STS first time!

Worked a half day today.....7 to 11. We had 3 discharges and then we had too many nurses on staff so I quickly volunteered to go home early. Came home and took a nice nap....felt so nice. Tony is on his way home now with dinner so we are gonna hang out and watch some Netflix :) Perfect evening!

Baby update....As of this morning I'm feeling more pressure in my pelvis and it's harder to walk. I think this means he has dropped. My belly doesn't look lower persay but something has definitely changed. I just feel different!

Off to read today's posts.....
 
Good Evening girls. Left work early @ 3 today to go and have my hair highlighted. It was past time. Now I look beautiful again!! hehehe :)

Just ate subway for dinner. Letting food go down and then time to hit the pavement! So excited! :)

Marie---Sounds like the little man is on his way. Enjoy your evening with Tony...it could be one of the last!!!!! :p

Jean---Hopefully you will have some good DOMS tomorrow!!!

It rained all day yesterday, has looked gloomy all day today but never rain!

Okay, off to get dressed! BBL! :)
 
Just got back from our run/walk! Feels great! Tim thinks he is going to die, but I feel great!!! He says he is going to eat the entire house now!!! :eek: I remember when I first started working out I felt like that every time I worked out!!!:eek:
 
Marie, good luck with labor when it comes on! It is imminent!:eek: We will have you in our thoughts the whole time!

Carolyn, bummer about AB giving you some knee pain. You'll have to take it easy. Missy's right--abs! And UB!

ColleenD, congrats on your DOMS!:eek: They sound bad! In an envious sort of way;)!

Jean, you have endless patience with your animals. It's heartwarming.:)

Good night, all!
 
Good Morning Ladies,

Checking in with Cycle Max Extreme premix this morning. Wow, what a workout. I burned 610 calories and did 19 miles. My core is on fire today. I don’t feel much in my upper body from volume 2 yesterday, but I can really feel my core, especially while spinning. It felt good to get some cardio in today.

Marie, How are you feeling today?

Missy, I always love getting my hair done. It makes me feel so much better too.

Jean, How are you feeling today after Chest and Triceps? Does your Shih Tzu enjoy getting baths? I could never cut my Shih Tzu’s hair. When she was a puppy, I would brush her hair every night, of course that was before kids. We usually get her groomed about every 6 weeks or so.

Colleen K, hope you are ok. Didn’t see you post yesterday.

Carolyn, is your knee feeling any better today?

Hi to everyone else!!

Happy Friday.
 
Good Morning. Today is a beautiful day. Sunny with a slight breeze ,going up to 80. Today I did Squat Rack legs and extended stretch.

Marie That is great that you got a 1/2 day yesterday. How exciting that the baby dropped. Like Carolyn , I am so excited for the "labor" announcement. I hope you are all ready.

Missy Poor Tim. You will get him in shape. Just remind him how you felt when you had 60 extra pounds and were just starting out. You have come so far.

ColleenD Those Cycle Max w/o's sound amazing. You certainly do burn alot of calories. I had no idea that you go 19 miles. I have some doms in my chest by not my triceps. But they look good. :D My shih tzu is so old that I can't take her to the groomer. :( She does not like a bath but she is very weak so I have control. I am no groomer so she doesn't look great when I am done but she looks better. She sleeps from 10 am to 6 pm so I have to catch her when she is awake to do things to her. I take my other dogs to the groomer every 8 weeks.

Carolyn are you noticing a flatter core?

Jean
 
I got a full day off today :) Happy but feeling slightly guilty. Oh well! We only have 9 patients on the unit now and had 4 nurses scheduled so 2 people had to take the day off. I figured why not me?!

Slept in which felt great! Sleeping while I can like everyone says. Took a shower now chillin on the couch. Tony is off and busy changing the oil on the cars. I'll get moving soon and we will go do something this afternoon. We have dinner plans with our nieces this evening :)

Carolyn- Loved your post! Thanks so much! Can't wait to send you all that 'in labor' post too :) Enjoy your 3 day weekend with the kids!

Missy- Nice job on the run with Tim. So proud of him. He will feel great in no time

Betty- Thanks for the thoughts! Can't wait to meet my little guy!

ColleenD- Nice job on CM! I'm feeling good today. The cramping is gone. I do feel like my belly is lower today though :)

Jean- Nice job on squat rack :) We are soooo ready! Everything is all set up. The house is clean. He can come anyway now haha! My little man :)

Alright Tony is finished with the oil. I best get moving and enjoy our possibly last day off together!
 
Hey everyone!

Did TTM Extreme today! I've not done the add-ons before, and it also has been a little while since I pulled this workout off the shelf. Wow, by the time core came around, I was wiped! I thought, no way I'll be able to do the add-ons, but silly me, no wonder there was a part I didn't recognize!:eek: I already did the add-ons!:D The best part: 513 calories! I don't know if I've ever had a workout that scorched over 500!

