Commit to get fit & lean for September!!

Hey girls,

Just a quick check in: I just finished Tank Top Arms w/ Cindy Whitmarch = 20 min plus Brazil Butt Lift "High and Tight"= 38 min. That is one tough little butt workout, I am sure I will feel my butt tomorrow. :p I really start like these kinda leg workout, they get me good. I didn't felt like doing cardio today and of course, I had to pick something tough instead:p

Tomorrow I will do cardio and yoga. Need to stretch my legs.

I will be back later to catch up on personals. Have a good one, everyone. Need to shower, DH will be here soon.
 
Wow! It's quiet here today.

I did my workout early this morning. I did 25 mins on the tm, 20 mins spinning and ps legs and abs. I'm not sure if I will be feeling my legs tomorrow or not..its not cathes toughest leg workout.

Belinda** nice workout. Do you have any plans for this weekend? I need to do some stretching as well. I'm famous for not doing it:eek:

Lori:)
 
Morning girls,


Today I will do cardio, not sure what yet?


Lori - nice mix of workouts yesterday.


Waving Hi to everyone that follows. BBL!
 
'Morning!
Belinda, how old are your dogs? Hope you don't mind me asking but lately walking my dogs is more like taking a sloooooowwwww stroll. Yesterday 3 miles took about an hour. Maybe it is still a little too warm for them. Two of them are 8 years old, but we've had others that were good walkers til almost 12. Like how you did something you were dreading.
Amelia, my friend hasn't answered yet about her inserts. I'll text her again when I'm done here. How are you darlings liking school this year? Just curious, do you do much cake baking and decorating when not at work?
Lori, hoodies and sweaters are fine for children to wear, you can still order lulu! My dh waits forever til turn on the heat. He often "forgets" about the upstairs where the kids's rooms are still they claim icicles are forming.
Kristin, I know you're Yankees fans but there was an article in yesterday's NYTimes that folks should go see that Mets pitcher AJ Dickey while they can.
Deb, did you leave for your trip? Hope you're having a great birthday celebration trip.
Did 40/20 hiit this morning and then a lower body blast premix. Started making sourdough bread this morning. As soon as it finishes baking, we're off to the Berkshires for the afternoon.
Cookie
 
Workout is done: I did Peak 10 w/ Michelle Dozois. That was a fun workout

Cookie - 2 off my dogs around 8 years old. My dogs don't like the head either. We usually walk the dogs very early in the morning or when it cools down at night. 5 min on the deck in the afternoon and they are done:D

I will be back later for more personals.
 
Hey ladies. Sorry I was MIA. This week killed me. I had Meet the Teacher Night for work on Thursday. No workout, obviously. Then Friday we went to keep my mom company after work. When I got home I went to bed while the boys watched baseball with DH. I was sleeping at 8:30, lol. I was sooooo tired. DH let me sleep in, which means until around 8 this morning. I needed to catch up on sleep. I get so anxious before school starts that I don't sleep well, and then having Meet the Teacher Night in the first week is killer too. The good news is I don't have to do that again for a year, lol. I had a good night though. A lot of parents complimented me on my presentation and organization. This week, although tiring, was great overall. Now I just finished cleaning and I am about to do some kind of cardio. We are going to the Madonna concert tonight at Yankee Stadium. Of course, there is a freakin' tornado warning, lol. I need a good cardio burn because I have had crap for dinner the last two nights and we plan on eating at the Hard Rock Cafe in the stadium tonight.

I will bb with personals after my workout.

Kristin
 
Workout done! I did Cardio Fusion. I thought I was going to drop in the middle, but I got through it. Now I have to pay the bills. . . I'm proscrastinating, lol. Then off to shower and get ready for the Madonna concert. I hope it doesn't pour!

Belinda- every Saturday morning I see the informercial on Brazilian Butt Lift, and I almost get it, lol. It looks like a tough butt workout, and people get nice results from it from what I see. When you do a workout from the Internet, do you just play it on your computer or do you have the Internet hooked up to your t.v. as well? Just curious because I have tried to do one or two workouts using my laptop or Ipad and it just isn't for me.

