Once again, WAAAYYYYY too much time on my hands!

This week was not so clean, but I am determined to do better! Also, my focus is coming and going with my workouts (which results in not-so-clean eating), so I need to get it together on that front as well.

WO today will be some KPC cardio, followed by Legs & Glutes, then showerMAX, then shopMAX with Collin and my Mom!!
 
Morning

Last night we ate at McDonalds and no I did not have a salad. I ate a chicken and baby spinach for lunch and then no snack. So fo dinner I ate two cheese burgers but no fries. Today I will do better.

I plan to start my endurance rotation on Monday.

b-??
l-chicken and spinach oriental salad
d- baked chicken and rice

I feel like ordering a old step DVD from Cathe:)
 
I like our title Katie!!! Good luck with the eats the weekend/week! You can do it! Think of the lbs you dropped this week! Sounds like you'll have a fun time with your mom. She keeping Collin busy so you can WO?

Robin, mmmmmm,....cheeseburgers....(wipes drool off face). A new step for you? Is your old one getting rickety?

---------
This AM we take Mufasa to a fundraiser/dog show. We go every year - kinda cool to have the biggest dog there!:D then I meet Michigan Catheites for lunch!!!! I can't wait! Hoping to do some shopping too. I shouldn't be on my feet for too long tho - last night I was contracting like crazy, Mike was **freaking** out. (We're packing our bags for the brith center tonight!) NOt sure if I'll do an official WO today - there will be a lot of walking at the dog show. It's outside and its a beautiful day here today - looking forward to it!

---------
++++++++++ 3 weeks til my due date +++++++++++++++
Can you believe it?!?!?!?!!?
But both Gina and Isabel were a week and a half early, so I'm hoping Julia is too!!!
 
Hey girls!

There must be something in the air with bad food! Remember how we had pizza the other night and I endulged? Well, there are leftovers in the fridge and yesterday I caved! Ugh! Plus yesterday was a rest day so I didn't even burn any add'l calories. We didn't end up moving as much stuff as I thought we would - hubby had a long day at work and wasn't up to it!

Katie - Wow, I can't believe you can do KPC AND Legs and Glutes and still are able to walk to shop. I'm in awe of you! :p

Kate- I thought that having your due date on my birthday was cool but every time I see your signature line I think "Man I'm getting closer and closer to being 34!!!" Ugh! Well, we're hoping little Julia comes before then anyway right? Come on baby!! Enjoy the weather! It is beautiful in Chicagoland too!

Robin - Your lunch sounds yummy!

Okay so today - ballet class for Ava, run to lowe's for a couple of things, move a load to new house, nap for ava, move more stuff, etc., etc., etc! Depending on how much I move, I'm scheduled for Butts and Guts. We'll see...

Have a great day!

Morning ladies,

Not sure if you guys saw my late night post yesterday but we had a long day. Ellie (our 2 year old) fell and cracked her front left tooth so we had to go to the dentist. Hopefully it will firm back into its socket (it's a little loose now) and they can put a crown on it. Otherwise, they might have to extract it which would mean she'd be missing a tooth until she's about 6 which is sad to me. :(

Anyway, hopefully today will be better. The family that is renting our house and buying my min van is coming over for dinner (pizza, wine, dessert!) tonight.

This morning was supposed to be SJP but since it's not on DVD, it's on our computer and run through our TV I couldn't do it b/c Ryan's been messing with his new computer. Bummer. So, I decided to get outside b/c it was beautiful! I went for a walk/run and got to watch the AZ sunrise over the mountains which was gorgeous. I think now that the kids are up we're going to go back out for a while for a walk and let Annabel ride her bike.

Katie, keep up the good work with your WOs and hang in there!

Robin, I always feel like ordering Cathe videos!

Kate, I can't believe you're getting SO close. YAY! Are you doing a water birth or just normal? I was so determined to do natural births but had to be induced both times b/c I had issues so it didn't happen. :mad:

Nat, sounds like you have a busy day today. Hope it's a good one. Moving can be so crazy. Every time I move I say I never want to do it again!

We have a lady from the animal league coming over this morning to take pictures of our cats to put in the newspaper. So sad. :(

Have a great day all!

Natalie, Sorry for the leftovers attack! I love leftovers when they're healthy, but when thye're not - yikes!!! I try to give away to our parents any desserts leftovers we ever have because I'll just nibble away til its gone. DH has will power of steel and can totally leave them alone! I'm jealous! Your bday is 21 days away!!! My bday is Oct 27. Today is Sept 27 so I told Mike he's got exactly a month to shop for me and has now been given fair warning!! I love B&G - can't wait to do it again!

Angie, AH!! Poor Ellie!!!! What a brave little trooper!!!Sorry about your kitties too! What a bummer! Are the kids sad? Have a fun night tonihgt! Your workout sounds beautiful!!! I think I probably will end up doing a water birth. The room has a huge tub in it and they say 80% of the moms who deliver there deliver in the tub. If I'm in the bed or somewhere esle tho its' not like I'm going to be "Stop the press! I need to get in the tub!" So far I've managed both girsl naturally. There are NO drugs at the birth center so I wouldn't have a choice this time anyway! Wish me luck!

