Good evening! Watching y&r on the elliptical....letting my knee rest. The elliptical doesnt bother me on elliptical. My knee feels 100% better...but taking your advise and letting it rest tonight!
Carolyn-- i think you are right about the running clinic. I would talk to you pt...he has been very helpful! Look at it this way.... that $500 could be alot of pt copays if needed! Seems like the pt has helped more than anyone.
Betty--- i will look into those movies. Sounds like they are right up my alley!
Jean--- i have your mom in my thoughts. Hopefully all is well.
Hello to colleen, marie and mary!!!
Check back later!

Carolyn, that's a coincidence because we had burritos a la Chipotle! I love them but they are so pricey! $2 extra for guacamole too! Anyway, I was paging through a vegan book this morning and saw a recipe for a tortilla casserole, and it made me think of it. The best part is that I had dribs and drabs of most of the ingredients already, so I googled a recipe, and threw a close approximation together. I thought it came out pretty good (although anything with avocado and red onion would taste great), but noooo, DS1 was dying for meat! Last night I made a vegan smoky split pea soup (delicious!) and he was literally gasping for meat! He is such a challenge to convince!
It ain't happening! Whereas currently DH is so busy with work, I just put whatever in front of him and he eats it (don't worry, it's an uphill battle with him too. He still longs for Wonder Bread and Spaghettios, loves hot dogs, etc...). DS2 had chicken noodle soup tonight. Besides having a cold, he is a major finicky eater. Normally, he would have had to eat it though.
I love hard taco shells. Do you remember Jack-in-the-Box before Taco Bell came along? Yum yum! I think they were deep fried! They still exist in CA!
You need to take anti-inflammatory something for your foot. Maybe you can down a gallon of tart cherry juice in one day?? Is it your left foot, I hope?
Colleen, your 2 cents is right. Missy, good point on the copay thing! Especially since the PT guy has been sooo helpful!
Watch that knee!
Waaah, I want UY!!! See how quickly coveting for HST or other Cathe workouts can be a dim memory!??
Carolyn, maybe you have to get Short & Sweet to work up a sweat?!

Hello Everyone!
This morning I did Tabatacise 1-3 plus core. Tough but good, and I absolutely hate tuck jumps! I'll have to time that one for a weekend next time, it is hard to get into so early in the morning!
Carolyn, I would hold off on that appt. as well. It seems like alot of money, and I'm not sure they would tell you anything new. It sounds like your body needs some time to heal, as hard as that is. And my family loves tacos too, one of their favorite meals. Sometimes its nice just to have something everyone will eat without complaining.
Betty, how exciting to get a new piece of equipment! It always rejuvenates me to get something new.
Missy, my Mom is a Y&R fan. I've followed the plot lines with her over the years.
Marie, B is adorable, enjoy the time with him. So many changes in that first year.
Ok, off to watch some teen tv show with dd. I dont' really enjoy it but like to know what they are watching.

My daughter LOVES tacos. I get shells and the seasoning in the organic section of wegmans and I use grass fed organic beef. Yummy!!!! She would eat them every day if I let her. Your dinner sounded good too, Betty. I love Mexican food.
Dinners tonight was interesting. DH wanted raviolis, which I can't eat. So I made that for him, pizza for the kids. Dd likes raviolis but ds doesn't. I can't make home pizza without her wanting some. I made peppers and onions for myself with organic chicken sausage. It was yummy.

I have to say I really think it is muscualr...because I am starting to really see muscle def in my lower body! It is awesome!!! I am sure the scale has went up but I dont care...I am loving these muscles. I measured my calfs last night becasue Tim said .... your calfs are really popping out! Oh yeah...they are up an inch!!! Bring on my muscles!!!
Carolyn---I am glad to hear B&G didnt hurt your knee.... Enjoy your workout...

Hey everyone,
Just finished CLB (lots of jumping, but I'm liking the sculpted look of my lower thighs from the side view) and 100RC Scarecrows (my first peek at any 100RC). I used 3 lbs but maybe next time I should use 2. Love the neural pathway concept of these! Cathe thinks of everything!
Jai is just gorgeous in Scarecrows. Dang, girl! Her trim and toned body is just perfection. Sculpted arms and legs, luminous skin. What a role model.
70s, Missy?? So lucky! Any humidity with that? That usually ruins it for me.
High five for all the muscle definition and staying away from the scale!
Colleen, we have the first Wegmans in MA in Northborough or someplace. It's far, so I've never seen it. I hear such good things about it. Another one is going up much closer. Just what I need--yet another market to hit! I often go to 4 places in a week! Five, if you count the poultry farm I buy eggs from.
You must have a large workout DVD library! Yoga on the mind! It's certainly in mine!
Carolyn, do you have an elliptical at home too?
Did ColleenK ever end up getting one, I wonder.
Jean, what is your workout today?

Betty,
I have a love/hate relationship with Wegmans. Love the store, but hate how crowded it gets. I have a mom and pop grocery store that is 2 miles from me, but I find myself traveling to Wegmans at least weekly. It's only 10 minutes away, so I can't complain about that. I also go to a local whole foods store (not the chain). Odly enough the prices really can't be beat at Wegamans, they have a wonderful selection and alway fresh and local produce. I try to avoid it at all costs on the weekend because it is a mad house. I was acutally there last night after work to do my weekly shppping....
My DVD collection consists of TONS of FIRM and Cathe, The HC workouts, Ballet Body and a handful of spinning DVDs and a few Yoga workouts. I will sell some on eBay every so often of the ones I don't like/don't use. I really need to get rid of my FIRM ones, but I have so many and I don't know if they are really worth anything. They are in the basement in a storage container..

