Summer Fitness Challenge Mar 28-Apr 3

Oh Lori, I feel for you! That's absolutely disgusting. I'd be eating ice cream too!!

Imax 3 is pretty tough, so kudos to you for getting through it.

I went out for dinner with friends tonight and I'm so excited because one of them got me an 8 lb medicine ball for my birthday!!! I was wanting one to do the third segment of Coremax but didn't want to pay the $45.99. However, I ate way too much (I LOVE Middle Eastern food - hummus, spicy grilled veggies, YUM!). I came home and did KPC.
 
Um....its still snowing here.Can you beleive that? Its been over 24 hours since the snow started.I can barely see my car outside.The plows are gone off of the road and no cabs are going anywhere(cabs are always going somewhere)I am still at work and the big plows they use to clear the runways are even getting stuck.They are contantly pulling each other out.And its suppose to be 5 and 8 degrees this weekend so you can only imagine the mess and water this weekend.

I slept for a while at work.Its just as well, no planes were landing in this.I slept from 2-3:30 and 4-5:30.I can't wait to get home and crawl into bed.It seems like I won't be missing much so its just as well if I slept all day.
I am not sure what the workout will be today.A body part,abs and cardio.Just not sure which workouts.
I will check back when I wake up.

Awwwwwwwwww - thanks Judy:)

Lori - I think you should just crawl under the covers and don't come out until it's all gone!

It's a nice day here so far, but it's going to rain later. Which is actually good, because my car is filthy!

Tonight I'm going to do Musclemax.
 
Geez...what a bunch we have around here! No ones checking in anymore? Just me and the pussy with a lime on its head? Oh well,I like cats!

I slept today until 2 and I sort of have a headache.I managed to do Low Max this afternoon and I intend on doing something tonight.But that depends on how much energy I have.I usually get my second wind.But I may just relax and watch Bridget Jones instead.

I will check back later,
Lori:)
 
I'm here, I'm here! I did Powerstrike 2 this morning and found that it wasn't as intense as Taebo Advance live or the Get Ripped Advanced Series. this kinda bugged me - I really wanted to like powerstrike. Honestly, it's not that I don't like them, its just that they aren't as good as something I already had. I'll try it again before I make such a serious judgeement. I also have Powerstrike 1 and 2 to do also!

I weigh in on Saturday - my 2nd week of my second phase 1! I hope my numbers are good...

I am waiting for my spaghetti squash to finish up right now. I also made pesto and I'm looking forward to dinner!

Been eating well all week and I mostly did Taebo Live workouts this week. Bo, do I miss the old Billy!

Hi Ladies,

This morning I did IMAX3. I notice the more I do this one, the more I love it. Cathe posted the April Rotation, I'm gonna pass. That is basically what I have been doing the past 6 weeks. I'm thinking of following the Jul '03 rotation for fat loss and definition, of course subbing in some of the HC's where possible. I'm also going to review the Jan/Feb rotations and see if I can come up with something to get this fat of my body.

Take Care everyone,

Diana
 
Hey Diana - I love Imax 3 too. It sure grows on you!

I'm also giving the April rotation a pass, mostly because I have very few of the workouts listed. I may try the March fat loss rotation, but I'll have to do a little bit of substitution.

Tonight I did Musclemax. I love it! I upped my weights on a few exercises too and MAN do those bands ever work you good!
 
Good Morning Ladies,

I should take some pictures so that you guys can see how much snow we got in the last 2 days.I can't even see out my front window and there is no where else to put it.You can't see any og the pavement on the streets, the snow is packed down so hard.Like they say,"out like a Lion". I hope its on its way out but it will take even longer for it to be over now!
Last night we went out for dinner,after that me and my little girl watched Bridget Jones (the second one) I really liked it.I think I may actually buy both Bridget movies.I don't think there will be a #3.I beleive I read somewhere that she wasn't going to do another one.It can't be healthy gaining and losing all that weight.
Today I am doing cardio and some form of weights.I think I should look over some of the rotations as well.I think I am going to do one body part per day, I wonder is there a rotation there for that?I could use the HC and Pyramids.
Today we are going to go buy a fishx( Another useless animal.Thats what she wants to buy out of her b-day money.She already as 2 guniea pigs that are stuck in a cage.I think I will get my dad to make a cage for them outside this year so that can spend more time out there without me having to babysit them.I only see this as something else for me to do....instead of a cage to clean it will be a tank!
I will check back later,
Lori:)
 
