Strength in Numbers

Pam Oh poor Jackson, I hope he starts eating and gaining weights so maybe he will have energy to play. Great job on D25! Oh those 1/2 turn jumps are a burner.

Cheryl Great job on P30 UB plus SB Bonus abs 2! Do you mostly play slots or a specific game when you go to the casino?

This morning I did a heavy upper body weights and some core work. I made it through the week and am so looking forward to having the weekend to rest up a little.

Have a great day!
 
Cheryl I got him the kitten milk and he drank just a tiny bit of it, so I have been mixing it with the food and feeding it to him with a syringe. I’m hoping he’ll start eating on his own again soon. It’s funny because he always ends up with food all over his face and the other kittens lick it off. Great job on P30 UB and SB BA! Abs sure do let you know when you haven’t been keeping up with them! Sorry it wasn’t your day at the casino!

This morning was Cardio Kicks, always such a fun one. MMA Fusion was on the calendar, but I don’t care for the MMA workouts. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Julie We only play the slots. I give myself a limit of $20 and when it is gone I am done. I would probably need more than that if I was going to play any table games. Good job on your heavy upper body weights and core work. Enjoy your weekend and rest up.

Pam Hopefully he will start eating soon. It has been a while that he has been dealing with this. That is too funny about the other kittens wanting to lick it off his face. Great work on Cardio Kicks, that is a fun one.

This morning was X10 Hi/Low and P30 Yoga. Yoga is another thing that I have been sluffing off on :rolleyes: and I really need to get more flexibility. After that I got all the housework done. It feels good to get it all done but my back sure is sore now. Time to take it easy.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Cheryl Great jo bon X10 Hi/Lo and P30 yoga! I am so inflexible and so bad about not stretching or doing yoga too. Great job getting the housework done and I hope you rested your back well.

Jackson was really struggling last night and unfortunately didn’t make it . I was so hopeful but whatever was going on with him that tiny body just couldn’t fight off. It was a very sad way to start the day. I did do D27 bis, tris and shoulders. It was hard and took my mind off it for awhile, but now I’m having a hard time getting motivated to do anything. In happier news, Belle had a meet and greet last night and they will be taking her home on Sunday Have a great day.

Pam
 
Good morning ladies! This morning was Athletic step and no equipment abs. I had forgotten how much I like Athletic Step. Now I’m trying to figure out what I’m going to do with myself today. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Pam Great job on CK! That is a fun one. Of all the MMAs I like the fusion one the best but only because of the turtle spins. I am so sorry about Jackson. It is so hard when they are so young. Great job on getting D27 in and it helping you get your mind off the sadness for a little while! That is good news about Belle! Great job on AS!

Cheryl Great job on X10 Hi/Low and P30 Yoga! Yoga and mobility is so hard to work in some times but it can be so beneficial. I like your strategy for the casino so you can have fun and not spend too much.

Friday I did a heavy lower body weight workout and then worked on my backbends and forearm stand. Then I did some chores and took Cam to the vet to get bloodwork to make sure his meds are on point. After that I went to Costco which is always feels like a mini workout. Saturday I did some yoga and mobility work and a hike in Lake Tahoe and then some cleaning. Sunday was my lazy day. This morning I did a heavy lower body weight workout and some more work on my forearm stand. I feel like I am make some progress but still have a lot to go.

Have a great day!
 
Julie Great job on your heavy lower body workout and your backbend and forearm stand work!How is everythi g going with Cam? Is he still doing well on the reduced med dosage? Costco is definitely a trip that you have to be in the right mood for! Great job on yoga, mobility work, your hike and cleaning! Also on your heavy lower body workout and your work on your forearm stand! I would be happy with any progress!

Yesterday was my rest day and I didn’t do much. DH and I have been working on a 3000 piece puzzle since just before Christmas and we finished it yesterday, so that was fun. Belle also went on her trial and they are pretty excited. They sent me about 5 updates yesterday! Hunter and MacKenzie were also officially adopted. This morning was D28 Chest and Back. I like the M3 Chest and back workouts except for the heavy deadlifts. I’m glad there aren’t a lot of reps though and very happy to have my Versa Grips! Have a great day!

Pam
 
Pam I was so sorry to hear about Jackson. It is hard especially when they are so young. Good job on D27 Bis and Tris and getting your mind off the sadness for a bit. That is great news about Belle. Good job as well on Athletic Step and No Equipment Abs.

Julie Great work on your heavy lower body weight workouts and working on your backbends and forearm stand and your yoga and mobility work and hike in Lake Tahoe. Are the meds working for Cam? I have to go to Costco soon and it does feel like a mini workout.

Pam Wow 3000 pieces that is quite the puzzle. Glad you had fun. That is great that they are so excited about Belle that they sent you 5 updates in 1 day. That is wonderful that Hunter and MacKenzie have been officially adopted. Good work on D28 Chest and Back. I can't do heavy deadlifts anymore. I really have to lighten the weight or not do them at all.

