Good morning all!

Yeah!!! I get to start the thread because I finally have ONE virus free computer!! Woohoo! It almost seems too good to be true. But, oh yes, it is.

Michelle: thanks for the MS comment! It started my day with a smile:D

Lara: Hope everything will be okay with your BF. Sending out well wishes to you.

Tess: I am actually planning to go see Sicko again with my DH because he just doesn't get what I am trying to explain to him about it and he needs to see it before I have to beat him! x(

Belinda: Hope your DD is okay. Let us know how she is doing!

Liann: please take care of your back. I know how much that stinks, especially when you have to stop working out. It will be worth taking care of when the pain stops and life gets normal again. Hope you feel better soon!

Kim: Hope your fun continues today!

So, yesterday I started class again ( Cardio/Sculpt) after having a week off. I teach three classes on Tuesdays as one is a "dancer only" class that they are required to take as part of the summer dance program at the Conservatory where I teach. Holy smokes... now I will never admit this in a court of law but I thought I was going to die last night. I do my classes full out because there is really no other way to teach the class and let me tell you, by the end of the summer I am either going to drop or have the best bod of my life ( hopefully it's choice B!!) In the fall I go back to teaching only one class per day. At least I only teach three days per week for the summer, but wooo, this ol' lady is gonna be pooped!!

This morning I am meeting a friend for a walk and then home for SB abs. We are going to a big event today that my boys band is playing. It should be good. A pretty big radio station is sponsoring it and the boys are the only band playing so it's great exposure. They expect at least 5 thousand people. Two of the boys will be singing the National Anthem before the fireworks tonight. They harmonize that song so beautifully. I will video tape it and try to put it on the computer... So, an exciting day for us.

Well, hope you all enjoy your holiday!!
 
Happy 4th Ladies:)
Vicki Hope you have a lot of fun tonight!

Belinda and Lara sending you lots of hugs((((hugs)))) Hope everything with your loved ones is going to be ok!

Good Morning and Happy 4th RTers!

Toda I ran 3 miles and then did S&H Legs and Shoulders and then tacked on S&H Biceps and abs. Thinking about doing yoga later. Don't know yet.:p

Tess--Thanks for the movie suggestion. I just rented Dreamgirls form Netflix.

Vicki--Sorry about your computer problems. That is so exciting for your boys to be playing at the big event tonight. And i would love to hear the National Anthem, if you can record it.

Lara--Hope your DF is better soon!

Belinda--How is you DD?

Liann--Take care of yourself!

Hi Randi!

Hi ladies,

I am still not sure what rotation I will follow!! I found Cathe's Cardio Blast rotation( I posted that one on the OF) I think I will follow that one! Cardio is good to burn fat?? Right???

Randi are you doing the July 07 rotation ???
I did that one last night!

Liann take care of your back! Hope it gets better soon!

Lara how is your BF doing? Prayers are still with you!

Vicki I would like to lose 10-13 more pounds until the RT! Do you think I should go mostly Cardio or weights! I posted a question on the OF and ask Cathe, but didn't get much responds! Or should I stick with July 07 rotation! I am so confused!:+ :+ Have lots of fun tonight!!

Gin great job on your workout! Are you doing the July rotaton?!!

Happy 4th of July!

It's my one-week till departure day. Wow.

I've been working out but not posting much. Still reading and trying to keep up with you gals, though. Actually, last night I was all ready to post and the internet kicked off.x(

Let me list my workouts since I last posted. Last I wrote I was having serious DOMS from PLB and Kick Max. So Saturday I went light and did Core Max and Stretch Max. My 4 yo DS did Core Max with me. He was hilarious. He kept saying "This is really hard, Mom." I thought, "yeah, and you're not even doing it the right way to make it really hard!" He'd work along for a while and then say, "I need a longer break than that!" I cracked myself up at that point because I quoted Cathe at him: "If you need a longer break, take it, and join us when you're ready!" LOL. ;-)

All my kids love my "exercise ladies," as they call them.

Then Sun was Step Blast. Mon was a rest day. Yesterday was MIS (wow that is tough!), and today was Low Max (an all time fave!)

Eating today was VERY unclean but yummy, and in general I feel pretty good about how I'm eating and the amount of exercise I'm able to do considering my stress level. In one week I leave my house for 6 months. That's enough to make anyone head straight for the M&Ms. Fortunately, when I do, it's in small amounts! :)

Belinda and Lara--hope your loved ones heal quickly

Liann--Hope YOU heal quickly

Tess and Randi--I just wanted to say that from the picture(s) I've seen of you two, you are both just beautiful ladies.

I'm sure there are many more beautiful ones of you out there, I just haven't gotten to see everyone's pictures yet!!

My current dilemna for my Cathe roadtrip picture. Should I send a picture of what I used to look like and what I hope to look like again and have you all be disappointed when you meet me or send a picture at my worst and have you think I look FANTASTIC in comparison when you actually meet me...HMMMM what to do?

Anyway a fantastic workout for the forth of July. My gym had bodyflex and extra long step and kickbox classes this morning and I took them. It is so fun to go to the gym on a holiday because everyone there really wants to work out and it is a blast. My husband road in a MS 150 training bike race for 50 miles today so I was super proud of him.

My eating was also not bad...well until the barbecue and then the deviled eggs did me in. I probably had 3 or 4 of those little suckers. Did I mention the crackers...had several crackers with this lite spread. At my request my friend did not have chips of any kind available as she knows I can't resist. I did resist the cake and didn't have any potato salad after the deviled eggs.

Hope you guys all had a GREAT HOLIDAY. Back to the grind stone on THURSDAY!!!
