Good Morning,
Today was IMAX 2. I just bought a black fitted dress for my neices wedding this weekend and I don't want my abs to stick out. So I'll probably do an ab workout tonight, tomorrow, and an ab marathon Saturday morning-They seem to help hold it in:) -Especially bootcamp core work!

Here's my question, I had a nephew get married in May and I wore a long solid black dress with spaghetti straps.
I went shopping for something different and ended up buying one that is also solid black and long but wraps around the neck(if that makes sense). I also have a long brown velvet dress I could wear. Problem is my husband's suit is black so should I just wear the new black dress or is it too similar to the one I wore in May? Please help.

Thanks, Wendy
 
I am always happy to wear something new Wendy, but knowing me I would try them all on and decide which one looked the best!!

I do like that ab marathon....today is just a cardio day so I am doing an 8 mile tempo run which will be hard enough....enjoy the workouts ladies...:)...Carole
 
Good morning ladies,

I am so proud of myself I've pushed really hard to complete Boot Camp in its entirety.:p, with just a few modifications here & there. But I did it.

Oh the joys of working out with Cathe.

Good morning everyone!

Wendy - go with the one that you like the best; people won't even remember the wedding last May.

Carole - have a great run!

Haydee - high five! That's a great accomplishment!

Stayfit - what?? Straying from Cathe? ;-) Do you find these instructers work you as hard as Cathe does?

This morning I decided that I needed to change things up in my life - drastically. I am not happy with the way things have been going lately. So, the first major change was to switch my workout time from 7:45am to 5:30am (out of bed at 5am). I did the KPC/LG 82minute premix, and loved it. It's a great workout - not nearly as hard as my CK/LL combo I did on Tuesday.

Have a great day everyone!
Sandra
 
Wendy, same as Sandra.

I think I'm coming down with a cold:( so easy today -- 20 min bike and PP.
Hope I won't be sick! Mari
 
These instructors are not as hard as cathe does.My arms still sore after the kicbox ctx, cardio kicks and split upper body ctx I did on Tuesday but it is not the reason to do not cathe workout.I am angry.My parents say I am obsessed with cathe and I have told to them that it is not a cathe day but maybe I was telling lies.I am going to do the ctx kickbox after but not to much intense because they think I am overtrained and I do not want they hear me working out without breath because they are going to know I am working out with cathe.

Good morning everyone!

I hope you don't mind if I join in! Today I am doing Bootcamp/ME combo.....hope I have enough energy to do it by the time I get home, this rainy weather makes me want to dive under a blanket with a good book and some hot cocoax( LOL, but I'm sure Cathe will throw some energy my way:+

Have a wonderful day!
 
Hi Ladies,

I'm with Carole today. I'm doing cardio by runnig an 8 mile tempo run. I usually do this every Thursday.

Josie
 
Evening All,

Did a 5K run today which was quite enough as I was on my feet all day. Didn't even have a lunch break.

I'm bursting to tell you: something so unbelievably nice happened today. Over a month ago the CEO of my company asked me to set up an exhibition of a photographer/artist who made these incredible photographs of the Gaudi buildings in Barcelona. Today he came to pick up his photographs to take them to another exhibition. Guess what!? He gave me this beautiful photograph framed in one of his own hand made frames :D I couldn't believe it:D I got all red faced and so totally lost for words. Thank you was all I could say. I'm so happy and delighted with this stunning picture! Then he suddenly remembered there was a picture of the Parc Guell that I liked really very much and he said: I'll make sure you'll get that one as well next week.... I mean, how do you thank someone for a gift like that? And you should know, I only get presents once a year at my birthday from 3 or 4 friends... To get such a gift for no special reason...

I'm still smiling :) :) :)

Have a nice day all,

Dutchie42
 
That was really nice Dutchie, you must have made a great impression on the man. Enjoy your gift.

I did PSSL&A today. Lunchtime workout for me. NO MORE CANDY CORN IN THE HOUSE!!! YAY!!! and I pray that I don't buy anymore!!!!!

Anybody here get gasy from soy products? And if so what do you do to counteract the gasiness?

Thanks:D
 
Dutchie I am happy for you.Have an unexpected present is awesome and the Parc Guell is in my country, in Barcelona.

Hi everyone,

Haven't been able to get online for a couple of days. Or it threw me off after 5 or so minutes. I missed my Cathe pals!

