Hi all!

I can't believe I'm the first one posting today. I did Baron's Next Challenge this morning. I really like this practice. It is a little long but it's shorter than Yoga X (which is 92 minutes). I also like that it doesn't have a gazillion warrior positions like Yoga X. It flows very quickly.

I did most of Ab Ripper X last night so that made up for yesterday morning. I have to take my dad into the hospital for a procedure tomorrow early so I don't know if I'm going to be able to workout tomorrow or post until later in the day.

Tracee: Sounds like you had a great facial. You're making me want one. Hope your DD is okay now.

Hope you all have great workouts. BBL.

Good Morning!

Today was L&G warm up and L&G floor work then B&G Leg Blast. I saw this combo posted from Debbie's May rotation. Don't know who it was that talked me into doing B&G 3 weeks in a row. Could it have been DEANIE???}( x( }( I did run 3 miles yesterday and then DS yoga. Don't like working out in the aft.
If you hear me crying all the way from TX, my DS is leaving today to work in Florida for the summer. I have loved having him home this past week. It is hard to let go, but it has to be done.:-(

****Question for you guys**** What celebrity , if any, do people tell you that you resemble?

Marcy--Hope everything goes well with your dad's procedure tomorrow. Do you have BB's Next Challenge AND Ultimate Challenge? I have both and thought you and Deanie just had Ultimate Challenge.

Deanie--Was it a yoga day for you also? Are you working today?

Tracee--Was your DD able to go to school today?

Gin
 
Hi Gin,

That workout sounds like a killer. Sorry your DS is leaving. My DS actually wants to stay in NY when we move but is probably coming with us. I've come to realize you can't hold on to them forever even though you want to. It really is hard letting go. Somebody once said when I was about 17 that I looked like Audrey Hepburn. Yes, I have both Baron's Next Challenge and Ultimate Challenge. I find Next Challenge more of a challenge and I'll use Ultimate Challenge for a lighter day. I can't wait to get my David Swensons.

Hi guys

Today was yoga for me. I slept late (was up till 11 watching LOST) and didn't work out yet. I just got back from playing Mahjong and don't know if I want to do a 70 min. workout. Hmmmm....maybe DS today.


Gin- I like B&G!! And I will be doing it on Sat.:) People used to tell me I look like Marissa Tomei, when she was popular. (my cousin vinnie, and guiding light) How about you? Sending ((((hugs)))) your way. It must be so hard to part with your DS for the summer.

Marcy- Hope all goes well with your dad tomorrow. HOpefully you'll get your DS yoga for next week and you can try it out.

Off to yoga....
Deanie
 
Good Afternoon!

WOW...Audrey Hepburn and Marissa Tomei...both so pretty!! You both must have big brown eyes, right?
Years ago I was told I looked like Wonder Woamn. What is her name? I had long dark hair then (natural color). Most recently someone told me I looked like Tea Leoni. I don't see it, but then showed a picture of her to my DH and he thought maybe. Unfortunately I don't have the same bodies as either one.:-(

Marcy--Isn't your DS graduating this year? The Next Challenge is so long to me and I have done it so many times I like the other one better. I feel about pushups and one legged squats like you do about biceps! BLAHHH!!x(

Deanie--Do you ever feel any pain?? ;-) I think maybe you like all of the exercises!! Or maybe you just like to feel pain!;-) Did you win playing Mahjong?

Gin
 
Hi guys. I don't know why it takes me so long to get on here some days. I am at work which is usually the best place for me to log on to the site but today I guess I got involved in other things.

Sleep got the better of me today and I took advantage. So that means no yoga this morning. I was also up late watching Lost, it was great wasn't it Deanie?

Gin - I had one guy years ago that thought I looked like Lucie Arnaz (Lucille Ball & Desi Arnaz's daughter). I don't really think that's true and he was the only one who ever said that but no one tells me I look like any celebrity so that's all I could come up with.

My dd is better and was able to go to daycare today. Unfortunately one of my son's is now home sick with it. :-( My dh stayed home with him today. Hopefully, it stops there and no one else gets it. We've got a baseball tournament that I'm looking forward to so I really don't want to have the flu ruin it.

