D A M A G E C O N T R O L ~ Saturday

[Sunshine1528]

Good Saturday Morning to all !

Up at the usual time and there was no 'hanging' out in bed with DH snoring -
so here I am !

Didn't do legs yesterday because when I was shopping after work my legs felt weak so I came home and ate some carbs and proteins to see if I'd feel a bit stronger but not in enough time to feel the energy to workout so that is on today's list.

We have sun already and it is supposed to be a few degrees warmer. No set plans for today other than the usual weekend chores, tomorrow I'm going up to see DS, DIL & GS and then had to take Monday off cuz my vacation time is building up again and I'd lose it if I didn't use it.

Hope everyone has an enjoyable Sat AM and some fun plans ! ! !

Wendy - did ya make it back? How did it go?

Good Morning!

Late getting here...its almost lunch time! I went oncall last night and of course, found out that I had to be into work @ 7:30! Which left me with no workout time. It was pointless to try to get up at 5 and be to work on time. Orginally when I went to bed I had to be at work by 6:30...so when my coworker called and said I didn't have to be here till then, I just rolled over and went back to sleep And I needed it!

Not only that, does anyone else find that when they work out really early they are starving all day? Im pretty sure that its a combo of waking up early and working out. I was famished allll day yesterday! I have no clue how many cals I consumed! So I am thinking, if I could pull off working out in the night time then maybe I should do that? I won't be as hungry all day plus I get to workout before bed and not eat The only thing is, like last night, my SIL wanted to come over for a drink and then next thing we knew there were drinks and wings....like I needed that after all day Anyway...I am thinking about giving it a try and putting off my workouts until the evening (when I am working)

Jacque** I bet you are looking forward to tomorrow? Nothing like a grandchild coming for a visit Enjoy your day! I still have disc 3 to do yet....Im turning into a slacker

On that note, my plans were to get off of work, relax and then workout. I now have to come back @ 11 and we were invited to a friends house for dinner. I may be able to get my workout in after dinner, then shower and come back to work...doing my hair drives me crazy! BUT then I could sleep in in the morning! I just have to figure out if there is enough time. I need to be HERE by 10:30...no later, which means I would have to workout by 8:30.

BBL!
Lori

Hiya girls!

I'm still alive and kickin'. I know it's been awhile.....I have just not been spending much time on the computer.....just peeking in on you girls at times and peeking in on the OF, but not posting much. I'm not a very fast typer and I've been on so sporadically that I didn't want to post unless I could take the time to read and catch up.

I just finished week 1 of meso 2 last night. Ouchie! I will start week 2 tomorrow and finish it before I leave for vacation. Can't wait for some fun in the sun. I really should be packing right now....but I sooooo hate to pack.....and you all know how I love to procrastinate. So after next week will be my rest week and I will repeat week 2 when I get back since I don't want to miss out on the hypertrophy phase. BF said she would go with me 'once' to the gym on the ship. *lol* That's a pretty big commitment for her.

Jacque - Oooooo - extra vacation time to burn eh? Boy, I wish I had that problem. *lol* Actually, it's hard to drag DH away from work. It's all self-imposed of coarse....he's a workaholic! But, he says he does it b/c he wants to retire early. I'm all for it!! Actually, he just CANT sit still...bugs the heck right outta him. He's gonna be a mess when he actually does retire. *lol*
I wish we had your warm and sunny California weather. It's more like gloom and doom here. Still lots of white stuff outside. They were calling for rain and T-storms this weekend but that has apparently changed to snow. I love T-storms and was hoping it would get rid of this snow! The grey skies are also getting old.
Are you doing any type of rotation right now?
How's the hockey season going? Is it getting close to the end? How are the Sharks doing now?

Diana - So you're back to the meltdown class....and loving every minute of it I presume? *lol*
Are you doing STS?
Oh I can't wait til the boys get a little older and stop talking to me. *lol* JK....I think that's just the way males are.
Were you tempted to sign up for the RT this year?

