COMMIT TO GET FIT & LEAN FOR SUNDAY!

[bayerngirl]

Good morning everyone,

Yesterday I did CCC! Had a very busy day yesterday, getting ready for our move. Almost talked myself out of working out, glad I didn't! I didn't get my abs in yesterday, I will do them today! Maybe I will fit in a stretch

I still have 4 more giant boxes I have to go through, in the basement. Our house in Germany is over 2800 sq.ft. not including the basement/attic or the the storage building/garage I have a huge house and yard! Why do you think, I am always cleaning have to keep up! LOL!

We put our house up for sell on the military website, hope we will sell it soon!

I need to do more packing, didn't realize I own so many cloth, I guess I went a little crazy shopping this year, lol! Still need to clean out one of the frige (we have 2 giant ones) and stove today.

I will try to be back later! I hope!

Good Morning Ladies

I can't believe I'm having such a hard time lately... I did get a workout in Friday night with my friend,there. That brutal lower body one. Rested yesterday! But the doms are even worse today!! Might just go for a light walk outside and do some stretching and abs. I don't know....I can't believe how down I"m feeling. And the sugar cravings are unfreaking believable...so out of character!!!!!!
Glad I can vent here,because outside of here I have to pretend constantly that my life is just so perfect and I'm always happy and everything is great.....*sigh*.
And I beat myself up for it, because I ,of all people, knows that the rug can be pulled out of underneath you at any given moment, so wtf am I so worried and down about.
I'm pretty sure post show blues are officially here. lol.

Ok....DONE with the pity party...again!!!! I think a lot of my stress is financial.....trying to make it without the second job is almost proving impossible, and I'm really down to the wire. I'm sick of having my parent's help ..... it's a blow to my huge ego! Ugh.

Belinda- Wow...packing it in,huh?? Time is getting closer!! Glad you can wait to have his surgery in the states.

Kristin- I can't complain, your life is nutso...LOL. How often during the week are you coaching?? Yeah, and I understand that most girls are within 10 pounds of their competition weight, but I'd like to stay in some of my clothes that were tighter! lol. I know to live a little, but lately I've been wanting to live a lot! lol

Lori- When are you leaving for vacation?? I feel like no one will be here next week because we'll all be gone! Yeah I know "whiny" is fugly...*sigh*..LOL. I don't wear the color often.....usually around ttom time, though.

Trish- It wasnt' a Savage workout. My guy friend that I workout with, it was his. I let him take the reigns for a while in what we do when we work out together. We did my stuff for bit, but now that competition is over and I'm feeling better (physically), it's time to experiment! When are you leaving?? How are you feeling?

Amelia- Here's how I ran my bar.....if you on the phone, you don't even get looked at.... To me, it's the rudest thing you can do....well no,what's rude about is if you're on the phone and looking at the service agent EXPECTING to do two things at once or for someone to wait on you. I don't normally deal with cravings,my cravings are " I just want more food"....not necessarily sugar! Sometimes green beans and mustard take care of it! OR....Butternut squash! It usually takes away any sugar craving.

Melissa- Omg how was your tasting???? I'm so damn envious!!! I haven't tried those bars! But it's so few and far between,I'd hate to have them in the house...lol

Deb- Glad you tried Athletic Step too!! I love both! Give them time...

Hi to Helene and Cookie!! I think that catches me up?? BBL

Good Morning

Let's try this again. I tried to post on DD's computer but some how my post was deleted....thank goodness I only just started it.

I stayed in bed until DS woke me up. When we got up DH was already awake and that's a rare situation in itself. As soon as he seen DS I knew what was going on. He said " I got up b/c I was having a panic attack about leaving him". Here we go...here is the start of it. He is the one who never wants to take the kids and then he is the one who whines the most.

Today I need to do the remaining things on my list. I need to get some groceries, get my clothes ready, buy comfy sandals and some glasses and make a list of DS's schedule for my mom. Although, she may take him to her house for the week but who knows how that's gonna go.

Yesterday I did 16k. Haven't done that in a while. Good news is...my time was faster then the last time I did a 10 mile race in the city! Race time is always faster....so now I really wanna do that race this year. Plus it still gives me a few months to work on more speed If not I should probably be able to cut a couple of mins off of my last time.

Belinda** If I had to pack this place up now, I would cry. To much crap. And then there are the things that I don't wanna get rid of but things no one uses...like DD's VHS Disney movies. So maybe you have a problem with buying clothes as well.... I bought a cute little dress at walmart yesterday for $16...nothing wrong with that.

Iris** Oh dear...does it normally take this long for the blues to kick into high gear? I feel for you b/c its a terrible feeling but your's is worse then mine. I didn't alter my diet when I was training, I just ran. I am sure you will snap out of it soon. Is the option for you to work at the bar still there for some extra cash?

Ameila** Sounds like you have a nice weekend with DH planned Its nice to have days off together.

Melissa** LOL..what did they think you were gonna do with 2 cups? To funny!

Deb** Its a nice weekend here but soooo cold! When I was running yesterday my thumb started to get cold b/c that wind is bitter!!!

Trish** Where are you going on vaca and for how long?

My workout plan today is another run outside and HR. I should be able to get some good workouts in before we leave for our trip. The lady I usually train in the morning is away on her vaca and the other day I train...I still haven't heard from. Actually, she wanted me to come over for coffee yesterday but to by honest, I just don't have the time to sit and listen to someones prob's right now.

