**Damage Control** November

Hi Ladies,

I'm normally just getting home from Black Friday shopping at this time. There weren't any big ticket items on my list with a big enough discount to warrant going out shopping for. All is not lost, I did some cyber shopping this morning!

STS Disc 11, B&B will be my last Meso 1 workout today. Cardio is also necessary, probably KPC since I'm missing doing that w/o on occasion. The rest of my day/weekend will be spent on putting up the Christmas tree, getting the girls' room ready and cleaning out the basement a bit.

DH asked me what I wanted for Christmas today. I was going to send him the link for the ugi ball, it is much more expensive than I thought. I am going to ask for the dip station though.:)

Wendy-I made a reese's dessert, its made with peanut butter, powdered sugar, graham cracker crumbs and butter all mixed together and pressed into a 9x13 pan, then covered with melted chocolate chips. I also made roasted veggies and sweet potato pie (tastes like dessert). I think I did that extended w/o too but don't recall it being any longer than I thought. Love your w/o today! I was on the BR site earlier and some hunky guy was doing the w/o!!! :p Freddy's brother I take it!

Allee-How was your Turkey Day? We had a wonderful time at SIL's house and all the kids and cousins were there. What kind of work do you do?

Hi Lori and Laura...and Jacque too.

Hello and happy weekend ladies,

Glad everyone had a great Thanksgiving.

I am thinking about ordering the low series. Which dvd you ladies suggest?

Off to my morning walk.

DI: I am a manicurist. Part time employee at the laundromat. What do you do?

BBL ;)
 
Hi Ladies,

I didn't get nearly as much done yesterday as I planned. Hopefully the Christmas tree will be put up today and more work on the girls room and basement this weekend.

MIL called and wants to take us out to dinner tonight, mexican food...yum. Other than its usually fried and covered with cheese, I love it. It doesn't bode well on my WW plan though.

My workout today will be Cardio Fusion mix & max 80 minute premix! Getting read to do that now.

Allee-I'm working my way through the Low Impact series along with my STS rotation. If your looking for straight cardio, Low Impact Challenge is good. Most of the other cardio w/o's utilize weights and are more of a circuit. You'll have plenty of options if you order the whole series. I haven't done slide & glide yet since the discs don't work very well in my w/o area. There is a small area where the discs do work, but it's not big enough to do all the moves. I simply need to move all my puzzle mats (25 of them) and then I could try slide & glide. I work for a large manufacturing company in the IT deparment. I love getting pedi's but stay away from mani's since I'm a nail biter. Not willing to pay for pretty nails when I just bite them off as soon as I can feel an edge.

Hi Again,

Thanks Di! :p

You are right. I am just going to order the whole series.

Well, I went for a walk this morning hoping to loosen up a little. Oh boy, B&G got me good. Hehe...I only did the standing portion.

hello to everyone!

off to order my low series....;)

DOMS: hammies BBAAAAD.. yikes ...today .. Afterburn DONE ... my two favorite w/o of the Liit series .. is Afterburn and cardio super sets .. but LOVE all of them .. (except TB) .. and THAT.... for me .. someone who prefers high impact w/o like plyo and asylum .. is saying a LOT!!!!!

Allee: the Liit series is the BEST along w/STS series .. by far well worth the investment of money .. it is tuff and fun!

Di: OH MY Christmas decorating already . . yikes .. not me .. gonna be a while for me ..

Hello to Wendy ..

All my girls are in different directions .. so it will just be me .. and maybe SIL and DB if SIL is up to it ...send some winning against all odds vibes our way please!!! :D:D:D

OK ... have a great one ... i have soooo enjoyed this Holiday .. have gotten my workouts in .. visited w/family ... got chores done .. watched movies .. and managed to relax too .. wonderful!!!

;)
 
Good Morning Ladies.

Getting ready to do my work out. Thinking Atheletic Training for today. I forgot to work out y'day! :eek: I was busy running errands and doing stuff around the house + cooking. My w/o totally slipped my mind until after I had already started with the wine! OOPS! This is why it's so much better to get it out of the way early like I will do today!!!!

Allee:: To pick up where Diana left off with Slide & Glide since she hasn't done it...upon preview it looked too easy but wow. As with many of these work outs, the proof is in the pudding! Another awesome work out! You can't go wrong with this series. Really! Buy it for yourself as a Christmas present! You are gonna love it! ;)

Di:: So how was your mexican meal? I lurve cheese too so you are not alone! After that 80 min work out you did you can afford some cheese girl! :D Yeup, Frieddy's brother is doing a lot of BR vids right now. He's got a nice body! Everything you made for T Day sounds delish! Hope you got to enjoy a little bit of all of it! So will your gd's be coming to visit around the holidays this year?