Friday I had an early morning hair appointment so I didn't get a chance to get a workout in. In the afternoon I got the laundry done. Saturday I did P30 Lower Body and the Extended Stretch and in the afternoon we went for a walk because it was a nice sunny day. Sunday I went to the farmers market and then I went to a dragon boat meeting. After that I was lazy for the rest of the day. This morning I did TBGS. Then I got some errands done.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Pam That is fun to do a puzzle, I haven't done a puzzle in years. I am not sure I would have anywhere to put one that the dogs wouldn't knock over. Cam is doing really good. He has only had one seizure in the last two months and it was really mild. His blood work came back good. Great job on D28! Versa Grips are great to use for heavy back work.

Cheryl Great job on P30 LB plus ES and your afternoon walk! How exciting to have a sunny day. Great job on TBGS! Cam is doing really good on his meds. Only 1 really mild seizure in the last two months and his bloodwork came back as good. Hope you can go to Costco when it is less busy.

This morning I did a heavy upper body and core workout and a bike ride on the road to Hana in Maui. I was really tired this morning and it felt like a struggle at times but I made it through. Wish I could take a nap instead of work. :D

Have a great day!
 
Cheryl Great job on P30 LB and ES and your sunny walk! Also on TBGS!

Julie We usually like to have a puzzle going in the winter. Surprisingly the cats mostly leave it alone. Sometimes when we are working on it Squeaky will jump on it though because she wants us to be giving her attention instead. Great job on your heavy upper body and core workout and your bike ride. The road to Hana would be a pretty nice place for a bike ride! I wish you could. Nap instead of working too! I’m so glad to hear that Cam is doing so well on his meds. That is great news!

This morning I dropped the super floofs (we named them Ferris, Sloane and Cameron) off at the vet for their spay/neuters. I am sure they will be adopted quickly. I’m a little worried though because my DH is very obsessed with them . He is in with them all the time and calls them his gingers. Then I did Hiit 30/30 and the abs from ME. I made Squeaky an appointment with a different vet that I really like because she is still not eating a lot and vomited yesterday and today again. He doesn’t have an opening until Friday. We started her back on the anti-nausea meds and will see if we need to give her more fluids before then. It’s so frustrating not knowing what is going on. Cilantro and Peppercorn left yesterday and poor little Lilli and Kiki are so lonely with everyone else gone. I’ll be able to put the floofs in with them after their appointment today so hopefully that will help. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Julie That is great that Cam's meds are helping him and his bloodwork is good. I can go to Costco in the middle of the week which is good but it is still stupid busy there. Great work on your heavy upper body and core workout and bike ride to Hana. Napping is good, anything is better than work.

Pam Will the super floofs become part of your family with your DH being so obsessed with them ;). I remember your picture on FB of them and they are very cute. Good job on Hiit 30/30 and the abs from ME. I hope the new vet can figure out what may be going on with Squeaky, that has been going on for a while now. Poor Lilli and Kiki hopefully they will be adopted soon too.

This morning I did Cardio Slam. Then I got groceries and got some more errands done. I was going to do Stretch Max 2 when I got home but I forgot, oops.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Pam That is great the cats leave the puzzle alone. I could see them wanting to push the pieces off the table. That is super cute about Squeaky wanting attention. I love the names of the super floofs. Uh oh, DH wants to e a foster fail to 3 kittens. Great job on HiiT 30/30 and ME abs! I am so sorry about Squeaky. I can relate to being frustrated with not knowing what is going on and seeing them not being themselves.

Cheryl Great job on CS! Oops on forgetting the stretch. I would probably do the same. If I don't do my workout first thing in the morning, it probably ain't happening.

This morning I did my lower body mobility working on my front splits and also worked on my forearm stand. I also tried a headstand which I hadn't done in over a year and was able to get up easier into and hold a little while away from the wall.

Have a great day!
 
Cheryl DH would probably only want to foster fail 2 of the 3, but I don’t see that happening. He did say yesterday after their surgery that they will go fast. Great job on Cardio Slam! Oops on forgetting to do SM, I know that feeling!

Julie I don’t think we will be foster failing any of the floofs, as tempting as it is! Great job on your lower body mobility work. Wow, I think me trying to do a headstand would be a pretty comical thing. Great job!

This morning was D29 Plyo legs. I really love the plyo leg workouts (except for the 1/2 turn jumps), I don’t know why I never think to do them unless I am doing the entire STS. This is the 3rd or 4th time I’ve done STS and I never noticed before that not all of the workouts have the same crew. Some of them have Cede and Brenda and some have Deazy. Just random thoughts during my workout! Have a great day!

Pam
 
Julie Great job on your lower body mobility work. Good for you in doing a headstand. That is something that I am not able to do.

Pam Good work on D29 Plyo Legs. I have noticed that the workouts have different crew. I have noticed that there are different crew for the workouts. I wonder if it is because it was such a big project that she didn't want anyone burning out so she subbed in different crew at different times.