Deanie - What exactly is Mahjong? Is it a card game or something else?

Update on my ebay cancelled purchase. Two days ago I escalated my claim with paypal so that they would get involved and I would get my money back. I got an e-mail from them today telling me that the seller mailed the package to me. He provided a tracking number so I checked the USPS website and it shows it as being delivered yesterday. I didn't get the mail yesterday so I have no idea if it actually came but isn't that kind of strange? Why was he able to send it if the transaction was supposedly cancelled? Do you think it's an authentic dvd or a bootleg copy? Not that I would know what to look for if it's a bootleg but it still makes me wonder. Have you had any problems with yours, Gin?

Do you guys notice that your veins in your arms are popping out more lately? I have and I'm not sure I like the look. Ever since lifting heavier I've noticed it in my forearms especially and I just thought I'd ask you guys.

Have a good day. BBL

Hello again!

Gin - Yes, we are all so beautiful! I actually have green eyes. Lynda Carter was Wonder Woman. Yes, my DH is graduating this year. The Next Challenge is long but compared to Yoga X, it's not so bad for me although I would like a 60 minute practice. I never thought I'd say this, but after P90X, I actually like pushups. I used to hate them whenever I did Cathe's Chest & Triceps but now that I'm becoming Wonder Woman, they're not so bad!

Marcy
 
Hi guys, I ended up doing DS yoga. Love that practice! (hope you will too Marcy) I added vinyasa's in- Where he does one after every pose in the sitting postures, I did one after each side, each pose. This is what he does in the next level video. I had a great practice. I'm not sure if its because I did it at noonish, instead of 6am or I'm getting more flexable. (I think its more me doing it at noon:) )


Tracee- Yes! I have noticed the vein thing also,(and so have my kids) and I don't really like it. LOST was good, but China Beach, years ago, did a smiliar thing; with Dana Delany out of sorts since she was no longer in charge, so I was kinda bummed about that. Who do you think was in the coffin? My DH thinks maybe Sawyer, but I'm hoping he's with Kate. By the way, I think Sawyer is HOT!! Mahjong is a game played with tiles, and a card, and you have to get the tiles to match the hands on the card. Its a great game, you have to be defensive as well as play your hand. I hope your son gets better for his game!! We have a game tonight.

Gin- LOL!!I also have green eyes!!:) And I HATE PUSHUPS!!! I was okay with them before this rotation, but now, not happy with them!! And yes I won at mahjong this morning. By the way, I think Tea Leoni is beautiful!!

Hi again!

Wow, Deanie, you're really on a winning streak! I'd actually like to play mah jongg again. I haven't played in years but it was fun. My mom still has her set that she doesn't use anymore. You guys will eventually have to get Chest & Back and Chest, Shoulders & Triceps to appreciate pushups, I guess (well, except for the clap pushups which I don't think I'm going to be able to do by the end of this rotation.) Deanie, it really is spooky how much we're alike (almost the same birthday, same age, eye color, build, etc.) I don't think I look like Marisa Tomei, but then again I don't think I look like Audrey Hepburn either! I have to ask - what color hair do you have? Mine's brown.

Marcy
 
Deanie - I'm glad I'm not the only one noticing the vein thing. I wasn't sure who to think was in the coffin. I've heard others say it might be Locke or Sawyer but I'm hoping Kate is with Sawyer too.

Update on the flu going around my family. Now my other son has come home from school with it. Oh boy, I think it's going to be a long night. Lets hope me and my dh don't catch it.

Sounds like we have a group of attractive women here. Ha!

Have a great evening.
 
Mines brown. When I was younger it had auburn highlights naturally. Now I get highlights and my hair is brown but with blond highlights, and for the summer I like the highlights very noticeable. I actually do think I look like Marissa Tomei- when she and I were younger, and she had a perm (I have curly hair). Not exactly (I should be so lucky) but there was a resemblance. I definately do not have her body type. She seems to be thin and lanky. I am trim and curvy. I don't know if I would like pushups more by doing the X. Its the quanity I don't like. To many in one day, and I thought C&T had to many!! I do like the different kinds.
