Commit to get FIT & LEAN for October!!

Evening. Just finished GS BSB. My shoulders are fried!!!!

Today at work I had my first "pop in" unofficial observation by my lead evaluator, my assistant principal. All went very well. He had only nice things to say, lots of praises. I got so nervous though. My voice went up about two octaves. I am so insane, lol. My building iadministrators are doing ten unofficial walk through observations per teacher and then the official observation. So one down, nine and another to go, lol.

Cookie-AROD needs to get his head on straight! That's all I have to say. I think he is a waste of $$$$.

Lori- WOW!!! You had an interesting day, lol. It sounds like a Calgon commercial. I am really like the GS. I haven't done them in about a year or more, so it is working well. I mean the change. . . I am already feeling major DOMs and they are lasting longer than usual, so something is working.

Belinda- did you see Lorraine Duffy liked my status on facebook. :eek: That made my good day even better!!! I guess she likes Puerto Rican food!

Deb- I find early holiday displays a huge turn-off. It actually angers me. I just feel that it so overly commercialized and advertised and just. . . it is a disgrace to me. I am not a religious person either.

Okay, I am beat!

Good Morning....let's all take a minute to raise our mugs and toast to "a better day"

I think the baby tried to pull the same 4:30 stunt but it didn't work. I remember he was tapping my face at some point but he must have went back to sleep shortly after and we didn't get up till 7. My day is already off to a better start. Imagine the working out I'd do if I had to get up 4:30 every morning

When the kids go to school I am running to Walmart, then home again to train at 9:30 & 10:30. After lunch I will get my own workout done.

Cookie** did you enjoy your paperwork rest day?;) I think I'd rather workout! Everything was laughable AFTER besides for DD's tantrum. That's not cool.

Kristin** my inlaws told me to go for a drive yesterday and I told them I might not come back if they let me out:eek: I'm usually sore before I even go to bed after I do the GS workouts.

Have a good day everyone! Bbl!

Lori:)
 
Hi everyone. . . it is early for me I know,but I saw something last night after I posted that got me all riled up, lol. Deb- after writing my post last night, guess what I saw on t.v. . . . the first Christmas/Holiday commercial of the year. The culprit was Target. Halloween isn't even here yet!!!! I was yelling at the t.v. Unbelievable. Just disgusting.

Okay. . . I have a meeting with the Special Education Committee this morning, so I can take my time getting ready because I don't have to be there until 8:15. I am slowly drinking my coffee and browsing the net. BBL!

Kristin
 
Lori- too funny about d=the thought of driving away. I've had that thought a few times, lol. I am crossing my fingers for you that you have a better day. I cannot see how you wouldn't, nothing can top yesterday I bet.

Kristin
 
Hi,

Yesterday I did yoga. Today working on about 4 hours sleep, couldn't sleep & finally got out of bed to do somethings around the house. We're leaving in a couple of hours to Florida, plan is already delayed. I'm bringing travelfit & will check in when I can.

Belinda - I think the new BBL series is 3 DVDs for $59 sounds expensive the DVDs are 30 min & under.

Lori - So you didn't drop the kids at your in-laws doorstep & run or put them on a plane to DH:eek: Seriously I don't think you need to w/o with the kind of days you have;)

Kristin - Wow, 9 observations crazy but great job nailing it! I can't believe they are doing TV ads for holidays already. No wonder it's so hard to get in the Christmas spirit when they start too soon! Hopefully I will be out of the business when they start holidays in the summer:confused:

Cookie - Ugh, on the paperwork you would think with computers there would be a lot less. Hopefully you'll get your meeting in on Friday.

Amelia - I noticed at our foodstore so many Halloween cakes & cookies as if the candy wasn't enough LOL

Get some extra workouts in for me;)
 
Good morning,

I never got a workout in yesterday. I was waiting for Aleisa, by the time she was done with work she was to tired. So was I! Oh well!

Today I will do D4 and abs.

Debbie - good job with your yoga workout. Have a wonderful time in FL. Try to relax. That's expensive for 3 DVDs. I find all BB Dvds are expensive.
　
Kirstin - that's crazy about the Christmas/Holiday commercial. Costco is selling Xmas stuff since weeks. Have fun at your meeting this morning. I haven't been on FB this morning, will check it out. Lorraine is awesome.
　
Cookie - we live 75 miles from Baltimore. Not to bad. Did you get all your paperwork done?
　
　
Lori - hope your day is better today. I hate days like this. What did you buy at WM? I feel like I am always shopping for food.

　
Have a wonderful day and workout, everyone.
　
 
Hallo ladies,

I walked the dogs (2.5 miles) + D5 (Back/Tric) not D4:rolleyes: and I did Incredible Abs Volume 2 #1, 20 min.

