I did get it!!! I'm very excited. I hope it doesn't take to long to get here. I am really looking forward to doing more yoga.
Today I did 15 miles on the spin bike. My whole body is sore from yesterday's ballet body. I'm very excited!!!
Carolyn, sounds like your PT session was productive.
Jean, congrats on getting a workout done today!!

I just heard on the news that there is a good chance for alot of snow in New York and Boston on Friday. Have yal heard that?
Carolyn That is funny that your husband went in on a cow. That is alot of meat. I am surprised he didn't talk to you about it first. When will you be getting it? I will try to remind you to cook some. Core 2 is very hard.

Jean, I am sick to my stomach at the thought of a foot of snow!
Please, please let the storm miss us!
Carolyn, that's hysterical--went in on a cow with a friend. I've not heard that expression before. At first I thought you meant you were going to raise a cow! You know, for milk, etc! Did they get a cow from a butcher?
Hmm, I can't remember core #2 at the moment. Does it have the pushup/situp combos? I simply can't keep up with those.
Your PT guy is so interactive and helpful. I just love that. More healthcare workers should be like him, really wanting to find the cause, and how to fix it.
My doms are from XT Disc 1. I'm sure you've done it many times but yesterday was my first.
I watch Touch and can't wait for the premiere.
Snow is not supposed to hit until Friday night to Saturday morning, so you should be clear for shopping! Enjoy your visit with your sis!
My spin bike should be here at the end of this week possibly!
Oh, Colleen, I am soooo excited for you! (Happy birthday to you!) Keep us informed on your reviews of UY!
That Ballet Body sounds very impressive!

Good Morning! I was MIA yesterday! Sorry! I was so busy....I never got a chance to get on computer while at work....and when I went home...I had a really bad headache. So I rested, after I did some light cardio....yes I am a mess!
Today, I woke up and hit the treadmill flying! LOL....I got a good workout in this morning. I feel much better today! Tonight I am doing Hardstrikes with my awesome pink gloves!!! (Excited, I just love that one) I like to wear a pink outfit while doing it, so I can feel like part of the Cathe crew!! LMAO!!!!!
I am sitting at my desk...impatiently waiting on lunch...I'm hungry! I broke a big salad...yum yum!!!
Hope everyone has a lovely day! Hello to all my friends!!!

Good morning friends,
Carolyn, wow a cow. That's a lot of beef. We don't eat tons of beef. I really only eat beef at home. I never order a hamburger out at a restaurant. The only time I get a steak out would be if we go to a high end steak house, which is maybe once a year. I'm the same way with the freezer, mainly because I don't take it out I time to cook for the night or I Forget what in the freezer. Lately I've been buying mostly organic meats. Wow what a difference. It really does taste so much better. Same with eggs alway buy organic brown free range eggs. So yummy!!
Today I did ballet body. She has one segment where she does glute work on the mat. OMG so hard and I'm still feeling it.
How's the knee?? Seems like you've turned for the better with your knee.
Hi missy, glad you are feeling better today. I was beat last night with a headache too.
Betty, I can't wait to hear how you like the spin bike.
Hi Jean, Marie and Mary.

Hello.
I have been running around a bit. Sitting down with my cafe mocha now.
This morning I completed XT Bis & Tris, with Core #2. B&T went by pretty fast! Fresh moves again. I see what you mean, Carolyn, about the core workout; endless stuff! I hardly recall doing this one before, but I'm sure I have at least once. I don't like these new core workouts. I do, however, LOVE the XT user guide! It's so awesome!
Haven't done Tabatacise in a while, so maybe I'll do that Friday.
I'm afraid of the 5:00 weather forecast!
I now realize that it may delay my spin bike delivery if it's coming down hard on Friday!
Carolyn, way to go on your workout today! I'm sure we all have a layer or two or three over our worked muscles. Don't beat yourself up due to your recovery. Carrie Underwood and all those celebrities have $$advantages like personal trainers, chefs, nutritionists. And, oh, they're about 10 -15 years younger too, so that helps enormously!
BB is by Sarah somebody. Oops, I mean Leah Sarago.
Colleen, I buy eggs from the local poultry farm and can tell the yolks are much more golden and taste better. Beef, I've not tried organic.
When's your UY due?
Does anyone have a separate freezer for meats and such? I don't. I feel that there's enough room in my top/bottom fridge.
Don't you just love those 3-door fridges nowadays?? I've been waiting for my kitchen appliances to go; they're still going strong after 20+ years.

Oh how my body has aged so much this past year. My mind says I'm young but my body is telling me different.
As Betty mentioned its ballet body by Leah Sarago. She has two different program. DVDs (she has 4) and downloads. I'm doing her Periodization System I using the downloads. You don't have to go into full relive ( on toes). Her downloads are not great production quality but the workouts are fantastic. I'd say the upper body workouts are somewhat similar to HC as she does plank work. She also gives fantastic cues and pointers. I think she is much better as describing how you should be doing an exercise than Sandra does.
For to finish cooking dinner bbl...

