Hardcore Rotation Checkin for Thursday Dec 15

Morning Ladies -

This morning I did TLP Core Cardio. I enjoyed it. I got new X-erings a while ago and I think they're too hard. I'm a wimp....and need the lighter resistance. Ouch ....my poor legs. I've only done that workout a couple times, but each time I do it, I like it more.

My sinuses have been awful. I had to call the doctor cuz I never really go over my cold. He put me on an antibiotic for a sinus infection but I don't feel like it's helping. I'm losing my voice and I'm so congested and stuffy. Ugh!!

Well, so much for not eating any more chocolate.....my boss gave me a box of chocolate covered nuts for Christmas. My pants are too tight this morning and I've gained a few pounds. I really need to stop this chocolate thing!

Have great workouts everyone and I'll try to check in from work.
 
Good Morning!

I did a 5 mile run on my treadmill this morning. I plan to get in a good leg workout during lunch today. Not Cathe but a good old-fashioned gym workout.

Oh Lora!! You were just finishing up your other chocolate and now you have more?? I feel for you. I'm glad chocolate is not a weakness of mine....hope you feel better soon.

Hi everybody...I'll check back in later.

Hi Ladies,

Lora-give the chocolates to a friend maybe? SInus probs hurt!
Marietta-Are you feeling better? What is the book SOul Matters about?
Nicole -I am addicted to SS :)

Hello to all who follow. I have to run to a clients house and I will check nback in later.

Terri
 
Okay Terri...the book is about a girl who grew up in the church and pretty much lived "right". She got married to a successful man and then became pregnant. Upon visiting the doctor she found out that she had an STD and she had not been with anyone else...long story short...she went through Hell and it shattered her faith...but she found her way back and her marriage and faith were both restored. I had a hard time putting the book down...I would dream about it at night wondering what would happen in the upcoming chapters...love books like that.

Probably more than you wanted to know...

We'll chat later...

Hello everyone,

This morning I did Muscle Max. I felt really good during this workout. :D

Lora, I know how it is being surrounded by goodies. It's so hard. Here at work, the treats are for everyone, but at home, I sometimes have to through things away. I try to make excuses like; oh I'll save it for company... Yeah, right. I know I'd be the one to eat it.
What color x-ering did you use? I have the yellow, green and red. I wish I purchased the ones with the cuffs.

Marietta, FIVE miles! I used to be a long distance runner years ago, now I think five miles would be very tough.

Hi to everyone else, I'll be back later.

Hello Everyone,
Well I did not get my workout in last night:eek: (Was not up to it TTOM:-( ) So I will do it today!! Just got back from my dd X-mas party. Had a good time:)

Terri what is it about these dvds? I was going to do another rotation, but I looked at my naked body today, and it is looking pretty darn good:7 So I am going to stick with these. Do you think we will still be doing them when Dallas gets hers? I think the toe weights will be nice with these dvds. Maybe not because I tell ya I still cannot get through the floor work in Burn it up. It kills!!

Marietta your book sounds exciting. What is the title? That would be a HARD thing to overcome!!

Lora I am eating chocolate like there is NO tomorrow!! I am looking at the up side........... the holidays will soon be over :7

Will try and come back later!!

~Nicole
 
Good afternoon,
Today I did C&W stopping at the abs, then did a 3.25 mile treadmill circuit doing the Timesaver upper body work sections off of #1, #2, &#3, then all of the abs off of the timesaver dvd and finished with C&W abs and stretch

Lora, I am sorry you have to be tempted with more chocolate. Most chocolate I dont care about but if it is dark chocolate and even better with nuts I have to eat it. Fortunately the only food gifts I have recieved so far was a tub of trail mix and a Starbucks gift pack with coffee and two biscotti.

Susan, Marietta did 7.25 miles Hills Monday. Great job Marietta!!! Since I recieved my treadmill I think the max I have done is 5.5
miles.

