Commit to get fit & lean for September!!

Good Morning:)

Yesterday was a busier day. I had the real estate agent come by and take pics of the house so I had to have the house in order, take pics down, declutter...not that there is a lot of clutter but ya know what I mean. So the house is officially on the market. Here's the link if you want to be noisy and see where i leave;)

All I did yesterday was ps chest and back. I planned on doing cardio later but didn't get around to it. I think today is going to be cardio mixed in with LBB. I may also do the punching combos from MMA boxing. On wed I did ps shoul,bics,tris and abs and...I don't remember what cardio!:eek: I know I did cardio....I am going to my parents house for the weekend and I will be running while I'm there.

No news on the moving front. We picked Alberta but in his letter he stated that if there was any openings now or in the future for east he would like to be considered for it. And then he stated why. He has a meeting with staffing in tues. I don't know if he talks and they listen or if they give him some kind of indication what might happen.

Belinda** so sorry to hear about your mil. It's always tough. No matter how old they are they are still our parents. Thankfully I still have mine and they are both in good health. Also the cathlete:(...did she have cancer?? So sad!

Deb** you guessed it....getting the house ready to sell. Sounds like you had a awesome time on your trip! Now he has to out do himself next year:eek:

Cookie** you were wrong...no 27 miles...or 200 burpees! Might I think I would have rathered done that then put my house up for sale. I don't think this is going to fly with DS to well when the time comes. He's had his grandparents around his whole life and his cousins right next door. It's going to take some adjusting.

Krsitn** does DH come home today? Lol...at the spell check! That happens to me all the time on this iPad! Sometimes I will read it after I post it and see all the mistakes!

I will bbl to report my workout!

Hi,

I was so busy today with work & preparing for DH's birthday weekend:) We're going to dinner tomorrow night & celebrating with a dinner at home Sunday with the boys. DH doesn't like desserts but will make one for the rest of us;)

Lori - Your house is beautiful, like the open floorplan noticed a glimpse of the workout room surprised you weren't in it:D. Your taxes are awesome if you lived in NY/NJ you would be missing a didgit:eek:

Waves hi to everyone!

Goodnight:)
 
Good Morning:)

Had a good sleep last night and the baby didn't get up until after 7:). That's a treat.

Yesterday's workout was 45 mins on the tm, mixed in with LBB. I'm gonns go for a run today, just not sure when.

Deb** oh my...I would die a million deaths if I had to add another zero to my town tax bill:eek:. I forgot to tell them that I was going to be gone this weekend. They put the for sale sign on my lawn yesterday...it's a weird feeling. Enjoy DH's birthday weekend!

Bbl!
Lori :)
 
'Morning!
Belinda, our thoughts are with you and your family.
Amelia, I'm breaking down and getting the less expensive one. Since I don't sleep well and know it, the more expensive one would probably just aggravate me by having me see the poor statistics.
Lori, the sign is up! We had a large move when my youngest sons were about 1.5, 3.5, and 7. The disruption to their routine was a challenge but it was harder for me, since I had to make all new acquaintances, get things situated, etc. It always seems that whatever goes on in the family the bulk seems to fall to the female. So is today the 25 mile run and 200 burpees? Did you forget the 300 situps the other day?
Deb, didn't realize you two had birthdays so close together! Sounds like a busy and fun weekend. Wish I didn't like sweets. Perhaps that what I need to convince myself of. Are you feeling better?
Kristin, did you dh return yesterday? Isn't it amazing how much we can miss them when they're away? While I may seem to complain about mine, he is a definite keeper.
Took yesterday as rest day but had lots of walking and stair climbing during the day. Of course, that pint of dark beer last night definitely counterbalanced any of that. Doing lower body in a few minutes. DH will probably want to walk again, and I have to go to a church festival.
Cookie
 
orning girls,

Thanks girls, means a lot to me.

Cookie - have fun with the church festival and LB workout.

Lori - glad you got some sleep last night, wished I could sleep through the night once....arrr. My MIL does not have cancer, at least not that I know off? I will check out your house.

