Good Morning Gang:)

I appear to be the last one who posted yesterday so I guess I will make this short:)

I did good on ebay last night. I did exactly what I said I was going to do and bid at the very last minute, I bet I pissed some people off}( }( Needless to say, I got a few Christmas gifts and at a very low price:)

I want to get out for a run today but I haven't checked the weather channel, thats my plan though.

Have a good Monday everyone and I won't be able to check back in until tonight, unless I check in before I go home in a couple of hours.

Lori:)
 
Good Morning girls!:)

well,all the fingers being crossed yesterday worked:7 I got in to my last class...yippee!

I didn't get a chance to check back in yesterday so but it looked like everybody had a good day! I didn't get my walk in,DH didn't want me to walk so I didn't,he was being a baby:eek: I spent most of the weekend doing homework that I've been putting offx( no fun!

Carrie-ive heard of P90X-I have seen info commercials on it too! It does look a bit challenging. I can't afford it right now,but one day? iI would probably break this plateou im in for sure! Im glad your liking it:). Oh,my registration starts today, but I don't think alot of the sudents know that they can also register at midnight on registration day! I remember you saying your were in insurance-thats what iam going to school for-a certification in medical insurance! What kind of insurance are you in?(if you don't mind me asking;-))

Lori-your job sounds pretty exciting! Thanks for crossing your eyes for me yesterday:7 ;) Congrats on the ebay wins!

A GREAT BIG hello to Belinda,Cheryl,Lainie and Cathy!

Have great day,i'll bbl!
 
Hi everyone. I'm still sick, but at least the boys seem o.k. I feel worst in the morning, which is tough since it's the time when I'm busiest.

It's kind of a weird week because Isaac has tomorrow off because of elections--I guess because the school is a polling place or something. So it seems odd to have a regular Monday and then a free Tuesday.

I took the whole weekend off from workouts since I was feeling crummy. I hope to do some step aerobics later, but haven't decided on a particular workout yet. Tomorrow I hope to start the 3-day split from Amy Bento's new Slo-Mo Strength Challenge.

Lori, sounds like you really scored on eBay. I need to finish planning for Christmas. I started my spreadsheet with who I need to buy gifts for, but haven't decided on most of the gifts yet.

Amelia, yay! you got your class--bet that's a big relief.

Hi to Cheryl, Belinda, Carrie, Cathy!

Yay, it's Monday! I am trying a new postive spin on the work week. Let's see if it works?

So yesterday was a pretty demeaning day. We had to take 'before' pictures for P90x. That was humbling. I thought I was in good shape, you know, glancing at myself in clothes. But we took our pics in shorts and sports bras.From all angles. Talk about motivation! Now I really want to do well so I can see a big change in 90 days.

Yesterday was Plyometrics. It's alot of jumping, etc in 30 second blasts. It was a good w/o. I burned 300 cals in 56 mins. That is just slightly less than when I run. I'll take that. Today is shoulders and arms, and abripperx. i may try and sneak in a short cardio if I can.

Amelia--The only way I could to P90x, is b/c my SIL bought it! Which is nice. Good job on the inside scoop on registration. I work in life insurance. Are you going to school for medical coding or transcription?

Lori--good job on fitting your workouts in. It's really windy here today too. Not good for running. What 'presents' did you win on ebay? I love ebay!

Cheryl--I can see where you either love Tony or can't stand him. Right now I am finding him endearing. It's just a nice change from Cathe, and he is pretty cute. So that is nice too. I was teetering on doing the program, but now I am committed.

Cathy--thanks for the advice. That is great you completed p90x!Were you able to do 'doubles'? I have built up my running, and I don't want to lose it, so I was going to incorporate 3 days of running too.

Lainie--are you feeling better?

Belinda--how was your fun family weekend with your sister?

Hi ladies,

I had a lot of fun this weekend! Since I didn't workout this weekend I have to play catch up!

This morning I did GS Legs! I still have to work my Abs and get a 30 min. run in !?? I hope !

Time to get moving her! I am hoping to be able to come back later and catch up with everyone!!!

Take care,
Belinda

Hi, everyone!

Lori, my sons told me some years ago about www.esnipe.com - for just a few pennies it can store your eBay bid and put it in for you at the last 7 seconds. I've used that a lot when I want to make a last second bid. You might want to check it out. I've probably made a few people mad, but it's saved me a bundle }( }( }(

Amelia, sorry you didn't get your walk in. Today's another day! And you'll probably be glad you studied, yes?

Carrie, yes, how humbling. So if you show big progress you'll have to share all the pictures with us, and think how proud you'll be. This shoudl be good.

Belinda, WOW on GS Legs. That's the Cathe workout I love and I hate. Big dread factor, but so proud when you're done. We'll see if you're sore :7 My booty is still feeling the new 4DS LB section from Saturday a.m.

