Morning Glories!

I am sooooo stoked that it's friday. It wasn't a BAD week but it just seemed to drag on foreeeeeeever! ICK! :rolleyes: Tonight DH's cousin is coming over to hang out (he came over for the first time-yes, I said the FIRST time and we've lived here for 7 years!LOL) a couple fridays ago to hang out with DH (I went out that night). Apparently they had a good time b/c he's coming back tonight and this time I'll be home. I like hanging out w/"the boys" so it should be a fun night. :)

Today's work out is going to be another Shock Cardio HiiT. I have no motivation to work out for an hour. I barely got my arse out of bed. I am having a tougher and tougher time getting up during the week and I don't know why and I would also much rather sit on my kiester and play on the puter and guzzle coffee then work out! My motivation is currently in the toilet. I need to get it back! :(

Diana:: Happy thoughts for a negative on that biopsy! Enjoy that carrot cake!

Jacque:: Glad you were able to get a work out in! Sorry work and DH are such a pain in the tush lately. Don't take no sh**, girl! Show em who's boss! ;) BTW, I went to bed at 10 last night so I was actually still up when you posted to the check in! :p

Okay, I better run before I blow off this work out! I can't tell you how glad I am that I am starting STS on a weekend! Hopefully it'll get me excited and re-motivated for my early morning work outs!

BBL~
 
Good Morning!:)

I am right up there with Wendy! I didn't want to get up when DS decided it was time to get up! I think I could have slept for another couple of hours. But I have tons of stuff to do today so the earlier I start my day, the better!

I think I am going to run outside with DS later. When I was lying in bed I could see the trees moving...great....just great! Throw the wind in on top of everything!:rolleyes:I would also like to get abs work in. And besides for that I have to make some things for tonight, do laundry and clean the house a bit. Im not going crazy cause I will have to clean it again tomorrow!

Wendy** I need some kind of kick in the arse to. I have been dragging in my runs but yesterday when I was at work, I could feel that my pants were a little tight. Nothing uncomfortable but my pants go from baggy to fitted, over night:confused: My eating hasn't been that bad but my cardio hasn't been as long as it use to me so maybe that's why. So tomorrow I will tidy that part up...its pointless to start today! LOL It will only take a week for those pants to fit good again. Not to mention TTOM is just around the corner.

Laura** Happy to hear you are back in working order!!! Any plans for this weekend or is DH working?

Jacque** So you got a hard time for something DH could have had done...how did that happen?? :eek: I gave DH a hard time last night b/c he was always in charge of the jeep payment.For some reason, he set up a seperate bank acct for the jeep payment. He switched it not to long ago and I can see that bank acct on the online banking. So on our way to bed last night I told him that the jeep payment was coming out tonight and he just shruged or something. I told him that he was going to have terrible terrible credit. He then tells me that I am in charge of the bills....ah....not this one pal! He just ignored me so then I had to transfer money from one account to another:mad: He thinks just b/c he as to deal with financial stuff at work, he shouldn't have to do it at home....ignoring it doesn't make it go away...although it would be nice if it did;)

Diana** Telll DH that we wise him a very happy B-day! You guys need to come to DH's b-day bash tonight!:D I love carrot cake! My SIL asked me to bake a cake for work today. They are having cake and coffee or something. Im interested to see what they all have to say about it! Its one of my fav's....but not to good for you:eek::p

O.k...I may bbl...and I may not bb until tomorrow sometime. Happy friday everyone!!

Lori:)
 
HiiT 30/30, 100 lower ab reps and 125 inner thigh reps per leg done. I was checkin' out my legs today and I really think all of this inner thigh work is paying off. Makes me happy! :D

Lori:: You and I are like identical twins today. I am bloated as well. TTOM around the corner. Dragging. Unmotivate. Etc, etc. Fingers crossed that we both get past this and feel like our old selves again soon!;)
 
Hi Ladies,

Still unsure if I will be working out this morning. I need to make cream cheese frosting and frost the carrot cake, and wrap DH's birthday gifts. I don't want to be rushing tonight since DS has a football game.

I intended to wfh today, but today is our quarterly anniversary event. Since I'm at 20yrs the VP requested I be there. I don't look very good with this bandaid under my eye. I figure if I ignore it...so will everyone else. I have to have my stitches covered until they come out next week.

