Moment of Truth/fall check-in Tuesday 10-4

Lori,

Last night the doorbell rang twice. First was DD friend. Second was our Pastor. Love the guy, but just randomly shows up. Had my chicken and broccoli right in front of me and just starting to dive in when the doorbell rings. DD answers it. He is standing in my kitchen while my chicken I fear will start to have maggots in it soon if I don't eat it and let it sit so long cuz he doesn't stop talking, but how can I eat it when he is talking and then I am talking...with food in my mouth? He just missed me working out. I had just finished that before sitting down to eat. I was doing an ab marathon. See, I don't workout in the am, I always do so much later in the day because I feel stronger then earlier on in the day. So I hate this too when someone just shows up. There are a few mats like that on ebay, but not as nice. Last ones I seen were with Garfield the Cat on it. I am just going to make a tacky note and stick it on the door for next time. LOL! And I hate the phone calls. Just got one this morning that said "You are the winner....blah, blah. Hung up so didn't hear the rest! What a joke! I wish Cathe would tell us we are the winners when we are done working out! That is the only time I feel like I won something! LOL!

Kali,

I use the protein shakes as meal replacement when I am busy and don't have alot of time. I put in a yogurt in my shakes with a banana and peanut butter. Let me tell you, that is a meal in itself. Leaves me full for about 1 1/2 hours.

Charlotte~~
 
IM DONE!:7 :p My arms aren't on fire but they feel weak.All they want to do is fall to my sides...but I need them! How am I going to cope the rest of the day with no arms? I can't feed myself with my feet!:) It was a good workout and I didn't really come to life until SJP was 1/2 over.Thanks goodness that one isn't has hard as some of her others b/c I couldn't go all out.

Charlotte- I hear ya on the working out.My best runs are my evening runs.I can run forever in the night time but in the mornings I am dragging my feet.But I do it in the morning when I can b/c then I have the rest of my day to do whatever.And I am one of those people that if I keep putting it off..it will never get done.
I think people know why I don't answer the phone.Most of my messages say "call me back when you are done working out or whatever your doing" LOL.

I had this really nice cd/dvd holder given to me for my b-day.And there is almost enough room in it to put my Cathe dvds. My SIL was here on Fri night and she said, "whats that in the dvd holder"? I said " oh, thats my new workouts". She started shaking her head (she is one of those people that don't want to talk about working out, only b/c she doesn't and wishes that she did...you know..the people you don't fancy?:) ) She said "Im sorry, I just don't get why you do this" And I said, "well, I don't get why you don't" She just laughed but tit for tat, right?

Kali- I reconfirm that you are mean!:)

I wish someone was doing this crazy rotation with me so you would be in the same situation I am in.I guess we are all having our own form of punishment!:)
Must get in the shower..for tired arms they are doing alot of typing!:)
Lori:)
 
Lori,

Your so funny! I wished we all lived closer together. If would be nice to get together, but we might attract too much attention!!! LOL!

Charlotte~~
 
Glad to see you survived Lori! Only to do it again tomorrow!!!!!! ;)

Well, I got all the clothes out of the attic and the Halloween stuff. We have MORE Halloween stuff than Christmas! Unbelievable. That's my 6 yr. olds doing. He acculumulates new stuff every year!
Now I've got to get all that down to the basement and start going thru the clothes.
One nice thing is a lot of mine will be going to Goodwill because they're tooo BIG !!!!!!

How are you making out Charlotte and everyone else????

Charlotte- We would definitly attract to much attention.People would think that the carnies ran away from the circus.!I even crack myself up sometimes.Last night we were here and I said someting and I started to laugh, DH siad "here you go again, laughing at yourself" He just shakes is head.

Kali- Isn't it nice to give away clothes that are to big? I doubt that will happen to me anymore.If I lost any weight I would still fit into the clothes I own now.

I just finished I chicken sandwich with 1 slice of bread.I have upped my protein intake a nice bit.I think I have had around 57 g of protein today so far.And I think I am going to have salmon for dinner and a salad:9
I also got into the bath with epsom salts, hoping to get some of the acid out of mu muscles:)
Going for a walk now with a friend:)
Lori:)
 
Jane-I hope you are better today

I have just skimmed the thread as I am in a bad mood today. I will hopefully feel better after I do my cardio. I am doing legs today as well and abs. Just been a crazy day. Read my outsource thread...

Hope everyone is well. I don'y want to post much when I am in a negative mood.

