversary on Saturday, lol! I think I get about only 3 hours sleep too? Can't sleep! I am always tired, lol. My anniversary is on Saturday. Wow, 32 years in April:D. That's fantastic! Do you have any special plans?
 
Amelia - you have a fitbit? Yesterday I was looking at them on amazon, the onces you clip on your cloth. Tell me more about it!

Lori - wow, you got a lot going on today. Good luck keeing the baby awake today:p. I am sure you will fit all your workout in today. LOL! I haven't bought anything from ebay in ages. Just don't trust it.

Debbie - yesterday I saw a doc for a sleep study, having problems sleeping for over a year now? Next week I will see a doc for my foot. I can't hardly keep up with all those appointments. LOL. It snowed here a little, thank goodness it didn't stick. Keep it all:eek:

Kirstin - it's a obedient school for dogs. He is a K9 Master trainer. He trains police dogs/guard dogs..you name it. Good job yesterday, girl. When my son moved in with his dog, all my other dogs changed:( not in a good way.

Happy Hump Day, everyone. BBL!
 
Morning girls,
Never got a workout in yesterday, arrr....
The dog traing is taking up most of my time. The dogs lerning a lot. Which is good.
Heidi - thanks for asking about my foot/back. DS and I will see a doc for the foot next week. Yesterday I had a sleep study appt. Can't sleep at night? My back isn't bordering me as much lately, since I lowered my weights. Go figure! Good job on your DOMS. I feel like everything is getting in my way these days too. Need to start my workouts after my coffee.
Sherry - hope you feel better. Hate headaches. The dog only stayed at the trainers 2 weeks, he is home. Now we have to keep up the training. Yeah, it's a lot going every day, but it's worth it. The dogs lerning a lot, so are we, lol.
Need one more cup of coffee. Than off to get moving.
Happy hump day, everyone!