Good Morning,

What a coincidence. My Dh and I watched Bridget Jones 2 last night also! It was great.

I haven't been checking in as much because my sister just found out her baby's sutures in his skull are closing too soon. He needs surgery to reopen the sutures. She is a nervous wreck and just found out yesterday. He had a CT scan earlier this week. My family and I have been with her and her dh, and I haven't exercised in 2 days. It is devestating because this is her first baby, he is only 6 months old. Now he needs a major operation, blood transfusions, etc. But he will be okay. He is the most precious thing you ever saw.

We had a trip planned to Washington DC for the end of April. We had to cancel, but we will go next year.

I have to workout today. Maybe HSC again, or MM.

Have a great day. :)

Good morning!

Lori - I'm so sorry to hear about the snow. That's very disheartening! We're supposed to possibly get a little bit tonight, but then Sunday it's back up to 10 degrees Celsius, so it should all melt.

The sun is out right now, which always makes me feel better. And it's Friday! And I get my darling girl back today!

Tonight I'm going to do Step Blast and KPC abs. I might order another dvd or two today!
 
Hi Ladies!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rosie had her puppies, the monring of the 31st, the very EARLY morning. I was up most of the night. There were three, and they are all boys. They are so cute!!!!

Yesterday I did ME, today I will do some cardio, either KM, or KPC.

Have a good weekend everyone.
Lori
 
Hi Everyone,

This morning I did Rhythmic Step, what fun. I know I say that about all the cardio w/o's, but they are really fun to me.

I'm considering doing the Jan, Feb, or Jul '03 rotation. Any of them would certainly work, but I also want to keep using some of the newer stuff as well. Will let everyone know when I decide.

Lori-I live in Colorado and we could certainly use the snow. We've been going through a drought the last several years. We've even had watering restrictions for your yard, no washing cars in the driveway etc. I'm sure all that snow gets old though. Hang in there.

NurseLori-so sorry to hear about your nephew. Your family needs you and are grateful you are there for them. I will keep your family in my prayers.

LoriSax-How exciting. What are you planning to do with your 3 new puppies?

Shelley-What rotation are you planning on doing. If I could, I would do IMAX3 all the time.

Have a great weekend ladies.

Diana
 
Hi ladies,

Lori-Im so sorry about the news.Theres nothing worse then when bad things happen to babies.I hope everything goes well.Keep us posted!
LoriS-Happy to hear your babies are here.What are they?

Get a load of this one.Went to Walmart today to get everything for the fish.She spent $87 in fish supplies.Then we go to the pet store and there are puppies there.I said to her...."ya know what? I'd rather get another dog instead of a fish" So we did! It was one of those discision that should have been thought through a bit more b/c when I got into the truck, I felt stomach sick.I was thinking....what have I done!? You can't flush a dog down the tolit!:)
He seems to be doing o.k. I don't think he as been taken from his mom to long b/c he as been chasing our other dog around alllll day.I would have thought he would have been scared of Chico b/c he is so big.
Anyway,new addiction to the family.I think DH really likes him.

I managed to do a 55 min run.A friend of mine stopped over and she didn't leave until 4 and I had to be at work 6:30.Hopefully I will get some weights in tomorrow.
Have a good evening,
Lori:)
 
Awwww, Lori, that's so great that you got another dog. I'd love a dog. But we'll wait and see. When we adopted our cat from the SPCA last year, her papers said "no dogs" on them. She was a completely different cat then than she is now so maybe would be more receptive to a dog, and my daughter would just LOVE a dog, but I'm not sure yet.

