STS first time!

Carolyn, I suppose you can't ever be too sure. I am super leery too. In both our Italy places, my sis emailed with a private owner or manager of the property. The safest bet is not to have to put any down payment, so that you wouldn't be out any money, and the worst is that you have to drive to find a hotel. We paid after we arrived and looked at the property. In both instances, the reps were very responsive, both in email and when we were in Italy. In vrbo, there are also reviews, but I suppose those could be faked. Don't forget to look at tripadvisor.com too.
 
Okay...i am still numb.....i am ill! This shit is aweful....i am om the treadmill trying to sweat it out....its driving me nuts!
 
Missy- Still numb? Omg you are sensitive to that stuff! Sorry!

Betty- Enjoy that mocha! Yum!

Colleen- Ugh sorry! Hope the meds kick in fast!

Carolyn- Remind me where you are going again? Mama brain is in full effect lately. B is teething and has been getting up 4-5 times a night. Poor lil bud......and poor me ;)
 
I may skip Meso 3. Still undecided. In the meantime I need to get boxing gloves for Hard Strikes. For those who have them where can I get the best deal? And what weight does Cathe and crew use? I think I'll post this in OD too. TIA!
 
I am sensitive.....it was 7 oclock when the numbess was completely gone.. then i attemped to eat...had to eat soup because my mouth is so sore....

Marie...cathe uses 12 oz gloves...and so worth it. It makes the workout 100% better....i just love hard strikes!

Going to lay down...hopefully my mouth will feel better tomorrow!
 
Good morning.

So strange when I first wake up I feel good then a few hours later I feel crappy again.

Woke up today feeling good and knocked out bb lower body segments. I did 4 of then and it felt good. Now my head is full and I feel the pressure. I hope these meds kick in soon.

Marie, if you don't feel like finishing Meso 3 then do something else. Or just fit in what you can. J like you walking plan.

Missy are you feeling better this morning?

Carolyn, did you find a place yet?
 
Quick check-in during my pumping break.

CF and Core1 this morning. I really didn't think I'd get up but when I went to bed last night I set my alarm for 4 with hopes that I would and it worked. Very happy about that.

So my plan is to not stress about Meso 3, just like you all are telling me. Thank you for that :) I'm going to do whatever workouts I feel like and then on April 1st I'm going to start the 90 day XTrain rotation. I'll work UY in by doing the easier ones on rest days. Thinking Yin, Gentle and Flexibility.

I think I'm in need of coffee. Just dragging today. I'm charge nurse too so I have of bit of extra work to do.

Missing my baby already! It is 3:30 yet?!

Have a good day everyone!
 
Hello....Let me try this again....I have been trying to post since 8:30 this morning....and I keep getting interupted!

My mouth is extremely sore today....but I feel okay. Just struggle opening my mouth.

I did my morning cardio and am at work. Looking forward to 5 oclock. Tic Tock Tic Tock...where is 5 oclock? hehehehe

Tonight I am doing Hard Strikes...just feel like a jumpy workout today....I have a 5k tomorrow morning...hoping the rain hold off till after...as I am not going if it is nasty out!

Hope everyone has a fantastic day!
 
btw....Marie---good for you....do what you want...I tend to go crazy sometimes trying to follow a routine...becasue I am the type of person....I like to do what I want....not what someone tells me to do...LOL...go figure...I am a natural red head! hehehehe

Carolyn---you better hurry and book your vacation home....tic tock....time is running out! ;)

Be back....

Colleen---Hope you start to feel better soon!
 
Ok, I figured I would pull out LICh since I haven't done it in many months. Well, guess what? Time (and the blasted choreography) is not my friend. Ugh. I get so frustrated!:mad: I don't think I've improved on this at all. I'm having less and less patience for step! Even though that's what drew me to Cathe in the first place. The step is not knee-friendly either, even though I'm at a comfortable 1-riser.
Well, I got a walk in too.

Missy, we are all sensitive to different things, inexplicably. At least your novocaine has worn off, and your cleaning and filling are done. High five!:D
Good luck tomorrow on your 5k. I'm sure you'll have great weather. I just realized that a year ago, we had such an unusually mild winter that by now, the lawn was all green and the spring plants were already abloom. That is rare, I know. Because we have a snow-covered lawn, and the temps cannot pass the 30s this week:confused:.

Marie, don't spend any more energy feeling guilty about not sticking to a rotation. What matters is that you already stick to working out! Give yourself lots of credit for getting up so early and doing it before a full day's work. With a very young baby.

Colleen, imagine the fluid in there, enough to cause you pain. It'll take time to dry out your sinuses. Be sure to get lots of rest tonight. Nice job cranking out exercise in this situation!

Betty---Dont be upset.....step is one of those things...that you just have to do....to stay good at it....I think we have all gotten away from the step workouts....and the thought of them...well is quite scarey because we havent done them in so long. High five for getting a walk in.

Looking forward to my weekend...the weather forcast is aweful for this weekend....rain and storms are on there way...hoping they wait till after 10 am....tomorrow.....

I have a few more things to do before 5....be back later....

Tonight I am staying home...having a home cooked meal and resting....Tim is so tired, these 6 days a week and working from 7:30-6:00 is killing him....he will not have to do it forever just untill he can find some help....he has been interviewing people...but he wants someone that knows what there doing.....its hard to find good help....:confused:

:D
 
Betty, I feel your frustration with step. I'm lost anymore when I do step. Not a fan anymore. Good job on the walk and getting through step.

Missy, glad you will be relaxing tonight. I know - it sure is hard to find good help. I'm looking forward to relaxing tonight too.
 
So excited.....just tracked my package....and my cushy pad is in route to be delivered today!!! Yeah....I can do abs on my cushion so my tailbone done hurt....hehehehehehe

I may have to do a ab workout after Hard Strikes....good thing I have an hour and half before Tim will get home....yeah!!!

I am a nut, I know....I just love getting new fitness stuff!!! :D
 
Rise and shine....got up at 5:45....and cooked my hubby a big breakfast....scrambled eggs, 2 pieces of bacon and a bagel and brewed him some coffee. Now he is off to work....and i am getting ready for my 5k....its not raining yet.....fingers crossed it stays that way!

Last night i washed my beautiful car....gotta show up in a clean sexy car.

Off to shower and get dressed...i have to leave in 30 minutes....

Check back later.
 
Quickie check-in...

Circuit Blast for me this AM. Loved it! First time for that one. So back in the groove now that's I'm not stressing about Meso 3. I do plan on doing Plyo Legs still those. Those get the DOMS going real good ;)