Today is Power Hour, which I love, then Bootcamp. I've started my holiday & tomorrow evening we leave for the beach. Of course our beautiful weather is now cold & rainy. Hopefully we'll get a couple of sunny days.

Wendy, wear whatever you like the best on you! (Nobody cares what your husband is wearing anyway. LOL)

Haydee, congrats on Bootcamp! In my opinion, a real triumph.

Hey Sandra, that's a heckuva change in your workout time. I gather you enjoyed it? I'm okay once I get out of bed. That's the hard part for me! Especially when it's cold.

Speaking of which, hope you don't have a cold Mari...maybe you'll feel better tomorrow. Get some rest if you can.

Sandy I felt the same way today...just wanted to stay in my warm bed with my warm dog & read! Unfortunately, I had to start digging out my winter clothes & launder some of them to take to the beach. Which I seriously think should count as an extra workout!

Josie & Carole, hope you had a great run! That's what I plan to do at the beach. Not sure how I feel about it, but I'm going to do it.

Dutchie what a very nice gesture for your artist to make. I can imagine how pleased you must feel. Apparently you made quite an impression on him! We should all remember too how easy it is to make somebody happy with a little effort. Enjoy your artwork!

Hi Annette...PS is one of my faves. Never could do candy corn though. My downfall this week was Neccos. YUM! Knew I shouldn't have bought them!

Mariangeles, I wish I knew how to type your name correctly with my computer. I've tried! Anyway, I don't think you're over-trained from what I've read on your workout posts. Also, you have other interests...your work of course, music, movies...many more I'm sure. Are you eating ok? Your parents are probably worried because they don't understand the fun we all have with Cathe & each other. I'm sure they'll come around when they see you are happy & fit & still enjoy other aspects of your life.

Sorry to be so wordy...I TOLD you I missed you guys!

Ruth:)
 
Hi Ruth,

Thank you for responding to each one of us. It make me feel special.
Have agreat vacation.

Josie
 
Thanks Josie...you made me feel special too. I'm sure we'll have a great time but ACK! No computer...no VCR...no DVD Player!

I'm pretty sure I'll have Cathe withdrawal.

>Hi everyone,
>>
>Today is Power Hour, which I love, then Bootcamp.

SERIOUSLY?! I mean - this workout is *possible*?? Or are you completely mechanical, and insert a new pair of arm and leg muscles between workouts? I can't imagine you would be able to walk the next day (or day after that, or day after...)

>Hey Sandra, that's a heckuva change in your workout time. I
>gather you enjoyed it? I'm okay once I get out of bed.
>That's the hard part for me! Especially when it's cold.

Yes, it was a big change, and I made the decision at 11pm the night before, as I was tossing and turning, stressed out about life, and not getting any sleep. I ended up with only about 4 solid hours of sleep, because of my anxiety, so got off to a rocky start. But once the coffee kicked in, my body didn't seem to notice the difference and it went extremely well. I will be retiring very early tonight, to make sure I get enough sleep to face MIC in the morning.

Have a great vacation!
Sandra
 
Thanks Sandra! I often do that turning & tossing thing...I've had insomnia since I was a teenager. I'm sure things will go better for you as you go along.

As for my workouts...that's only possible because I'm not working today/tonight. On my days off I usually push myself pretty hard, but NOooo, I can't do them one right after the other! I did PH this morning & Bootcamp this evening. (Also I know I'm not going to be doing any weight training or Cathe cardio for over a week, which is making me REALLY anxious! I probably chose those 2 because of that.)

Good luck with those changes you're making...starting is the hard part when making a change, so you're doing great already!

Ruth:)
 
Ruth you message is very nice.Thank you.You have written my name OK.I think my parents are jealous because I am always talking about cathe and how much I love her workouts but of course I have other interests.I hope they undestand soon the joy that work out with cathe gives to me.

Hi Mariángeles,

I'm sure you're right, parents are funny sometimes. (I can say that as I'm a parent! ;-) )

Thanks for letting me off light regarding your name, but thanks to Carole, I know how to do it now! (As you can see).

I love your name, it's so pretty & "musical" sounding. Wish mine was.

Take care & ENJOY Cathe for me too! See you in a week.

Ruth:)

(The lean mean beach-running machine? LOL Trying to pump myself up to run cause I HATE running! I already can't wait to do Cathe again!)
