Cathlete
Morning Fitness Maniacs -

This morning I did Cardio Coach 3 using the treadmill and ellipitcal.

I'm not feeling very good this morning. I didn't get much sleep, had a very stressful day yesterday and my stomach hurts real bad.

Work has been hectic. I'll try to check in later.

Have great workouts everyone.
 
Awwww Lora! So sorry you are having a bad morning and that your day wasn't good yesterday. I hope you stomach feels better soon. Try and take it easy and don't let your boss get to you. Have you thought about finding another position?

No workout for me yesterday. I did a little shopping yesterday in Peoria and then I went to bunko last night. There is never a lot of clean eating there. lol I have my other bunko group tomorrow night (the one group that I did go to split into two groups since there were a couple issues. Two of us are playing in both groups--lol) I guess that just makes for another non clean eating night. Two a month, I guess that is not too bad. I just know I will not be eating the best in the world Friday thru Monday since we will be in Wisconsin at the hotel. I guess I had better start working out more.

Oops sorry for the long post. I am extremely tired today since my 4 year old decided he didn't want to go to bed last night.

What are all you lovely ladies up to today??
 
Hey Everyone,
Today I am going to do GS legs?? (Want to get in all my GS by tomorrow before the holiday) I have a easter egg hunt at school today so I will have to do my workout this afternoon sometime.

The wheather has been beatiful here!!:D Last night I swung on our swing set with my girls and then we all went for a bike ride. Today is going to be another great day!!

Lora sorry to hear you are still having lots of stress in your job. :-( Hope today goes better for you!!


Well I gotta go!!

Hello to everyone and hope you all have a WONDERFUL day!!

~Nicole
 
Good morning ladies -

Lora - I'm sorry, too, that you're not feeling well. I hope you feel better soon. I don't know how you work with that boss. I wish you the best!

Sabrina - have fun at Bunko! Sounds like a good time!

I'm going to do Core Syngestics, FINALLY! I keep threatening! (All talk, I know! :+ ) This afternoon I may or may not do cardio. I'm going pretty easy this week, knowing I'm starting P90X on Sunday. I'm also making sure I'm eating less to compensate. I starting coughing last night when I went to bed (why does it wait until then?!) so I took a Benedryl and that helped, so I think it's allergies. I can feel it a little this morning, too. Hopefully it is allergies (which are really bad right now with all the rain) and not the cold going around.

Well, we're in for another fabulous storm. *sighs* Stay dry everyone! And have a fab day!
 
Hello Ladies,

Today will be KPC and something else but not sure what. I have a killer headache and my head is feeling heavy. I hope I am not getting sick! Ihave been on such a good roll with my rotation and don't want to mess it up.

So what is everyone doing Easter?

Sabrina-I guess i know what you are doing Easter. The weekend sounds great!
Christine-I wish you great sucess with p90x. I hope to get p90x myself someday.
Lora-Hope you feel better
Nicole-What rotation are you doing this month?
Diane Sue-What day in May does DH come home?
Dallas-Is everyone at your house feeling better?
Marietta-Going with what ever workouts that sound good is sometimes a nice break from a rotation
Susan-Are you doing ok?

I will try and check back later

Good Morning Maniacs!!!

Yesterday I did the extended version of Lowmax, did not do the last two extended cycles though as my legs were previously fried from PLB and KPC day before. Today I will do PUB and BC, but may have to modify cuz I still have some serious DOMS.

Lora,

You do what is best for yourself to improve your situation at work, but please don't let that boss of yours make you feel like this. That just isn't right. I hope you have a beautiful day and make the most of it!!!!! Remember, what I told you to do to your boss! LOL!


Nicole,

The weather is getting nice here too. I need to mow now! Gosh!!!! Have fun with the Easter Egg Hunt! That was always so fun when my children were small.

Christine,

I have been sneezing alot today so I think it may be just allergies for me. I can't wait to start smelling those honeysuckles and wild roses this time of the year. I love to leave the windows open to smell too. LOL!


Sabrina,

Sounds like you have been having too much fun, but good for you!!!!

Hey to all the other Maniacs! Guess you all are sweating about right now? LOL!

I forgot to tell everyone here that I got a job. I will be working front desk at a Outfitters place...renting canoes to folks, etc. Now I need to prioritize things at home (workouts, cleaning, yard..HELP)!!! I feel overwhelmed at the moment just thinking about it. I am not use to this. And I wonder if I will get the help I need at home from DH and children. This scares me.

Hi everyone,

Today I ran for three miles on the treadmill. It’s still so darn cold in the morning to go outside. I also did Slow & Heavy Biceps, Triceps, abs and Planks. I’m getting better at them since having the baby, but boy they were tough!

Sabrina, NEVER apologize for a long post! I love to hear what you’re up to. Do you follow a particular eating plan? When you mentioned the “non-clean” food at Bunko made me wonder.

Nicole, I’m so jealous of your nice weather. I love to swing. I used swing at a local school when I was in my early 20’s all alone after work. It’s a lot of fun!

Charlotte, I had doms from PUB last week. I love that workout. Are you following a rotation? Congrats on the new job! Your family will HAVE to help out more. It may be hard at first, but once everyone gets used to your new schedule, things will fall into place.