Amelia- what I love about the LIS are the short premixes for when you are short on time but want to do something. CSS 1-4 is enough to get you pumped for the day.

Cookie- When someone lashes out at me, I take it personally too. The truth is though, it is not about us. . . it is about their own frustrations. This year is going to be challenging with all the new things being thrown at us. We can either take on the challenge and stay positive or let it affect us and therefore the people around us. No matter what, I do not think it is fair for anyone to treat a colleague with disrespect. I have a few in my building that I am not allowing into my "circle" this year. I know it sounds high school-ish, but I need to stay positive if I am going to do my job well.

Lori- so are you having the yard sale? We had one when I was pregnant with my younger DS, and I did see a lot of weirdos that day, lol. I laughed so hard when you wrote, "I'll freeze my kids so I can buy more lulu." I hate paying for oil. HATE IT. That's why I ran out this last time, lol.

Deb- hope you are enjoying your time away.

Okay, I will bb tomorrow!

Kristin
 
Good Morning:)

Can't believe I didn't check in yesterday!:eek:

We had a little sleep in this morning. We are normally up by 6:40'ish but we slept till 8! I don't feel any better though cause the dog barked at 4:53 and I couldn't get back to sleep. And now there's no milk here so I can't seem to get the taste of my coffee right this morning. Ran next door to get a little and they have none either

Yesterday I did AB and 40 mins on the tm. I'm not sure what I will do today. I'm leaning towards just running outside. It's suppose to be nice. To answer LAURAs question from the other day, we are suppose to have bad weather tomorrow from issac but I haven't heard anything about it recently. I should check the weather channel.

The baby shower was nice yesterday. After the shower we ran to the mall nd I bought a new pair of jeans out of the gc I had...plus had to chuck in another $50 of course. I was surprised how much I loved wearing those skinny jeans yesterday! And mostly b/c when I was home they weren't dragging under my feet like my normal jeans.

Belinda** nice workout. I always mix things up when I don't know what to do and running on the tm for 40-60 mins is less appealing all the time but I guess I'll do it when the weather gets cold:confused:

Cookie** lol...I probably won't let icicles form...I turned the heat on in the babys room but he's the only one who is allowed to have the heat on:eek: ha! Actually, the other 2 still turn their fan on:confused:. I think it's a habit with DS cause it's certainly not warm enough.

Kristin** how was the concert?? You survived the first week of school....only a lot left to go:p. I'm looking forward to PTA meetings b/c I want to find out what they think of DS and how he's doing.

Bbl to report my workout!
Lori:)
 
Hey everyone. Just finished ME. I haven't done this one in a long time and it really was a great change to go back to a "classic". I was sweating buckets. The concert last night was absolutely amazing. It did rain there, but it stopped when she got on stage. She is so incredible. The dancing, the whole show is just so entertaining. We ended up getting at home at 2:30 a.m. Then DS woke me up at 7, :eek:. I thought I would die. Thank God for coffee!

Lori- I am jealous of your sleep in this morning, lol. I cannot believe you do more cardio after AB. AB kills me to the point that I lie on my mat during the stretching, lol. Way to go. BTW, a male teacher said to me on Friday, "only 39 more Fridays to go," lol. I'm not ready for a countdown just yet :rolleyes:

Okay, bb later.

Kristin
 
Good Morning

Yesterday was a rest day. I planned on running but it was soooo windy after lunch, then the baby was late taking his nap, then it was dinner time. I thought my mil was having turkey and salads but instead it was turkey with all the fixings! So there was no way I could run after that. I was in bed before 11 though which is odd for me. Baby was awake at 12 and 5 but I feel good. Is it not weird that he wakes every morning at 6:48? Lol

I'm not sure what I willbe doing today. My parents were going to come here last night after church but they didn't after. My plan was to do a nice long run this morning, now that they aren't here I'm wondering if I should go back to my original plans of weights in the a.m and run in the afternoon. I think they are coming here for the day so I could run after lunch but it looks like its going to rain. I also want to wait and see if ctx arrives today....or any of the other DVDs I have ordered! If not I'm leaning towards the GS's.