I think DS2 could have gone to school yesterday too, but with all the cautions floating around in my head about flus and keeping a child home when contagious, I caved in. He did sleep till noon so he was battling something, but now comes the endless drippy faucet! And I've been running around wiping the surfaces he touches. Like I need that!
Carolyn, I hope to hear that your insomnia is cured with this yoga dvd! I am longing for yoga! XT is doing a number on my knees, or maybe I'm being critical of it because I'm thinking of UY! Can't. stop. thinking. My knees do ache though.
What do you say I propose to Deep Discount that we get 50% off if all 4 of us buy it together? Carolyn, Colleen, Marie? (And anyone else we can rustle up!) Isn't that a great idea?? I cannot pay current price for it knowing it was 50% off a couple of months ago! (I must remember to use ebates!)
Must finish my cafe mocha now and go cook!

LIS LIC for me this morning. I hadn't done that one in awhile and was sort of tripping over my feet trying to remember the moves.
B and I went to a retirement party for a lady I work this this afternoon. He was the hit of the party
I got new shoes!!!! Super pumped. Ryka's! I usually an Asic's girl but thought I'd try something new. They were 40% off at DSW....gotta love a sale. They felt good this morning.
Speaking of cooking for others. DH doesn't like most healthy foods. I try to buy stuff and he's like ummm I don't think. When I cook for him I try to have a happy medium so we are both happy. Hard to do though.
Carolyn- I love that you took that video for a half hour. I was taping for 14 minutes last night and didn't get anything. Sorry to hear DD isn't feeling well....hope she gets better soon. I'm with everyone on the running evaluation....that's a lot of money for that.
Missy- Glad your knee is feeling better. Mine too only aches after hard workouts with lots of plyo. I've been focusing on low impact this week and it feels better already. I'm sure the new shoes will help too. Yeah I *think about taking rest days, like oh tomorrow, well no I have that day off. How about a day I work day shift. Well no because I need to be alert for my shift so I need to workout. How about on a day I work evenings. Nope because I need to stay up late those days so I need my energy from working out. Yeah they don't happen lol. Man that lady at your work sounded horrible! Some people are just plain miserable with their life.
Betty- Yay for your spin bike I'm all for that deep discount deal...let's do it I'll have to check out those documentaries. Thanks for that!
Mary- I HATE tuck jumps too. Wish I could think of an alternation that burned the same amount of calories.
Colleen- Your dinner sounded so good. I love chicken sausage.
Mary- Thinking of you and your mom.

Hi Ladies. Sorry I have been MIA but I have been busy with my moving stuff. My Mother is doing fine. Sorry to worry you Carolyn.
We got approved for our construction loan . I have been trying to go over everything that I told the builder I want to make sure it is what I really want. Plus I have been doing more purging. I have not worked out in over a week . I am really in moving mode.
Speaking of food , my husband is very easy to feed. The only thing he doesn't like is lima beans. He will eat anything I put on his plate. I am very lucky in that way.
Our weather has been crazy. Yesterday and today have been around 70 degrees. Now it is pouring down rain and it is going to get cold tomorrow.
TBL was real good this week.
Is anyone watching "The Following" with Kevin Bacon? OMG that show is so good.
You guys have got me wanting UY also. I watched the video on the website and it looks really good. If you find a good discount , let me know.
Marie How exciting that B rolled over. I bet you were so excited. I am so envious that you are working out so hard everyday and working those different shifts and raising a baby. I just can't push myself that hard. But good for you. Keep up the good work. I love your new avatar. B is such a cute little baby.
Carolyn I hope your daughter feels better soon. I am glad you are enjoying the yoga. I am quite surprised to hear that you are liking it as much as you are. You are really making me want it.
Missy Congrats on the calf definition. As much as you do the ellip , I would think they are looking good.
Betty Even you are seeing more leg definition. That is great. I wish I could do legs more and eat less crap.
Hi Colleen . How is Cuddles? She makes me smile every time I see her pic come up on my computer.
Hi Mary. I am glad to hear you are keeping up with Xtrain. I am jealous.
Well I will try to keep up to date and hopefully bring myself to w/o.

Carolyn, DS2 always starts with a very painful sore throat. That's the progression of his colds. Have you given DD decaf tea with honey? And/or have her gargle with salt water (which makes my son gag)?
Hi Jean, we've missed you!
I'll take your UY request as #5! I want it. I want it. I want it.
Is everyone on board with me asking Deep Discounts? I'll wait for Marie and Colleen to confirm. I wonder if we should post and get many more on board. Perhaps I can ask DD first and they'll say we need a particular number, and then I'll post it.
Isn't Downton great?? I think I'm going to watch season 3 on pbs.org. You can do this option too, unless you mind watching on your computer monitor.
My s-i-l was just telling me about The Following. It sounds creepy.
I got in an hour walk today with this mild weather! With 2 of my neighbors. Slow and leisurely, but better than nothing!
Today I ate mostly vegan, with the exception of shrimp. (As I sit here and eat a cookie.) Does that make it pescetarian? Anyway, this won't last long. DS1 is dying for meat, so it'll be chicken tomorrow night.
