Controlling the Damage with Insanity...Sat!

[gidget1978]

Good Morning!

I would love to read through yesterdays thread but Im not gonna b/c this computer is driving me looney! My coworker came and picked up my work computer, DH didn't bring his computer cord home so now I am stuck using another computer that is super slow and is driving me mental! Not good first thing in the morning!

Soooo, with all that said I am up early to get a workout in before we go to the wedding. The wedding is at 1 and we have to drive about an hour to get there, then the reception is at 6:30 and we have to drive another 30-60 mins after that. I can have a nap when I get to my hotel room anyway. After my alarm went off I was lying in bed trying to figure out what I was gonna wear as a coat? I don't know if I have a dressy coat...although, Im sure I do. I had a coat put aside at DH"s store the other day but I ended up putting it back on the floor for someone else to buy.....prehaps I should go get it?? I dunno!

Yesterdays workout was 8 miles on the TM. I did CC # 5 and 2 part of CC# 4. Im sure everyone had great workouts yesterday and you are all behaving yourselves!

I will take some pics of the wedding and post them when I get home!!

Have a good day everyone!

Good Morning Ladies!

I slept until 7 this morning! WOW! *twirls finger in air and * lol

Went to another "Passion Party" last night. heheh. I'm probably going to end up booking one for the beginning of next year. Should be interesting!

DH dropped DS off at his mom's last night. I will pick him up on Sunday. It'll be nice to have the day today to get stuff done and not have a little one at my heels. I love him but hearing "mom" every ten seconds or just being followed around while I am trying to do housework can make me crazy!

Not sure what work out is on tap for today. I haven't looked yet. I'll check it out in a bit.

Jacque:: There's been debates on the O/F here for a long time now about weather or not Insanity is HIIT or just very intense interval training. I don't really care what you wanna call it. The fact of the matter is that it is kicks my ass and it works! That's all I care about! Yes, Friday has new meaning now that I go to a "REAL" job every day. Granted it's not full time (yet!) but it's still a far cry from what I had been doing. lol

Diana:: Bummer about not hearing back from your friend about the run for yesterday. Maybe you can gtg with her this coming week instead. Yeah-I am probably going to stick with M1 Insanity work outs while doing the X...if that's actually what I decide to do. I think pairing up an intense lifting program like that with M2 work outs would be too much and I would be setting myself up for failure. When I go back to SS I will use M2 work outs!

Laura:: Glad your knee behaved for you during class. So what Insanity work out will you do this weekend? Any fun plans?

Lori:: Get yourself a wool coat. That's always nice for colder weather weather you are dressed up or down. It works all the way around!!! I have 2...a full length and a short one. I love them both and the full length is sooooooo warm!

Jen:: You better show up here today, girl!

Okay, gotta go for now but I'll BBL!

Morning girlies ! ! !

Well I slept wonderfully last night again. I think it is definitely the meds though and wonder what will happen when I am done with them. One of them is being tapered up and it is definitely making me tired. Yesterday by mid afternoon I needed a nap. And then we had a dept meeting with just the managers - more work to do ! UGH ! Between being tired and then having more work piled up when my pile is already at least a foot high (that is NO lie) I just didn't feel like working out so had DH take me out to eat sushi. It was the perfect remedy. My mood lightened by the end of the dinner and then I came home and went to sleep . . . leaving my frustrations way behind. Now they won't hit until Monday and we have a Sharks game tonight so it will be a good weekend - if they win it will be even better !

Lori - sorry about the bummer computer. I understand since I just hooked up our 2nd computer via wireless router a month or so ago cuz it was a dog and DH was always on the one with DSL. I'm sure you will be (or are having) fun at the wedding. Why such a long time between the wedding and the reception? Guess it made a good reason for you to stay overnight though, huh?

Wendy - I guess you are right about it not being "true" HIIT which should be shorter intensity with rests in between. I never make it all the way through without short rests anyway so for me it is HIIT ! Well with all these parties you keep going to you should be pretty well set, huh? Hope you plow through your chores quickly so you can have fun today.

Diana - agree it is a bummer about the running partner you 'thought' you had. Ah well, sounds like you made up for it with the stairs/laps routine the other night after class. What is your weekend looking like?

Laura - WAR EAGLES ! ! ! GO TIGERS ! ! ! ! ! Hope you enjoy your weekend after the workweek you had. You are definitely getting bombed due to the economy. It is so hard when you have people coming to you and you know they are down on their luck - it probably gets really tiring trying to sympathize with so many of them. Maybe next week will be better for you.

Jen - so did ya make it through the week OK and plan a FUN FILLED weekend to make up for it? Or you just gonna veg to recoup?

Well for me I'll be accompanying DH to Kmart in a few for another Hot Wheels box opening ceremony looking for Treasure Hunts ! Then it will be baseboards to put in for the room I just painted - hopefully the new closet doors too. Need to find some fabric for a swag to go over the blinds too. Hopefully I can shop for that on the way home from Kmart - not on the way, but a short jig - Trader Joe's is near also and I need cranberry juice.

Should get my FB workout in today before the game as we will be having last night's marinated pork tenderloin before the game so won't have to leave as early.

Well that is my story and you have probably fallen asleep reading it ! Have a great day girls !

Good Morning Ladies,

I slept really good last night. MIC yesterday was awesome! Can't believe I just said that. I did have to forgo the last 10 minutes so I wasn't late to work. I felt really great during that workout.

Not sure what I'll be doing today. I'm leaning towards legs and a cardio of choice. I've decided I don't want to start another STS rotation until Shock Cardio come out. I want to use those together and I'm sure Cathe will be posting a rotation. I've been missing the GS w/o's and am going to try using them for a few weeks. Oh-I'm so excited, my polar F11 is on its ways back to me. Both batteries have been replaced, it will probably show up Monday, but maybe today if I'm lucky.

We have errands to run today, filling the propane tanks, hair cuts etc. Nothing worse than trying to girll steaks and find out the tanks are both empty. I'm also going to organize some stuff in the kitchen and my workout notebooks etc.

Lori-have fun at the wedding tonight. I'm sure you will look fabulous. Nice that you have your workout out of the way so early today.

Wendy-Enjoy your kid free day today! It's so nice to have a day of peace and quiet. I'll definitely use Insanity w/o's, but in between weight days.

Jacque-Sounds like you have a busy day planned. Have fun shopping! I'm sure the room will look great when it is completed.

Jen-What are you up to today? No bailing out on us this weekend. I plugged my GWF in and it's still flashing red. I was hoping it would be green before I started my workout.

Gotta grab some food and shower but wanted to post quickly that I just finished my work out. CC&B was on tap but I wasn't feelin' it so I did my own thing....Jari's Ripped 1000 (most of it. I skipped a couple of the segments for various reasons) and then work outs 2 and 3 from MR which focused on core and legs.

Tmrw it's back to business with the true INSANE work outs!!! Only 5 more to go and this rotation is COMPLETE!

Hi Ladies,

I ended up getting a later start than I anticipated so there was only time for one w/o. I did GS Legs, love the ball work. I'm going to try to put a rotation together for the next few weeks and see how that goes.

Got DH to run errands with me...that never happens Plan on having a low evening, catching up on my recorded shows and maybe even watching a movie with DH.

Lori-have fun at the wedding tonight.

Jacque-have fun at the Game-Go Sharks. I can say it since they aren't playing the avs.

Wendy-what are you doing tonight?

later gators!
