Morning Everyone,

This morning I overslept a half hour. I must have shut my alarm off. I couldn't sleep last night and only got about 4 hours. I only had time to do Plyo Legs (P90 Masters). I really like that workout. It's fun.

I really have to get into the groove of working again after being off those few weeks. It seems I never have time to do anything at home any more. I'll try to check in later from work.

Have great workouts everyone.
 
Hello Everyone,
Today I did tone it up!! I want to tell you all I really like working out in the am.:)

Lora you will get back to it!!

Sabrina MERRY CHRISTMAS:7 I am so excited for you!! Did you do your Jillian workouts yet?? If so do you like them???

Susan sleeping in the basement was actually very nice :) The room is fixed up, and we got out the inflatable mattress's, and big blankets. So we were nice and cozy:D I think these would be a good change of pace for you since you are such a heavy lifer etc.... You will be surprised at what all those reps feel like..... They really BURN}( (Don't they Terri and Lora haha) I think adding one of the workouts before or after baby would do your body good:)

Marietta which mat do you have?? I think my girls would like it... I think I would even have fun with it:D

Terri I have to tell you my fat layers seem to be melting away?? I woke up this am and getting ready for my workout and low and behold I can notice a remarkle difference in my body???? (abs, hips,butt) I have not got bored with these as I thought I would??? Tell me have you started to see the same???? I am really amazed at what consistant high rep and low wt can do?? This am when I was doing tone it up I thought about you when I was doing those front raise's with the lunges/knees/kicks man those get hard toward the end. I know you are doing this one more than me:) :) I think this is one of her harder ones???

Diane Sue my dad has a bowflex, but does not use it??? My brother has one and loves it!! I wish my dad would use it!!


Well sorry so long....

Good Morning!!

This morning I did PLB. I'll do something at lunch today and then I also have class this evening.

Lora - you must have been tired...that's why you overslept.

Nicole - I am so happy for you that you are seeing results from your workouts...that is awesome. I love my morning workouts...I'm now hooked on morning workouts. My DD has the Dance Revolution mat.

Hi Everyone that follows....I'll check back in later. Another busy day for me...

Hey Ladies,

Today is going to be a SS wrorkout and Gymstyle chest and triceps. I am not sure which cathe cardio I will do today. As you can tell since getting the SS I am following my own rotation on everything else. I wish tear it up would hurry up and arrive in the mail so I can have another one to do.

Lora-II am sure you will get a routine down soon.
Nicole-OMG do those lunges/knee/kicks burn or what? :) Funny I thought of you the other day when doing them! Yes I too am very surprised at how different my clothes feel in lower area after just a week! I am very pleased althogh my friend told me yesterday that I was getting too thin. I am a size 4 and just wanted smaller hips and less jiggle in the saddlebags and I am getting my wish :) I also do the SS workouts first thing in the am. The only workouts I look forward to do first thing. I think it is beacuse they ARE giving me the results I have been wanting.
Susan-Oh Hey I signed up for the e-catalogues online from VS. Thanks for the tip on that. Beats getting tons of catalogues in the mail.
Marietta-I f you ever get a SS workout I would love to see what you have to say about these.
Sabrina-Soon you will be Infomercialing right along with us on SS :)
Dallas-Ok what have you got left to do for Christmas :) You are so organized! I am going to go buy cards today and try to get those done for my clients so I can get them out the day after thanksgiving.
Diane SUe-Are you getting ready for Thanksgiving ?
ETA Marietta thanks for the e-mail. I will look those over later and I am sure I will use those when I run.
My day went crazy yesterday so lets hope it doesnt't today! I will be back:)

Terri
 
Morning ladies!

Lora-you must have needed the sleep. I wish I could have slept in. My youngest had to get into bed with me again last night. That is the second night in a row. I don't sleep when he does that.

