Fabulous 40s in February

Hi everyone

Don't think you've noticed we've moved into a new month!

Lisa - sounds like you're feeling better.

Mar - how was the weekend?

Jody - any time off?

Roxie - how's GS?

Hi Murphy - hope you're peeking!

Had a nice day yesterday - dragged DD out for a walk. It was a beautiful winter day, blue skies, clear, sunshine. Got up on the hills and had wonderful views. That counted as my workout!
Then went for a burger in the evening. With a very thick milkshake - that was my blowout!
Did KCM Weights today - all the KCM love around here made me want to go back. Did a premix of one set of everything with standing core/waist. My waist really feels it now.
Not going to do the Feb rotation but might pick bits out of it here and there. There are a few DVDs I want to go back to.
 
Hi all! Today did the Firm volume 1. Ronne, good job remembering its a new month! Is your vacation this month? Jody, that's why I haven't gotten a different car, the payment! Sometimes we are forced tho, unfortunately. Roxie, how are you feeling? Lisa, how was the sushi? Hi Murphy! Took rest day yesterday, we had a Super Bowl party, it was fun. Had to clean this morning, back to work tomorrow. Lisa, sorry about Denver, I felt so bad for Manning, it was painful to watch him. On the plus side, we did win the 3rd quarter squares! I have to go pick up our winnings! Hope everyone has a good day! Mary
 
A new month?!??! Where does the time go? I'm bad at remember new months :eek:

Mary, I felt bad for Manning too, given it didn't start off so good (safety) they never got a groove back. We didn't even watch until halftime it was so painful :) And i"m not a huge football fan!

Ronne, I may be channeling you tomorrow, thinking of KCM weights. What a blow out you had! :eek: But the walk sounded really nice! Can't get out here, snow! Normally I may have taken out the dog, but I'm a bit afraid of slipping, so using common sense! I didn't come this far to mess up!

Jody, I've noticed not as much pure cardio with KCM, can't really pinpoint why I"m liking her weight work so much...the difference in moves? The fact it's more endurance-like (ie. moves fast), I dunno. Oh and love how she works the waist, I just feel the ab work is more effective than the full situps or endless crunches?

So for my w/o today, I may have bit off more than I could chew. I needed pure cardio since left UB muscles wasn't feeling the greatest (can't imagine what in css caused it), anyway, I did BM2 thru the step combos then quit. that cardio in the w/o is FAST. Whew, why did I add a riser? lol
 
Good Afternoon,

We didn't get snow the other day but I had ice 1" thick on my windshield this morning but tonite and tomarrow we are expecting 6-10" of snow so I don't plan on going to work tomarrow. I did TLC #1 Boxing love this workout.

Ronne-gs is doing much better thanks for asking.

Mary-still have a sore throat but after throwing up last night I feel a little better.

Lisa-you can keep your snow.
 
I did KMC YBB1, I liked it.

Roxie come to FL, I had to put the AC on, it was stuffy and muggy inside house.

Lisa, I'm enjoying the different moves, too. If I ate better, my supermodel physique would reveal itself. Speaking of eating, my Blendtec croaked - having a run of bad luck mechanical. They are sending me a new base. No green smoothies for a few days.

Mary, have a great day back. I'm so anxious to be done. We have PALS next week instead of the 12 hour clinical days, but I'm not prepared to take it yet. Nervous about that one. Congrats on your winning squares.

Ronne, that sounds like a really nice walk. And dinner, too.

PS, good call on the whole Feb thing.

Waves to Murphy!
 
Hi all

Jody - I don't have that one. Thought it was too similar to Circuit Burn. Worth getting?

Roxie - that sounds like a lot of snow!

Lisa - I avoid BM2. Just don't like it, too tough for me!

Mary -yes, we go a week on Sunday! Can't believe it's almost here.

Did some burger-blasting today with Imax 3 :p! Got through it. Knees felt a bit funny. It was odd, when I started the step seemed really low. Guess I've got used to all the plyo stuff.
Going to the cinema tonight to see Inside Llewyn Davis. Mary, have you seen it?
 
Tried to do some fat burning with X10 but my knees said not today. Did some back and ab work just to say I did something. I guess my knees are not interested in doing anything with the cold weather. We have been buried under snow off and on (more on) for the past two weeks or so. We got hit Sunday, more is to come tonight, and more to come this weekend. Yikes.

On a positive note, I finished my last chemo last Wednesday. I still have treatments of Herceptin, but they don't consider that chemo. It treats a protein in the cells and not cancer. I am scheduled for a lumpectomy in March.

For the best news ever department, I had more tests done and they don't see any traces of cancer, tumors or some cyst I had. Yippee!

Murphy
 
did kcm muscle def w/o #1 plus abs (minus crunches and full situps). Normally I've been doing both of the 30 min w/o's but my left muscles were feeling it and I didn't want to overdo it, especially since I go for massage today. I'm feeling like I can drop down to every 2 weeks for massages soon. It's snowy here, yuck, I normally don't mind the snow, but this year it's yuck for me.

Murphy, that is FANTASTIC news! Does this mean you get your port out?

Ronne, YBB is one of my favs. Imax3 collects dust.

