Commit to get FIT & Lean for November!!

Morning girls,

Its snowing here :eek: a rare sight in Georgia. Its not sticking so thats nice :)

Well, there was a problem with my paycheck deposit yesterday ( I didn't get it,lol) so now I have to approach a very unapproachable person at work today about it. I really hate talking to this Customer Service Manager because she is so hateful and rude ( not sure how she got her job) and tends to be a smartass. Ugh...I always end up strangler her in my mind when we get done talking. :eek:

Yesterday was MMUB, today is going to be something after work. I need to follow a rotation or something. Something for beginners..

Kristin-Sounds like your renter isn't sure what she's doing. I wouldn't fret, like you said...everything will work out in the end. :)

I've got to get ready for work. BOOOOO

laters...
 
'Morning!
Belinda, my thoughts and prayers are for your bil and family. Hope he's doing alright. you can see ab definition?!!! How long was that rotation? What kind of workouts?
Amelia, I hate having to deal with some folks also. So ironic she's in customer service! After working for the district for a few years, one year I didn't receive the first paycheck of the school year. So I had to call Payroll, and they asked if I had been working! I was so shocked I said yes - and it sure isn't volunteer work! Hope it all goes smoothly.
Kristin, I second Deb's idea that she wants to move someone else in - perhaps her sister - and was unsure of what your reaction was going to be. Someone told me yesterday his daughter went to counseling for the stress she was feeling last year before testing - she was in third grade! A teacher who has won numerous accolodates for her teaching submitted her resignation last week. Said it is just crazy what's going on, and she's done.
Deb, I spent days looking for my ID, which was in between the seats in the car! it's hard to keep anything straight at this time of year. So, did you agree to dog sit?
Melissa, hope you're hanging in there with school.
Did not sleep well last night at all. The wind and rain was quite noisy.

Good morning,

Thanks for all your prayers! Means a lot to me! My BIL is alert. He is getting an MRI done today, waiting for my sis to call me later.

Cookie - the rotation was 4 weeks. A lot of core work:D Some day's you workout 1:30 min. Tough stuff! Sorry you didn't sleep well last night.

Debbie - sorry about your day yesterday. It's that time of the year. Slow down! Once I am back from vacation I will start another round of 10 Pounds Slim Down.

Kirstin - hope all works out for you and the renter! If it's not one thing it's another!

Happy Hump Day! BBL!
 
Good evening,

I went Thanksgiving shopping with my DD and DS' GF, came home ate a nice crusty bread and broke my back tooth:confused: DH/DD and DS's girlfriend called around to find a dentist in our area. Nobody took new patients or already closed for Thanksgiving:mad: Alesia found a dentist not very far from my house after calling around for over 1.5 hours. They were so nice:D They temporally fixed/filled my tooth. I have to go back after my vacation and get a crown. I was so afraid to lose my tooth:( half my tooth is gone. I been looking for a good dentist for the last 2 years, I guess I found one today:D Everyone was so nice! DH said they were nice because I paid cash:p:p off course they nice:eek:

No workout for me today:confused:



I will check in tomorrow. Have a great evening.
 
Hi,

I didn't get done with work early like I wanted so I skipped my workout:( & started preparing for Thanksgiving. I'm not going to stress & just hope for the best.

Belinda - It's great that you found a dentist to take you & too funny about the cash:) TG you were able to get it fixed because after all tomorrow is an eating holiday:eek:

Amelia - SNOW for you & the kid must be awesome!! I always love the 1st snow & if I can stay home even better:)

Cookie - It's funny between the seats was one of the places I looked. I'm dog sitting & this dog has so much energy so poor Lucy who spends most of her day sleeping. I hope you sleep better tonight.

Waves hi to Kristin & Melissa

Goodnight:)
 
Happy Thanksgiving!
Belinda, that's terrific you were able to get a dentist, and I'm sure he was thankful for cash! How's your bil doing?
Amelia, snow for you?!!! Bet your darlings enjoyed it. What are you doing for today?
Melissa, are you off to your parents?
Kristin, I'm sure your busy getting the food ready. Do your ds help with the decorating?
Deb, you've got a second job on your hands with the dog sitting. Do you have to work Black Friday?
Squeezing in a yoga wo this morning. Still have to make bread to take with us to my sister's. My dd made cookies to also take. It's really windy out. Til two weeks ago, we were planning on going to NYC to watch the balloons inflate and then stay over to see the parade and walk around. Now I'm glad we'll be warm and inside! Guess that's a sign I'm getting up there. Oh, plus I made an appt to plan for retirement!!!!! Just getting info, but I'm really enjoying the thought.
Cookie
 
Happy Thanksgiving Everybody!!

