Commit to get Fit & Lean January 2016 - 2024

'Evening! Sorry for missing the past couple of days. Ended up traveling to Mexico for family matter for a couple of days. Flew to DC and then was to Mexico City. Two mechanical issues, sat on plane for four hours w/o water or food, then deplaned, they tried to get another plane, more delay. Finally after midnight offered us hotel, but needed to be back at airport for the rescheduled flight at 6 am. Ended up having to stay at airport. Next morning, got on plane - mechanical issue again, deplaned and had to wait for another one. More mechanical, and another delay. Ended up getting there 28 hours late! One of my sisters was to fly from FL to Houston, then on to CDMX. Her flight out of FL couldn't leave b/c plane coming in landed and tire broke off. Missed her connection from Houston, and had to spend the night there. Mechanical delay leaving CDMX but okay home. Except for 2 hours in immigration line to reenter USA. Only 3 workers were there. What a mess! Did a JS Shred wo today.

Deb, no rock salt up here either. It is so icy too. Hope things clear up before your flight. Bet you can't wait to see the new furniture.

Belinda, glad to hear your eyes are doing so well. If your instructor is using Zoom, you should tell her she can spotlight individuals to give them feedback and pointers.

Deanna, how are you doing?
 
Hi,

Today was a rest day. I went to have my hair colored. I spent the rest of the day getting clothes and gifts for my Grandson's baptism this weekend. Actually the shopping was for my older DS since last minute he tried on his suit and it is too small. I also ordered him a religious metal online and it seems too small. I will go to a jewelry store and see them in person.

Belinda - Great job with JS lower body. You have a very busy day tomorrow, good luck with your appointments. For zoom yoga the instructor talks to us for a few minutes before class and ask if we have any requests, injuries or anything we would like to work on. She then mutes all of us (only about 4-6 people) attend. She will correct us (by calling out our name) if we are on the wrong side or not in the pose correctly. She also ends the class by saying we can contact her with any questions or concerns. You wonder why your dance instructor changed things?

Cookie - Oh boy, that may be one of the worse plane delays experiences I have heard. It must have been frustrating and exhausting. That is a lot to go through even for a brief warmer day. I remember my Dad's wife saying going to Mexico is hard from Florida because you can't get a direct flight. She has experienced lots of delays visiting her family there. Take care and rest up, the weather is supposed to get better this weekend.

Goodnight:)
 
Hi,

No workout today. Very busy day.

Did you see Cathe’s presale? I wasn’t going to buy anymore workouts.

Debbie - My belly dance instructor used zoom belly dance like your yoga instructor before. I did her zoom classes constantly. I am not happy as to why she did that way? It beats me. I am still not happy, I will let my membership run out. I feel like I am doing a live class on YouTube rather than zoom. Sorry the religious metal was too small. I’ll bet your hair looks fabulous. I need a hair cut soon. So does Sadie.

Cookie - what a nightmare you experienced. Wonder what is going on these day’s with planes? You hear horror stories daily. Glad you made it home safe. Frustrating for sure. DD was on a yoga retreat last week, she had not problem. Take care and rest up!

Good night.
 
'Evening! Did Rev'd Up Rumble today. Another great Cathe wo! DD is coming in later tonight and tomorrow we'll go visit DS3, dil and grandchild for the day. Looking forward to seeing them.

Deb, so exciting about the baptism! That's a lot of running around.

Belinda, perhaps if you speak w/your belly dancing instructor, she'll reconsider which platform to use.

Deanna, how are you doing?
 
Hi,

Today was an upper body workout at the gym. I went with DH because we babysat afterwards, going to the gym that early is tough for me:)

Belinda - I'm sure you will sleep well tonight. I will buy the dvd's because, I can use the strength training ones at the gym. A yoga retreat sounds like fun.

Cookie - I haven't done Rev'd up rumble in a while, it was a good one. I see lots of people using the heavy bags at the gym lately. Have fun tomorrow, the temperatures are supposed to be warmer too!

Goodnight:)
 
Evening,

Today I did a belly dance.

Who is pre ordering Cathe’s new series?

Debbie - nice job on your upper body workout at the gym. Hope you had fun babysitting. Takes out a lot of energy.

Cookie - great job on Rev'd up rumble. Hope you had fun with your family. I did speak to my belly dance instructor. I doubt she will change it. It did tell her it feels like a live YT workouts now.

Good night.

Hi,

Today was a lot of steps no official workout. I ran a bunch of last minute errands to do for the Baptism tomorrow. I didn't realize how crowded the stores and traffic is on a Saturday. We went to my SILs for a get together tonight because my SIL & her bf are here from TN. My 2 BILs had an argument so it should be an interesting couple of days:(

Belinda - Great job with the Belly Dance workout. How many people participate in the online class? I am going to pre-order the DVDs.

Cookie - Have a good time with your family.

Goodnight:)
 
Evening,

Rest day for me today.

Debbie - I hope the Baptism today went well. Stores on the weekends are always crowded here. I try if I can to avoid going. I hope your 2 Bills can figure their differences out. I am going to pre-order downloads and DVD’s.

Hi Cookie

Good night.
 
Hi,

Today was a rest day. The baptism went well and the weather was nice. I am tired though:)

Belinda - It was a nice day for a rest day:) My BILs worked it out, happy about that.