Nicole-I have not got to try my Jillian workouts yet. I was busy yesterday off and on and I have to get my reading in today for my class this evening. It is never ending. I guess at least I have most of my Christmas shopping done. :) I wish I could workout in the am. Are you getting up early? I will end up getting my Slim Series by the time you finish. haha

Marietta-Have a great class this evening.

Hi Dallas, Susan, Diane Sue, and Terri!! (I hope I didn't forget anyone-I am sleep deprived)lol

I will be back later!! Have a great day!
 
Good Morning All!

Today I did the 40 minutes steady state run. I only got in 4.5 miles. I'm kind of slow today. :-( Must have been from babysitting 7 kids yesterday (ages: 6, (2)4y/o, (3) 2y/o, and one 10 month old baby)! Four of us mom's decided to do this twice a week, so we can get out can finish Christmas shopping. Two moms stay in and two go out and shop. I get tomorrow morning!:D The kids really played well together. I also did Core Max #2 and SM #2.

Marietta ~ Thanks you! Thank you! Thank you for the e-mail with the treadmill workouts. Oh boy, that rolling hill one looks tough! I'll have to work my way up to that one. Which ones have you done? How did you like them?

Susan ~ I'll e-mail you why I've returned Core Secrets. I hate to be negative and I know that others like that one. Brooke Burke does look awesome. As my dh would say, "She's got it going on!" :) Isn't it amazing when you really think that a living little person is growing inside your belly?!

Nicole ~ My dh asked what I wanted for Christmas and I told him the step and SS. He said you won't like SS. I told him about you guys and how much you're loving it. I even e-mailed him that coupon for Beachbody. ha ha!

Terri ~ Yes, your son e-mailed me back. Thanks. He said I could pay using Paypal.I just don't know where to purchase the CD. As for what I have left: the adults, all the wrapping, taking the Christmas card picture, stocking stuffers. So you see too much! But, it's getting done little by little.

Diane Sue and Susan ~ Thanks for the info on the Bowflex. We still would have the squat rack and all the free weights too. Maybe it's not necessary? We'll have to go to a store and check it out.

Lora ~ I agree with Terri. You'll get back into a routine really soon.

Sabrina ~ My ds has been in our bed since Halloween! I know what you mean about not sleeping.

Have a great day everyone! I'll check back later.

Dallas
 
Dallas-If you want send a check to him at my address and I can just mail you the signed cd. I will pick one up from him on saturday. Or e-mail him back and ask where you are suppose to purchase it from using paypal.

Terri
 
Terri ~ Thanks. I'll do that. I'll e-mail you in a bit. Way to go with the clothes being looser! I know I was amazed when I put on those pants the other day. The funny thing is the scale only went down 3 pounds. Weird, huh?

Nicole ~ You go girl! Wow! Now I might have to bump the step down on my list! ha ha!
 
Hi there,

This morning I did PH warm up, MIS Back and Biceps, then SH Back, then KPC punches and blocks (40 min.) premix. I even did some crunches on the stability ball.

This morning was my monthly dr. apt. I didn't gain any weight, so I'm still 105 pounds. That surprised me since I got into Halloween candy a lot this year (at home and at work). I must be loosing muscle.
My glucose test came back excellent. My blood levels are "better than normal". I asked her if it's still ok to do jumps (like jumping jacks) she said "NO". A leisurely walk for ONE mile is good. Oh my! Her reson was it's bad for my ligaments. Let's just say, I've never enjoyed kickboxing. ;)

Dallas, I believe you can get a Bowflex that comes with a squat rack or bar. I really liked owning one. You can do every exercise on it.

Nicole, your basement is a lot different than mine. Mine is mostly for storage. So, what's this about a coupon code for SS? hmmm?

Oh, I've got to go. Darn this job! haha I'll be back later.