I will bbl!

Lori

Morning ladies!! Busy day today: I have a ton of studying to do and a lab group meeting this afternoon. UGH, I hate group meetings! My group is fun but I think we get along a little TOO well because we don't get any work done!

Today is some sort of cardio, not sure what yet. I'm thinking some kind of step premix, maybe the one from Intensity??

Belinda, holy cow 2800 sq ft?! You must have a lot of work ahead of you! But you can do iiiiiiiiit!! When is the big moving day?

Iris, did you send the ice cream demon my way?? Last night I had ice cream on the brain and as much as I tried to fight it, I needed it so I caved and bought some Embarrassingly enough, that was my dinner I hear you on the financial stress. It is SO hard. If it makes you feel any better, I think everyone is going through the same issues, only we don't know about it because they don't really talk about it. Everyone our age I know is in the exact same boat. The tasting was awesome! I sold 2 cases!!! When I left the store had 3 bottles left LOL. The rep for the product was there and he's like "Melissa, you don't NEED to push sales" and I'm like I know but I'm super-competitive! lol!!

Off to do my WO. Have a great day ladies!

Hi all! Yesterday I completed disc 36 of STS!!! ALL DONE!!!! I definitely see more definition in my upper body. I liked plyo legs, but I wish I had the squat rack option. I just don't have room for the rack though. Maybe I'll buy the vest and just go a little lighter with the barbell weight. Don't know. . .

I have a bit of a head cold. My nose is so stuffed. I have cardio planned for today, not sure what though. I have essays to grade, so that is what my goal is for today. Get it done! Tomorrow is the second and last practice before game day, which is on Saturday, which we will be in Florida, lol. I have two guys that will take over for the game. Then when I come back, we will be playing every Tuesday and Friday.

Belinda- 2800 sq ft!!! That is a lot to go through and clean, my God! I complain about cleaning my little 900 sq ft house, lol. With the two little ones and the small space, it gets cluttered and messy fast.

Lori- WTG on your 16K!!! The mos tI ever ran was 10k, and not for a race or anything, lol. I mind of miss running with my ipod. I have the nike plus for the ipod and sneakers. Maybe I'll start up again when it gets warmer out.

Melissa- Have fun and get your work done today, lol Group assignments can be a pian because either you like the people too much and little gets done, or you hate everyone and want to shoot yourself when you have to meet up with them.

Iris- We only have two practices and then it is two games a week. Last practice is on Monday. I know what you mean about the clothes. When I got my TOTM a week or so ago, my pants were just a little snug and I felt disgusted. My wieght always fluctuates by five pounds or so. My eating has been horrendous. MEso 3 made me way too hungry and DH keeps bringing junk into the house!!!!

I'll bbl,
Kristin

Workout done! I decided on Low Max today but only used 1 riser My legs are still fried from STS and Insanity!

Kristin, yeah I hear you on the plyo legs. I'm starting M3 next week and still not sure if I wanna go the squat rack way or plyos yet. I don't have a rack either, so I'd have to use the vest too. Kick that cold outta here before Florida!

Hi Ladies!

I took some time for some Mind/Body today. I think these super intense workouts aren't exactly helping. I feel much better now!! AND...I just submitted my success story! Soooo....we'll see what happens!!

 

[jnka825]

Quick evening check in to report I did Low Max intevals 1-4 premix and then the ab work from BM2. Buckets of sweat nothing like switching it up

Good night all!

Kristin

Hi girls,

I did plyo legs today, thinking about trying (not sure if it will happen each week) doing both squat legs & plyo legs for Meso 3. I tried on a bathing suit and I don't like the way my legs look, could be the 5lbs I'm up I made my tomato sauce for Easter today.

Belinda - Wow, for some reason thought you lived in a much smaller home or apartment in Germany. For awhile there I was starting to clean up in case we did move but have not been good, I too would cry like Lori if I had to move tomorrow

Iris - It really hasn't been too long since your competition so don't worry too much. Did you ever hear back from the 2nd job you were applying for?

Lori - It's always great to go away when the weather is bad back home hopefully it will warm up on your return.

Melissa - Too funny about your group, wondering if you meet at school or the local bar

Kristin - I do squat racks with a 10lb. vest and so does Cathe I like it but don't have room for a rack either . . . guess I could do it at the gym.

Hi Amelia, Trish, Helene & Cookie - hope you had a great weekend.

Goodnight

Good evening,

Iris - we still haven't gone to Landstuhl hospital to see a military surgon, we will do that on Friday! DH has an appointment for surgery in the next 2 weeks, we are not sure if he should get the surgery or not? He needs to see and talk to a military surgon first! Maybe you should take a full recovery week and relax?

Lori - believe it or not I still have all VHS Disney movies, not sure what I will do once I am in the states. You found a dress for $16, what a dreal! LOL! Awesome job, on that run! You go girl!

Melissa - have fun with studying and group metting this afternoon. I still have a lot of work to do, not looking forward. WTG, on LM today and leg DOMS.

Kirstin - Congratulations on finishing STS! Great results, girl! What will you do next? Hope you feel better soon. Nice job, on LM as well!

Debbie - nicely done on your leg wo today. Have fun doing plyo leg and squat legs! Your legs will be fried, lol! LOL, I have a huge house here in Germany. The reason, we clean out hour house constanly is, we have to pay if we are overweight (we only can ship so many pounds, which is plenty!)

Good night, ladies!