It's so depressing here today. The Weather Network is saying we're going to get 20 cm of snow. BUT Environment Canada is saying that it's going to be more rain than snow. I'm going to choose to believe EC:) I know it will be gone quickly, but it's just so GROSS. It was almost all gone and now there's more. YUCKx(

Last night I did Step Blast and KPC abs. I was going to run this morning, but I guess that's out the window. I'm not sure what to do now. *sigh*
 
Good Morning folks!!!

Today ws the end of my self-enforced rerun of Phase 1 on SBD. Well,
I didn't lose as much as I had hoped I would doing Phase 1 again. Here are my stats:

Weight loss - 3 pounds
Inches lost:
Arms - .25
Neck - stayed the same
Chest - .5
Waist - 1
Hips - .5
Legs (thighs) - 1
Not bad - I had just hoped for more weight to go away. I didn't cheat so I'm not really sure what happened. Maybe my body got used to it and I need to shake things up. I'm starting P90X tomorrow with 3 more added cardio, so hopefully that will help me along!

The clothes look and feel really different - I was sure I had lost more. But I am pleased with the stats. I've lost 11.5 inches arond my thighs since January! WOOHOO!!!! And hey, at least I lost something! (of course this is morning logic - I was really upset about it last night! LOL) :)

Lisa- GREAT results!!! I understand your frustration, but from my standpoint, I think it is awesome.

We had 3 puppies, all boys. We wanted a girl for ourselves, but we are still going to keep one. We will sell the other two. I have a friend who wants one, and a friend of my dad's said he might like one too. This has been quite an adventure. It is like having a new baby. I was up w/ her 5 times last night. When they eat the afterbirth, they get loose stools, so out she would go every 1/2 hour. My husband let her out once too. Plus, I keep having to change and wash the bedding because she is getting yucky stuff on it. And she is just the little mother hen!!! She does not want to leave those puppies for one second!! When she does, she comes back and sniffs and smells them. It is crazy. I gave her a bath this morning because she was yucky, and she did not like that at all. She tried to jump out of the tub.

I am going to do the UB/LB Pyramid premix today.

Shelley -

I had to throw in my belated birthday greetings! And that has to be a typo - there's no way you're 41.....31 maybe, but 41....I don't think so. You look awesome!

Lisa - Good for you! Those are awesome results!

Went for a 3 mile walk w/the dogs this morning and I'm off soon to go rollerblading with my gf....hope I don't break anything vital.

I'm going to follow the February cardio blast rotation this month since fat loss is my #1 goal right now.

Have a super weekend, everyone!

Hi Gals,
I had a good nap. I don't know why but DH is on a Donair kick lately.What a humm when I walked through the doors today.I couldn't even crawl in bed with him.I told him if he keeps it up, he is gonna be living a lonely life.Instead, I stayed up until 9, cleaned a bit and crawled into my daugthers bed.I slept until 12:30.I had a coupld of naps at work last night.Tomorrow morning, I should sleep longer though b/c I have alot to do Sunday night.

I am going to workout now.I think I may do something from the HC Extreme DVD but first I am gonna do one of the GS workouts.I am in the mood for a good workout today.Its to bad I didn't feel this way all the time.
The puppy is doing good.We were driving around town with him all afternoon and showing him off to friends.
Last night one of the guys I work with went downtown and brought me back a 1/4 pounder from McDonalds.I was devistated!I had to eat it, I couldn't say no.Someone does something nice like that,you can't shoot them down.I ate 1/2 of it (and the friesx( )but it was yummy:9 Its the first burger I have had from there in 1 1/2 years.But I was hungry and when I got up today I did have another pound gone.I should work all night shifts.I manage to lose weight b/c I work alnight and don't eat and then the next day I am sleeping all day.Night shifts are hard on the system though.
I will check back tonight when I get into work!
Lori:)
