Happy Friday Everyone !!!

Yay for you Wendy and your driving lessons !!! I'm sure you're doing great . :)

Katie- I'm glad you're on your way . Ton's of good wishes for your race. You've worked hard to get where you are. Now just ENJOY it !!!!!!!!!!!!
Happy beach time too. :)

I'm thinking maybe a premix from butts and guts and yoga, but we'll see. I'm enjoying picking my workouts (not doing a rotation) but also it has me so wishy-washy. Wish I just KNEW what I wanted each morning !!!!

Hi to everyone !

Becky
 
katie, enjoy your vacation. one thing i love about vacations is new places to run:eek::eek:

kate, good plan with the wos. sorry you are thinking of stopping at 3 if that makes you sad. maybe have a chat with magie on the pregnancy site?;)

morning becky. so many wos, so little time.

robin, enjoy the weights.

wendy, my dh still gives me a hard time if i drive with him!

i totally slept in. i got so sad and down yday, just a roough afternoon. i feel better this am, and i will TRY to do something at quiet time. maybe a run circuit style with cathe weights?

Hi Everyone!

I have to leave for an interview in a few minutes, then change clothes (since I can't go to work in a suit on casual Friday) and then to work. I also promised a friend I would meet her for lunch so this will be a busy morning. The afternoon will be calm. I didn't work out this morning but I will do weights tonight.

Katie, enjoy your vacation - it is supposed to be nice this weekend.
Kate, sorry you have been so overwhelmed. Do you think it is just a phase and in another month it will be easier?
Nina, I am sorry yesterday afternoon was rough. Hope today is better.
Becky, I miss a rotation too. I can't wait to start on Monday.
Wendy, good luck with the driving lessons. DH is a backstreet driver when I drive and I got my license at 16. Wait until you are confident in your driving before taking your DH and DF.
Robin, how are you doing on your November goals?
Lisa, I am not ready for Thanksgiving. I need to clean it up big time. This cold has kept my portions small but my eats haven't been very clean.
 
Okay! I ended up doing an iCYCLE.......cycle, core and yoga . Is 40 min. cycling, 10 core, 10 stretch. I love that one !!

Good luck at your interview Colleen .
I hope today is a happier day for you Nina . :) :) I'm sending you Friday smiles ! :)

Becky
 
Wendy, That place is beautiful! I could get used to that in a hurry!:D
YAY DOMS! I'm sore all over today too!
I don't mind a 1x/night wake up, which she usually does, but oh how I love sleeping thru! When she does wake up it's just to nurse and BTS she goes.....thank goodness! I usually conk out in the lazyboy holding her and wake up 2 hrs later!:p
Does DH not "practice drive" w/ you?

Robin, Have a good wo!

Becky, That WO sounds nice!

Nina, Sorry for the down day - hope today is better!

Colleen, We'll be anxious to hear abt your interview! Hope it went well!

-
I'm falling apart! My shoulder and knee have a mild, constant ache to them. Went to chiro this AM....hope it helps!
 
:DI'm finished with Meso 2 !!! Active Recovery classical stretch-orama next week.

Becky I'm like you I like scheduled workouts but not necessarily rotations. If that make sense.

Nina sorry about the blues yday and today is a new day. Try to get some endorphines pumping and you will feel much better.

Colleen good luck with the interview and let us know how it goes. So far I'm sticking to my goals for the month and I've lost 1 pound but no inches. Thanks for asking.

Kate falling asleep in the lazy boy will make anything hurt. Hope chiro helps.

I'm working on nov/dec rotation while eating breakfast egg white, oatmeal with apple.
 
Morning!

Back form breakfast with the moms:) Wanted to go to Target but Nevena didn't and I knew what it'd be like if I took her anyway so we came home. Today is total body-a circuit I think. Nothing planned for today-might go to a friend's for a Tastefully Simple party just to hang out, not buy anything.

Katie, you're going to do great! Have fun!

Wendy, I think it would be way harder to learn to drive as an adult. I started driver's training at 15, license at :eek: Not sure if I'm going to let dds do the same. I keep telling my oldest driving is a privilege, not a right. But it's tough here in MI-you have to drive everywhere to get anywhere! Can you go practice in a cemetary? Not too much traffic;) I'm still sore from Wednesday's workout too-yay!


Robin, have a great workout!

Becky, great job on the workout!

Colleen, good luck at the interview!

Kate, how long do you plan to nurse? I was lucky-my girls all slept through by 4 months-even with nursing! And they all sleep like rocks now!:)

Nina, sorry for the rough day. I'm trying to prep myself for the hormone chaos that'll be here when pms hits and hoping to head off a hypo attack. I've been ok for the past few weeks.

Gonna do some online window shopping. ON is having an outerwear sale-up to 50% off!
 
Klaudia good luck with the sales. Tastefully Simple have great granola snacks.
Here in Rocky Mount you have to drive everywhere also. cemetary?:D:D:D LMAO.
 
Robin, I LOVE the new CS series! Can't wait for 2010 to be released!:D Good job w./ Meso2!

Klaudia, One of my neighbors sells TS - never have been tho.
I was perusing the ON sale lat night - Gina needs a peacoat or something similar. Going to have her pick it out after school. THe closest ON to us is 40 min away. I get free shipping @ ON so I always have it shipped.
Not sure how long I'm going to nurse....Gina was about 1.5, Isabel quit shortly after a year. I think Julia will go for a while longer yet.

-
Errands and CS done. I did a CS specifically for shoulder issues. That and the chiro made it looser, thak goodness.
Gotta leave again to pick DDs at school and transport them to dance.
What to have for dinner??????
 