Kristin** yeah it's a little early to count down. Sounds like me when I was pregnant. I think I was counting down right from the time I started throwing up:confused:. I really need to call the dr to make sure THAT never ever happens again! Right now I'm not concerned cause I'm home alone but I should figure out what to do while I'm waiting for DH to get something done. Glad to hear you had a good time at the concert. I wouldn't expect anything less from the material girl!

Oh...I have a crawling baby! He's still getting the hang of it but he's doing it. I should won't be able to sit for long periods. I should go get him, he has himself jammed between the wall and the couch...he's stuck! Ha!

Lori:)
 
Morning girls, I need to go back and read and see what everyone's been up too these past few days. I forgot to come on her Saturday and post my workout. I did Afterburn and was so proud of myself because I was tired when I started it.:D

Its amazing what your body can get used too once you start making a habit of something. This is my third week of being fully committed to workouts and even though I'm a little tired from work, I've noticed that about 80% of that 'tired' feeling is all in my head. Once I start that workout I'm fine.

ok, enough rambling :eek:

Today I'm working 2nd shift for the first time in a few weeks so I have time to get in a nice workout before work. :) I will bbl to report it and to catch up on personals. I've got some drama at work that I need to vent on:eek:
 
Just got back from a nice power walk at a local park. I walked for about 45mins but no idea how far? oh well, I got a good sweat going but the only thing I didn't like about the trail was the path. Half of it was this big chunky gravel and it hurt my feet:confused:

Cookie-Fresh sourdough bread sounds yummy. Our sourdough bread isn't fresh at the bakery, it comes in frozen from a distribution center ( like everything else :rolleyes:) Nice job on your workout. To answer you question about cake decorating at home. I probably would if I had the tools too but I don't...maybe when the kids get older its something I will look deeper into, cause I really enjoy it:)

Lori-aww at your crawling baby, sigh - I remember those days. Did you get your dvd's? Have a nice workout today.

Kristin-I didn't know your pregnant :eek: congratulations!!!! have a great day today

Deb-hope your having a nice time:)

Belinda-How are you doing this morning?

ok girls. Off to get my lunch packed and logged for the day.
 
Hi girls,

Today I am starting the Brazil Butt Lift Slim & Shape rotation. I will do Booty Basic = 15 min and Bum Bum = 31 min. I also plan on doing the Butt Bible L1 (2nd week) = 30 min.


I will be back later with personals.
 
Hey Girls

Enjoying some nice quiet time. The baby is still here but the house is kid free:D

My workout was GS UB (ex back) and 13k outside. When my parent arrived I was ready to go. It's windy but I had a good run.

Belinda** so are you gonna take before and after pics of your behind??:eek: lol

Ameila** I know..sometimes it's hard to get going. 95% of the time i workout in the morning so I'm not tired. If it were any later I'd feel the same. But once you get moving, you end up feeling energetic.

I may bbl. I should go get myself a coffee!

Lori:)
 
Hi everyone,
At the airport with a 2 hour delay:(. Not the best airport to be stuck at not much food to be found. Wish I didn't have work tomorrow landing at 10 PM. The trip was fun, food really good but there is some really trashy places needed to avoid. 1st night didn't realize 2 for 1 drinks meant 2+shots in every glass so the 1st day spent the day sick in the room at one point sleeping on the bathroom floor. The pool area was really pretty. No workouts but walked everywhere. New Orleans is a pretty city but parts are really dirty & lots of drunks & smokers so once was enough for us.

Great workouts everyone!!!!!

Lori - Is DS doing better with school?

Belinda - How do you like BBL? Lots of Washington DC fans & West Virginia fans here this weekend for football.

Kristen - I'm sure the Madonna concert was awesome!!!!

Amelia - Great job getting your w/o's in.

Cookie - Do you have any visits planned to see DS?

Debbie
 
Good Morning

Well...back to taking care of kids today. They cancelled school b/c of the storm, which right now, doesnt seem any worse then a heavy rainfall. I'm guessing the wind hasn't kicked into high gear yet. This is the first time in my life I remember school being cancelled for this kind of weather. Snowstorms...all the time....rain...never!