I've got to work today and thank goodness my hubby decided to cook or we would be going out to eat :confused: .

Cookie- Have a great time at your sisters. Great job on your yoga workout!!

Belinda-Yay on your DD finding a dentist for you. Glad it was taken care of :) And your right...it is always something.

Deb- Im sure your thanksgiving dinner will be perfect :) if you start stressing have a glass of wine ;) I plan on drinking as soon as I walk in the door after work. I'm going to have a full house of people over so Im gonna need some wine :eek:

Hello to Kristin and Melissa :)

So...when I arrived at work yesterday I was thankful to see a different Customer Service Manager there, and she straightened out my paycheck that I won't be getting until next Wednesday :mad: , they always screw up things :rolleyes:
 
Happy Thanksgiving,

I did High & Tight (Brazil Butt Lift) and Build and Sculpt w/Anna Caban.

My suitcase is packed:D I am so ready for a vacation.

I will check in tomorrow or Saturday. Have a great day. See you soon.
 
Hi,

Hope everyone enjoyed Thanksgiving!!

It was a bit stressful, should have planned better ran a little late. We go to my in-laws afterwards. My feet were killing me by the end of the day. Looking forward to workout tomorrow:)

Belinda - Have fun on your vacation;)

Kristin - I hope you 1st Thanksgiving at the new house went well.

Amelia - I'm happy it's over, and can't wait to hit the bed. That was sweet of DH cooking sorry about the paycheck:(

Cookie - I was thinking how cold it must be to be at the parade today. It was fun to watch on TV, I always think how close you used to live to it. I wanted to make cookies just no time for it hopefully Christmas.

Melissa - I hope you had time to enjoy the holiday.

Goodnight:)
 
'Morning!
Belinda, is today your travel day? How is your tooth feeling?
Amelia, not til next Wednesday? Why can't they cut a check earlier than that?!!! Just wondering, if they would cover for any checks that might go thru on your end? When mine got mixed up (that time I mentioned before), they had to cover any checks I might have bounced. Luckily none did. LOL at drinking as soon as you got in the door.
Kristin, how was the holiday in the new house?
Deb, it is so hard to time everything coming together, isn't it? For me, that's the most stressful part of the cooking. Yeah, those were they days, living in the city. Was telling one of my sons the other day how much fun we had there. How did the dogs do with all the company?
Had a very relaxing meal with my sister, her husband and son. Her son's gf stopped by for a while, but it was a very small gathering. First time we've had a Thanksgiving meal that small. Usually, since I have so many siblings, we've tried getting a lot together, but this worked out really well. Plus, we all just saw each other a couple of weeks ago at my bil's and mom's parties.
Did kb swings, clean and presses, and yoga yesterday. Yoga again today, and hoping to get a walk in. Kids want to see a movie, but I don't want to venture out. However, that means I have to trust them to drive my car!

Hey girls, Hope everybody's thanksgiving was good. I ate way too much.

Today I plan on doing a Wii workout called Cardio Boxing or something like that. It a good sweat fest after about 40 minutes.

I've been mentally preparing myself over the last few weeks to start counting calories again. Yes it drives me mad, it makes me crazy but its also the only way that I know how to lose weight. And I know that once I get started It will become a habit and not so bad. I'm starting today :) pretty excited to get some weight off. My goal is to lose 1lb a week. MFP has me at 1750 a day + workout calories but I will save my workout calories for a meal on Friday.

Cookie-Nice workouts, great job!!

Debbie-What workout are you doing today?

Belinda-Nice workout girl, have a great time on your vacation. Where are you going again?

Hello to Kristin and Melissa :)
 
Hi everyone! Happy Thanksgiving. We had a good time here. Having Thanksgiving at my house took a lot of stress off my dad, and I was happy to do that. He doesn't open up much and he criticized me here and there, but at the end of the night he called me three separate times to thank me, so I know he appreciated it. My sister and I got along and everyone had a good time. The food was great too.

