Morning Everyone -

I can't believe it's Monday already. The weekend sure did fly by! This morning I did Muscle Max followed by 15 minutes of Imax 3 Blasts Only premix (the rotation called for a 3 mile run and I don't run). I modified on the rebounder for my foot.

I hope everyone starts to feel better soon. It sucks being sick.
Have great workouts everyone!!
 
Morning Everyone!

Lora-The weekend did go by too fast! Good workout!

I hope we all start to feel better soon too. I hate coughing! I hate being up all night! My 3 year old wouldn't stay in his bed last night so I was up even more. He kept kicking me.

I am going to try and get a workout in later this morning but if not I will try for this evening. I have a feeling my SIL might show up later though. I have no idea what workout. I am thinking cardio maybe or a full body workout.

I have my book and I am ready to start with day one! Is everyone ready to go?

Have a great day and workout!! :)
 
Good Morning,

Boy, the weekend flew by! Today I did MM, PLB stability ball and MIC aerobics. It felt good to lift weights again after all this cardio.

Lora, what did you purchase from Lush? They have a lot of interesting products. I liked the description of the henna hair color. Do you know if it's perminant?

Dallas, I hope you and your family feel better real soon. That really stinks being sick.

Nicole, my son loves Build-a-Bear! Sound like you have a great time there with your dd. It is a fun place.

Sabrina, yard work *is* a workout, especially pulling weeds.

Terri, those Capri pants look cute. I won't be getting anything like that any time soon.

Hi Marietta!

Have a great day everyone and get better!!

Susan
 
Hello Everyone!

Happy Monday! Am I the only one not sick around here??!! I hope everyone gets better soon.

I'm not working today...my kids start school today and they only go 1/2 day so I took off.

So far this morning I did the Step portion of MIC. I know I'm going to work my back and do some more cardio (probaby run), but I don't know yet.

Yesterday...I just walked on my treadmill (high incline) for about 30 minutes and I did GS-C/T.

Saturday...I just did CTX Step Only. That's all I had time for...went shopping for school supplies and all that good stuff.

Lora - I went back and read the thread from Sunday...you were workin it weren't you!! Girl...don't hurt nobody!!

Terri - I'm so glad you are taking it easy. You'll be back in the groove in no time. Watch how much stronger you are going to feel! Those capri's are cute...I'll have to check them out!

Susan- It will feel great to do weights...that's how I felt last week.

Dallas - You better yet?

Nicole - Glad to hear the party went so well...sounds like you have a very happy DS!

Sabrina - Hey Miss Busy Body - let us know what you get into today.

Take care everyone...I'll try to check back in later.

How is everyone doing with Day 1-filling a shopping bag (garbage bag)? I am on a roll! I have been in my closet and I have 3 bags. Woo hoo! My DH would be so proud! haha I might have to move to another closet while I am on a roll. This was a great idea. I just have to decide what to do with my clothes. I thought about ebay but I have no idea how to even begin there. Is it hard? Have fun ladies! I will check in again later.

The only workout I have in so far is walking my boys to school and I will walk to pick them up too. :)
 
Hi Ladies,

Today I will be doing workouts again! I was going to do upperbody the remembered the rotation today called for musclemax. I think I will do that and run on the treadmill, That way I hit every part after my few days of rest! I will do a run this a.m. and the weights later so I have a rest in between. I am still just a tad weakish so better to split it up.

Dallas-how are you feeling
Sabrina-and you?
Nicole I am ready for day one of the book...is everyone else?
Lora-you did do some awesom workouts for sure!
Susan-Isnt muscle max a great workout? I love it:)
Marietta-nice to see you back here again.

I will check back later as well

Susan - I've practically tried everything from Lush, except for the Hennas, as I have to color my hair (premature grey). I've heard good things about them though if you have the patience to prepare them. I think they last for months. There is an online-forum for Lush that you could probably do a search on and I'm sure you'd find plenty of info on it. I'm absolutely in love with their Bath Bombs and Bubble bars, as they don't put synthetic stuff like canola oil in them. I have to be careful what I use in my baths, as I'm prone to UTI's. I'm absolutely addicted to their deodorants, but the Kryztals are like a powder bar and if you don't use an emery board over the surface before you apply, it's hard to apply. They also have ones that are solids. Their hair products are really good also. The owner has a degree in Trichology. I love their shampoo bars which are really good for vacations....just like throwing a bar of soap in your travel bag. The shower gels are also great, but their discontining a lot of my fave's.....Chai, Narcotic and Happy for SAD. Anyway, I'll quit rambling now. Some of their stuff does take a little time to get used to since it is so different than commercial stuff, i.e., shampoo bars and solid conditioners.
 
