Morning Everyone,

This morning I did HSTA plus the ab segment from KPC. I really enjoyed this workout and would enjoy it even more if it didn't have the generic music in it. It is a good mix of exercises and cardio and I think it's totally different than High Step Challenge. I didn't do anything extra today, as I'm not planning on taking a rest day tomorrow, so I'll most likely do the eliptical/bike, stretch segment and one of my new Yoga Booty Ballet DVDs. I've also got Turbo Jam on the way from Beachbody. I've got lots to look forward to when I need a change!

Have great workouts everyone. Closet organizers Unite!
 
TGIF!!!

This morning I did BC followed by KM Blast Challenge. Felt REALLY good!! Took me about 1:15 to do this workout. Don't think I'll be doing anything else today...but who knows??

Lora...Didn't you say you have 100's of workouts??

Have great workouts everyone....I'll check back in later.

Morning ladies!

Sounds like some great workouts.

I have a walk in so far and I know I will get another in later when I walk to get the boys from school. I am going to have to rearrange my schedule and my workouts in in the morning I think. Maybe I will take the older two boys to school, then come home and pop in a DVD or hook up the V smile and let my youngest play. Something to keep his interest for a while. I am going to try to get something in later but we have the B-day party to go to this evening.

Have a great day ladies!! I am going to try and find my book tomorrow when I have to go shopping for gym shoes for my older two boys. Are we still planning on starting Monday? I'll check in later with hopefully a workout in! ;-)
 
Hi guys,

I allowed myself to sleep in today, for once. I slept until 7! I barely had time to w/o and get us ready for my doctor's apt.

I did (sorry, not Cathe) The Firm Tough Tape. It's about 45 minutes. It's a total body workout with some step-ups and no abs.

My apt. didn't go very well. I'm still less than 100 pounds at 15 weeks. The worst part was they found cancer cells in my pap. My dr. said not to concern myself now, since there is nothing I (or they) can do. I'll have "treatment" after the baby is born.

Today is my favorite day of the week. I spend it all day with my son doing whatever we want. He some games and activities planned. So, I’m off. I'll check in over the weekend.

Hello Ladies-I am debating on my workout as I feel sick still. I don't have stepfit so maybe I will do a run or the workout marietta suggested to me the other day. I really hate to take another rest day so soon. I took one on sunday! I am going o try something and if I feel to bad I will just stop early. I just have to be better soon! I am getting depressed.

Ok sorry to be such a whiner.

Marietta-Hope you have a great friday
Lora-when is your trip ? My gosh you have a great collection going there!
Sabrina-Have fun at the party tonight:)

Hello to all who follow.

Terri
 
Terri - I'm going to play mother hen here...you really don't need to workout!! You are only prolonging your illness by doing so. So what do you prefer? Sit it out and get better sooner or workout and feel bad longer? The choice is yours...I promise, promise, promise, that you will not lose anything.

I workout a lot because I really love it. However, if I ever feel lousy because I'm sick then It's not the same and that takes all the fun out of it for me...know what I mean??

Marietta-Thanks so much for saying what you did. When I hear it from you that you take rest times and that I won't lose anything I believe it! The line about getting better sooner and it being my choice really hit home. Yeah the workouts I have been doing were not fun for sure. Thanks again Marietta and I will now rest! :)

Terri
 
Susan - I hope everything works out with your problem. Sorry to hear the news.

Terri - Sorry to hear you're not feeling well.

Yes, I have lots of DVD's and videos, but a lot of them are really old and some of them are way too easy. I don't pitch anything. My hubby says to save the easy ones to use when I'm in my 70's.....LOL!!
 
Susan- I am sorry that you are going through this. I will be thinking of you and praying and I bet that all will be fine! Hang in there.

Terri
 
Susan - Good for you for listening to your body and sleeping in today...

