Good Afternoon Ladies!

Today I did PUB and TaeBo Boot Camp1.

Laura--Let me know if you are planning on going to the 24hr fitness class tomorrow. I have had a lot of trouble with my internet connection, so don't know if I can register on line. Hope you are going on Sat. Let me know.

Lara--Good luck with the house hunting.

Carolyn--Congrats on ds's graduation and ds16 b-day!

Heather--You new RT pj's sound cute! E-mail me with Sat. restaurant directions.

Hi to everyone else!
Have a great day!
Gin

:)
 
Gin--Sorry I haven't been online. Today is DS's b-day and we've been busy all weekend. Yes, I plan to be at class in tomorrow.
 
Good Morning,

Well, we never got around to finishing our deck. My FIL is extremely ill and my DH was at their house all weekend. Didn't get much accompolished at all this weekend.

Heather - Have fun with your Texas GTG. Who else is going to be there besides Gin and Laura?

Randi - Glad you enjoyed your cruise! Where did you sail to ?

Gin - Sounds like you had a great workout. Have fun this weekend!

Not sure which workout to do today.

Hello to everyone else:D
 
Hello.

No workout today. I did 4DS LIS/HIS cardio, B&G, and a 2 mile walk with my dog yesterday. Tomorrow is busy, but I am hoping to fit in something.

Heather...I hope you all have a great get-together this weekend! Maybe someday I could join you all since that is the closest state to me of anyone checking in!

Gin...How was your class? I am hoping to do PUB sometime this week.

Laura...I hope DS had a great birthday!

Carolyn...I hope your FIL is doing better.

Randi...Glad to see you back. It is always hard getting back to normal after vacation. I like your pics! You are wearing a cute bathing suit!!

Hello to anyone else. Time for bed!
 
good morning!!
I missed ya'll! It was a 5 day cruise we went to Cabo and Ensanada Mexica 3 days we were at sea. It's not easy coming back and not be spoiled like I was on the ship!
I got my bathing suit from Victorias secret on SALE for like 35 dollars.
The next 4 weeks i'm going to be doing more endurance workouts to change things up.
Sun: Muscle Endurance upper body and abs, Kick Max no warm up combos only
Mon: KP&C
Tues: Gym Style Legs standing only then B&G floor work only
Wed: Push Pull upper body premix 3 times through
Thurs Imax 3
Fri: Drill Max
Talk to ya'll soon
Randi
 
Good morning ladies! I started to check in yesterday but got distracted here at work and forgot. :eek: After 2 weeks of AWFUL eating, my DH and I started back on BFL this past Sunday. No more free weeks for me! I had an upper body workout on tap for last night, but I ended up having to mow the lawn, so didn't get to it. In my defense though, mowing my lawn actually requires a LOT of upper body strength. Only parts of our 2 1/2 acres are actually graded, the rest is so rough, mowing it is like riding a bunking bronco. I have to really hold on and turning takes a lot of arm strength. So in the end, I count it as an upper body workout. ;) Tonight, I'll work legs. Not sure which workout yet though.

Heather - Yeah for new PJ's! I need to start looking for some too. None of my current PJ's are worthy of being seen in public!

Gin/Laura - How did the fitness class go? :)

Randi - Love the pictures!!! I'm so jealous. :) It is really hard coming back to reality from a vacation like that. :( Awesome price on that cute bikini by the way!

Carolyn - Sorry about your FIL. Hope he feels better. Do you plan to work on the deck this weekend?

Hi Lara, Robin, Tess, Vicki, Michelle, and anyone else I've missed!

ETA

Just read Heather's post on the OD forum. (((HUGS))) You are doing GREAT Heather!!! And we are all here for you if you ever feel down. :) Whenever I'm do not feel like working out or I'm feeling down about things, I think about you and all you have pushed through and accomplished and it's very inspiring! You better be at that RT! ;)
 
Hi PYGFOers!

