````Weight Watchers```` for Thu Nov 08th 2007

Good Morning Fellow Cathelets:7

Belinda,my heart skipped a beat as soon as I read the news,Im so excited! That is exactly what I need! Im also wondering how much it will be:+I read that it will be 10 dvd's:eek: . However how much it is,the filming won't be done until after feburary so I can save my money for a while!!!Have fun with km

Doing a happy dance:7:7:7

ok,back to earth,LOL


So,today workout will be some type of step and then BBC legs! Hey to everybody:)!bbl
 
Good Morning:)

At work again, after today I am off for 4 days:) Although, Im not to sure DS misses me:-( Yesterday when I went home he totally ignored me until I picked him up, then he was excited. Prehaps he was preoccupied or mad at me;)

Yes, I read a little bit about the series yesterday. Is it just going to be all weight workouts?

Belinda** Have a good workout!!!

Amelia** Start saving your quarters! hehe Prehaps when they come out the Canadian dollar will be even better!}( Then Ill get a really good price.:)


Last night when I got home I did BM2, Bootcamp premix and PH abs. It felt good but that workout isn't heart pounding.Even though it as more cardio then the orginal BC, it doesn't seem to be enough to me.
Annnnnnd.....I ordered the new workouts last night:) I paid $20 for UPS Priority mail so Im thinking it will be here in a weeks time maybe? If I don't get to use them before next weekend, then I can always preview them at work:)

Ill be back later!!!
Lori:)
 
Hi girls. Another day that I just don't feel like shopping. How weird is that?

Could be because I woke up still feeling crummy. I'd had PMS but last night TTOM finally started, so that doesn't help.

Then Ewan got into a bottle of children's Claritin and I had to call Poison Control. It looks like he didn't get too much and they said he would be fine but to keep an eye on him. I should give him extra fluids to dilute it. It has a child-proof cap but maybe it hadn't been closed all the way. I usually keep medicine on a high shelf but happened to leave that on the counter after giving some to Isaac. Ewan also managed to eat one of my birth control pills last year. :eek:

Yesterday I did just a premix from Kelly Coffey-Meyer's new Cardio Kick Step-Boxing video. I liked it a lot more than her original step-boxing workout (which I ended up selling). Today I plan to do Legs from Amy's Slo-Mo Strength Challenge. I might do a shorter premix and do a bit more step aerobics since my cardio was brief yesterday (and since I'm a bit rusty on lower body work and don't want to kill myself with it).

Belinda, have fun with Kick Max! (You've probably already done it by now.) KM was my very first Cathe workout! I remember stopping to stare open-mouthed when she got to the Kickbox/Bootcamp challenge part. I had to just do jumping jacks and stuff to try to follow along. That's when I knew I was in for something different with Cathe!

I now have all of the DVDs Cathe offers, but I'm actually considering selling a few. http://www.millan.net/minimations/smileys/surprisedf.gif I never thought I'd do that but there are some I just literally never use so they are just collecting dust. I wonder if I shouldn't sell them so I can afford something else I'd use more (like the barbell I want).

Amelia, thanks for mentioning the blog update yesterday! I hadn't a clue before I saw your message. I'm pretty excited about this system. I might do well with that kind of structure if I can stick with it--and if anyone could make me stick with it, it would be Cathe.

Lori, I bet your DS was just punishing you a bit for being gone. He'll get used to it! (Kids are like dogs in some ways, aren't they?)

Carrie, I really liked KCM's new Step-boxing workout, but I guess I already said that up^^^ there.

Stacey, your rotation right now sounds like mine--I'm just trying to fit in all my new stuff but get a certain amount of weight training and cardio in! My favorite Cathe workouts tend to be step workouts--like Rhythmic Step and Step Blast. I also like the Pyramids and Gym Styles for weight training. I tend to like upper/lower splits or 3-day splits. Sometimes I enjoy a good circuit (like LIC) or total body weights (favorite is MM). So I guess I like a variety. I'm not a big fan of the Imaxes, though I have them--probably because I'm weak!

Hello to Cheryl--how's work going? It always seems to keep you busy!

Hi to Cathy if you drop by!

I think I need some more coffee now. http://www.millan.net/minimations/smileys/lotsocoffee.gif

Good morning ladies! Today I am off, and I am very happy about this! I do work tomorrow, but it's nice to have a day off, just because.

Yesterday's workout was legs,back and ab ripperx. My DH is going to put in a pull up bar in our garage/gym so we can get to work on our pull ups. The nice thing about p90x, is they give you options. If you don't have a pull up bar, there are band exercises. I am really feelin' the DOMS today. Cathe's new w/o seem so much like p90x! I wonder how much they will cost.

Today's w/o is KenpoX. I previewed it last night, it's kickboxing -ish. I am pretty sore, so I am not sure how this will go. I may try and take my DS and dog out for a run too.

Cheryl--hope you enjoyed your workout. The Nov rotation did have 2 rest days a week. Way to add on to it! I only like to take 1day off a week.

Belinda--KM! Yay--that is next on my list. Do you do the entire w/o? I have heard there are some killer leg drills on that.

Amelia--how is BBC going? Are you feeling the DOMS? I forgot to say good job on your inches lost. I still go by the scale everyday, but I did have to measure myself for p90x. Any loss is a good loss. Did you get your protein powder?

Stacey-sounds like you are right on track with your workouts. I totally admire people that have more than one kid. I am overwhelmed with one! Three! Hat's off to you. I understand about the shower thing, people think SAHM has got it easy, they have no idea.

