!i!i!i!i!iClean & Tidy NYE!i!i!i!i!i

good morning everyone

angie, have a good day!

robin and katie, hope you both feel better.

kate, how is your ell8iptical?

klaudia, hope the visit went okay.

hi colleen, hi anne

well yesterday was clean but not tidy - no bad food, but too much, and i feel it today. so my goal today is portion control! i had an awsome run this am - 5.5 miles. dr said i could run every other day for 2 more weeks, then i am good to go! i think my problem yesterday was stress at work. today is a home day, though, and i am thrilled. i love time with the boys like this. not sure what we will do as the high is 18 today:(

i'll bbl for motivation! also plan to do some upper body weights hopefully
 
Hi Angie, have fun today with the family!!

Morris, ^5 on the run, I know that's just the *drug* you needed to get the eating back on track. Have a good "home" day -- that's what we call it in our house too!

Yesterday's eats were not too bad, but a bit carb heavy. When it hurts like hell to swallow, it's hard to make yourself eat a salad, kwim? But I am feeling significantly better today -- well enough to workout!! I did LIC cardio premix and Pure Strength Back and Bis.

We are going to a party tonight that will likely have lots of decadent food and drink. I almost never drink, but I may have a few beers tonight. And realistically, I will indulge in the food. But I will be 100% squeaky clean until I go to the party.

Have a great day all!
 
Hi, everybody, Happy New Year!

Angie, the play sounds fun.

Morris, enjoy your home day.

Katie, I'm glad you're feeling better, have fun at the party tonight.

Kate, how's the eli?

Klaudia, I hope the visit with Darrin's dad went okay. Did you get all the snow we did?

Robin, are you feeling better?

Colleen, do you have to work today?

I'm at work, but we will probably close early, like 3 or so. No am work out for me today, but I'll have plenty of time when I get home. DH is off today, so he's taking my car in for a new windshield. It's all cracked and gross and really needs to be replaced. We're having a nice dinner tonight. I probably shouldn't even tell you since this is the clean and tidy check-in, but I will! We're having honeybaked ham and tater tot casserole. And a veggie, probably broccoli. Tater tot casserole is none too tidy, but oh my goodness is it delicious. How can you go wrong with tater tots, cream of mushroom soup, butter, sour cream, and cheddar cheese? It's a very rare treat, though, trust me! I can't remember the last time I made it.

Okay, I'll check back later. After work I'm going to do 4DS LIS, but no core work since I did LIC abs yesterday. That's my favorite 4DS work out, so I saved it for the holiday.

Have a great day Angie!

Morris, Portion-control is the hardets thing for me - even with clean food! Have fun withthe boys today. My girls ate breakfast as fast as they could and they're out playing in the snow right now! BR! Too cold for me!

Klaudia, Is Darrin plowing this morn?

Katie, Do you have a babysitter for Collin? Do you get a date night?! Have funtonight! And yes, salad and sore thorats don't mix!

Happy New Year ladies.

Thanks I feeling a little better.
Katie Enjoy your party tonight
Anne tater tot casserole sounds so good. How many cans of soup?
Morris wow it's cold where you live. Y-day it was so warm in NC that people were walking around in shorts.:rolleyes:
Angie enjoy your day.

Since someof you were talking about circuits I've decided to do HST today. I've only done this w/o once so maybe I'll go up with some of the weights.

My DS brought Apple Cidar Vinegar, instead of apple cidar so I'm going to research to see what I can do with the whole gallon.

pre w/o cheese
b-oatmeal
l-chicken and veggies

Dinner will be with family. I plan to be home by 1 a.m. No drinking tonight after 12 ;)
 
Good job on the pounds, Kate! What kind of homemade mac do you make for the family?

Robin, it's one can of soup to 2 lbs of tater tots. I'll post the recipe when I get home. It's short and easy, but I don't remember all the amounts.

anne
 
robin, you motivate ME w/ your sig line! i honestly think about that duringtheday!
hope you have a good time tonight! kids coming? im so glad for you to have family nearby now.
hst! leg presses! ooooowwww!!!! hsc is my fave hs wo.
 
anne, its super easy and relatively okay, clean-wise. i use lf cheese and my "white sauce" is eggs and skim milk. will post latr...
 
Hi Everyone!

My plans are up in the air for New Years since DH is trying to make a deal on a car for me. If we don't get the car tonight, I am going to pick up some fish for dinner. Otherwise I don't know.

Angie, happy new year!
Katie, glad you are feeling better. I always eat a lot of carbs when I am sick.
Morris, enjoy your home day with the boys.
Anne, I am working today but I hope to leave by 3.
Kate, ^5 on the weight loss. Let us know how your first cardio coach is.
Robin, glad you are feeling better. I have no idea what you can do with a gallon of Apple Cider Vinegar. I would probably just return it.

w/o was Imax 2
b: oatmeal w/ almonds
s: banana
l: ?
s: clementime, chopped veggies
d: hopefully tuna
 
colleen, getting the bmw????!!!!!

robin, i have some recipes that use a tablespoon or 2 of acv, but it would take me a lifetime to go thru a gallon of it!
 