I will be back in the morning. Good night, everyone.
 
'Evening!
Belinda, 75 is quite close to Baltimore. I really like that area a lot. it is freezing here. How was your dog walk?
Kristin, I spent yesterday and today at evaluator consistency (or something like that) training! It must be so stressful having the unannounced but doing it also is stressful, and takes an incredible amount of time. Heard one of our BOE members asked how much it is costing in personnel time.
Lori, can't believe your inlaws would suggest you take a drive! Maybe they didn't know how yesterday was? I would have been tempted to go on a long road trip.
Amelia, how are you doing? Hope you are well.
Deb, are you trying to compete with me on the lack of sleep? if so, last night you won. I actually fell back to sleep this morning and ended up rushing to get out the door. Is everything okay? Hope you aren't stressed over things.
Cookie
 
Hi everyone,

We're in Fl, today we walked about 4 miles. Really cool we saw manatees on the beach. They were really close to the shore some people were touching them but I was too chicken. We have seen dolphins before but never manatees or sharks LOL.

Belinda - It seems like you don't take too many rest days. Cathe w/o's are a bargain compared to BBL.

Lori - How is the house selling going?

Kristin - are you excited the Yankees won. DS just told us they played this afternoon we were set to watch them tonight!

Cookie - Not sure how you do it but catching up on my sleep. I guess I was worried because my to do list is to long LOL.

Hi Amelia

Great job with your workouts!!!
 
Good Morning

Slept well last night. The baby didn't wake until 6:52...but if course I woke a few times b/c I'm use to it. Both mornings he's had his poop done...weird. I went to put him in bed with me so we could relax for a bit and that wasn't happening cause he needed to be changed. Oh well...

Yesterday's workout was cardio mixed in with PH, I think I did 35-40 mins of tm and bike. It was a good workout. I haven't done PH in a while. I'm not sure what I will do today. I was hoping to just run outside but it's suppose to be chilly.

Exciting news....we have a viewing at 11:30. Funny thing...one of the girls I train text me yesterday and asked what number my house was. I asked her why and she said that her brother wanted to know. Shortly after that I get a call saying that they have someone who wants to view the house at 11:30 and it's a her stuff/his stuff situation and they need four bedrooms. It's def my clients brother b/c they are both divorced and have 3 kids between the two of them. Apparently they like the location...let's see what happens. I wouldn't get to excited just yet.

3 more people from DH's troop is being sent home. They call it "up for termination" then you have to write a letter pledding your cause but it's just as well you pack your bags. Like one of their instructors said yesterday "it's not if your going home-it's when are you going home". It's sad that they get that far and dont make it.

Deb** my sister left for fl this morning...she's flying high right now:(. I was so jealous...I've gotten over it now b/c the viewing is on my mind. Enjoy the sun! It's getting cold here.

Kristin** I tell ya...I should get an award for raising a girl:rolleyes:. And children are a gift from God???? :p who said that???? Lol. I saw more Christmas stuff out at Walmart yesterday! Nuts!

Cookie** I need an extended vaca. And I don't even like to ask for help. I think I am getting tired of this now b/c I know the end is near. I think working out is the only thing that helps me with my sanity!

Belinda** WM always drains me dry. I can't do there without spending a $100. I don't go that often b/c i'd have to take kids with me and then I have to buy them a treat:mad: it's always cheaper for me to leave DS home!

I will check back in later!! I also have drinking cards tonight with the girls! I'm looking forward to it!

Lori
 
Morning girls,

My internet didn't work yesterday, sorry:( Boy, it's cold outside:confused:

Yesterday I did High & Tight with 5# ankle weights. I have a DOMS in my bum bum today:eek: Not good, because I have D6 Legs on tap today:rolleyes: I will be walking funny tomorrow:p we start painting the kitchen today. I will catch up on personals later.
 
Hi girls. Yesterday was a rest day. I watched the Yankee game until 7:30, when I crashed. Lol. I went to bed right after I put the kids down at 8:30. I slept until 7. It was heaven. I've been wearing myself thin, I think. This morning I had to go to the dentist to get three fillings. This dentist is excellent. The cavities weren't that deep, and he was able to do the fillings without novocaine. I only felt a little discomfort. I need a root canal and then in January I am getting the laser gum surgery. Fun, fun, fun. . .

Anway, I cleaned up the house and then did Step Blast and Yoga Max premix #1. I am feeling good, but smelly. I will jump in the shower after this, lol. Making meatballs and spaghetti today. Staying in for the game.

Lori- good luck with the viewing today! It must be stressful to go through all the training and "tests" and then be told you are going home. I would be beside myself.