Terri, We’re going to Nags Head, NC on Saturday, through the 23rd. We’ll wake up Easter morning in a hotel on Virginia Beach, where we’ll stop for a days driving. I think the Easter Bunny may leave a few treats there, but the egg hunt will be at the mansion we rented.

Christine, Is this your first time doing CS? I’ve done that workout a couple of times. I really didn’t care for it, but that’s just me. I’d like to know what you think.

Hi Marietta, Dallas, Diane Sue! :D

I’ll be around today, trying to find shorts that fit me since last summer…**sigh**

Good Morning All!

Yesterday I had PT in the afternoon and she was really working my foot. I had to press against her hand in every direction. I thought for sure I would be in pain today....yippee NADA! I iced it last night for about an hour, I'm sure that helped. I have it again this afternoon. I'm getting ready to leave for the dentist. Something happened to my last tooth on the top. It hurts! :-( After the dentist, I'm stopping at the gym for some elliptical time. I'll have to put the boys in daycare. :-( They always have fun though.

Susan ~ I have major doms from PUB yesterday. I wasn't sure I was going to be able to blow dry my hair this am. lol It does look a little wild. ha ha!:+ Have fun on your trip!

Lora ~ I'm sorry you're feeling so terrible. Can you take one of those sick days?

Nicole ~ Have fun at the Easter egg hunt. My ds6 is having one tomorrow. We've been enjoying the nicer weather here too!!!! Love it!

Sabrina ~ I e-mailed you yesterday.

Charlotte ~ Congrats on the new job!

Hi to everyone else. I have to run! Oh yeah, we found a new church! Guess what, the priest and his wife used to work out at the gym I used to go to. Isn't that something?! The church can't be all that bad. ;-)

Have a good one. I'll try and check back...

Dallas
 
Susan, have fun on your weekend away. It will be quiet here with both you and Sabrina gone .

Charlote-Good luck with the job. Is it full time or part time?
 
Thanks ya'll. Terri, it is part time. I don't want full time. I am gonna have "overtime" here at home as it is as I will have to play "catch up"!!!!!! LOL!

Charlotte~~
 
Charlotte - Congrats on the job! That's great news and I'll bet you like it there! As for fitting it all in - planning, and taking a deep breath and just wading in, seem to work best for me. :) And yeah, I think it's allergies. I'm feeling fine now - wasn't as strong as I usually am (or maybe CS just kicked my butt - not sure which), but I could breath.

Susan - I enjoyed CS - it's TOUGH! Reminds me of the TLT's on steriods. I can't do all of the moves for the entire time yet, but I did really enjoy it.

Dallas - Glad to hear you're pain free in your foot after your PT session. Have fun on the ellipitcal. Did she say when you'll be able to run again?

Terri - my Easter plans are pretty simple - get baskets for the girls (small - with just some good chocolate in them), and make a ham, with potato salad and deviled eggs (not exactly clean eating, but hey). We're having friends come over after church to share in the dinner (their extended family is also far away). I used to hide the baskets and write a poem for the girls to find them - but I'm getting too old for that *winks*. What are you doing?
 
Just finished KPC and I feel great! Later I will do more. I still feel like I may be coming down with something. I sure hope not!

Christine-I thought Dave and Ashley had plans foe Easter but now they may not. So if not I think we will get together with my Dad. Not sure what we will do. I miss the days of easter baskets! I am such a kid :)

Terri
 
Thanks Christine and Healthyvibes right back at you! I know you have said before but how old are your girls?

Hey Maniacs!!

I've been in a meeting most of the morning and just now able to post.

I did KPC, 1 set of BBM, and some shoulder work this morning. I'm going to lunch today, but I have class after work today.

You guys have been chatty this morning.

Lora - Sorry you're not feeling well...hope you feel better soon.

Terri - We are on the same wave-link...again!! Hey, you can still do Easter baskets...I bet Dave and Ashley would think it was really cool.

Dallas - Good news about your foot...sounds like you are definitely on the mend!!

Susan - Are you shorts too big??!! Surely that's what you mean...LOL!

Gosh...I know that is more I want to say, but I've got to go. I'll finish later.

TTFN!!

Terri - my girls are 13 and 16 (17 next Monday!). Never a dull moment in my household! LOL

Marietta - hey there! Glad your meeting is over...
 
Christine,

You got bars on your windows??? LOL! I bet there is never a dull moment! Do your girls get along well? My son and daughter are quite different in some ways, but they do get along.
 
Let's see if I can get everone, if not sorry!

Terri and Christine-Hopw you ladies are not cathcing anything big. I hope it is allergies too. Mine are acting up. I see my specialist Friday in Wisconsin.

Charlotte-Congratulations on getting the job. If your family has a hard time pitching in kick them in the you know what and tell them to move it! lol

Susan-I keep track of what I eat using Sparkpeople. I also zig-zag my calories with it. I just combine them. I don't eat what they suggest but I try and stay in the guide lines for calories, carbs, fat, and protein other than that I do eat whatever fits for the day. If I can get cookies or ice cream to fit in there I will put them in. Bunko is just like a bad eating fest is all. Cocktail wieners, meat balls, bacon water chestnuts, desserts, and those are to name just a few things that are offered. lol

Dallas-I got your email and I emailed you back when I got home last night. Did you get it??

Terri-I hope you can get your family together for Easter. That would be nice.

Hi Marietta!!

Shoot I have to work in 35 minutes. I will check on you ladies from there if I am not busy (ROFL!!)