This morning was X10 Low Impact and Yoga Max. Then I went out to my mom's. She hasn't been doing too well, she doesn't want to eat very much and is very fatigued. I took some things over to her and she has a doctor's appointment next week. Hopefully they will be able to get to the bottom of what is bothering her.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Pam Great job on D29! I think the first STS was such a massive project she had to use whoever was available during that filming session.

Cheryl Great job on X10 plus YM! I'm sorry to hear about your mom not doing well. I hope the doctor can find something to help her out.

This morning I did a heavy upper body workout and some core work. Last night we found out our neighbors are having to put their Rottweiler down. She is only 5 years old but has lymphoma. We went over to say goodbye to her. She used to weigh about 110 pounds but now is closer to 80 because she hasn't been eating. She was still such a sweet happy girl. We used to watch her when they would go on vacation and are going to miss her.

I am so looking forward to the weekend. Have a great one!
 
Julie Great job on your heavy upper body workout and core work. That is sad about your neighbors Rottweiler. She wasn't very old.

Thursday I did PHA and then got all the housework done. Friday I met a friend for a walk\hike and we got to catch up. After that I got the laundry done. Saturday I decided to take as my day off since I am going for another walk tomorrow with my dragon boat team. It was a pretty rainy day here so I was pretty lazy.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Cheryl Great job on PHA, your walk/hike, and all the housework! I hope the rain stayed away for your walk with your dragon boat team.

Friday I did a lower body heavy weight workout and worked on my backbends and forearm stand and then ran some errands. Saturday was some yoga, mobility, and a hike in Lake Tahoe and then cleaning. Sunday was my lazy day. This morning I did a heavy lower body workout and some more forearm stand work. I can't believe how fast the weekend flew by.

Have a great day!
 
Cheryl Great work on X10 LI and YM! Sorry to hear that your mom has not been doing well. Hopefully they will be able to figure out what is going on when she sees the Doctor this week!

Julie Great jo bon your heavy upper body and core workout. That is so sad about your neighbors Rottweiler. Poor thing!

Cheryl Great job on PHA, your housework and your walk/hike.

Julie Great job on our lower body heavy weigh workout, backbends, forearem stand, yoga, mobility, hike, cleaning, heavy lower body, and forearm stand work! That’s a mouthful!

It looks like I forgot to post for a couple of days! Thursday DH and I went for a bike ride because it was a nice day. The problem was that it was really windy! At one point we were riding uphill against the wind and thought we were going to come to a complete standstill! It was very hard and we were very happy when we were done! Friday was D30 bis, tris, and shoulders. I really struggle with the biceps in M3. I’m not sure I’m going to be able to increase my weight for this week. I also took Squeaky to the other vet on Friday. He was happy with everything the other vet had done and said she might have IBS. He said it can be tough to treat so he put her on a triple antibiotic treatment for 2 weeks. While he was checking her mouth though he saw what looked like necrotic tissue. He had the vet tech get a q-tip to swab it to test it and it came out! He said it looked like a piece of bacon that was stuck under her tongue. Now we are thinking that may have been the cause of all of her problems because she was completely back to acting and eating normally as soon as she got home from the vet . How crazy would that be if that was the problem?! Saturday morning was supposed to be CCC but I wasn‘t feeling it so I did the step and power circuits from Body Max. Sunday was my rest day and this morning was D31 Chest and Back. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Julie Good job on your lower body heavy weight workouts, your backbends and forearm stands, your yoga, mobility and hike in Lake Tahoe.

Pam Great work on your bike ride. That would be tough going uphill against the wind. D30 Bis, Tris and Shoulders, the Step and Power Circuits from BM and D31 Chest and Back. I am glad that they found out what was happening with Squeaky but it sure did take a bit of time. I guess she found a piece of bacon on the floor and when she tried to eat it, it got stuck under her tongue?

Sunday morning I went to the farmers market and then met some people for a walk. In the afternoon we met up with our friend and we walked down to the local Starbucks for coffee. This morning I did High Reps. It isn't one of my favorites but it was OK. Then I went to Costco (which wasn't too bad) and then did our regular grocery shopping. I needed to pick up a few things for my mom too so I can take them out there tomorrow.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Pam Oops on not posting, it happens. Great job on your bike ride with DH! It sounds like it was a tough one. Great job on D30! Those smaller muscles like bis and tris wear out so fast. Great job on BM step and power circuits and D31! BM sounds like a better choice over CCC. OMG! I hope the bacon is what was the problem and Squeaky doesn't have IBS or something else.

Cheryl How fun to be able to get out for some walks with friends. Great job on High Reps! High rep workouts in general are not my favorite. I hope your mom's appointment goes well.

This morning I did a heavy upper body and core workout and a bike ride in Maui! I came into the office today instead of Wednesday this week because we are supposed to get snow tomorrow and I didn't want to drive in it.

Have a great day!