Lori - Hmmm - sounds like you are not working at DH's store anymore. Is that good or bad?
When I exercise ealy in the morning, I find that I don't get nearly as much done during the rest of the day. I know I will not miss my w/o, but I will let other things slide. Mornings are generally my productive hours of the day....so if I sink that time into my w/o, I run out of steam. So, if I have lots to do, I let the w/o go until evening. I find that I run out of energy several hours after w/o so I save the w/o for evening. As far as the hunger.....muscle work always spikes it for me. It makes sense.....but geez! I guess I never really paid much attention to it when I work out in the morning.....I'll have to keep that in mind the next time I w/o early.
Sounds like you have a crazy schedule going on. Hope you get it figured out.

Laura - So PIA got put in her place??? Bout time eh? Now if only crazy Aunt would get what's coming to her huh?
How's the situation at the gym going? Are the owners doing any better?
Funny about the dogs and the snow. I'd be happy to send some more their way!
Any fishing plans in the near future?
Sounds like you job is still super busy.....how's DH's job going? The mills up here are hurting bad! There was a rumor going around that Weyerhaeuser was closing their doors. I certainly hope that was a vicious rumor, b/c they are a MAJOR mill up here. But, I wouldn't be suprised either.....things are pretty grim.

Wendy - So how was Vegas? I can't wait to go back there again....kid-less this time though. *lol* Don't get me wrong, we had a great time when we took the kids, and they are wanting to go back pronto, but would like to experience it w/o them. I'll bet you missed the heck outta Joey huh? That's the only bad part about fun adult vacations.
So sorry to hear about Sal's job. Things are just so ugly out there right now. Hope he can turn this into an opportunity to find something even better. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!!
Oh, BTW, thanks for the tip on Fashion Bug a while back. I never go there and stopped in the other day b/c of your post. I only had a few minutes to browse since the guys were waiting in the car for me, but still snagged a nice sweater for only $3! I could have done much more damage if time would have permitted.

OK - gotta get my butt off the couch and get some things done. Have a wonderful weekend girls!!

Hi ladies,

It's been a lazy Saturday morning for me. DH was home yesterday with a case of gout, so he ended up going in to work today. I lounged in bed and caught up on my recorded shows this morning and enjoyed coffee and breakfast in bed.

Now it's time to get off my duff and get going. I just dropped Jerod off at the rec ctr to play basketball. The house needs picked up and I have a bit of filing. I figure I should do it now before it piles up again!

The rotation calls for cardio but I'm putting it off. I had the lamprobe procedure done last night and I can't get any of the treated areas wet for 24 hrs. I don't want to be sweaty and stinky all day. I'll probably to CC PP on ext later this evening. Oh, and it hurt more than I expected. Hopefully the results with be worth it. Right now, it looks like I have a black eye. The rest of the spots were pretty small and don't look too bad.

I'm watching my nephews kids today, should be fun. I thought about taking them swimming, but I would have to get in the water with my nephew, he's only 4, and I'm quite certain I would be splashed in the face. If it's not too cold, we can go play in the backyard.

Jacque-No leg DOMs to report today. I did like the leg w/o yesterday, and hope you can get to it today. Enjoy your visit with DS, DIL and GS tomorrow.

Lori-I started tracking my calories and on Thursday only had 1700 cals and I woke up starving on Friday morning. I always w/o on an empty stomach but had to eat an English Muffin before my w/o. I felt okay since I was weights, definitely can't eat before cardio. I think you just need to workout whenever it best fits your schedule-whether that be morning or evening.

Angie-so nice of you to pop in again. Yep, Jacque and I are following the STS rotation, the shorter one. We will be starting week 4 on Monday. How do you like meso 2? I heard Cathe say she works one body part completely before moving on. I think I prefer those types of workouts. I'm enjoying meso 1 so far. You know me, I love my meltdown and bootcamp classes. I was only slightly tempted to sign up for the RT. I would love to go again but really need to spend my travel money on visiting my granddaughters. When do you leave on your cruise? Is it this week?? Whenever it is I hope you and Mark have a great time.

Wendy-Are you back from Vega??? Spill, how much did you win, or lose. Hope you had a great time and am looking forward to hearing the details.
