Good Morning Ladies.

It's circuit, extra cardio and abs for me today.

It's also my "big" eating day so I just finished eating a banana with pb and a glass of milk! :9

Time for coffee # 2!:)
 
Good Morning Ladies!

Today is C&W, plus 200 jumping jacks and 40 pushups. My bonus dare is scheduled for friday evening!
I am going to finish painting all the doors. I got the gloss paint and I am not so sure I like the glossy look. Does anyone else use gloss for interior?

Wendy,

Enjoy the food. Sounds like you are off to a good start. I just finished my oatmeal. I will have steak at 10am, if I can pull myself away from painting. I am going to cook it with gloves on as I am afraid paint from my hand my get into my food. Wish I had a mask too for the fumes. Probably should be drinking tons of green tea and orange juice since I will breathing in poison. All the windows are open though.

Good morning everyone:

First day of school here and it's already started to get crazy :+

Same here, Charolette, CW plus 200 jumping jacks and 40 pushups. I can't wait!!!! :)

It's a beautiful day, but I sure hated having to dress up again. The summer was nice wearing shorts and t-shirts to work, but now that the other staff and kids are here we have to dress up x(

Have a great day everybody!

Charolette: I don't envy you painting - BUT, I bet it will look great when you are finished.

Marcia,

I am sure it was wonderful to dress down all summer! Having to put "nice" clothes back on certainly is a bummer. I know whenever my job had a "dress down day" I would get so excited! lol Now I dress down every day as I am home with my baby...I actually MISS looking a little nicer these days! I have a wedding and my son's Christening coming up in a couple of weeks. Normally I can't stand dressing up in skirts or dresses but I am actually looking forward to "looking like a lady" since I have been living in shorts and sweats for 3 months now! :)
 
Good morning Everyone:)

Charlotte-Do you do cardio and weights as is? I find it to be too easy so thought you may have a harder way of doing it.

Marcia-I have a business that for the most part I run from home so I dress how I want. Unless I am out bidding houses then I try to dress it up a bit but not to much.

Wendy-I saw your post about the locket. I pray you find it! Oh that coffee sure sounds good you are having:)

Today I have one more workout to do from the aug 05 rotation and I need to go look at which one it is!

I will be back later

Terri
 
Good Late Morning Ladies!

I have an Irish Cream cake in the oven and it smells soooooooooooooooo goood. :9 Can't have any tho. x(

Hi Charlotte! I did the cardio from C&W's and All Step. Wasn't much but at least it was something after doing NOTHING yesterday. Was just too busy running around w/ the boys. I didn't even eat 700 calories yesterday so I just had an eggwhite and cheese wrap.
I'll have to look at your rotation again maybe I CAN do some of the things you have on there. Sounds like the painting is really coming along! :)

I'll bet it's an adjustment having to "dress" after the summer Marcia. I'm starting work in 2 weeks and I just found out I can wear scrubs. I am thrilled! :7 I do not have any nice clothes to wear in an office. I have jeans and maybe a pair or 2 of black slacks I wear to church or a funeral!!

Hey Terri! Good job with the August rotation!

Hi Wendy Girl! Good luck getting your calories in! Circuit and extra cardio huh? Sounds like a nightmare. LOL. I had to make yesterday a rest day. NO big deal. Marla tells me I'm supposed to take one day off every week but I don't. I have got to eat at least 1500 cals. today after yesterday! x(
How's Joey today? Did you find your locket?
I pm'd Lori yesterday about combining the threads but I didn't hear back from her yet. I hate posting things twice.

Gotta check my cake and the rest of the board!
Be back soon!

Hey Marcia!

Everyone...

Well let me tell you, I know exactly what I am doing here with my rotation! I kid you not! It starts off wimpy on purpose with C & W (doing it with no additions, etc). Then it kicks in and there is no escape! So ya'll going to join Marcia, Carla and I or are ya'll SCARED or something????
:p :9 }( :7


BTW, you do get 2 rest days in a week. Rightly so cuz we are going to be WORKING!!!!

