I Hate Cardio - Sept 20

[August]

Oh what a beautiful day! (Since I've slept late and missed the morning part, heh.)

Michele - Speaking of which, did your soundtrack ever arrive? And how is 5-Factor going?

Dana - Hi! Yes, so glad to see you back and that you're all right. That hospital experience sounded terrible! I TOTALLY cracked up about the suing yourself part LMAO! Anyway, that kind of thing would piss me off to no end, too. In fact, I had such a bad experience with numbskulls at a Japanese big hospital, that now I choose only to go to clinics if I go at all. So did the doctor give you the thumbs up? Ohhhhh, yummm, ff pudding and protein powder sounds totally good. I've read some recipes for smoothies where you put in a pudding packet and it turns out all goopy. And y'all know how I feel about goop. Of all the sad things, Japan doesn't have those pudding mixes! They have all sorts of popular custard breads, so I would think those packets would do really well here, but,...nothin. I need to write to those makers of Jell-O....Wait a minute, did you say that a Triathalon "sounds fun"?!

Janjan - Urgh, your DD's awful ear infection is back? I hope it goes away soon. Lucky you for finding a nanny! She sounds like she's going to be wonderful. That's going to make such a difference!

Kate! Diane! How you doing?

Well, I just finished doing Christi's Cardio Collectibles . I was "supposed" to do Cardio Kicks for the first time, but Christi was calling my name. It's so funny I feel uninspired to do kickboxing for a while. I totally burnt myself out of it. I know, I shouldn't do that to my step, either. I think my endurance is getting better. I really have no trouble doing an hour of cardio in its entirety. On the downside, I'm starting to worry if my muscles have started getting..soft - looking at my arms, they seem to have lost the definition I "thought" I had when I was lifting heavy...or is that psychosomatic, do you think? :-(

Hi! Good morning! Bye--lol!

I'm sooooo going to be late for an appt. I'll check back later this afternoon:* :*

I am not working out for a few days. I am taking a rest. I think I have been overdoing it. Nothing in moderation, ya know. This is the third day that I will not be working out. I have been at the school alot too so when I am here, I have to do housework. Oh, doesn't that sounds good, like I am really spending all this time doing housework.

Anyway, I still have to go back and see what is going on. For example, hospital? Yuck, hate those places. Love the nurses but too bad they have to be in the hospital.

Wish I had some news other than my dog is loving all the walks due to the temperature dropping. I gotta go back and read. I am lost

But.........Diane, Project Runway is on tonight. I will tape it and watch it tomorrow morning! I will be crying when another season ends.

Kate - I can't wait for project runway today. Who do you think will be cut? I think it is between Uli and Laura, and I think it might be Uli who is sent home. Her designs are all the same. Laura's are all the same too, but not as much as Uli. I am having a Project Runway viewing party tonight at my house. Well not a real party, but just a group of girls over with food and martinis. No martinis for me though. But I baked some cookies last night for the party and they were sooo good. Tonight is definitely a cheat night!!

I haven't worked out for the past too days. Work is crazy right now and all I want to do in the morning is sleep sleep sleep. Oh well, I will get back on track.

August - Just in case you didn't see in the Open Forum, Christi Taylor selling some dvds for $10.

Hi everybody--

Man, have I had a big day! I left this morning for a hair appt, then I had to go to the optician because the glasses I wanted aren't available so I had to pick out another pair, then I went grocery shopping in 2 different stores, stopped for lunch, picked up something at the seamstress...UGH! I got home around 4 this afternoon and then realized I forgot a couple of things while I was out. OH!! Diane and Janjan, I mailed your packages today, too, and you should have them in 3 or 4 days.

I'm doing well on 5FF (except that I missed my w/o yesterday, which is ok because today was supposed to be my day off and I'm going to use it as a make up day). It's perfect for me right now. VERY doable, NO dread factor, and I feel like I'm getting a good workout. I think I'll be ready for Cathe again in about 2 months.

Kate, you should try this. I think you overdo it and may be setting yourself back because of it. It's 5-Factor Fitness. I'm not really following the diet part; it's the workout that attracted me to the plan.

I was so sick yesterday. I was out running errands and I had to come home before I was finished. I became nauseated and had to go to bed. I couldn't even lift my head once I laid down, that's how awful it was. Anyway, I was in bed until 9 PM last night then, of course, I couldn't sleep last nigt because of the long nap ;(

August, I'm sorry. I think as far as sleep goes we're just screwed for now. I have hope that it will get better, though.

Okay, I need to get dinner going--lentil soup--again.

Hey Kate and Diane, I think PR is a rerun tonight. They won't show a new episode until next Wednesday:-( . I hope Jeffrey gets booted. I can't stand him.

Okay, this is like my 3rd edit--lol! I just can't keep a though in my head to save myself.

August, I got my Oklahoma CD and I LOVE it.
