Daily Check In: Thursday, April 21, 2005

Oh Angie, I'm so sorry to hear that. Sounds like you're having one of "those" weeks. I'm sending hugs to you and your girls:)

I had a good workout last night. Did KM Bootcamp Premix and felt it wasn't quite enough so I did the last conditioning drill from KPC too, plus the abs. Tonight I might put together some kind of mish mosh using MM.

Traffic was hellish coming to work this morning. "OH MY GOD WHAT IS THAT GREAT BURNING BALL IN THE SKY, I'M BLI-I-I-I-I-IND!!!!". I wish people would just break down and buy some SUNGLASSESx( And tell me something. On a bright, beautiful day, roads completely dry - HOW DO YOU PUT YOUR CAR IN THE DITCH?

Thank you for listening to my rant. We now return you to your regularly scheduled program.
 
Shelley - LOL! Are you sure you don't live in Chicago?!? The traffic people on the TV and radio will warn drivers of "sunshine delays" when it's sunny out. Hard to see traffic when you have your hand in front of your face blocking the sun!

Thanks for the hugs - I need 'em today.

Hello Everyone,

Today is power hour, 45 mins jog on treadmill and coremax. Hope you all have a great day and great workouts!

Reba, I've never done a S&H rotation. I use S&H on it's own lifting really heavy (for me), splitting UB in two days and do it twice a week, but no more then two weeks in a row, cause like Cathe says, it's mentally challenging. And I use it in combo's in long workouts but no longer then just a week. I can always up the weights I use when I really go for it. But my endurance always suffers. If you'd make me do Power Hour right now, not sure if I'll make it through.

Dutchie :)
 
Morning all. Well, after not working out for 5 days due to being sick I had every intention of getting up this morning and working out since yesterday I felt much better. I woke up this morning and felt like crap, so of course I went right back to sleep. I can't seem to shake this cold. Not only that, but I got home from work last night and my husband was home with 102 degree fever. He has a sinus infection, but is on antibiotics now. I spent the night taking care of him and my one year old.

Sandra - So glad to see you back! Glad to hear you're easing your way back into it.

Wendy - So sorry to hear about your accident. That must have been quite a scare. Glad to hear everyone is alright, but also glad you are getting in touch with your doctor just to be safe.

Hope everyone has a great evening.

Hi Dutchie!

Yes, it was a huge fright. I had no idea that it was even possible to bleed that much and not be miscarrying. I have since learned that in pregnancy, anything is possible!! No one knows what causes placental separations. It happens in about 3% of pregnancies. My doctor tells me that it most likely wasn't anything I'd done, such as lift something heavy, etc. In the first trimester the placenta is building itself and working to attach to the uterine wall. The baby does not become dependent on the placenta until the second trimester. I think in the process of building and burrowing, bleeding can occur due to problems in the attachment process.

Fortunately, now that the situation has repaired itself, I am back to being considered a "normal" pregnant woman. The placenta is considered as healthy as any other. Thank heavens!!

It's good to chat with you again Dutchie! :)
Sandra
 
Hi Wendy!

BS didn't feel as easy as it used to LOL!! But yes, it was a good choice because it didn't wipe me out. It made me feel good to get the blood moving through the muscles again, and left me wanting to do more. That'a an ideal way to restart, IMO. And this morning I have been super hungry, so I must have done some good!

You have done amazingly well with your workouts, Wendy. I'm surprised to see that you're doing kickboxing again, after the pain you were feeling awhile ago. Is it no longer bothering you?

I agree that you have little to worry about, but on the positive side, perhaps you'll get another ultrasound as a result? :)

Cheers!
Sandra
 
Good afternoon all! Gauntlet for me this morning and then a walk w/ my son to the park. My muscles are really tired now so I think I might take a few days off. I still think I'm recovering from ME since I did it for the first time on Wed. Have a great day everyone!

Hi ladies.

Just wanted to let you all know...doc just called me back...he said not to worry. He asked if the baby was moving around like normal (he is) and I told him how I didn't even feel the impact of the seatbelt on my belly-the impact was pretty minimal-and he said not to worry about it then. He said they would monitor me if there were direct trauma to my belly and he also said it happened a couple of days ago already and the baby is still active so he wouldn't worry. YEAY! :7

Thanks for the advice ladies! As much as I didn't think I had anything to worry about, it's always nice to hear the doctor confirm it!:) And I will see the doc on tuesday so I will get to hear that precious heart beat again!!!

Wendy, I am sorry about your wreck! Where have I been? I am happy everything is okay. Let me know the next time you go out so that we can sete up a perimeter and snipe all the crazy drivers!
 
LOL!

Unfortunately I rear ended this guy. It was a chained-reaction of cars stopping short and I was the unfortunate fool who couldn't stop in time. x(

Hi Sandra, glad that you are back with us and that everything is ok with your pregnancy.

Wendy, glad that you checked with your doctor and that he said everything was ok.

I did Hardcore Kickbox Circuit today and now I am off to grocery shop with my 3 boys.LOL!:7

Hope you all have a great day!!:D
 
Annette - grocery shopping with three boys sounds like a workout in itself! "Put that down, no you can't have that, no I don't want to see you balance those pickle jars, no you can't ALL fit in the cart, okay, okay, but only ONE each! NO RUNNING".
 
Hi ladies:

I haven't checked in a a long while, but I have lurked periodically. I was in the middle of one of the Hard Core rotations when I had a cold followed by a sinus infection followed by another cold. Needless to say I couldn't do a whole lot for those 3 weeks!

I eased back into working out by doing the CTX DVD for a week and then went all out just this week. It's good to be back. On top of it all, my job has been insane pretty much since January--but it might, just might be calming down now.

I was so happy to see Sandra back that I decided to join back too. Wendy--so exciting, less than a month to go. Ms. Limecat: you have been killing me with your posts--love your sarcasm.

Today I did GS Legs after doing IMAX 2 yesterday. Yes my legs have pretty much had it!
 
Shelley, that is just about how it went, and for some reason it took longer too,sigh.:( My youngest had the gimme's and the oldest tried to be "mom", the middle one was trying not to talk so he was making all other kinds of jirations to get my attention,LOL!! He did finally give up when the youngest wasn't playing along. :D Thank goodness there weren't any balancing of pickle jars nor did they all want in the cart, but I did say "No, you can't have that, and put that down" more than my fair share, along with " Move!! You are in the way of that nice lady" "Didn't I say MOVE!!!" All in all we are home now, whew!!! It was a workout!!LOL!!:7

Have a nice evening!!:D
