Hi girls.

I'm feeling chatty today so I figured I'd start us off!:)

I got up at 6am today. I am suckin' down my java and have to eat a bowl of cereal. I intend to get my work out DONE before DS gets up. I have to do KM and LIS and I am SCARED!:p

Hope everyone is doing well!

Hey Susan, what's the count down on vacation now? :+
Oh, and weighted lunges w/a barbell sound dangerous to one's house! LOL As well as quite the balance challenge!:eek:
 
Okay ladies, it's almost 7:30...I'm off to beat myself up...err, I mean...WORK OUT so I'll check in when I'm done!

Buh-Bye!:)
 
Good Morning Gals,

Glad to see you start us off Miss Wendy. I am doing the samething that you are doing and it is yummy! I didn't want to move when the alarm went off.I was just to lazy and when I got up I could feel those walking lunges I did yesterday.

I plan on having my workout done early as well. I am not sure what cardio I will be doing but I want to do GS C&T.I need to get my weight workouts in now b/c when we leave, I will only get cardio in.I am also going to start packing today b/c I have lots of time to do so.I need daytime clothes and some going out stuff.I just may go to the mall and keep up a couple of cute tops (maybe....}( }( )Im starting to get excited.Its been so long since I have been somewhere!

Lori:)
 
Hey Girls!

Didn't check in yesterday. Too busy with DH rubbing oil on me and so forth. LOL!

Wendy,

What is LIS?

Lori,

Your pictures are smokin' girl! I seen someone left a comment that you looked like Cathe. Guess referring to your body. And who would have guessed you were downing all that chocolate fondue!!! LOL! Where did it go????

Well I am going to do 500 walking lunges today, squats and deadlifts along with some ab work.

Charlotte~~
 
Oh Charlotte, you are to funny! I am not sure what the cathe comment meant.Body or face...don't know. Personnally, I could only wish to have a body like that and I don't think I have her face either but everyone see something different when they look at someone.Isn't that weird? You would think we would all see the same thing.
I think your legs are going to be sore! I only did 300 walking lunges yesterday and I can really feel it today.I also like those deadlifts (must be in GS legs) where she does them on the step, you start by your toes and only go up to your knees? That one kills!
Off yo do chest and triceps...I may check in again before cardio!

Lori:)
 
Im done GS C&T and I sort of feel like I need to throw up! Ugh..whats up with that? I never get sick when I am working out and I didn't eat anything different.x(
I think I will sit here for a few minutes and see if it passes before I get on the treadmill.Running and throwing up may not be a good combo;)
Lori:)
 
Lori, where are you going?? On a vacation or something? I must have missed it!

Charlotte, LIS is Low Impact Step.
 
Yep, we are going to Montreal on Thursday and not gonna be back until Tues or Wed. So...you can't diss me while I am gone b/c I may find a computer you know!:)
DH is going for work.They are picking out their winter coats for next year.So, it is more work related, but I don't think picking out clothes is going to be to much work! Our friends who bought the business with us, are going to so we are going to have a day of shopping as well.
I just can't wait to get away.
Lori:)
 
I think thats it for me for now.I did ab work to.I just don't have enough energy for cardio right now.I hope I am not catching DH's cold.
Maybe I will take the dogs out while I am waiting for DD to get home for lunch.
Lori:)
 
Hey Girls!

Okay - this is really starting to make me angry. x( Once again, I didn't get up and get my workout in early. This is SO not like me. But I have a reason - sort of. We took in this dog that a friend found and I don't think he's house trained and so usually I'm working out when DH leaves, but what to do with the dog? So I was going to get up extra early to work out (hahahahahehehehehohohohoho) so that when DH left I would be getting out of the shower and could keep said dog in the bathroom with me. Oh well. So now I'm going to do Imax 2 tonight while DH babysits. I wonder if I'll get my heart rate up to 197 again? Maybe 200??? Always have a goal, I say.

