Hi Everyone! I have my hot latte with slim milk and my goodness, did they give me a lot of foam in today's cup or what? I have a nice little foam mustache working here, ha!

So what are your plans for this Friday night or weekend?
 
Hey Cathe!! I've got a spa day with my mom and sis tomorrow (a belated bday celebration for me). What do you have going on this weekend??

I wanted to ask you a question.... You had said on FB yesterday that you were drinking a protein shake for lunch. I was wondering what recipe you use and what kind of protein you use? Also, is it OK/beneficial to drink shakes even when you're not doing a lot of weight work? I'm doing a more cardio/stretch-centered rotation this month...

Hope you're having a good Friday!! :cool:
 
Hi Cathe! That's my fave hot drink too:) After I do STS disc 2 this afternoon, I'm going out with the girls tonight to celebrate my birthday. I'm hoping some dancing will help alleviate the DOMS I have since starting the January rotation-Yowza!

Thanks for another great series! Can't wait to see what's next!

Have a great weekend!
 
Happy Birthday ladies, mine was Wednsday as well!!

Hey Cathe, happy Friday. DD has a girl scout trip to Stone Cold Creamery, so I am on a mission to spend my gift card from DH. Poor thing is clothes challenged so I'm off and running. I'm sure there will be a few workouts in there as well :p

Have a great weekend Cathe
 
Hi Cathe!! I hope you are doing well! No big plans for the weekend-just sort of hanging out.

I am curious to know when you'll announce the winner of the audition from Daytona though :)
 
Hi Cathe!!! My boys play hockey for their high school varsity team. They are in a tournament this weekend...so we will be watching hockey from am to pm. It really is fun because we will be together in the car a lot of the time too.. And those moments don't last very long as they get older. (I am going to post a fitness question as a new thread if you have a minute to look... Thanks) Hope you will be having fun with your boys too this weekend... :)
 
No big plans other than to try out Step Moves. I think that's the only Shock Cardio I have not tried yet. Looking forward to it. Enjoyed the tried and true Step Blast this morning. Good way to start a Friday! Thanks so much!
 
Wow Stephanie....a spa day with your Mom? That sounds like a great time. Have fun! I have lots of sports with the boys this week so there is no time to plan much else in. Maybe we'll grab a movie at night.

The protein shake I use is whey protein powder mixed with non fat milk (Gold Standard Whey Protein Powder) . You can add healthy items to it if you like but I usually don't before or after a workout because I want it it to digest quickly and feed my muscles. :D

Yes, you can have protein shakes anytime, even if not working out, but be sure that you do not have too much sugar or sodium added in as then it becomes a less healthy and defeats the purpose of a healthy snack.

Some people use shakes as meal replacements but I do not, unless I have no other choice. I honestly feel that nothing replaces the good health and nutritional value of clean, healthy, nutrient dense food. Just watch your calories, portions, fats (and types of fats) as well your carbs and sodium content and you will be in a good place.

Happy Friday!

Thanks, Cathe!! You always give us such individualized attention. I don't see how you have the time, but it is always very appreciated! I'm glad to know that about protein shakes!

Thanks again for the response!! Have fun with your boys tomorrow!! DH will have all three of mine!! Woo hoo!! :):)

Hi Cathe! So good to see you on here. DH and I are getting ready to start STS again in a few weeks- I'm excited to include all of the new Shock Cardio in there too. :)

Hope you have a great weekend! I'm taking DD to ballet (she is four and way too cute in her leotard) and DS to swim lessons.
 
Hi Catherine! How are you? I haven't chatted with you in a while :). We will be announcing the winner in late January. It is a tough decision. Everyone did soooo well.

You are so right Kelly! They grow up so fast so I know you are especially cherishing these last few years that they are home and under your roof. Have a wonderful weekend with them and tell them I said "Good Luck".
