Springy 40's, week of 3/18/12

I don't know how you all that w/o at night do it. Last 2 days, I get home at 5, eat, do dishes, feed/clean up yoshi, talk to DH on phone (or like tonight my sister), go through the mail, make my lunch for the next work day, and then before I know it it's 7pm.

Today I wanted to rest, but I was afraid that if I did I would fall into a no-exercise rut - again. It is so easy to not get up and exercise. So, I did get up and b/c I am still a bit sore, I did stretch max and one of medicine ball abs.

Lisa - it is hard for me to get a workout in after work. I rarely get it done.

Hello

Murphy - well done on getting something in. It's better than nothing!!

Lisa - I know what you mean about the end of the day. I couldn't work out at the end of the day. Quite apart from the fact that DH and DD are home and so I haven't got the space.

Roxie - sounds like you need a break!!

Jody - I really like CB (I know you didn't ask me!). It's a really time-effiicient workout. I feel like I get everything done and it's fun as well. You're really packing the workouts in.

Mary - yes, I have a pull-out line attached to the wall, so it's not up all the time. I always dry clothes outside through the spring and summer. Can't bear to use the dryer if the weather's good.

Did AT Leg Express premix with a Stretch Max section after. I really needed it. Feel much better after that. Can't believe another week is nearly over. Where is the time going?!
 
Good Morning,

It is not raining here right now the sun is shining but we still have rain in the forcast. I am hoping DH gets to go work on the house tonite so I can get caught up on workouts.

Lisa-I would really love to get up in the mornings and workout but I am just not able so I have to do my workout at night or not do any. DH understands so after supper I workout then clean up.

Murphy-like Ronne said something is better then nothing.

Ronne-I am afraid if I took a break I wouldn't get started again.
 
quick post, I've been running behind all morning. I slept pretty well, no drugs even! I did wake up at 3am, read for about an hour and actually got back to sleep, no meds, no sleeping supplements. Normally it would be 2.5 hrs before I got back to sleep. I hope this HRT is working, it's only been a week, maybe soon I'll have no awake time in middle of the night. With all the talk of CB I did the scrambled premix today. Actually it fit into my little time slot this morning that's why I did it. :) I better get to work, got that work that I'm not liking.....
 
Lisa, Idk why u think my wo put u to shame, we r all doing the same ones, right? Ha ha, now u will be thinking of baloney sandwich too. Congrats on sleep. I got a bunch last night, I swear it makes me lose er, scale was down for no other apparent reason. Dr. Oz pointed out stress causes us to store fat on tummy. Good sleep opposite of stress.
I wanted to do bootcamp this morning, but decided to do bellydance plan instead. My yin and Yang fighting with each other. Dance vs bootcamp, self discipline vs giving into impulses.
I'm at hairdresser getting foils and cut. I'm back to phone forum. My computer slowed way down after posting yesterday .
Tx for CB feed Ronne, I will definitely work it in again soon.
I agree, Mary does stay chipper. Roxie, good luck with wo today and good job Murphy on making it happen! Rinse in a minute, ill let isolation know if I get in anything other than dance teach tonigjt.
 
Hi everyone! I fell to peer pressure..again! I did AT leg express, Ronne, enabled me this time! And Ronne I agree, where is time going? It is almost April! How did that happen? Murphy, I admire you for being able to get out of your bed and then work out! How do you do that? It takes my body quite a while to wake up to work out. You should be impressed with yourself! Roxie, I think you sent the no sleeping bug here! Or maybe it's the heat? Still in the 80's? Lisa, glad to hear Yoshi is feeling better. And thank you for the kind words! Jody, how'd the hair turn out? I love new color! I have an interview for a new job. Working at a surgeon's office starting IV's for out patient surgery. The college I am at is starting to require us to get our master's in order to stay. We have 2 kids going to college soon, I can't afford to send the 3 of us! Also, I really want to enjoy the last couple years we have with them, not working and doing my homework! I know, I'm also being lazy! Well, I'll see what happens! Have a good night! Mary
 
Good Evening,

Tonite I did KCM's Start Here Cardio I had a headache didn't want anything tough then I did Hip Hop Abs Last Minute Abs and 30mins on the TM so I am all caught up on workouts. Its raining here again today its getting a little ridiculuos we needed it but it can stop now.

