Commit to get FIT & Lean for November!!

'Morning!
Belinda, I should clean instead of going to workout, but then as I've told my dh I'm not a true German hausfrau, just the imposter!
Deb, I'm quite sure you're going to enjoy UY! Yesterday's yin had these 3-5 min holds that I never would have thought I'd do, let alone like. Today's detox. Not sure that that one involves yet. Hope you can take tomorrow off.
Going to do UY.

Good morning,

Today my rotation calls for Xtreme Kickboxing, abs and buns. Chris has you do Xtreme Kickboxing 4 times a week and work your abs almost every day. Instead of doing the Xtreme KB workout, I will mix in TF/or other Kickboxing workouts. I don't want to burn out on her KB workout.

Cookie - lol, about the Hausfrau:D That's funny! Have fun with your yoga workout.

Debbie - wow, that's a lot of people quitting the first day:eek: I love Chris Freytag's rotation, nice mix of workouts.

Happy Birthday, Amelia!

Waving Hi to Melissa and Kirstin.

I shall return. Have a great day, ladies!

I am back:

I did Turbo Fire 45, Turbo Fire Core = 10 min and 10 Min Solution Butt Lift.

I am a sweaty mess!

Waving Hi to everyone that checks in after me.

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

Today I took a yoga class. I didn't get everything done I needed to do but I'll push it to next week. I need to get new tires tomorrow, it's time & want to do it before the dreaded "snow" comes :) Even though the weather is going to be in the 60's this weekend, yes!!

Belinda - Is Chris's x-treme kickboxing on you-tube? Great job with your workouts!

Cookie - Detox sounds interesting, hope you enjoyed:)

Kristin - I hope this week flew by for you & you survived.

Amelia - Enjoy your day and enjoy dessert!

Melissa - The next couple of weeks must be tough for you, but almost break time.

Goodnight:)
 
Good morning,

Up early:confused: Plan today is: cardio and abs.

Debbie - yes, it is! Good job with the yoga last night.

Waving Hi to everyone that checks in today. Going to DC today. I will be back this evening.
 
Morning girls,

I manage to get in a 30 min power walk yesterday, not sure about today. TTOM is here for me so feeling kinda blah :confused:

Have any of you read The Body Fat Solution by Tom Venuto ? I'm going to check it out at the library and see if it can help me get out of this funk im in.:(

Thanks for the b-day wishes.

Belinda-Your rotation sounds fun, have a great time in DC today.

Debbie- Great job on your yoga class. Im waiting for my paychecks to start rolling in again and I will join that gym down the street. (everytme I read about your gym classes im reminded to get my but back to the gym)

Cookie-Good Morning, hope you have a great TGIF today.

Hello to Kristin & Melissa!

So lately I've been thinking about keeping that lower paying job as a second part-time job. Its very easy and requires little energy, lol. I asked the manager if she would care if I worked 2 nights a week with her and she said it was fine - to just let her know. And if I do decide to work a second job that money won't be touched but put back as savings. Smart huh ;)

Have a great Weekend girls. I will bb tomorrow :)
 
Hey girls,

I am already in DC, got here very early 6 a.m. It only took us 1:10 min. Which is amazing time. After I had coffee at DD's house , I did my workout. I just got done with my workout. I did Turbo Fire 60=60 min and 10 Pounds Slim Down Recovery Core.

Amelia - that's smart:D Glad you got it all figured out. Are your kids feeling any better today? Hope you had fun yesterday.

HI to everyone that checks in after me.

I will try to be back later this afternoon/evening. If not, I see you all tomorrow morning. Have a wonderful day/workout.
 
'Evening!
Belinda, are you visiting your DD in DC? you sure are on a kickboxing roll.
Amelia, Happy Birthday! Hope it is a great one. You are a good juggler and get many things done. It would be nice if you could save the income from the second job, if you take it. Good luck with your decision.
Kristin, TGIF! Hope the week went well for you.
Melissa, are you able to take a break this weekend? When are your exams?
Deb, I'm surprised with how much I'm really enjoying UY.
Did some kettlebell work this morning and Cathe's ab wo. Went to dinner with friends tonight. That was great!
Cookie
 
Hi,

Today was a rest day for me. Too much running around. I need to start thinking about Thanksgiving prep. Just heard on the news that the turkeys will be smaller this year because they had trouble gaining weight:confused: well not the case here:eek: I need to find out their secret.

Belinda - Hope your having fun in DC. It's great that you get your workout in too!

Amelia - The 2nd job sounds good especially with the holidays coming soon. I also need to get out of a funk, I need to plan my workouts & have a better chance of getting them done.

Cookie - Whenever I do kettlebell workouts I wonder why I don't do them more. Have fun with your friends tonight:)

Waves hi to Kristin & Melissa

Goodnight:)
 
'Morning!
Up early since I couldn't sleep. Have read the paper, reading on Internet and am now going to do a yoga wo. Have two workshops to do today and a presentation. Then a hockey game. Hope I can stay awake all day.
Deb, there is something about swinging that makes it fun. Crazy.

