Damage Controllers face the Insanity on Monday!

[Fit_mommy]

Good Morning Ladies.

Well I have incredible back DOMS from y'day's work out! WOW!

Today I will give Cardio Core Circuit a try. It sounds like a fun one!

Hopped on the scale this morning finally and it is up ofcourse but I must say that it's not as bad as I expected. I can tell I am bloated. My abs have done a little disappearing act as of late. This does not make me happy but I knew it was going to happen. I hope to be able to make a dent in the Christmas damage though before heading to AC on Thursday and making it worse!

I am going into work for noon this week. Joey is off from school and afternoon babysitting is all I could get. Better then nothing! It's also a 3 day work week for me. Makes for a crappy paycheck but I am not complaining!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jacque:: I feel for you! Sounds like you are having the bad luck I was having there for a while! Hope it gets better for you soon! I am doing better, thanks. Not sure what will happen still but things in my life have improved for the time being anyway. Time will tell what ultimately happens....

Diana:: Glad you are enjoying your time with your GDs so much!!! How long will you be staying with your DS once you fly back there?

Hello to the MIA DC'ers! Hope all is well with you ladies!!!

Off I go to bang out CCC! I hope it's as good as it looks!!!!

Good Morning!

I am sooo glad the weekend is over! I know that the weekend was "christmas" but it felt like the longest weekend of my life! Besides for work, there was always somewhere else I had to be has soon has I got off of work. It was exhausting and I haven't went to bed early in I don't know how long. My running partner and her DH came over last night and we all got in the hot tub. It was almost 2 when I went to sleep and I died! DH and DD weren't impressed with each other after I went to sleep. She had friends sleepover and she wanted to make food at 2 a.m. Like hotdogs or nachos...and she isn't the quietest person when she is doing things. She would have woke DS up forsure. Anyway, she wasn't very nice to DH so I think her attitude needs some fine tuning today. She may lose that laptop just has fast as she got it!

So I didn't get a workout in yesterday. Im not sure what workout I will do today. It will be a run and something else,maybe. I was looking at the STS cardio series again yesterday. I don't think I would want to buy them all so I just put a couple in my cart to see how much it would cost. The other thing is Im not a big KB fan, so would I even use those that much? And I haven't done step in forever...so would I use those??? So many descisions! I may read each one in detail now and buy a couple Gives me something to look forward to!

Wendy** So what are you reviews on the new workouts? If I were to only buy 1/2 of them, which ones should I get. Maybe I will buy half of them now and the other half later. I don't think I am going to bother with travel fit in general. Hope you have a good week as far as damage control goes I think b/c I was working all weekend, I didn't eat as much as normal. My turkey dinner went down in a lump b/c I had DS up while I was eating. Not the most enjoyable meal I have ever had

Diana** Sounds like you are enjoying your little girls I still can't believe you are a grandmother! Im hoping I have a while yet but I could easily be in my late 30's when that happens...BARF! Can you imagine? Not even 40? DD will be 21 when I am 39

Jaqcue** Did you decide on surgery for the dog after? How old is she? They can really be expensive when they start getting older. We hate to put a price on their lives but there is really only so much we are going to pay a vet....unless one had a unlimited bank account! Neither one of our dogs cost us much money.

Alright, I should get my butt in gear. It doesn't feel like I have had enough foffee yet though! We are also trying to decide what to do for New Years. None of our friends have plans. My MIL wants us to go out with them. I can't imagine that it will be barrels of fun or anything!

BBL!

I am back to report that CCC was INCREDIBLE! TOUGH TOUGH TOUGH STUFF! Faaaaaar tougher then the 2 HIIT's I did so far! Definitely gave Insanity a run for it's money IMO....perhaps b/c it's longer!? Not sure but WOW!!!!

Lori:: If you only want to buy a few of the Shock Cardios I would suggest HIIT, Cardio Core Circuit and Circuit Blast. I thought Travel Fit was a great work out as was MMA Boxing so I would suggest those as well but I know you really aren't interested in them to begin with. Sorry about your DD giving DH the teen 'tude. That sucks. My 4 yr old already has a 'tude. I rue the day he is officially a teenager!

Hi Ladies,

I just finished Athletic Step and abs from MMA Kickbox. The step w/o took longer since it was my first time...I did a lot of rewinding but finished it up. I should be good with next time I try it. I thought about previewing/doing Step Moves but thought I might get the 2 confused so I'll save that one for another day.

Wendy-I previewed part of CCC yesterday and it looked really good. I thought I could just do the ab premix, but quickly realized the abs are included in the cardio too. I will be staying for 5 days, but may decide to come home sooner.

Lori-good to hear that you are human...must be the first workout you've missed in a long time!

Laura-so the crud finally caught up to you. Sorry to hear that. I bet DN loved Christmas this year. Kids are so fun at xmas. Hope you and your family start feeling better soon. Don't push the workouts, you need to heal first.

Hi Jen & Jacque-guess you ladies must be at work today.