Roxie, I'm ready for winter to be over since my muscles can't handle the cold right now, if I bundle up too much I sweat, can't win!

Jody, I"ve been very good with my diet. I'm sure that's the main reason for the wt loss.

Mary, Is today your day back? Still twiddling my thumbs.
 
Good Morning,

I did KCM's Body Shop 2 that is a good one I can really feel it and then I did CK25 WK1 D1 run 1.5min walk 2mins for 30 minutes. The change in weather caused a migraine, at 5 this morning the sun was shining I thougth they had screwed up on the forecast again since schools started closing last night but when I got up again at 7 it was a whole different story can't see very far and we have about 4" in the ground already.

Lisa-this winter has definetly been different.

Murphy-thrilled to death to hear that.

Ronne-it is and I don't want it.
 
MURPHY!!!!!! I'm so happy for you!!!! What great news! I keep you in my prayers daily and will continue to do so, know that we are all here for you, I'm so glad you can see the end of the road. Jody, I have taken PALS in the past, I found it very challenging. I thought ACLS was much easier. I know you will do amazing. Ronne, I avoid BM2 also, too long, too hard, too everything! Roxie, we are supposed to get the snow tonite, it feels like this winter will never end! Lisa, I can't believe they aren't giving you any work! Lol! Seems so funny to me! Work went fine, I hope we don't have a snow day tomorrow, will have to make it up somewhere! I did SC today, have to get back in the groove, have a nice evening, Mary
 
Hello

Mary - I think I'd rather have the snow than the rain we've been getting. It's back again today, with strong winds as well. The power went this morning for about an hour.

Roxie - so are you indoors all day today?

Lisa - can't believe you're still not doing anything. It's ridiculous!

Did XTrain Legs. Thought I'd a bit of extra leg work before skiing, but I'll stop midweek next week to give my legs time to recover.
Enjoyed the film last night. Recommended.
Work a bit quiet. Catching up on housework instead.
 
Did Greatest Hits vol. 1 today. If I liked step I would like this but since I don't, I think this is my first and last use of this dvd. I just could not get into it.

Thank you to everyone for the prayers and well wishes. They mean a lot and are helping me on this journey.

Lisa - I could get the port out, but I still have a year of the Herceptin so I will keep the port in for at least a year. Otherwise I have to get an IV each time I go in. I have good veins and I want to keep it that way. :)

Snowy-waves to all!

Murphy
 
Good Morning,

Still fighting the migraine and didn't sleep well something hit the roof twice during the night thinking its tree limbs. I am not sure how much snow we got but I know I will be doing shovelmax later. The sun is shining today so we must be done until Friday.

Murphy-not going anywhere today have to try and find the driveway and car. I can't walk out my back door huge snow drift.

Mary-be prepared for alot of it. DD and her DH had a 2ft snow drift in front of their garage door.

Ronne-luckily this is my day off so we will see what tomarrow brings.
 
Good morning! Surprise, I got cancelled, was all ready up and ready to go, now I have to make up the day in the future. My poor kids had to go tho! STILL snowing! I did the Firm volume 2 this morning. Roxie, keep your snow! Thank goodness you are off today. I don't shovel anymore, I gave it up! Ronne, I hear you on rain, that gets depressing. I hope it stops soon for you. I heard we are supposed to get another storm on Sunday. Jody, you are nice and warm there in Florida! Murphy, I tried that dvd once also, I felt like I all ready own it! Hope everyone has a good day! Mary
 
DH ended up doing the shoveling so I walked on the TM for 30 minutes.

Mary-I was hoping Lisa would keep the snow.
 
Late check in, I'm frozen! Didn't feel like working out, too cold! I did do KCM cardio quick fix w/o 1 and 1/2 of w/o 2, was sweating and still had cold hands!

Anyone watch the biggest loser? Rachel was toooooo skinny!

Mary, don't you hate to be ready to go and then get canceled? Normally I don't mind shoveling (unless it's in feet), but obviously no shoveling for me!

Roxie, sorry, we have enough cold and snow so I'm sharing with all!

Ronne, I actually prefer snow to rain (except I do miss having a good thunderstorm like we did in FL----we dont' get those here). Good idea to save your legs for skiing! Hope your knees are good too!

Murphy, I agree with Mary about Greatest Hits. I wondered how some of the routines made it in a greatest hits!

Jody, we know you aren't literally snowed in, but are you snowed in with work?
 
Lisa, thank goodness you went! And thank goodness they are getting you in so quickly! I'm sorry you have to go thru it again.
 
Hi ladies

Lisa - oh, I'm sorry. These are the same that you've had on your scalp aren't they? Like Mary said, glad it's been caught quickly.

Mary - oh no! Well, at least you didn't have to entertain the kids!

Roxie - do you think it's the weather causing the migraine?

Murphy - yeah, the Greatest Hits never appealed to me. At least, it was free :).

In a yoga mood today. Did a core-focused session, worked hard. Raining again. It's really bad in some parts of the UK. On the southern coast a part of the railway got washed away, the tracks are just suspended in mid-air. The floods are back in the fields at the bottom of the road, I can't walk into town again because the path is a lake.
More storms are forecast as well.