Waves hi to Cookie

Goodnight:)
 
Good morning,

Today I did STS 2.0 TB Giant Sets is done. I had a great workout today. I needed a break from Jessica S. Love her workouts.

Debbie - glad the Baptism went well and your Bills workout it out.

Hi Cookie.

I will be back later.
 
'Evening! JS tb workout today. Wanted to go for a walk but it is still quite icy here. Temp was 40! Saw the play Life of Pi yesterday. I liked it a lot more than anticipated. The puppetry was wonderful and the set design was amazing!!! Looks like yesterday was a rest day for all of us.

Deb, glad your bill were able to work it out and that the baptism went well. You must have been so proud.

Belinda, glad you let your instructor know how you felt. You should sleep well tonight after that sis workout.

Deanna, how are you doing?
 
Hi,

Today was a walk outside, finally! A total body at the gym. It was nice to see the neighborhood again. They are building a home 1/2 way through our walk. It was a knockdown of a small older home (which had a lot of charm) but they have been building it for the last 2 years. All of our predictions to when it will be ready have been wrong:)

Belinda - That was a good change up doing STS 2.0 TB giant sets. It's good to mix it up so you don't get bored.

Cookie - Hopefully some of the warmer weather here comes your way. I have the book Life of Pi, but haven't read it yet. It's great you enjoyed the play. Great job with JS TB.

Goodnight:)
 
'Evening! Finally, like Deb, was able to get in an outdoor walk. Also got in Cardio Hit.

Deb, my youngest ds and his wife are building in NJ and I cannot believe how long it is taking! They're now hoping to be in by October. I generally prefer those older charming houses.

Belinda, nice job with sts. I agree with Deb, it is nice to change things up.
 
Hi,

Today was a travel day, lots of airport walking. We were up early to go to breakfast with my SIL & bf they leave real early tomorrow to go back to TN. We had a late afternoon flight, it was a long day.

Belinda - I hope everything is ok and you are getting nice weather.

Cookie - It must have felt good to get outside & walk today:). It was another nice day in NJ, I almost didn’t want to leave.

Goodnight:)
 
Hi,

I didn‘t relized my post didn‘t went through the last few day‘s? I did visit my son in DC last night. He was here for 2 day‘s. We went out for dinner

I did Lift, Move + Restore Functional Barre Fusion. Yesterday I did Functional Core Fusions. So far I like it.

I am doing this 2 months rotation, which give me a chance to play with LMR and STS2. https://mailchi.mp/cathe/announcing-cathes-next-workout-series-oadqwcv64s-9781115?e=8721c5da14.

Debbie - I don‘t know what happened with my posts? I am ok. Yes, we are finally getting nicer weather. Where are you going this time? Safe travels. Yes, change is good.

Cookie - good job on your walk. I love JS workouts, just needed a change.

Have a great day and workout.
 
'Evening! JS push/pull upper body today. The ice is melting! I'm hoping to get in walk tomorrow.

Deb, safe travels to FL. Hope all goes smoothly. Nice that you could get together with your sil and her bf for breakfast before both of you left.

Belinda, glad all is well. That's nice that you were able to visit with your ds. I chose JS today b/c te workout was not as lengthy.
 
Hi,

Today was a walk on the beach. It’s definitely more crowded here but the weather is better. I’m probably still colder than most still wearing a sweatshirt on the beach.

Belinda - Good to hear everything is good & nice weather is there. We are back in FL, trying to get use of the condo. Looks like a fun rotation. It’s nice you get to visit your son. Will you take the RV to see him this year?

Cookie - I’m hoping our ice melts, good to hear yours is. It’s so dangerous, the worse part of winter for me. Great job with JS & enjoy your walk tomorrow.

Goodnight:)
 
Hi,

I had echocardiogram early this morning. When I came home, I feel sleep I am so tried.

I did STS 2 Mat Yoga and zoom dance. I had to modify the kneeling part. My knees don‘t like kneeling.

Debbie - yes, you definitely want to get use out of your condo in FL. I can‘t wait for us to travel again soon. Our plan is to take the RV and see our son in TX this year.

Cookie - it‘s in the 60‘s here, not to bad. I hope you got your walk in. I can‘t believe you still have ice :(. Ours is all gone. It‘s always fun visiting my son/Dil if they have to travel to DC. Wished he would stay longer. Nice job on the JS UB, she has some great workout.

Have a great day and workout.
 
'Evening! A day with a lot of precipitation means no walk for me! Did get in a JS lb wo though.

Deb, glad you're enjoying your beach walks! Have you made a decision on whether or not to keep the condo? How's the furniture and place looking?

Belinda, 60s?!! You lucky person! Hope all went well with the echocardiogram.
 
Hi,

Today was a walk on the beach. It was cool out but we sat outside to get fresh air.

Belinda - Great job with STS Mat Yoga & zoom dance. You are having nice weather. I hope all went well with your test.

Cookie - Great job with JS lb. Hopefully it was just rain for you. We will keep the condo for a couple of years. Construction is still going on in the building so prices are down. We will see if the kids come with the baby. The furniture looks great, just waiting for one back ordered piece.

Goodnight:)