Hey all! I have missed you girls so much. My eating has been so horrible (Pot Belly, Chipotle, Red Robin, Wendy's, Pizza, and the list goes on... and did I mention my mom stocks french onion dip in large quantities?)

So, today I realized I leave 7 weeks from tomorrow for our cruise and I cannot mess around anymore. I did an old firm (transfirmer) this morning and it was about 40 min of just sculpting so it was a good start. I will do another one tomorrow.

I know a few of you saw on fb that Ellie has h1n1 so we are stuck here until Monday night. I am so ready to be home. We were going to go to the movies this afternoon but it didn't work out. I'm doing my best to harness my eating today and it is working so far!

Katie, you are going to rock that run this weekend. Good luck! Can't wait to hear all about it.

Kate, you sound so down. I have missed a lot the past two weeks. What's happening with insanity? Are you really thinking no more babies? Hugs to you!!

Morris, what was up yesterday? Why were you so down? Have you found a social network there? A moms club of some sort? Do you have any friends? Is DH still gone?

Robin, how is your core work going? Oatmeal sounds yummy. Maybe I will have that for an afternoon snack.

Wendy, is there a reason you did not get your license earlier? I think it would be so hard to learn now. You have more fear as you get older. My husband has tried to teach me to drive a manual transmission a million times but I just cant get it! hang in there!

Klaudia, I hear you on not taking whiny kids to target. No fun! Have fun online shopping with ON!

Colleen, good luck at your interview!! Sounds exciting. Where are you going to lunch?

Becky, great WO! I could never function without a rotation. I would just end up not working out!

So, I think I am going to try to schedule doubles for the next 7 weeks. I don't necessarily need to WO 2 times per day but it is better than eating out of boredom! I still have a good 5 lbs to lose so I will need to work on calorie cutting for sure! I will not be disappointed in myself!

OK, off to play play-doh with girls. They are driving me batty today. We are all so sick of being in the house!

BBL!
 
hi angie!! you are so missed! is there one of those paint your own pottery places near you? always a fun activity. also, as far as wos, maybe spliut your cardio in 2 and do 1 bp per day btwn now and then? as for yesterday, i just felt so down. i was also exhausted. today has been better b/c i slept in. then, on robin's good advice, i rocked my wo and feel almost amazing right now:D:D

klaudia, i need to shop so bad. like kate, stores are far away here. i should go online. glad you had breakfast with friends. oh how i'd love to live close to you all!

kate, sorry for the body hurting. hope it continues to improve. i am still missing nursing aidan, but he def wanted to be done at 16 months.

robin, do you like sts same better or not so much 2nd time around?

colleen, good luck on hte job interview.

well, i did over 8 miles of fast running. i stopped every 10 min and did 1 exercise for each ub part. finished with 20 min of core. it was actually a lot of fun! also, both boys napped, so it was easy to do. off to a fall festival with them. not sure what to do for dinner. i am so tired of thinking of stuff:( my dad is coming over to go tothe festival with us. mabe i can talk him into takeout if i tell him his other choice is oatmeal:eek:
 
No workout yet:( I've been really lazy today-reading my book and putzing on the computer. Making some coffee now to get renergized.

Robin, I haven't been to a TS party in years! I used to buy their beer bread:) At least your chances of killing someone in a cemetary are slim! That's where my mom and Darrin learned to drive:)

Kate, I could buy the girls a bunch of the coats at ON! You know they need different ones for different occasions! Glad the shoulder feels better. As for dinner-when you figure it out let me know! I'm tapped out of ideas!

Angie, we miss you! Your eating sounds delicious! I wish I had the money to buy all the stuff I want-boots, cute cardigans, dresses, jeans...:( Doing doubles will definitely bust through any plateaus!

Nina, Wow! What a circuit-you should become a trainer! I've done something similar, but not at that intensity. Take out is the way to go:) Glad to see you're doing stuff with him. I have stories about my sil and fil-she just got engaged a few weeks ago and told him after we all knew and then told him she doesn't want him to walk her down the aisle because he was "mean to mom". And he's not invited to the engagement party. Talk about family drama! Mind you, he's not my favorite person, but come on!

Speaking of engagement parties-my sil sent me an email to save the date and to inform me that she is making the wedding party wear "cheesy holiday sweaters" What?! First-not my style AT ALL and now she wants me to go buy 3 sweaters-for me, Darrin, and Danica-that we're going to wear one time?! It's her engagement party! Why would you want to do that? I can only imagine what's coming for the bachelorette party, shower,and wedding!:eek::eek::eek:
 
Quick drive by--y'all need to kick me out of this check-in, but I have to say

GOOD LUCK

to Katie!

Not that I don't miss all of you, but you go girl! Have fun tomorrow! When it gets painful, just remember all of us are rooting for you!

Hey girls, I kept it together today! Success! I took the girls to the park this afternoon to let them run their crazies out and then we came home and I had some shredded wheat when we got back for a snack. For dinner there is a pot roast in the crock pot so we should be set. The ultimate goal will be to avoid the dessert.

Nina, thanks for the suggestions on the workouts. I wish I had a treadmill to change it up a bit. I really like circuits and I can run short spurts but not for long. I'm so glad you are having a better day!

Anne, every other post from you mentions being kicked out. We haven't done it yet, have we? :D I wouldn't worry about it!

Klaudia, I wish I had money to buy everything I want. The year of 2010 is going to be a hard one for me. It's a year of savings... I am hoping that by lowering my cals and doing doubles that I should lose the last pesky 5#!

I MISS MY HUSBAND LIKE CRAZY!!!!!!!!!