Belinda- it is cold here too. I am hoping making meatballs and spaghetti and garlic bread will help heat the house up (being that it is sooo tiny) and then I can hold off on turning on the heat!

Deb- glad you are enjoying Florida. You left just in time. It went from hot and humid here to cold and chilly :(. Enjoy the warmth and sun.

Cookie- I am sure it is stressful for the evaluator as well. APPR is proving to be very costly with all the training and materials needed. Not to mention all the testing. I actually had a parent call me asking me why I marked her daughter absent when she was in school. When I explained that when we have assemblies and pictures that take up the period I have to mark the whole class absent to record proper doage time for my evaluation, she said that was nuts. I told her I agreed. HAha.

Okay, I will be back. GO YANKEES!!!!

Kristin
 
'Evening!
My space bar seems to be going so we'll see how this goes.
Belinda, bet you are enjoying those doms.
Lori, hope the showing went well. My sons were much more of a challenge than my daughter. Actually, just one of our sons, and he was worse than all the other kids combined!
Amelia, hope all is well.
Kristin, I'm with you in that I am not interested in hearing about Christmas now.
Deb, glad you made it to Florida Hope you're relaxing and walking. Only have seen manatees in an aquarium.
Went to visit dd for weekend. Have eaten a lot of good food and done some walking.
Have to get on tighter control once I return home.
Cookie
 
Good Morning:)

Drinking cards was fun last night. I could have stayed up later and drank more but I called it quits around 12:30 cause I knew it was going to be a early rise. And I only had two drinks..and I was feeling those. By the time I came home I was fine though. It's a good thing I came home when I did cause the baby woke at 3, then DS came out and crawled in bed with me too. I'm not real fussy on having the two of them next to each other in the bed cause I'm afraid DS will elbow the baby or something. But he's safer there then he is on the outside of the bed. Then he woke just before 6...and here we are :confused:

The viewing went really well yesterday. Out of the houses they've viewed this one was their fav. They like the location and the garage:rolleyes:...no trouble to tell there is a man involved. They keep telling me my house is over priced but yet I look at other houses similar to ours, the price isn't that much different and they don't have all of the things we have. The house up the st doesn't have a garage or a hot tub and they are only selling for 16 grand less. Then there is another one similar to ours that's selling for 24 grand less and it doesn't have hot tub,garage or paved driveway. I think they are just saying that to get me to lower the price...a cheap house will sell itself so what would I be paying these guys for? Anyway, they have a few more houses to look at but I think they will be back for a 2nd viewing and who knows...maybe not

I went for a run yesterday evening and it was so cold. I did just over 13k. I'm leaning towards starting with the GS today b/c I'm up so early. I'll let the baby crawl around on the floor and then by the time I'm ready for cardio he will be ready for a nap.

Belinda** so are you walking funny?:p Nothing like some good DOMS. I was feeling it yesterday from PH the day before. Some of those older workouts are goodies!

Cookie** geez...don't tell me boys can be trouble too;). That's the last thing I need to hear. Im in denial about that one.

Kristin** I need a good sleep like that. I will go to bed early tonight cause I don't have to stay up and wait to hear from DH cause I will be talking to him through out the day. One of the other things I'm not looking forward to when we move is looking for a new dr and dentist. I love the ones I have now. My dentist is actually my childhood dentist!

I will bbl to report my workout!

Lori:)
 
Morning girls,

Yesterday I did D6 Legs and GS legs stretch.

We never started on the kitchen yesterday, doubt we will start today:eek: DH can't hardly walk today, he worked around the yard/house all day yesterday:rolleyes: We shall see. We put up/changed all the lights outside. Our new mail box is up too.

Lori - glad you had a great evening. Do you have a realtor? I know, they cost a lot of money? Next house we selling, I would sell on my own. Good luck selling yours!! I spent a lot of money on groceries too.

Cookie - enjoy your visit with your DD. Are you sleeping better these day's? I got a few nights good sleep. Wake up a lot? I will see a doc on Monday, will ask him about it. Also my PF is still bordering me, haven't really done any cardio in weeks, except walking:rolleyes:

Kirstin - I already have the heater running since last weekend:( it's to cold! Did you make meatballs and spaghetti and garlic bread yesterday?

Debbie - that is so cool you could see/touch a manatees on the beach:eek: Glad you having fun. I do take a rest day, usually on Sunday's!

Amelia - how are you doing?

Not sure, if I take a rest day or do a BBL workout w/Aleisa today?

I will be back later. Enjoy your Sunday, everyone.
 
Hey girls, Im off work today and tomorrow and very excited about it:eek:

Today we're going to sixflags then out to eat after.

