Those calories sound really low for someone who is as active as you are - especially doing the weight lifting. I'm not a nutrition expert though, but it might be something to think about since it sounds like you're doing everything else right.

Roxie - I agree with Heather. I gave you the calories you should be eating. I know it wasn't below 1500. You definitely should be eating more.

I know you did and that is why I think I need to do wt. watchers because when I get doner logging an see how many cals I have left I use it as a reason to eat ice cream bars or chips I don't seem to know how to fit in more good calories in my meals. I just logged all my meals for today and I am at 1011, I don't know where to add more unless it is at brkfst.

Debbie - quick question about your Dec rotation. I started with shoulders rather than back/chest. Today I was going to do the back/chest workout and legs tomorrow (which puts me back on track). My mid-back is kind of sore though so how big of a deal would it be to swap it out again and do legs today? I know there is a method to your madness is why I ask.
Thanks,
Heather

Ok, after a long hard debate with myself, I have decided to take today as a rest day. Looking back at my workouts, I realized that I have not take a rest day in 9 days. 
Not good! My back is sore today too so I'm going to go home and do some over due chores around the house instead.

Wow! You guys have been chatty today!!! ...
Monday is my afternoon workout, I'm changing things up this week , because I can't work out Wednesday (Colonsoscopy day). So today I did a circuit, Cardio & Weight Premix from BM2. I found out too late there was no lower body work in it though. Oh well, I'll work on that later in the week. It was a fun, challenging workout though!! Fried my triceps !!!
Belinda: Yay for starting STS !!! I'm missing it, but also thinking I might wait until STS cardio comes, or maybe September start if I can't wait. I can always throw in STS cardio workouts when they come. Did you end up re-doing your 1 Rep Max's?
Karen: BM2 is wayyyy long, but fun!?!? Hope you got to do some of it anyways..
Bev: ME is a good one! Yes, those leg presses make me breath so heavy and make my heart pound too! The soup sounds interesting, do let us know how it is.
Heather: I hear ya on missing out on running when it's nice! I get all kind of sad when that happens too. And then I'll see people running by my house, and I am so jealous! I agree, you look awesome in your picture!! So you're even FITTER looking than that?
Patti: I have a similiar pancake recipe, i think, but yours look great too! will have to try them. OMG, PB is my most favorite food *drool*
Debbie: sorry to hear your workout got messed up today. I hate when that happens! KPC is good to mix it up , anyways!
Roxie: I am SOOO sure you are not as "fat" as you see yourself. I do that to myself all the time too. I just feel like my butt is so big ... I hate it!... but I know in reality it can't be, since I fit into a size 6-8. but my mind just doesn't see it. You got some great advice on calories and eating. Weight Watchers taught me a lot about portion control and what and when to eat. You could do the online version. I actually never went to meetings, did the entire "at-home" program, sent away for all the info/books/etc. and did it on my own .
*Waves* to Nora!! , hope you're feeling better and getting in some good workouts. My Jillian Michaels workouts came Saturday, so I'm very eager to try them out thanks to your reviews!!

Glad to know I'm not alone! I'm glad I took it though. I got a ton accomplished that I've been neglecting. I know I'll have more energy tomorrow too.

I know its late - but I'm back to report my workout. I didn't have a whole lot of time, so I did the UpperBody work on BM2, then 15 minutes on the treadmill, BM2 abs and stretch, then took our dog for a walk. I'm proud of myself for getting at least something in tonight and not letting it slide again.
Great workouts today everyone!

That's it! I hope everyone has had a great workout today and that your Monday was a good one.
