~*~* Weight Watchers Hump Day ~*~*~

Good Morning Ladies:)

Its almost 8:30 here, I figured someone else would have been here by now! Or prehaps we are doing it at the same time again?:)

I brought my stroller to my moms house for a run but I don't think that will be happening. Its foggy and just doesn't look nice. Its a good thing I brought KM with me just in case:) So I will be doing that one shortly.

I am feeling a little better now. But last night when I went to bed I was trying to convince myself to nurse DS when he woke today and maybe pick up all the feedings that I have ditched over the past few days. But there are two things that still remain. One, I am eventually gonna have to go through this process emotionally anyway so prolonging it won't make much difference. Then if I leave it for when I go back to work I may have a nervous break down b/c I leave him and give up nursing the same time. Two, I don't make enough milk for him anyway. The difference in the weight of his pampers since bottle feeding his crazy and b/c of this he doesn't eat as much baby food. So as hard as it is right now I think its for the best.

Anyway, I hope everyone as a good day. I will probably be able to check in a little bit today. Depending on the weather, DH is going fishing but if that doesn't pan out then we may do something else.

!Hola Chicas!

Hump Day indeed!! I can't wait until TGIF Friday!!! ;) This morning I did the Firm Super Charged Sculpting. It was a nice change of pace. A lighter weight workout; but, effective. I am toying with the idea of purchasing the Transfimrer w/workouts for when I want lighter days. This w/o is from the Transfirmer series. Only catch is I already have one or two dvd's- but I guess I can sell the extra on ebay. This afternoon I want to do a step w/o. I will see. It is suppose to be in the mid 90's today. It is not cooling off below 73 degrees at night! x( I can feel the heat is draining me. Even though I have c/a I have to turn on two fans in the basement when I w/o.

Cheryl- Are you familiar with the Transfirmer series? If so, thumbs up or thumbs down on getting it? I just hate to have another step bench! x( But, I have heard on other forums that the Transfirmer hits your glutes and hips deeper that a regular step. What is you opinion?

Lori- Sounds like your body is kinda making your decision for you if you are not producing as much milk as DS requires. Take it slow, again, you will make the right decision. Enjoy KM!!

Amelia- How are you this morning? Is that back being good today? :-(

Robin- What workout did you do this AM? Enjoy!

Big hello to Nancy, Kali and {{{{Belinda}}}}!!

I hope I didn't forget anyone. :-(

BBL!
 
Good Morning girls!

Im up early today,don't know why,its not like i can workout or anything;-) lol!

Lori~Im sorry your having a hard time with the transition of bfing! ya know,when theres something that im battleing,emoitionly,I tend to want to kind of "get it over with quickly" so I don't have to put myself through it anymore! I didn't breast feed so I can't even imagine what your going through(if I had it to do over agian,i would have). Hugs to you:)How was KM?

KIM-LOL at the post of you KPCrunching your podiatist yesterday! I hate needles too! How is your cousin doing, I hope ok! class was the same old song and dance last night,the teacher is a great teacher,just likes to talk:).And the whole time hes telling one of his "stories" im thinking "ok,i could be at home w/kids right now....move it along teach:,LOL!;-)P.S when im searching on blockbuster for workouts i think i go under "aerobics" next time i'll try going under sports...thanks for the tip!

Robin-How are doing today? Sorry to hear about your knee pain.I think mine started last year and just grew proggresivly worse! I haven't had it seen about yet,will thursday though!

Cheryl-Hows your day going? I hope well!

Kali-I hope you get a chance to check in today!

Nancy-Sending you hugs.I hope your day is a good one!

Belinda-Please keep us posted! Im praying for you and your family!

guess im going to go check out the Aug. rotation now,maybe i can start it soon! Im debating on walking this afternoon,just a lite stroll around the neiborhood. Well have a good day ladies!
 
Hey Girls,

Im still sitting around drinking my coffee:) Not sure if I told you this but my moms runs a b&b so I kind of hide out until all the guest are gone:)

Kim, its a good thing you know whats wrong with your foot now. I don't think attacking anyone with a needle would have been a good idea though;)

Amelia, when is your apt again? Are you working out today? Probably not a good idea hey? I think I am doing better then yesteday. I think there were a few things bothering me yesterday and that was just the icing on the cake....hmmm cake:9

Lori:)
 
Good morning ladies.

Today I did Kim's Kickboxing plus abs. I kept it low impact because I don't want to mess with my knee too touch. the swellen in my knee went down b/c I took RX motrin. I hate meds.
Lori- what time zone do you live in? How long before you go bakc to work?

Kim- I have the transfimers with the two steps. The steps take up a lot of room and you have to rearange the step alot. It's a intermediate w/o and easy. So it would be a good choice for a light day. It's funny that I used to pick up 5# DB for bicepts:7 when I did the firm and I thought it was tough. Sometimes I pull out the fanny lifter Firm w/o when I just want a easy cardio. The one good thing about the Firm is that they always show one instructor doing the low impact version.

