I'm here. It was a super busy today and the day just got away from me.
I took a rest day today. I have been really low on energy the last few day and I got my period today. Jean, I completely get the funk thing too. I want to workout, but I'm having the hardest time trying to determine what I want to do. That's why I love rotation. Takes the guess work out of it.
Marie, what a wonderful picture if Breklin with Santa. That is a great Santa too!

Good Morning Ladies!
This morning I did TBTLO and the bonus Leg Drills from lower body blast. That was good combo together.
Yesterday was not a good eating day for me. I raided the freezer and ate a frozen brownie after lunch. Thanks Carolyn for the idea, it was super yummy frozen. Then topped that off with a cupcake after dinner. I defrosted that before I ate it. I actaully started to eat it frozen then my husband gave me a look, so I put in the microwave. The icing melted and it was REALLY good. I hate the first day of my period, I am always so hungry and my cravings go crazy.
have a great day!! BBL

Missy, I fret over every calorie too, but I don't have as strong iron willpower as you. I just stuff my face, knowing waaay better. Carolyn's right though, enjoy the party and don't worry about the calories. I know you'll scorch them. You exercise twice a day, for heaven's sake! Calories don't stand a chance!
Colleen, you too. Don't worry about the brownie and cupcake; you'll torch those cals too. (They sound heavenly.) It's hard to pinpoint what comes over us when the menses hit. It's like we're not ourselves.
Ride looks tough! I was watching Jai and her rippling, bulging arms! She looks like she's struggling a bit, no? To me anyway. I know I'd find spinning really hard.
Carolyn, you're a soul sista, for sure, and not only in shopping! You might find the merchandise in TJM/Marshalls near me picked over and lacking. I swear NH gets better stuff!
When our kids and nieces/nephews were younger, we used to do the same as you on DH's side--each child took turns and opened a present. One at a time, in age order. We were able to prolong the opening of gifts for 2-3 hrs! No rushing all at once and being done in 20 minutes, like with my side of the family!
Your PT guy is just awesome! Stands for personal trainer too! He's a keeper. I'd love someone looking at my form and giving me pointers for improvement!
No matter what Cathe produces, I'm as excited each and every time! I cannot wait for XTrain!
My CA sis only does a couple of older Cathe workouts (KPC, BC) so I was describing what she's missing, and all the innovative and effective ones that Cathe has put out beginning with LIS. I was throwing terms like Tabata, HiiT, metabolic workouts, HC, etc. I told her she doesn't know what she's missing! I will be showing her my expanded collection when she gets here!
In closing, ladies, let's not feel guilty over eating holiday goodies. We are very disciplined Cathletes, and we always get back on the horse! Pat yourselves on the back for as much as you do!
Time for some sweets!

Hey all! Loving reading about all the traditions. We don't really have any but definitely have to come up with some good ones for B. I have such great memories of xmas when I was a kid. Carolyn~ REAL Santa lol. Tony and I got a laugh out of that. I like it. No workout for me today. We drove halfway to Duluth last night and stayed with Tony's brother and wife. We are in Duluth right now waiting for my mom to get off work. I'm feeding B in a Sear's dressing room. I'm spoiled when I go to the Mall of America. They have a super nice breastfeeding room with a changing table and sink for moms at Nordstorms. Talk to ya all soon

Forgot to mention that those frozen brownies sound delish! YUM! And Missy I feel ya on the eating. My BIL kept trying to get me to eat cookies today and I don't know how many times I had to say no. They were just basic sugar cookies too. If I'm going to eat the calories...which I will in these next few days....I want to make sure it's worth it. Enjoy the party though. If there is something you want, eat up. You work hard and will burn it off in no time.

Good morning.
My hinny is killing me today. I hit it good yesterday. Big time DOMS today. Today was HC vol 2 and 7 miles on the spin bike afterwards. I felt fried again today.
Glad you had a nice time at the party Missy and the food was good. See all that worrying and it worked out fine!!! You looked great in your picture yesterday. Thanks for sharing!
Carolyn, it's a yucky and raining day here too. Good luck with the returns today.
Marie, oh the breastfeeding memories!! I loved and hated breastfeeding at the same time. It wasn’t natural to me I think it was because “they” were so big; it was just awkward for me (sorry if TMI). But I loved that I was able to give that to both of my kids. I nursed both of mine for about 7 months.
Yeah it's Friday. Last day of work until the new year!!! So excited!!!

You're too much MIssy!!! Good for you!
My butt is killing me today!
I think it was those things on the ball. I need to do that more often I guess. I feel it right where your hamstrings and butt tie in. Yay me!
Should be doing my arms....here I sit. It is miserable out!! Pouring buckets!
I have lots of returns to do today. I am not in the mood, but I don't want to wait unitl after xmas!
guess I better get going!
Good afternoon.....well only several more hours...about 4....till christmas vacation.... come on 5 oclock!!!!

Marie, that's a great pic of you and Tony! What fun!
Colleen and Carolyn, yay for big-time doms!
I have soaking rain with high winds. Oddly enough, the sun is peeking through right now.
I've watched more clips. Here's my .02. Are you guys noticing music used in TTM/CF in XTrain?? Why did Amanda lighten her hair? She's a gorgeous brunette. The shorts with all the white or pink lines are uhhgly! I love the ?charcoal tops in Legs. Speaking of Legs, I recognize moves from KM and ?B&G.
Colleen, not TMI. I wish I stayed bigger but I feel like I shrank (shrivel, more like it) more after. Could be old age too.
Carolyn, good luck with returns. I'd do the same thing, going today instead of after Xmas.
I did TBT UB today. Didn't want to sweat again.
I won't be working out while my sis & family are here.

Good morning!!
Started off this morning with cycle max. I did 16 miles and burned 450 calories. It felt great!!
I used to watch days of our lives. But I don't anymore. Only because I don't have enough hours in the day. :-(.
When I was nursing I went up to a 36H. It was awful. I am now a 32 B or C depending on the brand.
Marie, sounds likes blast snow boarding. We've been talking about taking the kids skiing. I haven't been skis in 10 years.
I'm at the hair dresser waiting to get my hair cut an colored!