Laura:: I haven't done Afterburn in full yet. I was trying to decide between that and Athletic Training for today. Going for AT only b/c I've done premixes of them both and for AB I did the one where you each every drill one time through so I essentially have done the abbreviated version of the entire work out. For AT there is not premix like that, I assume b/c she doesn't repeat in this one? I can't rightly remember, it's been a while, so I'd like to do the whole work out to see what it's like.
 
Hi Ladies,

My brother and SIL is here visiting my nephew and his family. I'm heading over to my nephew's today and we are all going out to lunch. I don't get to see my big brother very often, maybe a couple times per year. I'm looking forward to a wonderful visit. Not sure if DH is coming with me or not, he has some friends coming over to watch the football game.

Thinking another tough cardio sweatfest is in order for today. Imax 3 is sounding good but yah never know. I'll pick something out when I get downstairs! Starting Meso 2 tomorrow. I'll have to do 4 STS w/o's per week to get finish this mesocycle before my surgery. I'm already seeing results from meso 1.:)

Wendy-enjoy your workout! Since I haven't done the LIS w/o's enough, they blend in my mind. I do remember liking AT, AB and LIC. I've Lower Body trisets once and really liked it, but haven't tried the UB except for the Ab segments.

Laura-Go Auburn!!! Well we decided to get the carpets cleaned so the Christmas decorating will have to wait until after that. Hopefully they can come this next week. I've enjoyed the long Holiday weekend too!!

Allee-Oh yes, the after affects of B&G will be around for a few days.:p Do you have Cathe's HIIT w/o's? I would recommend those too. There are 3 w/o's, two step and one Hi/Lo. They are each about 30 minutes so are great when you are short on time. You should also check out the bodyrock.tv website, it is full of short but tough w/o's you can do at home. I don't have their equipment but have been able to modify with the equipment I do have.

bbl
 
So apparently these work outs blend in my mind as well Di because about half way through AT I realized that I HAD infact done the work out in full before! :rolleyes: Oh well. It was an awesome work out none-the-less. I think I was just subconsciously putting off doing AB! :p I will get to it though! ;) So did you have a nice family lunch? I remember when I was growing up I would go out for a lot of brunches with my dad and his family. Always enjoyed it. Good food! And if we didn't go out, we would get food to go and eat it at his house. Either way it was yummy! :D

So I made chicken and white bean stuffed peppers last night and have three bean turkey chili in the crockpot as I type this. I won't have to cook all week if I don't want to! :D

K, no spending oodles of time of the computer. Still have stuff to get done!!! BBL or tmrw!
 
Hi Ladies,

I had a wonderful day yesterday with the family. My brother, SIL and I went shopping after lunch and spent the whole day together! My brother is 64 and says he plans on retiring next year. He's been in the oil & gas industry his whole life.

Time for me to get busy with Meso 2, CST this morning.

Allee-good luck at the Dentist, that's never a fun place to go.

Wendy-your dinners sounds delicious!

Laura-Hi missy!

bbl
 
Good Morning.

So I slept in instead of working out this morning and I'm fine with it. I will work out tmrw. :)

Di:: Dinner was definitely delish! I have left overs for lunch today! YUM! Glad you had such a nice time with your brother and his wife. I'm sure your brother has worked hard his whole life. Good for him for making the decision to and even more importantly being able to afford to retire! Not always so easy!!!

Allee:: Hope the dentist was easy breezy for you!

Laura:: Good weekend for you I hope?

BBL!

Hi ladies,

Started meso 2 this morning, CST. Only made it through Chest & Shoulders and will do the tricep segment tonight....after DS's banquet. I've already decided that if the banquet is long then I will do HIIT DWP and triceps tomorrow morning. If not, the plan is triceps tonight and a longer cardio tomorrow.

Allee-Oh no, hope the dentist can see you. Sorry you are in pain.

Laura-oohh, not fun being scared awake! Hope your cold gets better quickly.

Wendy-Enjoy your rest day. I got up a bit late myself so had to cut my w/o short this morning. My brother has worked in oil/gas his whole life and has made plenty throughout his life. Him and my SIL have traveled the world, Europe, Hawaii, Mexico, Dubai, Saudi Arabia....etc. It will be nice for him to settle down a bit. Someday I hope to get ahead...but I'm still working on it.:)