Debbie - enjoy your husbands bday this weekend.

Kirstin - ROFLAO, about the sex press premix in AB. I thought it was a workout? LOL!

Amelia - what are you doing today?

Yesterday I did BBL Sculpt. Today I will do High & Tight and abs.

I will be back to report my workout.
 
Hello everyone! DH IS HOME!!! He got in at 6 this morning. He is pretty tired, lol. So am I for that matter. TOTM arrived yesterday. Between that, and it being a rainy Friday, I was in no mood to work out. Normally, I can talk myself into it, but this time, there was no way I was doing even a short workout. I am pretty disappointed overall in my workouts this month. I averaged five a week, when I normally do six. Plus my eating was pretty bad. I attribute it to being back to work, and stressed about all the new evaluation nonsense, but still, I should get some self control, lol.

Today I tried to make up for it. I did BM2, bootcamp premix. :)

Cookie- I complain all the time about DH, lol. However, I love him to pieces!!! And absence does make the heart grow fonder. The first day it's nice to have the bed to myself (we have a full, not even a queen). Then the novelty of having more room dies out and I am lonely and cannot sleep, lol.

Lori- Deb is right on about taxes. Your house looks beautiful. I think you'll get a bite fast. That "typo" was so funny. When I saw it later that night I cracked up. I get some pretty interesting autocorrections, lol.

Deb- Happy birthday to your DH. What kind of cake are you making?

Belinda- nice job on the workouts. Any news on MIL?

BBL,
Kristin
 
Hi,

This morning I ran to complete my neighborhood Kohl's. I forget how much traffic & how hard it is to get parking on the weekend:confused: This afternoon I did kickmax. I'm going to try & be good tonight at dinner:)

Belinda - Are you still in Florida?

Lori - If the neighbors don't know they will soon be asking lots of ?'s at least that's what happened to us. Are you researching the places DH may be sent so you can pick? Enjoy your run, hopefully no furry animals will follow.

Cookie - I feel better but don't sound to good. How is DD liking school?

Kristin - I'm making a cheesecake not my favorite but DH sort of likes it, can you imagine not liking desserts:eek: Hey 5 workouts is pretty good don't be so hard on yourself it was a busy month for you.

Amelia - What are you up to?

Enjoy the rest of the weekend:)
 
Good Morning:)

Had a even better sleep last night:eek: The baby didn't wake until 8!! I thought I was going to have a rough night b\c he is cutting his two front teeth. He woke about 3-4 times but he went right back to sleep again. I checked his gums and the teeth still aren't through but his gums are white so Im thinking any day now. He's such a good baby. He hasn't made a peep when cutting his teeth.

Yesterday I went for a 10 mile run and it was a good one. I felt good and the temp was perfect and my legs know that they ran yesterday...ouch! Im not sure what I will do today. We have church this morning, then my mom is cooking dinner and then I have to head home. I may do something tonight when the kids go to bed. I might get a early start on this weeks weight workouts.

Belinda** I asked if your MIL had cnacer only b/c that seems to be what gets everyone these days. My mil had breast cancer a few years ago and she's just been called back to have a mammogram done on her other breast b/c there seemed to be a fold...not a lump. Our hospital have had some issues so they call everyone back for the least little thing. Her Dr told her that 99.9% chance it's nothing but she is still worrying. She has to go back tomorrow. Dh doesn't nnow anything about this....I don't know what we do if there is something to it but I believe that she will be fine. It wasn't a lump...just a fold.

Kristin** I think 5 workouts a week with your schedule is pretty good. Maybe you should reserve your weekends for some nice long workouts and keep the shorter ones for the work week. The ipad is the worst for auto correct and then there are times when I think it will fix a word and it doesn't:mad:

Deb** I would imagine the rumors have started to fly around our little town. One of my coworkers text me yesterday and asked me about it. I haven't had any lookers yet thankfully...cause I'm not even home!