Ok guys..don't laugh but I bought into some chaos surrounding a certain new weight loss supplement.:eek:

I was watching doctor OZ and he was raving about Green Coffee Bean extract capsules. People were dropping weight with just taking this pill? I immediately went online and bought some...they should be here Tomorrow or tuesday:eek: I'm sure its all just a scam but this product has a lot of good reviews on several different sites so I'm gonna try it.

nothing new happening with me besides work, cleaning up the house and then doing it again the next day:eek: Got in two weight workouts this week along with some walks. I have zero motivation these days:( just struggling, sigh. Im sure I will get my groove back as soon as I set my mind again. ;)

Lori- Nice run yesterday, lol at the garage comment.

Belinda- Have fun painting the kitchen!! I love the look of fresh paint. Nice workouts girly...have a great Sunday!

Deb- OMG...YES!! We're stocking up already on all the holiday stuff, cupcakes and 12' cookies ( yep, 12 inch:eek:) and fudge platters. Glad your enjoying your trip to Florida! I think I would be too chicken to touch the manatees too:eek:

Cookie-Sounds like you had a good time with your DD. I too need to tighten up on the eating.

Kristin-That is a great dentist!! I hate that Novocaine stuff. I've got three cavities that I need to take care of and keep putting off, ugh. Sounds like you had a very productive day yesterday:) I cleaned up after work but never got in workout. I love stepblast...so fun!

off to get ready for sixflags. Everyone have a great Sunday:)

Hi girls. Today's workout was AB and then AC med ball abs. With AB, I really belt it out and did not get dizze, not once, lol. Feeling good. I spent my morning grading writing assignments and now I am taking a break because we have friends coming over to watch the game. I will resume grading when they leave, lol. Derek Jeter hurt his ankle last night and is out for the season I think. He is one of my favorites and this is so upsetting. I hope he is back next season. He is up there in age.

Lori- wow you have the same dentist all these years. I have really hated every dentist I went to my whole life except for this one office I am going to now. They seem to have the latest technology and knowledge and I love that even though I seem to have all these problems going on, I have yet to feel any pain with them.

Cookie- my eating has been bad too. I sem to do okay Monday-Thursday and then fall off the wagon on the weekend. We are having pizza tonight, lol.

Deb- I'd be afraid to touch a manatee, but I would get very close to it. I love manatees and dolphins.

Belinda- it sounds like you guys are busy with fixing up the house. You should rest a little bit :)

Amelia- I won't laugh. I bought those It Works wraps . .. didn't work for me. My problem area whether I am at my goal weight or not is my stubborn stomache. It's genetic. Nothing seems to work for it except clean eating, which I have not been doing these days (four days on three days off).

Okay, I need to shower up.

Kristin
 
Morning girls,


Took a rest day yesterday. DH back is feeling better after resting all day yesterday. We ended up having my neigbor for dinner, his wife is out of town for a few day. He is a great neigbor, always helping us and others. Had a great evening.


I am up early, couldn't sleep:rolleyes: I have a busy day ahaid, have a doc appointment after lunch and tonight we have to take ChuChu (our dog) to training.

Once my DH is done working out in the basement I will do D7 (CSB).

Have a great day/workout, everyone. BBL!

Kirstin - hope you had fun watching the game with your friends last night.

Amelia - let me know how you like the weight loss supplement! Hope you had fun at Sixflags yesterday.
 
Good Morning:)

I feel a lot better then I did yesterday morning! Yesterday was a very lazy/gross day. It was just as well I went on a big bender cause that's how I felt. I had a two hour nap after lunch which helped....and it was such a long day!!! I did do the GS UB workouts in the a.m and last night when the kids were tucked away I did CM.

I have training today at 9:30 and 10:30 so I won't be working out until after lunch. I think I'll do legs and a run.

Belinda** what are you getting done to your kitchen? I'm sure you've had to pay a few realtors through out the years. DH said if he was home he would sell the house himself. That's what we did the last time but there was no way I could deal with that on my own, even if it did save me a pile of money. It's hard enough getting the house in order before I showing. I hope I don't have to many before it sells!

Ameila** maybe it you've lost your groove b/c winter is on the way!? That happens sometimes. Lol...those diet pills! I bet you any money one of my clients will soon be asking me about those.

Kristin** I haven't had the same dentist all of those years. For a while I didn't even go..I couldn't afford it when I was a single mom and the fact that I hated the dentist didn't help. Must be the noises cause no one has ever hurt me. But when I started getting serious about my teeth again, it just so happened that my childhood dentist had moved to this town so I went back to him. I should have married a dentist:p they make a lot of money! Lol

I will bbl to report my workout!

Lori:)