Mary-sorry to hear you now have the no sleep bug and sorry to hear about your job hope you get the new one.
 
Hi all

Lisa - well done for staying off the drugs :p!! Is DH back? How was NJ? Are you going to go with him next time?

Mary - I'm probably doing yoga today as I've got sore hamstrings and a slightly pulled butt muscle! I suspect you won't be joining in! How do you feel about having to look for another job? Does it annoy you that they're changing the requirements for your job?

Jody - so is your hair looking luscious now?

Went into town this morning to get a few bits and pieces. Bought myself a dress in the sale - it's a winter dress so I'm going to be sensible and put it away for next year. It was half price so I couldn't resist it!
Going out to eat with BF tonight. Haven't decided where we're going. Off to friends' house for dinner tomorrow night. So a nice weekend in store.
Have a good one!
 
Good Morning,

Tonite for me is KCM cardio of some kind haven't decided yet or it might be wts. kind of sore in the chest and shoulders.

Ronne-sounds like a nice weekend you have planned.
 
Lisa or anyone else, feel free to give me props on my workout this morning, it kicked my butt! I did SG cardio and then HSTA cardio leg premix for a leg intensive 50+ min of cardio followef by Ba Bi from PS.
: D
Ronne and Mary, yes my hair looks nice, fresh highlights not too blondie and about 4 inches shorter.
Ronne ur weekend does sound fun, congrats on new dress.
I'm at blood center to donate, 20 dollar Publix gift cards, yea! I hope I don't feel so darn tired later.
What's every else doing this weekend?
 
I rested today. My back was killing me yesterday. I don't know what I did, but my back even hurt when I was simply carrying three dishes. I had a hard time sleeping, but more so b/c I had pillows here and there to make sure my spine was not out of alignment - at least not too much. My back does feel better today, but it is still sore. If it is not better by Monday I will look into a chiropractor. I hate them - the sound of cracking and whatnot...

Okay, I must aplogize, I don't remember who was who but: props on the workout, good luck with the interview and glad to hear Yoshi is feeling better. I am sorry if I missed anything. Have a great weekend everyone. Oh, Lisa - when were you in NJ? You escaped? :) Don't tell anyone where the exit is or everyone will leave. BTW, I am a New Jerseyean so I can say that. :)

Murphy
 
Yes I keep forgetting , good luck on job interview, Mary. I think it sounds nice! I hope it works out. Murphy I hope ur back feels better soon, ouch! That sounds not nice but rather miserable.
 
Hi girls! Happy Friday! Today did LICh, premix 5. With no peer pressure! Murphy, hope you feel better, sounds painful. Ronne, sounds like the perfect weekend! We are going out to dinner tonight, while the kids go see the Hunger Games. Got a sitter for little one, he's not ready for that! Roxie, are you guys working on DDs house? Jody, you hair sounds perfect! Lisa, where are you? Thanks for the good wishes. I'm not a job jumper, have been teaching for 10 years. Will give it a go, see what happens! Hope everyone has a great weekend! Mary
 
Hey! I'm here! I'm late! Was out late last night picking up DH from the airport (gosh can't wait until the new car gets here), so just took my time getting going today. I just got done with BM2 double upper PM --only doing abs one time through. As it was my arms was shaking doing the side planks!

Murphy/Ronne, DH is traveling to NJ, he was right by the World trade center, I WOULD go with him but things are crazy busy here right now. Bathroom redo starts in a week, for about 2 weeks (that probably means 3). Then just 2 weeks after that is the wedding. By that time he will probably be onto another acct. He actually enjoyed this trip and we think he will like this job (even though they put him under a different mgr than the one that recruited him --- a previous co-worker 15 yrs ago...that was one of the draws to the job--knowing the mgr). I've been nervous all this week about if we made the right decision, I'm feeling better now.