Terri
 
Terri,

Sorry you aren't feeling great today. :-( I've had a wild couple of days too and have been a little grumpy.
All day I've been wanting to go to the freezer and eat the peanut butter cup ice cream that's leftover from my daughters birthday and SO FAR I've managed not to, but it's hard when you are home all day.
I just keep telling myself I feel better when I don't eat like that. If I do, I'll feel bloated and sleepy and gross.

Anyway........ Now you can post even though you're in a bad mood, cuz I just did! ;-)

Hope things start looking up for you soon !!!!
The days almost over and tomorrow is another day!!!
 
OMG, it will take me a year to catch up on yesterdays and todays threads! :p

I hope that everyone is feeling okay today. DS had 18 mo check up. He is in the 95% for height. He is so freakin' tall!!! He is already 3 feet. I need to have another baby. Okay, now someone talk me out of it!!!

Yesterday I did GS just like in the rotation, thank you so much Kali!!!! I just finished Imax3. I am completely soaked! I love the feeling!

I need to go and stretch now. I am planning on making tilapia for dinner tonight. I have never cooked tilapia but I got a recipe from allrecipes.com and it got a high rating, so let's see how it turns out!

Hopefully I will have more time to chat tomorrow. I will see you guys then!

Missy
 
Hey girls,

Didn't think I would ever get home today. I had to go by the drugstore to pick up some meds and saw some shampoo on clearance. Well of course I had to look, and it was on sale for 1.48 when regular price is 9.88. Girls I snatched that up like lickity split!:p I can't remember the name of it right now but it looked like good shampoo.

Well today I have to do LG floorwork, and bike for 30 mins. Probably won't get abs in because brother is coming for his weekly tuesday supper. I have some cleaning to fit in there also. Geez!


Lori-it isn't a crazy question. I go to physical therapy for achilles tendonitis that is very stubborn to get rid of.I am walking normal,but just can't push off with my foot or even do the slightest jump. Right now it can't handle any weight. I can't do the simple thing of doing toe raises. Well let me stop, I can complain over this forever. Oh! I have gone through day 2 of eating no junk food. Girl just keep pushing me! How are you doing?


Jane- did you do Imax3? I read through some of the thread but couldn't read everything. I hope you hands are doing better.

Kali- hey girl, how has your day been? I am tuckered out! My foot is doing okay. At PT yesterday they told me that we were not to baby my foot anymore. That's all good, but I wish she could feel my pain when I doing those stupid moves. She wanted me to do a leg press, when I can't even do toe raises without jumping out of my skin. And get this, the doctor asked why they were lowering my med. dosage instead of going higher. They are driving me nuts! But patience has become my middle name. Sorry you ask this huh? I tend to get a little long winded!:p How was your workout? I'm fixing to do my in a few.


Hello,wendy,nancy,charlotte,becky,missy, sorry if I missed anyone.


kim
 
Hey Missy! Sounds like you're little guy is not so little! LOL!
Are you sure you're ready to have another one? ;-) Just make sure before you do!

Way to go Kimmy on NO JUNK day #2!! Good for you! Have fun w/ L&G's. If that's possible. Imax was long. But yes a great w/o. I'm glad you're moving along w/ your foot. What are you making good for DB for supper?

I got all the kids clothes done. Now they're getting freshened up in the washer after being in the attic all summer. Mine are next.
Think I'll head back upstairs and get to it. May as well.

Wendy, how did it go? Like you said how well can these things go??
Hope DH is doing ok.

Jane how are you faring today? Hope your wrists are calming down.

Hang in there Terri. It will all work out for him. :)

Becky! No PB ice cream! Don't do it! It will make you feel better for about 2 seconds and then you will be bloated and feel like crap!!

Hope everyone is having a nice evening.

Okay... I just skimmed a few threads... will catch up after I eat something which I need to ASAP before I keel over!! I did IMAX3 and felt so good after it that I decided to try GS BSS. My wrists and elbows are feeling better this afternoon after my loading doses of prednisone yesterday and today. I didn't have to go down in my weights, I pretty much match Cathe's weight on everything with the exception of a couple (BB biceps I use 20# and those wrist curls I used 5# but didn't do them like Cathe was, my wrists just won't bend like that anymore). Anyway I did have to drop to 8# on the third set of miliary presses. I feel a lot better and caught up, thank goodness!! I did ditch the CM#3 and SM this weekend when I had DD here Saturday evening and Sunday but I'll stick that in somewhere this week.

Thanks for all the support I got from you guys yesterday. I slipped back into the sick role for a time yesterday and had a good pity party and wallowed quite a bit but I kicked myself in the rear today and got back at it. Of course, the prednisone helped a lot too... LOL.