Hello Everyone,
Well today the kids went to school;( I got teary eyed dropping my dd off to middle school then when I dropped off my kindergartener;(

So far my exercise has been walking the boys and dd to school. Then when I picked my dd up from kindergarten this afternoon. I rode our tandem bike. I laughed all the ride over to school. (thinking how goofy I looked,but dd thought it was so neat:7) I liked the fact I did not have to wait in a car line.

Sabrina you GO GIRL!!! Terri....... her and Dallas are really making me look bad:p So far today I have 1 garbage bag of toys and 1 garbage bag of garbage (ie: broken toys etc....)

Sabrina now you KNOW you have to get it out of the house}(

Oh when I was walking to school I saw one of my friends sisters outside weeding. She said "you look so good have you lost weight"? I said no (I have not lost a pound, but I have lost body fat!!! :D

Well I gotta go get BUSY!!!!!!! :7 Today I plan on doing MM, PLB and I am going to pull out BSS3 and do fat blasting cardio.

I will be BACK to see how everyone else is doing!!

~Nicole
 
Nicole-That is my problem I have not idea what to do with the stuff. I thought about storing it in the garage and putting it on ebay since the clothes are in great shape but I didn't know if it was going to be a big hassle. Have to think on it.

Sounds like you have a great workout planned!! :)
 
Hi Everyone!

Terri ~ What exactly did you have? I called my regular doctor and he agreed that it's viral (he saw the report from the other doctor) and I have to let it run it's course. He said usually 7 days!:-( Seven days of not working out! Not that I feel like it right now. I woke up this morning feeling worse than ever. I really don't want the other 2 kids to get this. Glad to hear you're working out again. I did that work out Friday. That was a good little work out. In hindsight, maybe I should have taken the day off.

Sabrina ~ Good for you! Keep filling up those bags!:) It's so easy once you get started. I have started a bag today, but it's slow moving here.:-(

Nicole ~ Glad you had so much fun over the weekend with your daughter!:) School starts tomorrow.:-( Tonight I have an open house for my son. Tomorrow night for my dd. Nicole, that's awesome that someone is noticing your hard work! You go girl! I would love to see you riding a tandem bike!:7

Lora ~ Have you started packing for your trip? Are you going to work out on vacation too?

Marietta ~ What rotation are you following this week? Are you figuring it out as you go?

Hi Susan ~ Thanks for the well wishes!

Well, since I'll be taking more days off from working out, I'll be cleaning more stuff out. Watch out Nicole, Terri, and Sabrina!}(

Dallas
 
Dallas - Yes, I'm packed. We're leaving 6:00 am on Saturday morning. I packed over the weekend. Hubby's packed also. The cat's are depressed and pouting (my kids).

I didn't realize there were people in our group that finished the rotation! I'm not working out on vacation. It will be my "total rest" 5 days. I usually do this twice a year when we go to Vegas. I will strech some and do a lot of walking, but no weights or aerobics.
 
Ok I am back to say I did my run. I am also going to say that I am not back to full speed yet. I toned it down a notch and made it. Still have MM and plb ball work later. I will listen to my body and if tomorrow I feel I did too much I will take it easier.

So far I have cleaned out my cabinets under my bathroom sinhs and kitchen counters. I just take the stuff to a goodwill drop off place by my house:) Yeah nicole, Sabrina and Dallas are making us look bad!

Dallas-To be honset the doc didn't give me a diagnosis. He said my throat was red and stuff and then gave me the antibiotics just in case it wasn't viral. Since the antibiotics have not produced a wonderful recovery I am thinking mine is viral as well. I feel stuffy sometimes and achy and throat was raw. I know I am better but not 100 percent and I have had this for awhile now. I should have taken rest days sooner and maybe I would be The "old me". I am better though and that is the important part:) Try to nap and rest as much as you can. I hope you will be back to feeling great soon.

Lora-I leave thursday and I haven't even packed yet! I beter get on that.

Terri
 
Hey Terri,
This afternoon I ended up going to wallys and tryed on those pants. They only had 2 meds. The lady that worked there said they would not be getting anymore. So I ran over to another walmart and found the last 2 pair of smalls: coral and tan. (they had a light blue, but I did not care for the color) Just WANTED to so say THANK YOU !!!! I am SO HAPPY!!:D They are so CUTE!!

Well I had better get going!! I am going to go get my work out in!!

Still only 2 bags out today. I am ready for day 2}(

~Nicole

I will try and check in again later :D
 
YAY Nicole- I found another small at a different walmart in tan and my friend went and picked them up for me! So you and I could be twins with our coral and tan pants:) Thsy had a darblue but it was medium and it would be to big. I am glad you like them..arent they comfy as well as cute!

Terri
 
Lora-I am going to San Diego. Staying right on the beach and I am so excited. I hope you have fun in vegas. I went there last summer and had a great time. I have been there so much though that this year I decided on San Diego again.