Cookie** Shoot!! I forgot the situps!:p There is something about a pint of beer and a church festival in the same paragragh that just seems wrong;)

I will bbl tonight!
Lori:)
 
Morning girls,

Rest day for me today.

Lori - good job yesterday and have fun at your moms house today. No problem, on asking if my MIL have cancer. You are right so many people have it. I will keep your MIL in my thoughts and prayers.

Debbie - thanks for asking about my MIL. She has difficult breathing. The doc will take her off the water meds next week, we see what happends. I am home, not in FL!

Kirstin - glad your husband is home. Enjoy your weekend.

Waving Hallo to Cookie and Amelia.

We are going to the DC Zoo today. I will try to be back tonight.
 
Hi ladies. Just finished LM. What a workout. I was sweating all over, lol. I still haven't preordered Xtrain. I plan on doing that with my next check. It is so nice to have DH home. The boys are really happy he is back. Yesterday was my dad's birthday, but they went to Foxwoods so we didn't get a chance to see him. My parents are coming over today for dinner. We are making loin of pork and we got a small ice cream cake to celebrate.

I went to the hair salon to get a touch-up on my color. I am getting more and more gray hair :eek::eek::(. Anyway, I was reading a magazine article on Stacy London, she's on that show What Not to Wear. I was surprised to find out she suffered from anorexia and overeating. Her lowest weight was less than 90 pounds and she is 5'7. Her highest weight was 180. She talked about how she finally learned to feel good about her body and that she loves helping women embrace their bodies and dress for success no matter what size they are. I had no idea. So many times I have watched that show and thought "Yea, easy for her to say, she's so thin." I always admired her sense of style, but now I admire her even more.

Belinda- hope you got to enjoy the zoo. Did you hear about that crazy guy that went into the tiger exhibit? I think it might have been in the Bronx Zoo. It was recent. Anyway, they say he was suicidal. A tiger attacked him, big surprise. They were able to rescue him though, thank God.

Lori- Congrats on a good sleep! I think I am going to take your advice and plan out a rotation with longer workouts on the weekends. I did it this weekend actually with BM2 and LM, lol.

Deb- I plan on eating better starting tomorrow, lol. Cheesecake is not my favorite either. Come to think of it, I do not care for cake at all unless it is chocolate.

Waving hello to Cookie and Amelia.

Kristin
 
Hi Girls

I arrived home earlier this afternoon. That drive makes me so sleepy. I did my workout when I got the boys in bed. I did GS UB but no cardio. It was 10 by the time I finished that. Tomorrow morning I am planning a run so I figured I would keep my energy for that.

Belinda** thanks for thinking of my mil. Her appt is tomorrow morning at 10 so hopefully we will know in the next few days. I think she is fine...at least I am hoping.

Kristin** I ordered x train and I don't even really know what it's about! Lol I just know I'll enjoy whatever workouts cathe releases. I hear you on the grey! I'm getting more and more all the time. I blame it on the teenage daughter, not the fact that I am getting older. Mine are stil, scattered though and I dont need to visit the salon ever 6 weeks yet! Not looking forward to the day I do.

Bb in the a.m.

Lori:)
 
Hi,

Today was really nice went to the Farmer's Market to get my vegetables & they are running out of tomatos:( I love homegrown tomatos. I ended up just making up my own lower body workout & just doing a bunch of different exercises.

Belinda - DH & I went to the DC zoo many years ago when the panda bears arrived. Are they still there?

Lori - Hopefully the baby is not too good or your might want another;) My 2nd DS made sure there weren't any more babies he was high energy! Kudos on getting your workout in tonight.

Kristin - I had a dessert for DH last night since he doesn't:eek: Ugh, on the grays remember when you could just pull out a couple here and there LOL. When were were in New Orleans at the pool we saw a girl (in her 20's) who was anorexic in a bathing suit & it was scary, she looked so frail it actually looked worse then seeing someone 400+ because I feared for her life. I've only seen it on TV so much worse in person & so sad:(

Waves hi to Amelia & Cookie

Goodnight:)
