Good morning,

Today I will work legs & calves!

My sis and BI are coming today, they will stay until Saturday. I will try to do my best with personals. If not I will catch up on Saturday evening.

Have a great workout and day, girls! I will be back to report my workout!

Good Morning Ladies,

I have a busy day ahead of me, need to be in by 8 a.m today, and I don't stop until 8 tonight.... I'm going try do 4DS HIS Step for a quickie workout today.
So the Body Sculpt class....lol...yeah. Well the men in my class thought it started next week. So I knew the one girl would be there, so she got a freebie session with me, and I burned her good. hehe. It was fun! And at this point I just want to train and train good and well and hard so that the word gets out there. In fact, my cousin who is taking boot camp called me last night because now a friend wants to do it......so I think as with anything else, I need to be patient and put in my dues to build my business!

Belinda- Ohhh you are so right with how you look at food. That's how I did it for so long......and to be honest, I've never had a weight problem. Now that I'm measuring every little darn thing, I feel like I've done nothing but put a couple of pounds, even though my goal is to change my composition, not lose weight or gain. Hope you have a great workout today!!

Deb- Somehow I doubt it's only Macy's gonna be setting up early this year. It just seems like Christmas is gonna be year round before too long, you know?? And I was almost thinking tonsilitis.....still have a sore throat this morning....ugh.

Melissa- Awesome workout last night! Yeah 40/20 is nutso. Omg at your eardrum exploding. How freaking painful was that??

Amelia- Hope you enjoyed your day yesterday! I'm giving this throat until the weekend.

Helene- How was your DS's party on Saturday?? I almost called you then, see what time that was. Which Pizza Uno did you go to?

Trish- Being that it's small group, and still considered personal training, I don't "do" the entire class. It's not a group class where I"m working out the whole time too. Someday I will be doing group, though! I want to teach step.... LOL @ your solo workout......shocker there. What is it about guys........lol

Have a great day ladies...

Morning! No internet connection again last night so couldn't check in.
Belinda, enjoy your time with your sis and bil. Any special plans? I can count and count and nothing budges over here.
Iris, it must be the day - I'm with you on having a long day. Actually didn't work out to be sure I had all my presentation materials set. Wish I wasn't so neurotic about being prepared. Hope you figure out what's up with your throat soon. The girls do not discriminate on malls - we usually hit both Crossgates and Colonie in the same shopping trip. They take forever to make a decision too. Now the boots just bought on Monday had a button fall off, and they wanted to go again yesterday. No! I'll try to return them on my own so I can be in and out without torture of "just browsing."
Helene, happy birthday to your ds. I bet he was so cute at the celebration. My life is even more boring than a mole rat's. Work, chauffer, house, repeat.
Deb, sorry for my mall rants. It is their trolling around that wears me out. My exchange student has commented that it seems strange to see Christmas decs up so early, especially before Halloween. Wonder if your salesperson was the highest seller with his energy?
Lori, are you recovering from the race? How are you feeling?
Amelia, how's your ds feeling? Hope he's recovered and hasn't spread it to any other family members?
Kristin, there are so many fun things to do with the Smartboard. I really like its interactivity. Isn't it a shame that many use it as a glorified overhead projector?
Melissa, what are you going to be for Halloween? How are the college lans coming along?
I started this a while ago and kept getting interrupted to help my dear exchange daughter make cookies for my dd's birthday. It's tomorrow, but she wanted to do it this morning. Anyway, athletic step yesterday, cookie baking and presentations planning/organizing this morning.

Morning everyone,

Belinda: Have fun with your fam. I guess if you come back to the states next year you won't see them as often. Awesome on eating what you want. Still can't do that because I don't have good control. But yeah, you are working out hard How are your ears by the way. Are they OK?