--------
Dog show was fun - I'm headed off for my Catheite luch soon!
 
Why-o-why did I go to Walmart? I just went there for some gym cloths for DD and brought a flat screen TV. I thought about the new TVs Katie brought when she moved. :cool: And I deserve a b-day gift and ...and...:D
My b-day was in July BUT I needed a bigger flat screen TV to do Cathe w/o. Remember that I said I was going to do something for myself.

Kate all that walking that you did with Mufasa and lunch may cause you to really have contractions and then.....YAY

Nat Butts and Glutes? you've done enough of that lifting boxes. Enjoy that is a killer w/o.

Angie sorry about Ellie tooth she must have cried. I wished I lived close to you because I love cats.

Hi Everyone!

I am sweaty and waiting for the Directv man to leave so I can shower and eat lunch. I am feeling better today. The headache is gone but my allergies are bad. Everyone around me is sneezing so it is something in the air.

Kate, have fun at lunch!
Nat, sorry about the leftovers. I usually throw them away because they are too tempting.
Angie, sorry about Ellie's tooth. I hope they can fix it.
Robin, I think the Cardio/ME rotation was my first Cathe rotation.
Katie, good luck refocusing this weekend. I know it is hard when you get off track.

w/o 4 mile run, Circuit Zone UB, LIC Abs
b: oatmeal w/ almonds
s: banana
rest of day is tbd
 
Robin, Congrats on your bday purchase!!!! I love all your smily things you post! No baby tonight - some contractions but nothing labor-worthy! Enjoy the rotation! I'm half glad STS won't be coming out til December. Now I won't feel guilty for not jumping right into it after Julia is born.

Steph, You haven't posted all week. I know you're working today but at least let us know you're alive!

Colleen, Great WO! You've had a lot of servicemen lately!! Take care of yourself - no more sickness!:)

-------
Lunch was nice. 3 other Catheites ended up being there - one that lives about 20 min. from me!

Will do some cardio tonight while Mike does his lifting. Not sure what yet....
 
Hi Kate.
Great to meet you and you look fab being so close to your due date.
Thanks for welcoming Freya to the luncheon.
No pics yet from Klaudia.
 
Thanks Jennifer - hope you had a nice drive home.

----------
I just finsihed a Kathy Smith pg WO - light day. Hoping for some good cardio and some CS tomorrow.

Katie, How's it going with Mom??
 
Is it bed time yet?

Hello!

Angie - sorry to hear about little Ellie's tooth. I told my hubby about her falling and breaking her tooth. Things just happen so quickly with the little ones! :( I hope that everything will work out with fixing it!

Colleen - glad you're feeling better!

Kate - Glad you enjoyed your lunch! That would be nice to meet other Catheites in person!

Robin - So jealous of the flat screen! :p

So, I made it through the day. I did parts of Butts and Guts - the standing work, minus the hammer punch things and firewalkers, did the floor work and the abs. Tomorrow I'll do the ankle weights part - my back bothers me during that part so I couldn't do it after lifting boxes all day!

Talk to you guys tomorrow!
Nat
 
Enjoy your Sunday

The weekend goes too fast.
Colleen wow what a great w/o y-day.
Nat how are you feeling today?

No w/o for me today but I'm going to try to eat clean today. I'm going to work on my rotation for the next 4 weeks.

Off to church.
 
Natalie, I rarely do B&G in its entirety - I like the premixes much better. Glad movemax went well.

Robin, Hope you have a nice morning. I'm kind of thinking about a rest day today too. And I totally agree - weekends are way too fast! this has been a particularly busy one - I need a weekend from my weekend!:p

Eats are tidy - could be better, could be worse.
Hope everyone is having a good day.
 
Hi Everyone!

Well my workout wiped me out yesterday! I took a nap after lunch, did some errands and I was done. I really hate allergy season because I am so tired all the time. I am hoping for our first frost really soon to wipe the allergens out. From the weather forecasts, it looks like a few more weeks.

Kate, glad you enjoyed lunch yesterday! I hope you can squeeze in some rest time today.
Nat, good job getting through part of B&G. My favorite premix is the leg blast one.
Robin, good luck with your rotation planning. I need to figure out what to do for the next 4 weeks since I finished my Sept. rotation.
 
Hi everyone,

Today is rest day. I was going to do SJP because I didn't get to do it yesterday but Ryan didn't want me to workout 7 days in a row so I guess a rest day it is! It was nice to sleep in.

Nothing really exciting going on here. I'm looking forward to week 2 of my rotation! I love it so far, Katie! You're my hero!

Hanging out today. Watching football. I love football.

Thanks everyone for your thoughts about Ellie. She's doing good today. We're really hopefull that we'll be able to fix it.

OK... time to do budget.

By the way, Robin, if you are even remotely serious about wanting my cats, please let me know. I could send them to you. :p (i'm being serious...)