Wendy-sorry you're motivation is swaying. Starting a new rotation should help with that...go STS. Will you be following the rotation or doing your own cardio? I just checked my shipping email, not much info...Shipped form Los Angeles on the 17th. Still guessing my BH dvd's will arrive on Saturday. One of my coworkers told me he was gay, I don't care...he's hot to me! I don't watch BL so I'm probably the only one who doesn't know anything about him.

Lori-I take it..it is your DH's bday too! Happy BDay!!! Have a wonderful time. Oh yes, I stay away from carrot cake. This cake has 1 1/4C oil...OMG. You probably just need to up your water intake and wait for TTOM to come and go. I highly doubt it has anything to do with your exercise regimen...you silly girl.

Jacque-sounds like you have something for DH to do in is off time! We use office 2007, uses the ribbon etc. It was big change office 2003 pro. Thankfully they had a basic class for us. I will see if I can find the 1-2 page document they gave us explaining the differences. It might help you out a bit. btw-nice w/o yesterday...you should feel accomplished.

Laura-how was class last night...were able to kick azz???

It's already 6:45, no w/o for me this morning. Time to make cream cheese frosting! Hope everyone has a great Friday!!!
 
Good FRIDAY morning girls !

Great title Wendy - I'm happy it's Friday but sure hope I can accomplish some s#!^ at work or it won't be a happy weekend.

So the news is showing the best way to lose weight - have "Fat Bets" with your friends. Cornell Univ showed that they worked much better than employer challenges because not only do you win $ but you get bragging rights over your buddies. Good idea though I would not win these days - especially with you ladies who have much more motivation than me ! :p

Tonight's w/o will be PLB.

Wendy - ITU on where you are coming from. I just completed 4 days of w/o's in a row. Am contemplating 3 days on 1 day off but may wait until I can be a little more consistent and shed a few #s. Can't wait to hear how you like STS. Heads up that Meso 1 took longest for me because you continuously switch exercises and have to keep checking your #s. Try to set up as much as possible and keep your 1RM sheet as handy as you can. They seemed to be at least an hour per w/o so be prepared. You may be getting up at 3 AM ! Kidding ! :eek: *sending motivation vibes* Can you send them back? :rolleyes:

Lori - busy day you have planned. Yep - DH did water for me twice this week and then started in on that. Of course when I said he could have done it he said "don't yell at me about that". He would be happy with nothing but dirt around the whole house - maybe even inside they way he is. Makes it hard as we have different ideas on "nice - acceptable - etc". Sounds like you have similar issues - oh well, we gotta love 'em huh? HB to your DH too !

Diana - yes, please tell DH HB from the Sharks Fan ! Are you happy for Friday today? Gonna have a Mon AM meeting with the 'new crew' next week? How was dinner last night?

Laura - happy weekend - don't workout too hard now that you can ! ;)

BBL now that it will be the weekend.
 
Diana:: I just checked the shipping status on the Bob dvds! I think I'll be getting them TODAY! :D I am going to do whatever cardio strikes me while doing STS. Thinking HiiTs, Insanity M1's, the new Bob cardio ofcourse ;)...basically want short but intense when it comes to cardio. Will also probably throw in some kickboxing w/the weighted gloves as well provided the upper body DOMS allows for it!:eek: I would like to keep some Tonique in the rotation if my L/B can handle it so the shorter cardios will allow time for that.
 
Jacque:: We were posting at the same time. :) Sending motivation back atcha girly! ;) I am very happy I am starting STS over a weekend. I won't have to rush and I can see how long a work out might take me. Hmmmm...I don't think I can handle getting up any earlier. May have to figure out some other solution if they take more then an hour to do. :eek:

Forgot to tell you all....Finally made it to the tattoo place after work yesterday. Told the girl my ideas. She will have an initial design drawn up and emailed to me w/in 2 weeks. Then we make any changes I might want and set up an appointment to get her done! Nervous but very excited! :D

Laura:: Sounds like the Laura we know and love is back!!!! Great class last night! Good for you! LOL @ Bob Harper vids. Sorry but atleast I didn't enable on the TurboFire, right? ;) I won't be doing the cardio from BH tonight. Already did cardio this morning and with company coming tonight there will be no time but I'll likely try it on Sunday!!! I'll keep you posted!