You are in my thoughts and prayers regarding the cancer cells that were found. I know this is something that happens alot and in most cases it's nothing to be concerned about. Some people just tend to have these cancer cells and just have to stay on top of examinations and such.

I'm glad you are not going to let it get you down and that you are going to enjoy the day with your son...that's how it should be!!

Sabrina - hope you get that workout in today!!

Terri - Hey...that's what we're here for...right??

Good Afternoon Everyone!

Chiming in really late here. My computer found a virus. I started doing a scan at 8:30A and it just finished. It came through e-mail! x( Everything appears to be back to normal.

Susan ~ You'll be in my thoughts and prayers as well. There's nothing doctors can do right now? Like Marietta said, it's so good your staying so positive.

Terri ~ You should take a rest day. I woke up with a sore throat. I guess my ds's cold and lack of sleep the other night is what did it. I worked out, but later felt like a bus hit me. Aches everywhere. I don't think it's DOMS because it was everywhere. So, looks like I'm taking the weekend to rest. Have you heard of Airborne? www.airbornehealth.com. I started it first thing and I actually feel somewhat normal right now. I also took a nap with my ds. I can't be sick either, school starts next week. Hope you feel better.

Marietta ~ I skipped ahead to day 1 of week 4. All the substitutions were driving me crazy.
I like MM and have really come to love PLB especially the floor work. I agree with you completely on feeling lousy and prolonging getting better by working out. It's so hard and I don't always follow that advice either. You should Terri. You're vacation is so close!

Lora ~ How's that foot?

Sabrina ~ Yes, Monday we'll start with Day #1 again.

Hi Nicole ~ Hope you're enjoying delicious chocolate b-day cake today!:D

Have a great weekend everyone!

Dallas
 
Hey Dallas! Sorry about your computer...I'd be lost if my computer were tied up like that all day. Hope you begin to feel better soon.

I really do like week 4 and I'm glad I did it instead. There's nothing wrong with week 3, but I knew I would get frustrated because there was so much that I did not have. I'm kind anal and I have to do things the way the are supposed to be done or I don't want to do it. I know it's sick, but what can I say...

Tomorrow, the rotation (aug05/week 4) calls for GS C/T and GS B/S/B. I think I'll do one tomorrow and the other one on Sunday. I'm thinking I'll get more out of it that way.


Well...I'm heading home.

Hi to all that check-in later!!

I'll try to check in over the weekend, but I won't make any promises.

Hi Everyone -

Just need to vent. I just had the day from you know what. First off, I had $40 stolen from my purse because I left it unattended with the summer Volunteer (who has stolen other money from the office), but just to go to the bathroom for a minute. Also, all of the stuff I asked her to deliver to the hospital (for a HUGE class on Monday AM) didn't get delivered (Missing in Action) and I needed to run back and forth from my building to the hospital all day. I was so stressed out that I was ready to lose it between all of that and trying to do my daily job activities. My foot is all swollen from walking (practically running) back and forth all day. So now, MORE than ever....tomorrow will definitely not be a rest day. I will definitely be way too wound up to rest. I'm just so appalled that someone could take money like that (and more than once). It was her last day and I checked my purse and money about 2:30 pm and it was there. She left at 3:10 pm and my money was gone. I filled out a report with Security but there's nothing anyone can do cuz I can't prove it.
 
Lora-That really stinks that you cannot do anything about your money being stolen. Sounds like she was not a good volunteer. I would definately give her a terrible reference is someone calls asking about her. I hope you foot fells better after some rest time.

Dallas-Sorry to hear about your computer. My laptop has been acting up lately too. We have even installed some new Antivirus software and it is still not running right.

I got my book!! DH stopped at Borders on his way home from work to get it for me. He is such a sweetie! I will try and read some of it later. I still need to read the Kite Runner too. Who all is starting the book (30 days to a simplier life) on Monday?

Have a great weekend!! I will try to check in! Come hell or high water I am going to get a workout in tomorrow!! (i hope)! hehe ;-)