Wendy - we are staying with friends on Tuesday night (yes, Valentine's Day and our 13th anniversary) because they live about 45 minutes closer to the airport and we have to leave their house at 3:30 am on Wednesday!!! We'll be gone from Wednesday to Wednesday. But...our friend is taking his computer and supposedly we have Internet access in the house, so you girls may hear from me!

Charlotte - I hope you have a great HEAVY workout. And Lori - don't throw up on your treadmill b/c it will get all stuck underneath when the belt takes it around. Eeeeeeewwwww!!!

Okay, I have about five seconds. check out my picture trail, the original one (not 3). I have some fitness photos up. I did it, OMG. My heart is beating so fast. I didn't realize how big my butt was. Yucky. That is why my head faces forward, I guess! :) I can't believe that I just posted those. Omgosh, omg omg omg.....

I will be on later, I am out the door right now to spend time with my sis. See ya later!

Missy
 
Ummmm, hello, Missy!?!? Are you CRAZY!!!!!???? You've had 3 children young lady & I must say it...YOU LOOK FABULOUS girlfriend!!! I WISH I looked like you!!!! Hips are not a bad thing my dear...that's what makes a woman a woman!;) }( You are definately a hot mamma so no worries there gal!:)
 
PHEW! Okay, now that I got THAT off my chest....LOL :)

Anywhoooo, I started my work out a little after 7:30 and was done about 9:10 or so....LIS never seemed so hard! LOL After KM was done I started doing LIS on a 6" step even though I wanted to do it on a 4"! LOL Well, after the warm up and first step segment, I felt like I was still cooling down from KM so I bumped it up to 8". What was I thinking!? LOL I have done this work out on 8" before and it is VERY doable but after the butt-whoopin' from KM it seems MUCH harder! }( Well, in the end I got through and here I am...still alive!;-)

Tomorrow is muscle max and a 20 min interval run which I will have to sub for TOTALLY. I guess I'll look at the MM break down and use some appropriate combo of the GS' for it and then for the run I guess I'll do SJP's hi/lo segment.

Susan, what kind of dog is it? Are you keeping it or giving it away? You are renting a house!? YOU GO GIRL! Don't even bother with us, girlfriend! FORGET US! We'll be here when you get back! Have a freakin' BLAST!!!!! :+ :7 :+

Against my better judgement ($ wise), we are probably going on vacation this summer....lookin' into a cruise. We were booked for one in November 05 but I freaked out about $$ so we cancelled it. DH INSISTS on going on vacation this year since we haven't been on one since our honeymoon in 2003. I can't blame him for wanting to go....we are going to do it as inexpensively as possible though.

TOODLES!:)

Well if the other couple is going then let DH and his buddy do the work and you and the other wife go out and PARTY!!!!:+
 
Missy! You do look good! Even for having 3 kids, look at how tiny your waist is! I wish I had a waist like that. I am so short waisted that I barely have one at all. I have never thought about taking pics the way that you just did and the way Wendy always does.Just snap in the mirror! hahaha
But at the same time, I know how you are feeling b/c when I put my pics up, I wanted to take them right back down!I didn't have a clue what I was doing! hahaha

I still haven't finished my workout but I did have a nap
:) DH called and he asked how come I was having a nap and I said...b/c I can!:) Its true.I was lazy, nothing to do and no one home...why not? Now I feel energized and I think I can do my workout justice.

Wendy, I haven't had holidays in 2 yrs and I am DYING to get away.Although it is still winter where we are going I will take it!

My SIL called yesterday and asked if we wanted tickets to see cold play.My God...I love HIM! I think they are the next u2.Anyway..not sure if I want to swing 2 trips this year b/c I am planning for Florida! See how easy it is to get sidetracked!? SO far we have DH's parents, Dh's sister,2 kids and hubby, and 2 other friends with their kids.Oh..and it won't take much convincing to get DH"s uncle and family to go as well.I can't wait!

Lori:)
 
Hey Girls!