Melissa: Speaking of ears...... Ouch! How long did it take to heal? Didn't do 40/20 yesterday. We came home too late and I didn't want to start at 9PM because after that workout I am wired for a while. I like it and don't like it at the same time. I like that it pushes me and I love how wired I am after, but during I just want it to stop. Thank god it is short. Have fun at the hole today if such a thing is possible.

Kristin: How is the new board?

Iris: That sounds good on working out the girl. Did she like it? Does anyone give you any feedback? It sounds good to me by the way how things are going. I bet you will be much sought after once the word gets out. I see you as a Jillian type of instructor with your own twist of course. That will work really well for a lot of people.

Deb: I hate the mall too. I am with Melissa and Cookie. When I first came to the US I thought they were so cool (yeah I came as a teenager). Now I can't stand them. I'm like Trish, I order everything including some food items. My neighbor is always talking about how much I buy, but she doesn't realize I have everything shipped and never go to the store. For me Xmax displays are in the brochures in the mail

Lori: How are you doing? How are the legs? I hope you are doing good and don't have the blues like after the last mary. It must be hard to know what to do for workouts after a race like that. When do you even start doing anything again?

Trish: Good job on the eats. I tanked. We got there and they had the beer they told me last time they didn't have anymore. So I had a big one . For dinner it was fish and veggies so that was OK. Then had a bit of the bread pudding desert but we shared. Oh well, it was DS' Bday after all.

Amelia: How is the weather in Georgia lately? It is starting to get mighty cold up here. It is pretty though.

Cookie: I think your schedule might be the worst, although with Iris' classes now I'm not sure. If this keeps going the three of us will have to meet at the mall's foodcourt. I'll bring my food if that's the case.

OK, time to go to work. I will do cardio tonight, just not sure which. I am thinking LM or a BM2 premix. Something where the music keeps it fun.

Have a great day everyone.

Morning girls! Its so pretty outside, i haven't stepped out yet but the sun is so bright! I've got to get out there and walk the dog. Later I plan on doing a lower body workout with some core work.

Hey, does anyone know what kind of flowering shrub this is? Im guessing some type of gardenia or something close. Tried looking it up on the internet but no luck? I will bbl

 

[dr.mel_PT]

Morning girls!

Killer DOMS today from yesterday's STS session. For some reason my chest is a little sore too? Don't know what that's from Tonight I plan on doing BM2 cardio only (Amelia, you inspired me to bring this one out!).

Belinda, I wish I didn't have to weigh/measure everything. I have NO willpower when it comes to food and I'm a spaz with trying to eyeball serving sizes, so weighing is the only way to go for me. Those are some great accomplishments though!! Hopefully one day I will get there Have fun with your family this weekend!

Iris, good luck with the bootcamp class! You will get your following soon enough. If I lived closer, I'd hire you to kick my arse! The eardrum exploding was soooo painful but I've never been so terrified in my life. I woke up that morning and I couldn't hear out of it! It's pretty much healed now, took months to do that; my hearing still isn't great in that ear but at least it didn't kill all my hearing.

Cookie, I'm gonna be Jem (80s cartoon) for Halloween. I can't wait! I love Halloween College plans are coming along great! I actually have to call the school today because registration is 10/25 but they said I have to register 11/1 since I am a transfer student. Not really sure if I qualify as a transfer since I already have a degree and I'm not working towards another one? I will find out...

Helene, I am in the same boat as you with 40/20; I like it but I hate it at the same time. I love when I'm done because I feel so accomplished but I can't stand doing it. I was cursing at the TV last night! Can you do it without pausing? I can't; I had to pause 2x last night to catch my breath. LOL so you might be doing BM2 also tonight? Great minds

Amelia, glad the weather by you is nice! It's raining here Sorry, no clue what that flower is. It's pretty though. Are you looking to grow some?

Trish, I do all my shopping online too. It's just easier for me that way. I always have specific things in mind and if I go out hunting for them, I am driving all over God's country to find it!

Lori, how are you recovering from your race?