Mary, we are not job jumpers either! It's scary, but the best I can say is to go with your gut. Your gut doesn't lie. Enjoy dinner! DS22 said he went to HG movie last night, said it was good.

Murphy, hope your back gets better with no chiro! I don't particularly like them either (and my BIL is a chiro). :) Your post sounded like how I feel a lot, I can't remember who said what!

Jody, WTG on that w/o! I'm feel like I've lost a lot of momentum since that illness I had. Lost momentum and gained lbs...grrrrr

Ronne, wtg on the dress find! Maybe you'll have a cool day/night you can still wear it?

Roxie, can I count some of your w/o's for me? Will that help my lbs?

Gotta run, been putting off work I need to do. It's Friday!!!! And my honey is home!!!
 
Good Evening,

I came home from work not feeling very well I think I had to much caffine, my head feels funky and ears feel plugged so I did a mixture of workouts tonite, KCM Start Here Cardio premix and Turbo Jam 20min Cardio Party.

Lisa-I don't know if it will help your lbs but you can count some of my workouts.

Mary-it finally quit raining today so DH and SIL are working on the house for the first time all week.
 
the sidewalk was crowded my friends..beautiful day in south florida 81 and sunny ..I jog walked about 3 and a half miles. I planned on doing boot camp but t k d jog was more efficient..easier to modify intensity too which was good since I'm a little run down from blood donation yesterday.
Murphy, feeling better? Mary, you getting into any trouble this weekend? Lisa, glad ur sweetie is back. You guys are so refreshing, all loving and happy to spend time with the DH. ROXIE ARE YOU BETTER. Today? Do you think u are eating enough and getting enough sleep? Prob no on sleep for sure. Waves to Ronne, have a good weekend all
 
Hi girls! Did TB today. Jody, sounds like the perfect w/o! 70 and cloudy here. People are starting to mow their lawns! I don't want to start doing that all ready! Roxie, how are you? Better? Lisa, you and DH having fun? Murphy, how is your back? We had a nice time last night, I had a couple of mojitos. The movie was long, at least that is my excuse! Kids loved it. Cleaning now, not quite sure what we get into today? Always a surprise! Have a good day! Mary
 
HI everyone, my weekends are going to have to start being modified. Seems DH will be flying out on Sundays at noon, that means leaving the house at 10:30 or so. So we have to make the most of our Saturdays now and the Sunday mornings too. We knew his work would be chaotic in the beginning, hopefully it doesn't stay this way too long and Sunday flying won't be the norm. Seems he may like this job, just not the travel....but the travel was going to be more in his old job too, so why not do it for more money, right? So, today we needed to go get him some clothes for his job so I skipped my w/o. Tomorrow I'll probably get a late start, planning to w/o after he leaves to maximize our time together.

Jody, I wore shorts today! 78 and sunny here, it's going to be a nice week so I'm taking off Wed and borrowing DS's dog and we will go on a hike together.

Roxie, could it have been allergies? Allergy season is in full bloom here. I get sick feeling and sore throat from allergies and I had it Tuesday from outdoors shopping on Monday last week. I must remember to take something for hiking!

Mary, yum, mojitos! DH and I ate lunch out and bad me splurged on a 'Death by Chocolate' brownie/ice cream/hot fudge. I'm never going to lose these 5 lbs this way! I did get a doggie bag for a couple of dinners this week (hard to cook for one). I take have leftover meat and make a salad.
After DH goes to the airport tomorrow I really need to clean some house---I hope to channel you :)
 
Good Afternoon,

This morning I cleaned and vaccumed my bedroom then did KCM Circuit Blast #2 and then I went shopping at Sams. Its a gorgeous day today I really wanted to lay out in the sun but I needed to go shopping instead and its a 45min drive to Sams. I plan on laying out tomarrow its suppose to be 80.

Jody-I think its a combination of not enough sleep, trying to wear contacts that aren't right and not eating enough.

Lisa-I didn't take my allergy pill yesterday so I am sure that had something to do with it too.