Today I ran and then did 4ds Cardio Power (KB/BC).
I just accepted a new job for the next school year and am so excited about it. I will be working as a Kindergarten asst. at a private school. I have been teaching pre-school for the past 16 years at my church pre-school so it will be tough to leave but felt that it was time.

Randi--Glad that you have a great time on your vacation!

Carolyn--How is your FIL? We are hoping that Jean and Pennie will also be able to make the TX GTG on Sat.

Lara--I missed the step class with Laura on Monday. Like a complete numbskull, I got lost getting there and missed it. I'm going to try again with tomorrow's kickbox class there.

Liann--Sounds as if mowing your 2 1/2 acres would be quite a workout in itself!:p

Gin:)
 
Hello.

Today was my long work day. When I got home it was time for American Idol, so no workout. Yesterday was a 50 minute walk with my dog. I hope to do something hard tomorrow! I won't have too much time b/c we have to go to a Park dedication, but hopefully I will still have time.

Gin...I am sorry you missed the step class! At least you will know where it is now. I hope the KB class is good! Congratulations on your new position. I am sure it is hard to leave your current job. I bet you will love Kindergarten though. My mom has taught K for about 40 years. I always love meeting her kids. You will be great!

Hello Liann, Randi, and anyone else that checks in!! Hope you all are doing well.
 
PYGFO Sisters:

I have been wide awake since 2:00 a.m. and need to hopefully get a little more sleep before my morning workout. I am posting a quick message first to let y’all know how much I appreciate this check-in.

Liann, thank you more than words can say for your support and encouragement. I am looking forward to giving you a hug in July.

Gin, I need to call or e-mail you this week with directions. Have you heard from Laura or Jean? Pennie told me that she would decide today or tomorrow.

Laura, I hope you can join us Saturday. I would love to see you again before you return to Africa.

Carolyn, it is good to see you again.

Randi, welcome home. I am glad you enjoyed your cruise.

Lara, I would love to see you again. We will plan a big get-together someday.

Hugs to everyone who checks in today. I am wrapping up my 4-Day Split rotation and planning to start a new rotation Sunday morning.

Blessings,
Heather B.

Hi Ladies,

Sorry I haven't been around much. Lots going on. I've only worked out once so far this week. I'm feeling a little blah!

School was officially over yesterday for my kids!!! I need to get through the graduation and 2 parties before I can relax and get back on a workout routine.

My FIL is not doing well at all. He had colon cancer 10 or so years ago and it seems that anything and everything that can go wrong has with him. He has been battling a bone infection in his lower back/pelvic region since before Easter. Spent last week in the hospital and they sent him home last Friday. They inserted a drainage tube in his back. Surgery is not an option anymore since he has had 3 major colon surgeries already. Apparently the colon is only meant to be "handled" once maybe twice since it is such a delicate organ. No one has actually said this but, my DH and I feel there is not much more they can do for him so they sent him home.

Heather - I'm sorry for what you have been going through emotionally. I hope your spirit lifts and you will be ready for Cathe and all of us crazy people in July:p

Gin - Congratulation on your new job! Is the kindergarten an all day program or half day?

Randi - Welcome back from your cruise! Hope you had a blast.

Lara - What did you think of the American Idol winner? I was glad to see David Cook win., I feel he is more marketable than David Archuletta.

Hi to Liann and Laura and anyone else that stops by.

BBL,
 
Good Morning PYGFOers!

Today I met Laura for the Kickbox class at the gym that she goes. It was great to see her!! And the class was alot of fun and I was sweaty at the end!!:) :) Thank you Laura, for letting me crash your workout!:) I came home to work upper body with BM1.

Lara--Your mother has taught K for 40 years??? That is incredible! She will be such a wonderful grandmother to your sweetie pie!! Are you still feeling good? Hope so. It's getting close.:)

Heather--Hope you are able to rest some today. So sorry you had trouble sleeping last night. My ds has been to the cafe you mentioned during college days and also said it was good!:9 I'm planning on Saturday.:)

Carolyn--So sorry about your FIL. ((((HUGS)))) Keep us posted.
The Kindergarten is full day. This will be new to me (to work 8-4). I am used to getting off earlier.