Good morning,

Today I will do cardio plus 10 Bonus Abs.

Cookie yes, I was visiting Alesia while DH had a business meeting in DC. After DH got off work, we went to Tyson Corners for some shopping:D Had to buy new workout shoes, realized while working out that my shoe is broken. I wore them out:eek: Had a really great time. Glad you had fun yesterday.


Debbie LOL, me too! So this year we getting a skinny turkey:p Aleisa's apartment is huge, no problem getting my workout in. BTW, Aleisa, my son and his girlfriend moving into a bigger apartment in Dec. They already signed the contract.

Hallo to Kirstin, Melissa and Amelia!

I will be back after my workout. Have a wonderful weekend.
 
Back to report my workouts:

I ended up doing Turbo Fire EZ45 again and Charlene Extreme Abs! My son's gf did Turbo Fire with me, it was her first time doing it:p:eek::p


Have a fantastic day, everyone.
 
Well I survived the week without DH. It was a crazy week too. My grades were due and then this training I did has turned into an opportunity for me to teach a 2 in-service credit class for teachers, so I was working on that, the dog got sick and everything in between. I managed to work out four times this week though, not bad (today being one of the days). Today I did Xtrain Chest back and shoulders burn sets and then legs (disc 5, standing only). DH and I are going out to dinner with friends, so I have to jump in the shower and get ready. I promise I will catch up with personals tomorrow.

Kristin
 
Hey girls! I wound up taking an unplanned rest week this past week. I only worked out 2 days UGH. Oh well, I feel nice and relaxed so I'm ready to go back at it tomorrow! I decided to take a break from logging what I eat and just pay attention to when I'm hungry; I found myself obsessing over calories and numbers, and I really think it was throwing off my efforts at losing weight. It sounds weird, but I tend to do better when I pay more attention to what my body's telling me rather than focus on a # goal.

This weekend I went up to see my parents. Yesterday we saw Gravity in 3D (it was AMAZING) and then went out for sushi. Today my brother is coming over for dinner and then I'm heading back to the island.

Kristin, sounds like you had a crazy week but you made it through! Awesome job getting those workouts in despite everything that was going on! And congrats on getting the teaching opp!! You must be so excited :D Have fun at dinner tonight.

Belinda, LOL what did you son's gf think of TF? I love introducing new people to my workouts. I remember when my friend did 40/20 with me; she was ready to die haha. But she loved it.

Cookie, wow you have a busy day ahead too! How did everything go? did you get a chance to take a nap?

Deb, lol at the skinny turkeys. I'd like to know their secret too! I feel like I just keep getting plumper and plumper. :p

Amelia, the second job sounds like a good idea! Congrats on that!! I've heard really good things about that book but I haven't read it myself.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend, girls!
 
'Evening!
Belinda, not surprised you wore your sneakers out! How does TJ compare to KPC?
Amelia, I should reread that book! Okay, I never read it all the way thru, just parts, so reading the whole thing would be a good idea.
Melissa, I heard Sandra Bullock is really terrific in that movie. Hope you enjoyed today.
Kristin, you made it! Hope everything calms down now. How was dinner last night?
Deb, lol at the turkey comment. Wonder why they're not gaining weight.
Survived yesterday and today got in a 3 mile walk and more yoga. I'm really enjoying it, plus it is definitely helping my joints feel good. Didn't get much done around the house this weekend at all, nor paperwork. Still have to get my logs, calendar, and materials ready for the week.

Hi,

I took today as a rest day. DH & I went to dinner last night & I felt tired all day. I did manage to get somethings done to prepare for Thanksgiving. I'm going to try & prepare lunch this week so I don't skip meals.

Belinda - It must be nice to be able to visit dd & ds all together. Will it be weird to have an empty house?

Kristin - You survived the week & kudos on getting in your workouts! DH was just telling me this weekend how some teachers he knows are saying that teaching is changing so much & they want to quit:(

Melissa - Do you find it easier during school breaks to get back on track or is it harder? I was just saying Gravity is one of those movies which you should see in the theatre.

Cookie - You had a busy weekend, wish they didn't go by so quickly. I'm can't wait to the long holiday weekend.

Amelia - Hi

Goodnight:)
 
'Morning!
Belinda, what brand of sneakers to you wear? Do you need inserts for your feet?
Amelia, any decision on the second job?
Kristin, hope this week is easier.
Melissa, almost done with this semester.
Deb, your dh is right. Lots are saying it is also too many changes and far too quickly. Is Thanksgiving at your house this year?
Very windy last night and it woke me up. Going to do another yoga wo in a bit.
Cookie
 
Good afternoon,

I finished my workout a while ago. I did 10 PSD TB.

I also will go for a nice long walk. BBL with personals. Sorry for the short post!
 
Hey girls, I just finished a 2 mile power walk and that will be all for me today. Walking is better than nothing :D

Hello to everybody. Gotta get some house work done. :)