Wendy .. I caved .. but blaming FL friend the most .. It was H## trying to order it though .. I kept getting messages .. finally ordered it from my droid and didnt go thru pay pal .. the only way I could get it .. ugh .. but I am guessing it will be worth it .. looking forward to hearing your review!!!! ;)
 
Laura, Lots are reporting troubles ordering. I didn't have a single issue! Glad you caved. Someone on the OF was previewing the cardio w/o and listed some of the exercises he does. Sounds TOUGH!:eek:
 
Hey Girls!

I'm pooped!:p We ran out and I picked up a coffee but DS and I seem to be fighting over it....which made me chug it! I like enjoying my coffee but thats not the case today:confused:

We went for a hour long run today and I did some abs when I returned. After lunch I made some dips and cleaned the house! Now its raining out. It was beautiful all day and now its raining??:mad:

Wendy** I can't say that I'm not motivated...just kind of dragging.Its weird actually. Oh and you said earlier that you enjoy hanging out with guys! Im with you on that. I love hanging out with DH and his friends. Men are fun and honest...where women are sly and lie:eek:

Diana** Thats a looooot of oil!;) Will you atleast taste it?? I would have to taste it.I would probably even forget about the oil altogether. You know...I bet there are people who think carrot cake is good for you! LOL

Jacque** I can see that working, especailly when someone is competitive! I think I use to bet to see who could stay away from sweets but that never worked cause there was no proof that we didn't eat it!

Laura** Enjoy your weekend home! I love a quiet weekend, probably b/c I don't have very many of them:mad: I have another party next weekend and I am pretty sure there is something on the go the following weekend!

Alright...I will bb in the a.m!

Lori:)
 
OK girlies - re: Bob Harper w/o's - did I read it right that it is $36 for the set?

If y'all tell me yes then I am in like Flynn ! :p :eek: :D ;) :rolleyes: :cool:

Wendy - thanks the motivation ! I need it these days . . . good to hear you'll try your first STS this weekend so you can see how it goes. LOL you can't get up any earlier . . . com'on Wendy ! :p Have fun with the boys tonight and Bob this weekend !

Laura - Okie dokie so you caved too ! I was thinking I saw the wrong price tag so tell me I saw it right so I can play too ! ! ! :D Good to hear you are almost back and that you stopped when you needed to - good girl Laura ! ;) So you wanna do a Fat Bet, huh? LMAO - perhaps just between the two of us, huh? :p Have fun on date night tonight and enjoy your relaxing weekend.

Lori - hope all goes well tonight - doggone weather here too, not warm and barely sunny. Has been going down hill each day and thinking the weekend will be kinda ugly too. Have a great time @ DH's BD party !

Diana - LOL - I am going from Office 2000 to 2010 - decade there ! he he he. I will take any help you can give me - will be reviewing tutorials this weekend but am proud to say I just did my first Letter Mail merge for 85 pay increase forms and it worked like a charm. I am hooked ! :p You celebrating DH's BD just as a family tonight?

Okie dokie - work blew up on me this AM and need to get back. Ciao until later tonight or tomorrow AM.
 
Hi Ladies,

I'm finishing up my day from home.:p Need to wrap dh's gifts and get Jerod to football by 3:30 for his 5pm game. Don't get me wrong, I also have some work things to take care of too.

Laura-sounds like you are doing much better...happy to hear that. Obviously not a 100% yet, but you'll get there soon. I didn't have any problems with ordering the BH DVD's at all. I expect them tomorrow or Monday and will be giving them a try.

Jacque-I couldn't pass up the price on the BH dvd's. The shipping was only 4 or 5 bucks. I'm looking forward to trying them out next week. I had a cheat sheet for office 2007, its a hard copy so I don't have access to it now...sorry. Will try to remember on Monday. I hate everthing being so hectic, but anticipate things calming down once our new process is fully implemented. Yep, its just our family tonight for DH's birthday. DS1 will be working but I told DS2 he is expected to come with us to DS3's football game tonight. We may go out to dinner afterwards, not sure though.

Lori-well the cake does have 3 cups of carrots...that's healthy right???;) I did taste the cream cheese frosting this morning and it was delicious!

Wendy-sounds like I need to pop over to the OD and see the BH reviews!