Just finished squatting and I need to regroup from it. WHEW! I keep thinking "tree trunks" like Lori mentioned when I squat now. I really want more bulk ladies.

Missy,

Well I just had to check out your big butt! LOL! Your crazy, just like Wendy says. All I see is dedication when I look at you. You can tell who is working hard and who isn't. Your working it and it shows! Gosh, what size is your waist? Might be smaller then mine! Your face has a very elegant victorian look. Did anyone ever tell you that? Your a beauty! I don't have any fancy workout clothes. I just workout in my street clothes.

Well I have to move on to deadlifts and then walking lunges. I am going to improve my walking lunges by moving my chest farther into my knees with each lunge. Must keep my back flat though. Ah, wish me lots of energy please cuz I am feeling sluggish today.

Charlotte~~
 
Missy,

O.k., I just took a picture of my butt and I ain't posting. I don't know if the workouts and the clean eating are doing much in that area. Can't figure out why the heck not. Nothing looks like it hasn't changed there. You think I sit around and eat crap all day long. What gives. Maybe I need a change in workout routines. Maybe I need to run more or something. O.k., now I feel unmotivated. I shouldn't have looked at myself. LOL!

Does anyone have any suggestions?????

Charlotte~~
 
Phew...just got off of the treadmill! I did a 10 mile run (98min) (which I have only done once before) and I am in desperate need of a shower! And I am starving! I will be back in a little while to see what I missed:)
Lori:)
 
Thank you for the compliments, guys. It is so hard to post pictures like that... it feels almost like making yourself vulnerable in a way. it is very encouraging to read your posts! :) Charlotte, I don't think that you have to worry about your butt, honey! Not if yours is the butt in those jeans! I think one thing that is very true, though, is that we are never happy with certain parts of our body no matter how they look to everyone else, no matter how hard anyone tries to convince us otherwise. I think that you guys are a group of amazingly beautiful women, not just outside but where it really counts: inside. I am so happy that I can log on and be encouraged and feel joyful when I read your posts. You guys are so awesome! :7

Lori, are you still feeling queezy? Sounds like you may be getting the flu. Yucky! I dealt with that all week last week. Me, Logan and than Layne all in a row. I am still catching up on laundry. OH, THE JOY! x( x( x( Can you tell me about your treadmill, what kind you have if you like it. Dan and I are getting one with our tax refund and I am looking into what is out there and what is best. I hope that you feel better, you lazy bag of bones!

Wendy, how was the workout? Sounds killer! What is LIS? Is it from the Slim Series? Vacation would be so fun for you guys! You can do something cheap, too. I know that cruises are very expensive. Perhaps you guys could do a Florida vaca. Dan and I spent less than $1000 when we went including hotel (cheap one) and airfare. I love vacations! :D

Susan, I LOVE IM2!!!!!!!!! It is the funnest workout ever! I laugh everytime I do it, it is so great so I am very jealous of you. }( And you got your HR up that high? Phew. I am sweating beads for you! :p and then I am going to take a long nap for you. :p :p :p

Okay, I have to tell you what my sister and I were doing. PICKING UP HER WEDDING RING! My sister is getting married!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so happy for her! They spent all day looking at rings, and then Justin spent the rest of the day looking for his birth certificate so they can get 'er done!!! I am so excited for her! They aren't going to do anything big, just go to the justice of the peace. They figure why waste time? She is absolutely glowing. I have never seen her smile so much and act so giddy! I am so happy for her, really. Okay. Now I am cheesing!

I haven't had sugar in... since I asked you to flog me! :) And I did HSC today. Wooohoooo! I have to find a time to run this week. Oh, and we ate sushi for lunch! I love sushi! The waiter was amazed because my less than 2 year old son was eating edamame from the pods, seaweed salad and miso soup. :) My good little eater! And we saw DH on our way to pick up the ring. I love him so much!!! He is really amazing and I am so lucky to have him.

Well, this is long enough, I think! Your eyes are probably tired by now, so I won't waste another minute but will bid you adieau!

Missy