Gin:)
 
Hey ladies!
Did a little different workout then my rotation. I did Imax 3 blast only then 4ds HIS then Core max #1.
Thanks, it's good to be back home but i want to go back!!
Have a great day ladies:)
Randi
 
Hello.

I got home a little early today from work b/c a few of my kiddos were on a field trip.  I did 4DS KB/BC/HIS cardio and GS BSB.  We had to go to a park dedication this evening.  DH and I were going to go out and eat afterward, but I really wasn't that hungry.  I came home and ate toast instead.  I haven't really been hungry for the past 2 weeks.  Even though I don't have much of a belly yet, I think I am getting uncomfortable if I eat a "normal" sized meal. It is just strange b/c I am always hungry!

Heather...I hope you were able to get some more sleep!  I agree, I appreciate this check-in also!!  I always enjoy reading your posts.

Carolyn...I am sorry about your FIL.  I hope he is not in too much pain.  YES, I am so excited that David Cook won!!!!  He was my favorite from the beginning.  Of course, I always like the rockers, but he was especially good!!  I think he will do very well.  I am sure Archuletta will do well, too.

Gin...I am glad you enjoyed your kickbox class with Laura.  Was that the first time you and Laura had seen each other since the RT?  My mom is actually retiring this year.  I am sure her first grandchild had nothing to do with it ;-) My mom is a wonderful teacher and will be missed in our community.  There is a retirement party for her in about a week and a half. 

Randi...Sounds like a great workout! 

I am so glad it is Friday tomorrow (and a 3-day weekend)!!!  Does anyone have plans for the weekend?
 
Lara--Yes, it was the first time Gin and I have seen each other since the RT, even though we've been in the same city most of that time!

I was so glad that Gin enjoyed the class. You know, I'm so nervous recommending anything but Cathe. But the instructor, while not nearly as personable as Cathe, is very high energy, which makes the class fun.

Today is supposed to be a legs workout. I'm trying to get psyched up. It's been a busy week with late evenings every night and lots of appointments for DS during the day, so I'm feeling more like laying around the house than going for a leg burn. x( Guess that's why we're here for each other.

Gin and Heather--I've contacted a babysitter but haven't heard back from her. But I'm hoping that I'll be able to be there tomorrow for sure. Gin, I'll send you an email and let you know.

Waves to Tess, Liann, Randi, Carolyn, Vicki, Robin, Michelle and anyone else who reads.

:)
 
OK. I did go work out. Totally toasted my legs and feeling kind of rubbery right now! }(

I've worked out the logistics and am ON for the TX RT reunion tomorrow. Yee haw!

Waves and hugs to all. I thought about you all as I walked in for my workout that I didn't want to do. You inspire me. ;-)
 
PYGFO Sisters:

I just talked to Gin, and she is almost halfway here with Jean and Laura. Yippee! :7 We are planning to enjoy blueberry buttermilk pancakes :9 for brunch at my favorite cafe then take a fun trip to the zoo to hopefully walk off the calories! ;-)

We will be thinking of y’all today! :* I am wearing my PYGFO tee shirt in honor of our group! :)

Blessings,
Heather B.

Hello.

I hope all of the TX roadtrippers had a fabulous day!! I wish I could have eaten those blueberry pancakes with you:9 Please let us know about your fun day!!
Today was LoMax plus blasts again at the end and GS CT. DH and I went to eat at one of my favorite places that only serves local/organic food. It was so good!! We are about to watch Atonement and hopefully get to bed semi-early. We have new college neighbors that decided to be very loud until about 3 am. We didn't get very much sleep!
I hope all of you PYGFOers are having a great Memorial Day weekend so far!!