Carolyn We are both excited about Walking Dead starting on Sunday. I saw some previews of the 1st show and it looks good. I have never heard of Touch. I guess I will be checking that out. Just what I need is more t.v. shows to watch. I hope you get some good shopping time with your sister.
Betty My weather man said to "cancel your trip to Boston". That would be great if the spin bike could get there before the snow and that would give you something to do. We don't have a stand alone freezer. What brand of appliances do you have now? I always buy Kenmore and they last forever. I am surprised to hear you say your Cathe days are numbered. I know that is just how you are feeling today but I am glad to know I am not the only one feeling this way.
Has anyone tried Raspberry Ketones? I hear it is good for burning fat. I think I am going to give it a try. I understand it is expensive.
Colleen I don't know how old you are but you are too young to be feeling that way.
Hi Missy and Mary and Marie.

Carolyn, congrats on 1500 posts!
When does your sis fly home? Will the blizzard impact her?
Have you done Foundations this week?
Gals, healthy and fit as we are, it does take a toll! Incorporating some gentler routines would be kind to our bodies.
Jean, you hear back from DD?
Touch is stories about how we are all connected. It was refreshingly new & creative last yr, its first season.
18-24" of snow Friday!
Good night, friends!

Rest day for me today. I agree with you ladies on all this tough exercise taking a toll on our bodies. My knees have been 'tweaky' the last few days since I did Tabatacise on Monday, I think it is too much high impact. Discouraging though, as I need the intensity and feel like I have to keep pushing myself.
And all the talk of yoga makes me want to pull out my UY, but with 3 days of strength training in this 90 day roation I can't figure out how to fit it in. Those workouts are tough but doable so definitely count as strength workouts. Colleen, I will be interested to hear what you think of them.
Missy, I am still so impressed with the energy you have! Lately when I get home from work I don't want to do anything or leave the house again!
So lots of snow coming. I am hoping I can work from home, I'd hate to go in and get stuck there. I need to pay attention to when it is supposed to start. DH is away again this week and was supposed to fly home Friday night but managed to switch his flight to tonight.
Have a great day!

The tracking number I got from DD doesn't work?? Strange. So I have no idea when it will get here. I'll try to call them today if I can find a number.
I just have a side by side fridge/freezer. I would love a freezer in the basement but I'd probably waste more food if I did. I live the new fridges with the 3 doors. Mine is only 7 years old so I have a ways to go before ill get a new one.
Last night I did abs. I ran out if time yesterday morning. Today I did a spinervals workout I oversleep some so I only could get 40 minutes in. Figured it was better than nothing. I did 12.5 miles. My knee has been feeling really good this week!! Thinking on Saturday I might try a cathe cardio. Any suggestions on one that doesn't have a lot of lunges or impact? The LIC series can be bothersome on my knee at time.
Carolyn, where does your sister live? Enjoy today. I know this will sound crazy, given I HATE the cold, but I would like to get some snow. Just a few inches where the kids can go out and play and on the weekend were we don't have to worry about work. Told you it would sound crazy.
Has anyone ever used a rebounder? I've read that it good for joint issues. Wondering if it is something to look into. I don't know if I would get bored with it or not.
Betty, I hope you get your spin bike tomorrow.
Jean, last year I was so sick between bronchitis, asthma, stomach issues as then my knee. I've felt like I am a healthy girl, workout, eat good, not over weight, generally is good health, why is my body turning on me? My asthma is under control (never had asthma before last year), i have good days and bad days with my stomach and well my knee, I just needed to rethink my exercise and what I'm trying to achieve out of it. I want to be healthy, I also want to look good, I need it to help with my stress, I love how it makes me feel, it's my time. Im still getting what I want out of exercise with it just being easier on my body. Might I say my body is looking the best it ever has??? I guess for me change is good.
Mary, I hope you can WFH tomorrow. Good news that's DH is able to come home today. During bad weather we are able to WFH. It's our BCP policy. Do you still like your new job? I know you are in IT. Are you a programmer?
I hope you are ok Marie.

Hey all.
The blizzard is plowing toward us! Some places could get 24-30"! It could be me if the storm turns just so! I just hate the aftermath of a huge storm! Roads are narrow, you can't see with feet of snow on the sidewalks, snow gets filthy and ices over.....
Missy, I have navy and silver cars. Good luck in search/buy. I love a sunroof!
Oh, the moisture where you are is what's going to get pulled to give us the snow!
Congrats on finishing up all the extra work these last few weeks!
My tracking on the bike has said the same thing since the order--blank. The other day when I called, it had shipped on Monday I think. Idk how the storm will affect delivery. It comes from a southeastern state, I can't remember which, so it's not from too far.
Carolyn, the bathroom is in the cabin at Nature's Classroom. I'll have to ask DS if the doors were locked at night. Probably, because they wouldn't want any children wandering out in the middle of the night. Some cabins have more than one chaperone.
Lately I have been craving a cupcake, tall with frosting. There are none nearby, thankfully.
Colleen, congrats on being successful on coddling your knee! Do you have any Cathe step workouts? LICirc is all step routines, pretty easy to follow. I'm terrible with remembering the exact content of workouts. If you want to try XT, peruse the user's guide. It's very detailed.
I know what you mean about getting some snow but with a few conditions. Post-snowstorm commuting is a nightmare!
I couldn't find a telephone # for DD at all!
Since we're Cathletes, I daresay we probably look the best we've ever looked.
What does BCP stand for? I'm out of the loop
Jean, I have not heard of raspberry ketones. Let us know how you like it.
I have a mishmash of appliances. KitchenAid dishwasher (prob 25 yrs old), Roper stove (still pretty good), Whirlpool refrigerator (the only thing we bought when we moved in).
Mary, I finished Downton last night. So enjoyable.
Good thing DH is coming home tonight!