I did not get to do a workout the last two nights because I was too busy cleaning and preparing dinner, but I did walk Baxter twice yesterday, 40 minutes each time. I wanted him to be tired when our guests arrived. He was too excited with all the people, so we ended up putting him in the crate for a bit and then put the gate up and blocked him off in the den. It worked out well because he was extremely tired from the walking. I gave him a big bone and he was content.

Today I got Circuit Blast in the mail. I bought it from a friend who was selling her workout dvds on facebook. I did it today and I loved it. It is fast, fun and sweaty. The kind of workout I like. I really liked the music on it too. It had some of my favorite songs from AS and MMA workouts. I am definitely going to do this one a lot.

Belinda- sorry to hear about your tooth, but glad you at least liked to dentist you found. It is hard to trust someone with your teeth and it so much easier when you like the dentist. Enjoy your vacation.

Deb- glad you survived Thanksgiving. Were you wearing new shoes or something? What workout did you go for today?

Cookie- my little DS likes to help with cooking and he made some turkey drawings, lol. He gave everyone a drawing of a turkey as a gift. He is too cute. Your comment about the kids driving. . . I dread the teenage years. I cannot imagine the feeling of giving your kid the cars to the car, I shudder to think about it.

Amelia- I need to start keeping track again myself. I went on the other day, but I didn't log anything in. I won't do it today either as I had a piece of leftover marble pound cake for breakfast :eek:. I have no willpower during the holidays!

Waving hello to Melissa. We miss you girl!

Kristin
 
'Morning!
Belinda, safe travels today! Hope your doing okay with your tooth and feet.
Amelia, I need to get my eating back under control. I've been bad the past week! Perhaps we can make an agreement to check in on that as well as our workouts?
Kristin, very glad to hear how well things went on Thanksgiving. Tiring Baxter out was a good idea. I'm sure your dad was very thankful and appreciative. I miss those little kid decorations. Those years go by way too quickly.
Deb, how are you doing? Heard Macy's displays were outstanding.
Yesterday did yoga and Rockout Knockout. Wore my 2# wt gloves for the first two of three parts, and what a great workout. Plus it was fun.
Today bringing ds to the bus and tomorrow returning dd to Providence. Will squeeze in a workout later today. Trying to be a nice mom and make popovers, egg sandwiches, fruit salad, etc.

Hey everyone. I just finished ME upper body premix. I am thinking about what kind of rotation I want to do this month, if any. I need to get back to 5-6 workouts a week, that is a given. Just not sure what I want to focus on. I think I want to do total body workouts and cardio. Months ago, I lent my friend a bunch of my dvds, including supersets and low max, and I kind of miss them and want them back :(. Maybe I should say something?

Anyway, today I took the boys to see Frozen. It was a great movie. I really loved it and it was a musical. I did not know that until the first song came on. I cannot remember the last Disney movie that I saw that was a musical. Maybe the Lion King? Granted I've only seen Pixar/Disney movies, oh and Lilo and Stitch. My younger DS fell asleep. He falls asleep every time I take him to the movies, lol. I realize it is a waste of a ticket, but I cannot jus take my older DS, that would cause a problem. The muppets have a new movie coming out in March. I cannot wait for that!

Cookie- I won't tell you what I had at the movies. I was bad today!

Waving hello to everyone else!

Kristin
 
Hi,

I did X10 hi/low really liked that one. I'm still trying to catch up with sleep. The dogs are a handful forgot how much energy puppies have. We took the puppy to my in-laws to meet their dog which has super energy, they wore each other out running around the backyard.

Belinda - Have a safe trip:)

Kristin - I'm happy your Thanksgiving went well, it great that your Dad thanked you must have meant a lot to him. I would casually ask your friend for the tapes, I needed to do that with a neighbor once & she ended up losing one:confused:

Amelia - It's best to go back to what works for you. My eating was terrible this weekend:( Cardio boxing sounds like fun!

Cookie - You are a nice Mom to make all those goodies for the kids. I'm not sure if I'm covering NYC this year but if I do I want to check out the windows saw a little of them in the background of a news piece & it did look great.

Melissa - I hope your enjoying the holidays with your family.

Goodnight:)
 
Morning girls,

I've got to be at workout in about an hour an have yet to start getting ready so this will be a short checkin :confused:

Yesterday I did Cardio Coach V2 at the park. My legs were aching by the end...ugh, im so out of shape :eek: This morning my legs are very sore. I also did very well the last two days with my calorie counting. I don't plan on weighing in until Friday.