Terri - I did see where you aren't feeling up to par. I haven't read your thread yet but will. Tight a knot and hold on.

I have to go feed the horse and then get something in me!!! IMAX3 and GS BSS has me starving to death!! :)
 
Hey kali,

I just finished LG floorwork and 25 mins. on the bike. The bike was a killer for me today! I had it on this program that went up and down these five hills. I thought it would never end. And I have always been bored on a bike. Gotta get used to it!

Tonight I am fixing db tacos, and I can't stand them. My dh and kids love them. I will probably eat just one. I hate fixing something for supper when I don't like it!


Yes! I completed day two of no junk eating!:7 :7 :+ :)

Hi everyone.

Kali~It went okay today...This is the first time I ever set foot into a creamatory...it was creepy. :eek: The day went smoothly though and the lunch afterwards was YUMMY :9 (SOOO not clean) and the mood was very light and everyone was laughing so that was a good release for all involved. DH is okay I think. He cried pretty bad a couple more times today but all in all he is doing alright.

I have yet to do my work out. I'm just sooo not in the mood. I'm tired and lazy and cranky and well...just yuck! I'm also depressed because my eating has been for sh*t the past couple of days! I have next to no good food in the house yet I have no energy to go shopping for it! x( x( x(
 
Okay, I think I partially caught up on this thread for today. It has been very busy at work, we are getting slammed with minutes so I can't pop in as much.

Wendy - I'm glad today is over for you and DH, it sounds like it was as good a day as this kind can be. I know how you feel about the food/exercise thing. They go hand-in-hand don't they. It seems if I slide on one, the other goes out the window too, wonder why that is?

Terri - I read your thread about your son. I'm so sorry. You know there are some doctor's offices around here that are sending their dictation to India.!!! I just hope the hospital where I work doesn't get any ideas!!:eek: He sounds very qualified, I'm sure he'll land something soon.

Kim - good job on the eating and exercise. You are on a roll!!! BTW - I LOVE tacos!!

Becky - good job on the chin-ups. I haven't tried any of those yet. I hear you on IMAX3, I am always glad when it is over but I like it more now that I don't have to modify. Thank you Sept rotation!! Becky - you may have to take drastic measures and put that tub of ice cream in the sink and start the hot water!!! I'm afraid that would be what I'd have to do, I'm so weak!!:-(

Kali - Good job on IMAX1, I like that w/o. Have fun at the pumpkin patch tomorrow. I had to go to town yesterday and ran by my MIL's. She's been cooking pumpkin and canning it like crazy. She loaded me down with pumpkin!! I see many many pumpkin smoothies in the days ahead. I use splenda and cinnamon and may try a little nutmeg and cloves to make it taste more like a pumpkin pie smoothie. I also have a recipe for a pumpkin cheese pie I make, I actually make it without the crust so it cuts the calories.

I'm so glad you got the job you wanted. When do you start again? I can't find the thread that tells that. The only downside is that it'll cut into your time here.;)

Hello to Missy, Charlotte, Lori, Cleo, Jessica, Shannon, I hope I didn't forget anyone.

I'd better get my kitchen cleaned up, some clothes folded, and get ready for bed.

Talk to ya'll tomorrow!! I am so glad I am on track with the rotation today. It was worth doing the w/o's back to back today. I should be okay doing the weight w/o tomorrow since it hits different parts. I don't anticipate any problems with all this prednisone in me. I hate taking that stuff, but it is fastest things to get the swelling out. I just hate taking steroids but it won't be for long.

TTYL!!
 
Hey Ya'll Beautiful Women,

Terri,

Just wanted to let you know that you are still in my thoughts. Everything will work out for your son too, you'll see. Chin up, here?

Lori,

ellohay irlfriendgay. hatway siay puay ithway ouyay? :p

Kali,

I just wanted to say I think you are my hero. How much weight have you lost so far? I am thinking it is alot from what I remember where you were before. You need to put new pictures up. Me want to see. All I know is that Terri has a hot looking son, so Terri must be smokin hot too. IF SHE WILL EVER POST HER PICTURE!

How is everyone else doing tonight? Sorry, I can't read all the threads. You all are just too chatty for me to keep up with.

Charlotte~~
 
Oh great! DH is ordering pizza now! AAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGHHHHHHH! :eek: x( :eek: I give up...I'm just gonna eat it and tomorrow I will pretend like today just never even existed!!! ;-) Think that'll work??? :7