And my painting is almost done. 'Bout time! I think I need to change the bluegrass station I am listening to to something else. I am starting to sound like a hollow honey!LOL!

Charlotte~~
 
Hey I back again to report I did a great hiit run for an hour. Next is legs and glutes then abs. I decided to make my own hard work out for the last day of my aug rotation. I may add some uppe body work but i worked it really hard yesterday so I am thinking not.

Kali-Where are you going to go to work at? Are you excited?

Charlotte-I looked at your rotation and it does look good. I am however use to at least an hour of cardio a day and a hour of weights. Somedays I do 90 minutes of cardio. So although the weight part looks like a great challenge I would for me have to add in more cardio. I may join you though on the days when you are doing lots of abwork as I loved it when I met your challenge of 1000. Also I know there is no way I could make myself take 2 rest days a week. I have a hard time doing one!

Marcia-Nice to see you here :)

Terri
 
Oh cool, Charolette!! I didn't know that someone else was joining us, too, it's Carla right?

Maybe we should have a "Toasty Check-In" on this forum? Or should we just check in with each other frequently?

I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO excited to get home and workout, I can barely stand it. ;-) SERIOUSLY!

Have a great afternoon everybody!

~Marcia~
 
Good afternoon ladies!

I need to catch up on here but I wanted to take a minute to tell you that I PASSED my exam! I am sooooo happy (mostly that it's over, lol). It was REALLY hard but the class I took was a tremendous help. I am going to indulge in some Chinese food this afternoon and then I will do an awesome workout later.

Back shortly to see what you all have been up to!!

Marie
 
Hey Charlotte I got to thinking....If I don't like the cathe rotation for September maybe you could make this rotation you are doing revised just for me! Come on Charlotte challenge me and make me accountable to you! Taking into cinsideration my cardio and no rest days addiction :)

Terri
 
Marcia,

I will be working out right along with ya as I decided to paint instead last minute so I will be working out around 4 too while dinner simmers in the crock pot.
We will all keep in touch, don't you worry.

Terri,

I am just teasing you and everyone else. I love to tease, can't help myself sometimes. LOL! Anyhow, step in whenever you like, you cardio maniac!

Charlotte~~
 
Marie,

So happy you passed your exam! WOW, you are just on a roll lately! Don't you feel good now? Chinese food is my favorite. I am sure your workout will be rocking with such good food in your belly. You go girl!
Charlotte~~
 
Hi Ladies.

I have been digging deep for motivation to exercise today to which I have been coming up empty for some reason...UNTIL the doorbell rang and low and behold...The new low impact step Cathe DVD has arrived! PERFECT motivation! I will do the circuit premix in a little bit. :)

I'll be back when I am done!!!
 
Hi Marie and CONGRATULATIONS!!!! :)

Wendy-Let us know what you think of the new dvd. I did my cardio so far but I am lacking motivation ofr my legs and glute workout. I think I will eat something then get on it.

Charlotte-I sent you an e-mail :)

Hi BJFlowers!

Terri
 
Too funny, Charolette - I have supper in the crockpot, too. :)

It's great to know that you are working out at the same time, cool!

~Marcia~
 
Hi Guys!

WAY TO GO MARIE!!!!!!!http://smilies.sofrayt.com/%5E/r/dance.gif[/img]knew you could do it!! And you were nervous! I could go for some shrimp fried rice. Is Chinese food clean? Anyone know?

How was Low Impact Wendy? Did you do it? What else is new? I feel like I've been gone for a week!

A toasty Check in huh? Feel free to use this check in! We'll be changing it shortly to the Fall Check in.
Wow Charlotte you are really motivating some people here! I'm gonna have to take a look at that rotation.

Hi Terri! How's it going?

Had a blast at my guitar lesson today. I am learning "Black Cat" by Janet Jackson. It's easy, and soooo much fun so far. Both the boys had a great day in school. Matt wants to go back tomorrow. WHEW!

Ok. Gonna go check out Charlotte's rotation.
Be back soon!