Lainie, sorry you're still feeling crummy. This has really dragged on for you! Bummer stuff. I hope you start feeling better today.

Today I start the Cathe Nov. rotation. HIS/weights today and maybe a 45 min. TM add-on. woo hoo!

Talk to you all later!

Cheryl
 
Hey girls,still no workout for me yet,Im thinking i will do a powerwalk/run on the TM tonight after class! I hope class lets out early tonight so I can get done with it early!

Carrie-Im going for my certification in billing and codeing...And praying I can find a job-quickly! My SIL is a medical biller and she seems to love it-she works at home too! I've also heard the $$ isn't bad either! I can't wait to see your after pics...it may motivate me to do p90

Lainie-Im sending you healing-vibes:)I hope you get to feeling better!

Belinda-Great job with your workout so far:)have fun with your run!

Cheryl-I need to go and find me a cathe rotation,it seemed that my body responded better when I followed one! Im still sore from PH sat too,but unforunately its not a nice sore,its a achy,oochie soreness in my quads. great job with your HIS/Weights-have fun with your run! Oh and thanks for posting that website for ebay...I may have to check that out although I haven't been on ebay in a while,its still a good site!
 
I just finished shoulder/arms, and ab ripper x. It's nice to be done with a w/o in about and hour.

If I have some great strides I will post my before and AFTER pics. Right now I would not post the befores. I would sooner die of shame with those. But, according to beachbody, I am going to see fabulous results!

I have been eating really good the past 3 days, according to the nutrtition plan provided. Right now, it's pretty much low carb/high protein for the first 4 weeks. Then after that, it changes, but I can't remember to what.

Cheryl--I think I have heard of that website--esnipes (what a great name). I will have to use that if I really want something! I was thinking about doing the 4ds split too, b/f p90. Let me know what results you get, I will be interested. Did you see about Ryan Shay in the NYC marathon? So sad.
 
Hello, I wondered if I might join your group? Lori, hello! I have been cruising around the daily check in site for a couple of weeks trying to find a new group to join since our postpartum group has dwindled so much and saw your name here. Nice to see a familiar name and I've really enjoyed sharing our new baby stories;)

I actually am not currently in weight watchers, but I am watching my weight:) does that count?

A little about myself, I am relatively new to Cathe and have really been working out to her dvds since the birth of my son Ryan 10months ago. I have 3 beautiful children and awesome husband and I am a SAHM. I only have a few dvds at this point, BSBF, LIS, LM and have tried the KPC from fittv. My next dvd's are LIC and BM2 (for Christmas). I've been able to shed my extra baby weight and reached my goal weight of 138 (my prepreggo size). I'm trying to stay between 135-140lbs. which is a good weight for my 5ft. 8in frame. My fitness goals are to maintain my weight and tone up allover (especially my core). I have found the Cathe forums to be so inspiring and have learned so much about fitness in the last year thanks to this site and Cathe of course!

Okay, hope to "chat" with you all more and let me know if I can join you ladies:)

Hi Girls:)

I am sooo sleepy! And its only 8 in the evening, I don't think I will be up to late tonight:)

Amelia** Glad to hear you got into your classes. I bet thats a big releif!

Belinda** did you get all those workouts in:eek: ? Sounds like you had a goody planned!

Carrie** I don't think you have anything to be ashamed of. How tall are you? You can't have that much fat to lose being the weight that you are, unless you are 4 feet tall:) Oh I got, 2 Tommy sweaters, 1 Osh Kosh jean jacket, 1 Gymboree Outfit, 1 Old Navy outfit and 1 Sweater from Old Navy...all for under $60!

Cheryl** Thanks for the tip. I kept clicking "refresh" just to make sure I wasn't getting outbid. Someone tried during the last 20 sec but it failed! hehe

Laine** Glad to hear the kiddies are feeling better:) We got snotty noses over this way as well:eek: but you never know if its teeth or the cold!

Stacy!!!** Welcome!! I checked in on the PP thread the other day, was I the only one?? How is everything? How is Ryan? Rylan as mastered the steps as well now and can get up them pretty fast, can't leave him alone for a sec!

Today I did get a 82 mins run in. My legs are a little sore from yesterdays workout. I don't know what I will do tomorrow, depends on the weather.

Lori:)
 
Lori,
Thanks for the warm welcome and it sounds like your little Rylan is doing really well! Can you believe our little guys are 10months old??? Wow!! How is the return to work going? I'm sure it will take a few weeks to adjust for you and Rylan.

The kids and I have been fighting some nasty head colds around here for the last week or so, so my workouts have been light at best. Here's hoping I can get back on track sometime this week! I feel so blah when I can't work out (not a good feeling on top of being sick).

Okay, will check back in with the group tomorrow...