Jean, we have the same exact weather. Not feeling it drying up since it's so warm. We have had cloudy and/or wet for 6 out of the last 7 days! Needless to say, the step was darn sticky this morning!:mad:

Carolyn, isn't it great we have the school holiday? Enjoy!
Are you all right and a little more reconciled with your meniscus tear & surgery?

Marie, don't feel guilty. If I were one of your colleagues, I'd gladly let you have the time off!:D
Change the oil is right. Won't be much time to do those things initially with a newborn!
You are going to look back at this wonderful pregnancy with such fondness. It's such a beautiful time. Cherish these last few days!

ColleenD, that CM Extreme sounds :eek:! Wishing I had a spin bike!

TTYL!
 
Quick check in this AM. I did HC volume 3 today. Wow what a workout. She really get the obliques. Took me well over an hour to complete. But I did it (if course with stopping and some modifications).

I hope every one a wonderful Saturday.
 
Good Afternoon girls.....I have been crazy the past few days. Yesterday I had to work front desk so I have no computer time! :(

This morning I got up and went to a 2 hour zumba class in the next town! Had fun! It was a 40 minute drive. I only went because the instructor I like so much invited me to come. She moved and I have not been to a zumba class in months. It was nic to catch up!!! Next saturday I have the Run for Rover 5k!!! All monies go to the local humane society! The following saturday I have another 2 hour zumba class all monies go to our local oncology center for breast cancer! Then the next weekend I have another 5k race! I am busy all October and loving it!

Funny....ever since I was in the newsletter, I get private messages asking about weight loss and tips....I feel like I am helping people!!! So cool!

Off to put some laundry in the washer...BBL :)
 
Good Evening Ladies. Not much happening on the forum lately. I didn't w/o today. I just wasn't in the mood. I did some cleaning instead. I guess everyone is out having fun. The weather is turning cool here. Tomorrow is only going to be in the 50's. We may have to turn on the heat and make sure it works. :rolleyes: I have pretty good lower body doms today from squat rack legs. I don't really notice much happening down there. :(

Marie I hope you had a nice day off with Tony. Those days are almost over. I am more excited everyday for the baby.

ColleenD You are loving that HC. It sounds like you are getting thru the w/o's. You must be strong.

Missy That is fantastic that people are asking your advise on exercise and eating. You should be so proud of yourself.

It seems like we are slowly losing some of the new ladies. Hello to you all if you are still reading.

Jean
 
I'm a celebrity!!!! hahahaha :) I watched the video on facebook on Xtrain! I was so excited I was freakig out! My husband....said.....you are too cute! Freaking out about an ass kicking!!! :) Gotta love Cathe!!!

As for us losing the newbies.....think back over this past year....we have lost alot of people...but the strange thing is I don't see them anywhere on the forums. They must have lost interest in exercise??? I hope that is not the case!!!

Tim & I just got home from Mexian restaurant!!! Yum, Yum!! Gonna have to run extra mile tomorrow and do a hardcore Cathe DVD to make up for that one!!! But it was delish!!! :)

Carolyn---how is your knee doing? You deserve a day of rest! :)
 
Just got in from my 3 mile run/walk!!! The weather was nice this morning so I hit the open road! hahaha :)

Thinking tonight I will do TBT. Maybe the entre thing!!! :D

Off to get hay and barn chores!!! BBL!!! :eek:
 
Good Morning everyone. Today is raining and gloomy and in the 50's. I did back and biceps today. Todays movie is going to be "The Five Year Engagement". That has Jason Segel and Emily Blunt. Well Not much going on here today. Have a nice day ladies.

Jean
 
Forgot to check in yesterday -- just getting over a cold, so I've been offline. Did Disc 7 yesterday -- oh. my. pushups. Ouch.

CrossFire is on the schedule for today!
 
Hello, ladies!

I haven't checked in on this thread for ages, or spent much time in the forums. I am still exercising with Cathe. I've been doing LIS this past month and have been enjoying it. I never finished meso 3 and don't have any plans to re-visit STS soon. Wishing the best for all the other newbies!

I hope everyone is well. I'll try to pop in more often!

Linda
 
Betty- Nice job on TTM. This pregnancy has been good to me for sure. I'm gonna miss it but couldn't be more excited for my little B to get here.

Carolny- Good for you for resting. I know it's not easy. I haven't done Cathe in weeks :/ And I beg to differ with your DH- you are young and in such good shape.

ColleenD- Nice job on HC. I'm so tempted to buy these!

Missy- That is so cool about people messaging you! I'm sure you are giving them great advice! Nice job on the 3 mile run/walk :)

Jean- Loved that teaser! So pumped to get that series :) Enjoy your movie!
 
Quick check in again today. I'll try to catch up on personals tomorrow. Weekends are so busy!

I did a spinning DVD today Mindy Myrea best ride in town. Not my favorite, but I have not done it in a while. She does a lot if intervals so it really got my heart rate up. Did 17 miles and burned 477 calories in about an hour! The cardio felt great today.