Hi to everyone,
Have a great day

Marietta-The book sounds great. I should e-mail you sometime as I need a bit of FAITH right now!

Susan-I wish I had some goodies around here to eat. I got a wake up call today that shocked me. I have lost ten pounds sice the stuff with my dad and mom and brother started. I did not need to lose 10 pounds! Actually I amexpecting a care package from a friend today!

Nicole-I think i am willing to continue with SS when dallas gets it are you?

Ok not sure what workouts I will do yet today but i will decide soon!

Terri

Dallas- what you up to today

Terri
 
I PASSED!! I PASSED! I PASSED!!!

WOO HOO!!!

I am so excited!! There are two different sections of the test, one is state and the other is general. I got a 94% on the state portion(50 questions) and an 85% on the general portion (100 questions).

Now I just have to go to Springfield and pass that test. UGH!! My test is Wednesday morning. Time to study some more.

I will have to check in later and see what everyone is up to, I just wanted to chime in and let you ladies know how I did.

Thanks for all the support!!

Love you guys!! ;-)
 
Hi Everyone,

My computer is freaking out again. I guess I should do a scan again to check for viruses. That means it'll be tied up the rest of the day and night.

Oh well, I did RS and PLB floorwork this AM. I did not feel like working out, but I'm so glad that I did. RS didn't seem so bad either. I only tripped over my step 4 times this time! LOL! I can see this one will be fun once I really get it and can get into it. During those scoops I looked ridiculous. I'll blame it on my shorter step.

Sabrina ~ Way to go! Is the test on Wednesday similar? That's awesome news.

Nicole ~ Thanks for the e-mail on audiobooks. I downloaded one last night.

Terri ~ I went to a christian book store yesterday for a gift for my sister. Maybe you could get a devotional or some other book. I have a few books. I'll check them out an e-mail you the titles. I have The Power of a Praying Parent on my night stand. I should get that on audio!;-)

Marietta ~ Your book sounds interesting. Your mom sounds like the sweetest lady.

Susan ~ How's baby? Are you having trouble sleeping yet? i couldn't sleep at the end AT ALL!

Lora ~ I hope the antibiotics kick in really soon! How's your boss?

Diane Sue ~ Another great workout! I thought you were under the weather?! It doesn't look like it! ;-)

OK, I have to wrap some gifts that need to get to the post office. That will be last of long distance gifts. DH said that he will take us out to dinner tonight! YES!!!

Have a good one everyone!

Dallas
 
GO SABRINA!!! GO SABRINA!!! GO SABRINA!!! GO SABRINA!!!!

SO HAPPY FOR YOU...ONE DOWN...ONE TO GO!!! YOU'LL DO GREAT!!

~Marietta
 
Yay, Sabrina!! Good going! That's a relief, it's it?

Diane Sue, that's right, Marietta did go 7.5 on Monday. She's an energizer bunny! hahaha You had a great workout too!

Dallas, I'm still sleeping like a BABY! Thank goodness. Have a great time at dinner tonight. We went out last weekend, it was nice.

Terri, when my first husband (who I had known for over half my life) said he didn't want a "career woman" and wanted to be a receptionist he met...I too lost a lot of weight. I was barely holding onto 80 pounds. I highly recommend the book Power for Living by Rick Warren. It's a daily devotional that takes only 5-10 per day to read. You can even get a journal that coincides with the book.Here is a link: http://www.pastors.com/pcom/specials/rickbio.asp

Dallas you got a good workout!! I'll say it again...I love RS!! Do you know if there are others like it??

Susan and Diane Sue...I just repeated that hill blaster workout 2x. Diane, do you want me to send you those treadmill hill workouts? If you do send me an PM with your email address and I will.

Terri - Susan is right...Rick Warren has some great stuff..he is also the author of The Purpose Driven Life.

Susan - that had to hurt, but time and faith can heal all wounds...you are living proof of that.

I did get in my weight workout during lunch today...good one!!
