Hi Michele. I just logged on, starting typing on this thread and the little bugger crawled under the desk and turned off the power. It took me about 5 minutes to get back on. He is so BAD!! ha!
Yes I do like my elliptical. As a matter of fact I used it last night. Did my 20-min HIIT. Now I don't know how accurate the calorie thingy is b/c you do not have to program your weight, or age or anything in, but it says that I am burning like 376 calories in 20 min. It is probably wrong but hey, I'm gonna keep believing that I"m a calorie-burning-machine! I see that your foot is still giving you trouble. Is it the same problem that you were having? I haven't done LowMax in ages - I could never get the pivot-turn thingamaggies right. What type of elliptical are you getting? I hate to sound dumb but what is an arc trainer? I just can't believe the price of it though.
Diane - sounds like you are having a lot of fun with your new family members. Have you been able to get in any workouts? I see that you worked late again. I don't know how you do it. They'd be waking me up at my desk if it was me.
Kate - what's up?????? Are you still doing your cardio marathans?
Jan-Jan, sounds like you are one busy mommy. Gannon is into EVERYTHING too. I mean everything. I no longer have any pictures on my end tables, no bowls, nothing. I've got a totally empty coffee table and one endtable with a tissue box and the remote. That is it b/c he destroys everything. Last night I was wondering why my dishwasher was taking so long. Here he pushed all the buttons in - who knows what kind of wacky cycle he had it on. The boy is BAD!!!
August - is Michele correct, your in the US know? If so, have a great time!
Not too much going on with me. I can't use the gym anymore. School starts back next Thursday so we can't use it anymore. So I"m back to walking at lunch. Sat I walked 4 miles, Monday I walked 6 miles and did PowerHour (man do I hate PH), yesterday I walked 2 miles, did 20 min HIIT and abs from SPJ and MIS, today I walked 2 miles and am hoping to do GS Shoulders/Back/Biceps. My fave DVD!
I think my co-worker really does not like me. Remember how I told you she kept using my printer? Well I never said anything to her. She kept printing everything to it. So my boss came out the other day to pick her stuff up off of it and noticed that most of it was the other ladies, so she told her not to use it. Thank God she told her b/c I know she wouldn't have listened to me. But she is so snappy towards me. In person, I think sometimes I come across as up front, bold type of person and I have a crude and sarcastic sense of humur But I am def not a *B* but I think she takes me the wrong way. B/C I will say something and she'll be jumping down my throat, it is like lady CHILL OUT! Today it was funny b/c I had a helper. One of the teacher's dropped off her son and he was helping get stuff ready for a training tomorrow. Well this other lady (who does weigh around 400+) lbs, breaks out all this candy and tries to give it to the little boy. This child is about 15lbs over weight and his mom is trying to get him to eat better. She sent him a bottle of water and a bag of pretzels if he got hungry. Well, one of my other co-workers (aka food nazi) went through the roof and told the little boy not to eat anymore junk b/c he should know what his mom said. Well then the lady who had all the junk food started getting all weird and saying that "oh no, she got out the contraband". Me being me, told him that if he ate anymore he would have to jog a mile wearing a vest filled with bricks. She did not think it was funny. Anyway, work is getting weird. I try to eat healthy and I work out all the time, my friend (aka food nazi) lost 152lbs and walks 10 miles a day and then the new lady is seated next to us. It is VERY awkward to say the least.
But enough of that, look at what I want: No I am not getting him, my DH will not pay $700 for a dog but isn't he the cutest thing:

Well I gotta get going. My taters are almost done and I"ve got to put the chicken on the grill.
Talk to you all later!