I am sooooo sore from GS yesterday. I guess it's been a while since I did it...ouch,ouch,ouch!!! My chest was sore yesterday evening so I knew I was in for it. This kind of makes me realize that I think this rotation I have been struggling with should incorporate GS and CTX. I just don't have ctx yet, I think it should arrive this week though. Today is gonna be cardio, GS legs and back. I'm not sure what kind of cardio, i usually start out on the tm and then go from there.

Deb** sounds like you had a rough start to your holiday!:eek: it's been a while since I've slept on the bathroom floor but I've certainly done it. Smaller airports are nice when you have tight connections but that's about it. Regina airport (where DH is) sucked. All they had was a Tim hortons. And our airport has NOTHING! But this isn't a connecting airport, it's the end of the line! Lol you can't go any further so when people arrive here this is where they are staying.

Ok...so today is midterm day!!!!!!!! He starts at 7:45, which is 11:15 and He has two hours to do it, he feels good about it so let's keep our fingers crossed!!!

Bbl!
Lori:)
 
Morning everyone. I did my workout after putting the boys to bed and then I didn't want to miss Housewives of NY, so I never went online. I did Slide and Glide Cardio plus abs premix. I was too tired to anything other than I short workout. Things are going well, so far so good. I just need to adjust to waking up so early, lol. Being up at 5 a.m. is just not fun, lol. Working out at night after doing it midday all summer is an adjustment too. Today will probably be a rest day because we have meet the teacher night at DS school.

Amelia- I am not preggo. I think Lori and I were talking about counting down to the end of the school year, lol. I told her that a male teacher at my job said, "Only 39 more Fridays to go," and she said she did the same kind of countdown when she was preggo. Sorry for the confusion. Now, I will be super careful this month, because I cannot have another baby, lol. I am so superstitious, lol.

Deb- glad you had a good time. I think it is kind of tragic that such a beautiful city has that "darker side" to it. It has a lot of beauty in it, but the trashy parts take away from it.

Lori- good luck to your husband today!!!

Belinda- how is it going?

I don't want to bring any of us down, but it has been 11 years, and it just doesn't seem like it could be 11 years already, if that makes any sense. It still feels so raw. . . and I didn't even lose anyone that day. My heart breaks for those who lost loved ones. On a brighter note, at least COngress finally agreed to oay for cancer treatments for those who were part of the recovery and are now battling with cancer because of it. It took them long enough!

Kristin
 
Morning, Im off today and tomorrow :D:D I plan on doing some cleaning and washing the dogs...there getting a little doggy smell to them:confused:

Not sure what today's workout will be today? I need to do weights so maybe some muscle endurance or High Reps.

The scale is not cooperating this morning, I must be holding onto water :rolleyes: I remember back when I was losing weight I would lose 2/3 lbs every other week and I blamed it on the weight lifting....

Belinda-Love the name of those workouts, tooo cute. How is your 'bum bum' this morning?;):p

Deb-Hope you had a good nights rest last night! Sorry you have to work today:( How is your son doing?

Kristin-OMG - well don't I feel like an idiot:eek: sorry:eek: guess i just got the @ss end of the conversation then LOL. Im sorry. Nice job on your workout yesterday.

ok. BBL
 
Morning girls,

Lately has been crazy here, getting lots done. We finished DH's work shop and 95% of the garage is done too. DS and I been working in the garage the last few day's. He is a lot of help around the house, lol. He also made Alesia go into the garage to go through her boxes. LOL! By the end of this week we should be done. We have way to much grap!!!

Our German Shepard mix bit my son's dog 2 weeks ago? We don't know why he does that? Yesterday we took him to K9 dog trainer. The training was over 2 hours.

Lori - I will take before and after pic of my behind! LOL!

Debbie - so far I like BBL. Have lots of DOMS. Glad you had a good time.

Kirstin - glad you had fun at the concert.

Amelia - my Bum Bum is sore, lol!

Today I will do Cardio Axe and Tummy Tuck.

Waving Hallo to Amelia and Cookie.
