Morning Ladies-
I ended up doing Cathe's 4 Day Split - Kickbox & Legs. I had to modify parts of the cardio on the Rebounder due to my foot and my HR didn't get very elevated. Workout was 1 hour 19 minutes and I burned 500 calories. The music is not the best in the leg workout and the Kickbox. It was sort of generic sounding. Cathe was in top form as usual. I also did Yoga Practice with Lynn Watkins - Seated & Twisting section 28".
I'm not sure what I'm going to do with my new Cathe's. Not sure I want to do them yet and worry about figuring out how to modify the cardio segments since I don't know them yet and it will be hard to figure out. I might just wait to do them until I get the go ahead on my foot.
Jen - I'm so sorry you were so upset from your appt yesterday. I've had those ultrasounds done before cuz my doctor keeps thinking I might have cancer or something due to my periods occurring twice monthly when I get stressed out. I didn't have a problem with that at all....but the girl doing my procedure was very nice and put me at ease. Were doctors the ones working on you? Sometimes I find doctors to be insensitive to woman's needs and just be like they are doing their job. I know they have to learn to do that and separate emotions from their work....but I never could understand how they do that! Just try to remember that it will be worth it if it actually works and they have to do these sorts of things to prepare for the procedure if they want it to be effective and work, right? I know.....easy for me to say....as I'm not the one going thru it. Don't worry about the Demerol, Valium or whatever you said you've got to take. I've had procedures done with Valium, Demerol and Valium, Demerol and Versid, etc...and it wasn't a big deal for me. ....but then drugs don't affect me that much cuz I'm so hyper. My Mom also has had all of those drugs for various procedures and she's the world's biggest wimp and she had no problem taking any of them either. Darvocet is nothing at all......just like a strong Tylenol IMO. My Mom even took a half of one when she was recovering from her pelvic fracture and she hates taking Tylenol. That should be the least of worries. Just try to go to a mental place when you're going thru the testing and try to keep your mind off of how nervous you are and try not to get upset. I know it's easier said than done.........so I'll quit babbling. I feel for you and wish I could be there to give you a big hug! Hang in there! You CAN DO THIS.....you do Cathe workouts for goodness sakes!! You are a strong woman and you can DO ANYTHING!!! I know you can. Just think how happy you will be when you're pregnant!! Take care and I hope things go smoother in the future.
Yve - did you get your packages from me yet?
Who here likes Iyengar practices? I have another DVD up for grabs. It's an Iyengar practice with Lynn Watkins ....a woman in her early 60's. The music option doesn't work on this DVD (so they are sending me another). Here is what is on it:
Standing Asanas 28"
Sitting Asanas & Twists 28"
BackBends 25"
Inversions 22"
Each section can be done as a practice on it's own or they can be done together. Anyone here want it??? I'd just need a couple bucks for shipping.
