Having lunch before I do the Costco run. I was just thinking this morning that my muffin top seems very big for summertime
! Great minds think alike. I'm disgusted though.
Jean, to go to Cape Cod, we go over the Sagamore or Bourne bridges. I try very hard not to panic but too often I envision drowning inside my car if it goes over. On Saturday near Provincetown there was a head-on collision with no fatalities, but I was joking that I wanted to kill those people.
Carolyn, how awesome about that belt! So amazed that such a thing exists!

Jean, that's so awesome you had the place to yourselves! It's the same when you go to the pool and discover no one else is there! Is the equipment new? Even better!
Carolyn, isn't Sam's similar to Costco? I've never been to Sam's.
Dh was up in Southern NH today with coworkers golfing.
Would you wear the strap all day?
Ugh, 60s is all right by itself but not when accompanied by chillier mornings and evenings, a signal of cooler weather coming. Waaah.

Hello!
I have been seriously stressing out about all this back to school stuff. High School sports are starting already and there is a mandatory meeting tonight, then actual tryouts the rest of the week. School doesn't officially start until next wed, why do sports have to start so early? And it really hit me that oldest is leaving in a week and a half.
I decided to go back to XT weights, so Mon was Ch-B-Sh. DD had a sleepover Monday night, and they sleep in my workout room so I got up, waited for it to get light, and went for a 3 mile walk. I was surprised no one else was out walking or jogging but it was very peaceful at that time of the morning.
Betty doesn't the cape traffic just kill? I am so relaxed while I am there, but going home changes everything.
Carolyn, I am so glad you are finding some relief from your pain. Those exercises sound like the ones my PT had me do as well. How nice that you got a night alone with dh.
Missy, I rely on my fitbit for the number of steps taken throughout the day, and it helps me increase my activity level. I almost feel naked when it needs a new battery and I can't use it for a few days. Good luck with the front desk!

Good morning! I did 4DS KB. I'm trying to do all, well, many of the Cathe dvds I have. Though there will definitely be ones I won't pull out.
Have I told you that ever since my frozen shoulders started, I haven't been able to do downward facing dogs?! It's one that I really like. I finally tried one today and it's not as stiff as it used to be. I can't push my shoulders through all the way but it's getting better.
Enjoying a fresh-brewed cup of DD. I think I may drink it daily when I work. It gives me a nice oomph to my normally slow, sluggish self. I won't give up my maple syrup and half and half with it though!
Missy, isn't LL&A the best? I just love it! It's on my permanent rotation along with GG.
I can't believe you sold your Fitbit. You and your scales and fitbits!
I feel for you on the 100 degrees! Talk about burnout. I'd have left a long time ago; can't function in that.
Carolyn, how fun to feel like teenagers again. Super for you two to connect as a couple. We have the parent hat on all the time.
Dh was near Nashua, he said. Passaconaway or something. I have no idea. Is that near you??
Hi Mary! Hang in there. I asked my girlfriend whose son is moving in next week and she doesn't feel sad. I wasn't too sad either. Maybe one misses daughters more.
I was craving fried clams on the way back from Provincetown and thought of the Chatham place. After being stuck for an hour or two, I realized there's no way to get there before it closes; we were still so far out. On the evening news last night, there was another wreck in the same town! This time with a fatality, sadly!
Better get ready for work.

Hi! I'm taking credit for Step Moves. Betty do you like that one? I also did core one.
Off to make b dinner. Pureed mixed vegetables with parm cheese, olive oil and pepper. He LOVES them. He always asks for more "peppers" meaning black pepper. Also turkey meatballs and grapes
Be back later to catch up fit friends

I just made a homemade chicken noodle soup....yummy!

Carolyn...I think I will look for a flex....hmmm...let me go see what I can find!!!!! Ebay here I come......

Mary- I feel for you! I just can't imagine DS leaving. Like Carolyn, I will be a mess! Thinking of you. That is ridiculous that sports start that soon. My nieces are dealing with the same thing right now. It's like come on, let them enjoy the last few weeks of summer.
Carolyn- What a nice date night. They are so important. I'm glad that belt is working for you. You'll be back to your old workouts before you know it. Sleep well tonight!
Missy- Omg 100's! I would die. I think I'd rather have snow although that is a toss up. Hope you get a Fitbit soon. Glad Summer is doing better! Love LL&A and FT So true about many obese people. I cringe at what certain people feed their kids. I mean everything in moderation. Also, activity....I always watched my mom workout so I know that's a huge reason I do it. DS does push-ups with me....more like bopping his head up and down but oh so cute!
Betty- Glad to hear your downward dog is getting better. Love that you're pulling out some oldies too. Can't wait to hear more. I'm doing the same. Determined to do them all! Costco has more organic choices too. Speaking of which I need to go soon. I need eggs and produce.
Jean- I love that you have a gym to go to. As much as I love Cathe, I miss running on the treadmill and spacing out with a magazine. I'm with you on the workout clothes. I wear shorts and a sports bra when I workout at home but wouldn't dare at the gym. I was all about Nike capris and tank tops back in my gym days. No jacket for the 60's haha! I'm a true MN girl. I wear flip flops in the 40's

Hi ho. Work was phones ringing a lot. Couldn't work for a few minutes straight without answering them.
For dinner, hh grilled salmon and ds made fettucine alfredo. We walked 35 mins in the evening. And watched Bad Words (Jean, seen this one?).
I had progress at PT today--I no longer need to go after next week's appt! I was originally going to stop after August too! Can't wait to get my 2 hrs back. I took charge and used equipment I don't have at home, specifically the lat pulldown machine. I just love that. She measured me and saw improvements but didn't tell me.
Missy, the wrist one sounds infinitely safer.
I love firewalkers too! So ingenious! So is FT.
Mary, what fabulous mornings this week for walking!
Marie, I hate that Costco doesn't have more organic stuff! I wouldn't know any better, except that I see it in CA!
I have Step Moves but I can't do it! I've probably not pulled it out more than twice ever! Too frustrating.

Betty- So true! I wish it was all organic! However, way better than Sam's selection from what I've seen. That's my mom's only option up north.
I drank too much coffee today and I'm not tired.
Working out tomorrow am.....no clue what I'll be doing although maybe Kickbox.....something I never do.
Jean- Mark my words I'm doing UY on Fri.
Alright I should really head to bed.

Good morning. Slept a smidge more because I decided on a rest day. Even though my internal clock automatically woke me at the earlier hour anyway.
Work 9-12, then piano in aft.
Enjoy your day.
Missy, you and I: we can do it! Only two more days this week! Working 5 days is for the birds, man!. I'm tired and yesterday it felt like it was Friday!
Those awesome Cathe doms! Enjoy!
Marie, do UY on Friday!

Missy Yay for DOMS and only two more days at the front desk! I want a treadmill SO bad. Dh has been looking for one on Craig's List. We've seen a few but they are not nice.
Betty Enjoy piano
Carolyn Have fun with your sis
I did Knockout Rockout today. I always get the name confused. Rockout Knockout. Idk! It was a good workout! I should do it more often.
We met a friend and her boy at the mall playarea this morning. She told me she's pregnant. SO excited for her!
