RE:
Good morning,
I couldn't believe it when I logged on a few minutes ago and there was NO Xers post yet! It's almost 8:30am here! The Traci/y's are sorely missed! Thanks for having enough initiative to start this, Laurie, even without your coffee! I was waiting to finish mine before typing. I don't trust myself to type coherently before my first dose of caffeine!
LaurieX - You're so good with typing out all those workout details. You make Barry's series sound very interesting, and I like the idea that most (all?) of the strength conditioning is done with body weight. What is the website for this series? I'm curious enough to check it out.
JeanetteX - I didn't have time to write much yesterday, but wanted to let you know that your story about going through the window was a crack up! And yes! Thank heavens you work out, so you can start a career as a professional house-theft! Doesn't Joe Cocker have a song about how she came in through the bathroom window? LMAO! And I bust a gut when I read LeaX's comment about how wonderful it is that you can fit through a teeny-tiny window! Talk about a rather odd Non-Scale Victory (a WW term, I think). And only an LA-er like LeaX would be vain enough to take it personally if she wasn't able to fit through a window ;-) Your measurements are smaller now, and you're feeling/looking leaner? Awesome!!!! How much cardio are you doing, per week? And are the Slim Series weights similar to Cathe's endurance work, like in ME, PH & CTX?
LeaX - when you go clothes shopping, has anyone ever asked you your "window size"? Kind of gives a whole new meaning to the term "window shopping." Okay, okay, I'll give it a rest now. How's Crystal? Have you gotten the hang of giving her the IV drip yet? That really doesn't sound easy.....
DebraX - so how was KickMax? I'm glad you managed to squeeze it in! Have a great weekend with DH and DD! I take it you have no desire to move to Russia with him?
TraciX - the road trip sold out in 3 MINUTES!!! There are a ton of people who will be disappointed, like you. Hang in there. It's probably not as fun as we imagine it will be
And for the money it costs, I can buy a whole bunch of videos! I just wish Cathe would hurry up and announce the next round of filming. If she sticks with her original plans, she'll be doing that 4-day cardio/weights split, and a SS step cardio. I'm looking forward to both of those more than anything else she's done since the BodyBlast series.
Yesterday my plan was to do B&G, no core. But I was exhausted. Thoroughly, completely, every-cell-in-my-body exhausted. I was also starrrrrving. I spent the entire day just waiting for my next meal. I think my workouts from the past week have caught up with me, combined with my 1800 cal/day limit. Obviously I was eating way more in a day than I thought I was! So I decided that I needed a day of rest, especially if I was going to prevent a junk-food binge. As it is, I went to one of those "parties" at a friend's house, where they sell you stuff. It was a Princess House party. Never heard of them before. Of course, I bought stuff because I wanted to help my friend get the hostess gifts, etc. And since it kept me up past my 9pm bedtime, I ended up eating a bit of her snacks: pistachio nuts, cheese & crackers, etc. I didn't go overboard, but I finally filled the hole in my stomach. I feel much, much better today. Energetic. I'm trying to decide on today's workout now. I still want to do Butts 'n Guts, but also want to do some cardio. But I don't want a 2 hour workout. And I would like to do the BG core work, too. What to do? I'm also thinking it would be nice to do a Terminator or HardCore Extreme workout, since I rarely use those. Oh, what to do? Then JeanetteX pipes up that she's getting slimmer on less cardio, and I think maybe I should stick with something lighter. ARGGGGGHHHH!!!! I'll think of something, I'm sure.
Okay, I've typed enough for everyone who's MIA today. Time to go.
Hello to Monica, Stephanie, Tracy and Traci.
Cheers!