Lori--I have never done the BM2 bootcamp PM. I am surprised it doesn't get your HR up. That is a killer w/o. So you broke down and ordered the new w/o! I will be interested to hear what your thoughts are when you get them. Enjoy work and your loooong weekend. Yay!

Lainie--Yikes about the clariton scare. It makes me grateful that DS is still small and not mobile. Very scary, glad DS is ok. I will have to check out the KCM wo. Do you like the slo mo Bento? What w/o don't you use of Cathe's? Just curious, I like to hear people opinions.

Hey girls

I think Im going to take the day off from working out,I did get alot of cleaning done:)

Lori-I haven't done the BM2 BC either,only the premix were she repeats the step combos(forget the name)Enjoy your weekend!

Lainie-I remember when my ds was a baby he was on some kind of coughing medicine and both DH and I gave him a dose of medicine(we didn't comunicate)and it is VERY scary,Im glad little Ewan won't be affected by the clariton.

Carrie-I like BBC,but don't LOVE it;-). It was worth the price,I don't use the cardio,just the weights to mix things up a bit! The only workout that gives me doms from bbc is the leggs one!I've never used protein powder in the past but I could'nt resist the thread called" revisting BSN protien powder" an I ordered some x( Great job on your workout yesterday,Im also wondering the price of Cathe's new series(im thinking its gonna be alot...10dvds:eek: )

bbl:)
 
Hi, everyone!!

Belinda, love that KickMax!!!

Lori, I tried the BM2 BC premix only once - I actually liked the classic BC better where everything rotates after just one minute - which is putting me in the mood to do it again.
Funny about DS taking a second to warm back up to you. I'm sure it's perfectly normal.

Amelia, have a wonderful day!! I'm so excited too about the new series. I will definitely pre-order. I sure wish it were available right at the first of the year. That would be awesome.

Carrie, Lainie - I hope you both have a wonderful day!

I did LIS/shoulders/calves/abs this morning. Just right.

Happy Thursday, everyone!

Cheryl
 
Hi girls,

I just got done with Kick Max! That one is a killer!

Amelia enjoy your rest day!

Cheryl how do you like the Nov.07 rotation? My new DVD's ended up in El Paso! Arrrr!! One day I will get my hands on them!LOL!!!

Carrie I did the entire w/o 75 min.!!!:) :) Yes, leg drills are a killer! Enjoy your day off!!

Stacy hope you found the perfect workout for you today!

Laine I am so glad you son is ok! Very scary!!

Lori great job yesterday! Hope you enjoy your weekend!

My best to all.
Belinda
 
Hey Girly Girls:)

1.5 hours to go:) I ran home to see my little man and he was happy to see me this time:) He also cried when I left so I had to go back and sneak out the 2nd time around.

Laine** Glad to hear Ewan is o.k. I think you have a little ticket on your hands! I also hear ya on the workouts I don't use. I hardly ever use the Body Blast series and never the really older one. I never did get DOMS from the BB series so I rarely use them.I mostly use the Intensity series, the Gym Styles and the newest ones. I find I hang on to them though b/c I know the minute I give them up, Ill probably end up wanting to do a rotation that uses them! SO thats why I hang on to all of my workouts.

Amelia** I guess you deserve a rest day!;) Cleaning is considered a workout as far as I am concerned.

Carrie** Who takes care of the baby while you are working? Do you still have to get up for feedings in the night time? I thought about that when I was bf'ing DS...thinking how hard it would be to have to wake up 2-3 x's a night and then go to work in the morning.

Cheryl** Yeah BM2 premix is a good workout but there are longer breaks in there and it doesn't really keep my HR up. It was a good workout non the less and I am glad that I did it.

DH as hockey tonight at 8 which is a great time for me to workout:) Im not sure what I will do though. I had a late lunch so maybe when DS goes to bed, Ill start my workout.

BBL!
Lori:)
 
Thought I would pop in, now that I have time since I am home.

Did KenpoX this afternoon. Pretty fun workout. Was about 57 mins, and I burned 300 cals. I'll take it. It's been such a nice day, not having to worry about rushing to work.

Lori--my mom watches DS when I am at work 4 days, and then my MIL watches him on Fridays. If for some reason they can't, my SIL watches him. She works nights/nurse. So, right now, no daycare or sitters. That was my goal, as long as I HAVE to work.

I have supper made and everything, and I have eaten quite clean today. The first part of the 4 week rotation is lots of protein, 5 servings/day. I thought that would be no problem, but it's tough to get all that in some days.

Carrie
 
Hey girls,my protein powder came,it taste pretty good! Im only going to use it when I do a heavy weight workout,so not everyday!

I get excited whenever I get something new that is involved with my workout craziness and I have to tell you guys,lol. Im the only person in my entire family(with the exception of a newphew)that works out,so nobody really understands the excitement that comes with new stuff.-DH acts like he does to please me;-)

ok,have a good night!
 
Hi All!
Well, very slow getting around to posting today as my headcold has actually gotten worse:( GRRRRR! I SO want to be over this so I can feel good and work out again.

Sounds like you all had some great workouts today and I am very curious to hear your thoughts on the 4ds workouts. Do you like it more or less than last years series? Or, is it just totally different? I'm intrigued by the new STS system Cathe announced, especially once the cardio ones come out.

Okay, will check back in tomorrow;)