Deb, we have a fake tree too. I like it because I love to keep the lights on as much as possible, so this way we don't have to worry about setting the house on fire Also, there is a wood burning stove in the room where we keep the tree and my dad likes to feel like he lives in the tropics so that room is at least 85/90 degrees during the winter: not ideal conditions for a Christmas tree!

Kristin, how's your day going?

BBL to report my workout!

 

[gidget1978]

Hi Girls!

Ugh....adjusting to everything since I have gotten home is taking a toll! Im sooo sleepy! I went right back to work on Tues and I have had to come in both mornings at 5'ish..and now I have to come back tonight at 11. When I got home today I knew it was pointless to go back to bed b/c it was almost 8. I am guessing I won't get any down time until DS goes to bed. Dog is sheding like crazy and I still need groceries. Apparently no one else knows where the grocery store is! I just can't wait to be off this weekend!

You know, it really takes a while to get back into the swing of things after you have been away and ran something like that. I am probably still tired from the time change, even though it was only 90 mins, the run...flying...then DS acting up the day I came home (making up for lost time I guess) It just seems as if our lives are crazy right now...DH's included.

I decided not to do anymore until next Fall, if then. But my running partner is going through withdrawl. She qualified for the Boston but it sold out in record time this year. Last year it sold out in 6 weeks, this year 8 hours! Can you believe that? There was no time for her to "think" about it (b/c she puts things off) she went to register and it was full. She then comes to my house on Tues night, while I am getting dinner ready and her hands and mouth are going a mile a min b/c all she wants to do is talk about running and the next race I should do...which always includes her. God forbid I should take DH with me. Anyway..she is finally back to work today and hopefully coming back to reality.

Soooooo....I also had my first training session today with my friend. We scheduled it for 6:30 this morning but that was changed b/c of my job...so she came over at 9 and she claims it was the best workout she ever had. She is some what fit already. She doesn't lift weights but she does workout from time to time so I knew what I was dealing with. I created a circuit workout for her, using the TM and she was sweating buckets. She thinks I shoud do this FT as a living but I don't think I can do that right now. I need a set income b/c my income isn't play money....my income helps pay those darn bills. We have another workout planned for Sunday morning and it will be legs.

I need to read what I have missed. I have missed you guys! Tomorrow morning (cause I am off) my life should resume to normal! I should be able to sit down and relax with the computer!!!!!

Belinda** Enjoy your time with your family!

Iris** I really enjoyed my training session today. Its easy to work people hard! LOL I was afraid I was gonna work her to hard. Hopefully she won't be to sore tomorrow...I don't want to scare her away.

Ameila** I Know nothing about flowers but it is a beautiful one. My MIL would probably know.

Helene** NO, I don't really have the blues. I think I am o.k. The day after I was wondering what else I could do but I think that is starting to fade away and I will look into later this year. Its just so expensive to do these races b/c I have to travel so far. Do you have any company staying with you now?

Cookie** Have fun baking!! My legs are almost better!

Melissa** Good job with the DOMS!

I may bbl!

Lori

 

[punka274]

Lori- Way cool about you training your friend!

Melissa-lol, glad i inspired you for bm2...rock it girl! That flowering bush/shrub is right in front of my front porch (you can see some of the lattice from my porch in the pic) High fives on the doms!

Helene- bm2 & LM are full of fun! Have a good workout tonight!!

Cookie-Sweet of your exchange student to bake cookies for you DD's b-day! Happy birthday to your DD! Nice job on AS yesterday! DS is feeling better, I put him on clarition...seems to be helping.

Iris-Great news on your cousins friend...you'll be rolling in clients soon. Have a good workout with 4ds

Belinda-Have a great time with your Sister and her husband! How are your legs? (teehee) Mine are pretty fried right now...walking like a duck,lol

Hello to Kristine and Debbie, hope I didn't forget anyone. I just finished my workout. a 30min power walk then 30mins of L&G followed by KPC core. Im done and glad. I almost didn't workout today...still in the blahs

later gators