Susan

Susan ~ Here's the thread about the coupon:

Thanks again about the Bowflex. I think that will be a purchase down the road.:)
 
Terri I wear a size 4 also:7 But my new low waisted jeans that could look better with more toned abs/back area I have a small intertube that I want GONE:7 ........... I am starting to see a noticable difference since starting shocking my system with something different than Cathe. She gave me such a good foundation. I don't think I could have gotten through Debbies lunges if it had not been for Cathe;-)

Dallas and Susan you *may not* like these???? But you just might enjoy them like Terri, Lora and I have:7 You don't have to really use your brain as much when doing these workouts ha ha. I just get up and do my workout. Go over and read reviews on Videofitness.com that might help. They also have a everything thread on these workouts as well and on ya ya's. I read everything about them again and that really motivated me to do a rotation.

Oh my........ Marietta are you getting interested in these to??? :7

Take care,
~Nicole
 
Ok, I'm celebrating Christmas early for myself like Sabrina. Last week I ordered Power Strike Millennium Volume 1 (kickbox). That's due today or tomorrow.
AND NOW... I just ordered the Firm It Up. It's on sale. I really didn't want the total body workouts. So, with shipping it was almost $18.
That it. I've got other people to shop for now. Thank goodness I paid for Cathe's already. ;)


Susan C.M.
 
Susan I think you are going to really enjoy Firm it up!! It has LOTS Of squats. Did you ever see the show the Swan??? I guess on top of all the exerise's they also did one of Debbies workouts and Firm it up was the favorite!!

Sabrina you crack me up!! I could'nt agree with you more!!! That is what I always do because then you don't have any mix ups!!

Dallas I hope your dh does not order you Slim in 6 instead of Slim series :eek:

~Nicole
 
Hey again!

Susan and Sabrina ~ You guys crack me up! :7 We'll need reviews ladies! Susan, glad to hear everything went well for your dr. appointment. You're only 105 lbs pregnant! Wow, what do you weigh when you're not pregnant!? :p

Umm, I think dh bought SS for Christmas. He's terrible about keeping secrets. He was asking me a lot of questions. Hmm, I wonder if I can get Turbo Jam out of him. hee hee. :7 I'm more excited about this than jewelry. :D

My ds has a friend coming over to play. Hopefully, they will stay busy so I can finish up the Christmas cards.

Dallas
 
Nicole and Dallas--I am here to entertain!! LOL! I will give reviews when I get them. Hopefully I can find time. I am having a hard time remembering when I did get a good workout in. That is not good!! x( We are having Thanksgiving at my MIL's and she is having everyone in the large open basement so maybe I should volunteer to go up and down the stairs with the food. LOL!!! :D
 
Nicole - I meant to ask this morning. Do you have the Hollywood Trainer series? I thought a 2 week rotation would be fun. They are similar to Slim Series. Gotta run, my boss is here.
 
Good late evening ladies!

I am home from class. Long night. Lots more information thrown at us. We have a mid-term on Monday. I believe we will be allowed to bring it home (I hope). I will be up for a while trying to get some of the worksheets done and maybe some reading too. I don't want to fall too far behind. I meet with the manager of the real estate office that I want to go to tomorrow at 11:00. Cross your fingers for me. I am not sure what I need to ask. I better get thinking about it. I am not sure if it is a plus or a minus yet that I know the guy. He is the realtor that we always use and I also graduated from high school with one of his sons (we are friends too).

Better get studying!! See you ladies in the morning!!
 
Hi everyone,
It is late. I have been so busy. Today's workout was HSCh w/u and cardio, HSTA cardio,Interval Max cardio, Slow & Heavy legs, Bowflex leg curls, extensions, calves 3 sets ea., Pyramid lower floor work and st.

I was sore after this. I guess I have not done it for awhile. I really enjoyed it.

Are you all ready for Chistmas? I had my son help pull things from the attic. I am going to start putting them out.I am looking forwards to my Dad's visit as well.

I looked at Target for the Slim Series and found none. You girls have peaked my interest. I like new challenges

Have a great evening!