Hi Amelia,Cheryl, Nancy what do you have planned for today?
 
Workout done for today. Although I was thinking I may go for a run later when I get home. I enjoy kickboxing..sometimes! Took a while to get my HR up so it felt like I was watching time until the blast started.

Robin, good idea. Take it easy. I live in Canada. I told the girls the other day that I know I am 1.5 hours ahead of New York and 2.5 hours ahead of Texas..so we can figure out our times differences from there. I also said "don't ask where the 30 mins comes from" hahaha

Hi, everyone -

Kim, I have a transfirmer. I actually consider it less stable than the Cathe high step. A lot of the YaYa gals agree, and I even hear some of them call it "Mr. Tippy". I gave up on mine entirely and I use them for step stools in my closet.

I don't think there's anything the Transfirmer can do for your glutes that you don't get better on the high step movements Cathe provides. If you like those workouts, though, I would definitely do them with the high step and not the transfirmer bench. So you could probably get the workouts on eBay or swap without the transfirmer.

Lori, glad you got in your workout!!!

Amelia, I hope your back is at least feeling better.

Robin, sounds like you're having a nice day.

I am about to launch into StepWorks. Very tired today - will have to push back B&G again til tomorrow.

Have a great morning, everyone -
Cheryl
 
Lori-NAAA,im not working out today...considering a lite stroll around the neiborhood later,but nothing intense!My apt. is thursday evening and i can't wait!I just hope hes a good doc. like I heard! Im glad your feeling a little better! Did I hear you mention Cake?mmmmmmmm....cake sounds delish ;-) Chocolate cake,ok...i better stop it or I'll be hunting some,LOL!

Cheryl-have fun with StepWorks,I hope it gets you re-energized!

Robin-Great workout today,good Idea keeping it low-impact! I also hate meds,I feel like im covering up the problem! I've been taking Ibuphrophen forever it seems like!

MY back is feeling better today but I know the problem is still there! bbl!
 
Robin- I am soooo sorry!!! I just remembered that it was your B-day earlier this week and I meant to post HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!! Please forgive me. Sometimes I read posts and mean to reply or respond to things and just forget. I usually think about them later. Like now....

Amelia- I meant to tell you that the August rotation looks great!!!
;) I think I will be doing that!!

Cheryl and Robin- thanks for the input on the Transfirmer. I even saw on VF some people rig their steps to form the shape of the Transfirmer- looked EXTREMELY dangerous to me. I will just stick with my high step and regular step. I really don't need another workout dvd. I have other low intermediate w/o to use for light days. I think I am addicted to buying w/o dvds. We won't even mention all that I have.

Robin- I love Kim's workouts (except I mentioned b/f that I am not crazy about Kickbox Boot Camp). I hope your knee feels better.

Lori- We have another B-day coming up this week don't we???? ;) What day is it?
 
See... I told y'all I forget!!

Amelia- thanks for asking about my cousin. She had a rough day the other day, but was having a good day yesterday.
 
Kim...TOMORROW! Sweet 29! (that doesn't seem right;) ) I have a feeling I will be eating alot of cake over the next couple of days! Gotta get a goooood run in tomorrow!
 
HAHAHAHAHA......HAHAHA The Man in the Yellow Hat....HAHAHAHA:7 :7 :7

You look great in that dress.

Amelia please be carefull when taking Ibuphrophen...take it with flood, milk, or lots of juice. Sorry about your back.

Kim I'm addicted to ordering DVDs too. This is why I have to budget only two new ones per month. I hate when I get a w/o that not hard enough. So I go to collagevideo and look and look and look, before I buy. I do the same with cathe DVDs.
 
Kim Thanks and no worries I celebrate my b-day all week. Like today I went to the China Buffet with my kids and.....well the China Buffet is no place for clean eating. The only thing they had there healthy was the fruits. Even the bake fish was soaked in BUTTER!

So tommorrow double cardio for me.
 
Hello.........

I hope everybody is doing good!!! I can see from the above that everyone is working out well. Since my week in California, I have only been able to get an upper body and lower body done. I'm planning on running upstairs now to do KPC or whatever strikes me before I put dinner on the table.

It's been depressing around here. Our dog was precious and my kids don't remember life without him. We had him for fourteen years!!! I don't know what it is about a dog that devastates people when something happens to them. We miss him so much!!!!!

Okay, enough crying...............I promise someday I will read all of the personals. I better get to exercising or it's not gonna happen.

Nancy
 
(((((Nancy))))I was in the "Daze" for weeks after my dog died(I think I've mentioned him to you before,Romeo, he did at 12yrs old in the summer of 05').Time is the ONLY thing that helped me. Im so sorry,give it some time...it gets easier!

Lori-HAPPY EARLY BIRTHDAY:) :),birthday cake time!

Hey to the rest of the gang! be back in the morning!