I am dying to know which car Colleen is getting!! A friend of mine just bought a 2009 Honda Accord and it is sharp looking! Not sure what she pd for it.... I'm not sure I could ever bring myself to buy a BRAND NEW car -- the one I drive now was about 10 months old when I bought it and we saved about 10K from sticker price by buying a gently used vehicle. I hate paying full price for ANYTHING.

Kate, MIL might come get Collin for the night, but if she doesn't, we will take him with us. We are going to SIL and BIL's house, about five doors down, and he can easily go upstairs and go to bed if he wants to. BIL is a police officer, so most of the guests will be his cop buddies, and they are NOT a rowdy bunch and they all love Collin. But I don't allow him to be around a bunch of rowdy drunk people....

Off to the store, then home to cook for tonight's party -- taco dip, bacon wrapped sausages, chocoalate chip cheeseball, and carrot cake cupcakes!:p
 
katie, wow, that is a lot of cooking - glad you are on the mend!

kate, yeah on the weight loss!! that is motivating for me today. enjoy the cc - not sure i am tech savy enough to down load then play a workout,lol.

robin, glad you are feeling better too.

colleen, hope you get the car you want.

anne, dh would love your casserole.

eats awsome so far (of course it is only 10am). i think we will be stir crazy inside all day, so we may brave the cold or go to walmart to see the fish:) i'll bbl
 
Morning!

Well, the visit went well, thank goodness. FIL and his girlfriend played board games with the girls and looked at picutres. Nothing like having your FIL see your progress pics as they scroll on the computer:0 Only awkward moment was when FIL was asking about his granddaughter-Darrin's niece. He's only seen her once or twice-both SIL don't talk to him-for really stupid reasons. I hate for poor Darrin to be stuck in the middle. Ah, family drama.

Today's workout is legs. I'm thinking either 4DS or S&H. Will do it when Nevena naps. Danica is going to my MIL's for a few days so it'll only be the two little ones at home tonight. We might take them up to the corner restaurant for a NYE kid's party. A bunch of our friends are having a hall party, but Darrin's not feeling up for it and I have anxiety thinking about what to wear (I have major issues with this) so I think we're going to skip it.

Angie, have a great day!

Morris, great job-again:) It's really cold here, too, with blowing snow and super freezing temps. The thought of going out gives me the shivers!

Katie, have a great time at your party! Enjoy the treats-you've earned them:)

Anne, I love tater tot casserole. I used to make it for Darrin in college-cheap eats:) We added ground beef and used cream of celery soup. You can make it relatively clean with low fat ingredients and ground turkey, too.

Kate, way to go on the weight loss! Darrin has been gone since midnight. Hopefully he'll be home by noon. Homemade mac and cheese-yummo!

Robin, if I told Darrin about your weather, he'd be packing our bags. He's so ready to move.

Colleen, hope you get the car-a great way to end the new year!

b-kix
everything else is tbd

bbl...
 
hey i'd finish HSTraining. I did not do HSC I'll save that one until for after the new years. I guess I'm not 100% b/c I felt very light headed doing some of the cardio.

Klaudia FD is part of the holidays. I have that same problem, just going to church:rolleyes:. I alway feel like I'm underdressed or overdressed.

Morris do you have pet fish?

Katie that is good Collin should not be around the rowdy drunk people. BTW where will the rowdy drunk people be partying;)

Kate yes the kids have to come my family will be lookin for them.

klaudia, darrin home yet?
if you went to a party in a paper bad you'd still look better than all of em!
glad fil went well.

robin, hst is ambitious - take it easy!:)
any treats planned for your party?

i did the s of sjp. gotta do the j & p still!
eatsare 100% on track!
lunch after nursemax!
 
Yay! My office closed at 2:30 today. I'm heading home to do 4DS LIS. I may do the leg work out this afternoon, too, I'll just see how I feel. If I do get it done, then all I'll have to do tomorrow is abs. But, the leg work out is pretty short, so I don't think I'd mind doing it tomorrow. Of course, my calves will be toast by then, so maybe I should just get it done! We'll see...

bbl

anne
 
anne, yeah on leaving early - have fun with the workout!

kate, i love the hi lo part of sjp, and i ususlaly do not like hi lo.

squeaky clean day here, but help, i am not feeling full! i just finished ctx all upper premix. i ate a little more lentils and some carrots and some yougart, kind of a mini meal as my lunch was so small. i will wait 30 min or so and then may have to eat something like a pb sandwich. i want a huge boca burger:(

on a different note, anyone have any books or suggestions for potty training?
