X'ers ****WEDNESDAY***

Hi ladies!!! I'm sure most of you have exciting V-day evenings planned...except for TraciX who is all done with her fun for the day!!!!

TraciX...LOLOLOL...Thanks for giving me a big laugh for the day...Probably my only one...except for a story I'll share later in my post...DD and I decided not to go out to dinner...we'll go tomorrow night instead.

Tracy...Have fun with another snow day...Get to the grocery and get lots of healthy food...We are moving to North Carolina (where I'm from originally) as soon as we can unload this house!

Lea..What can I say...she's a weird kid...She doesn't even like hamburgers or cheese! She is actually eating chicken nuggets now...but they're baked, so how bad can they be?!

Sandra....Sounds like you had a great workout! I did KM the other day and really enjoyed it as a bit of a break from Kenpo. Congrats on all of your gains!

Okay...here is my funny story of the day.....DD had a playdate this afternoon. After dragging out all of the toys they could fit on the floor, they apparently got bored. So they decided to put foamy hand soap all over their hair. They were covered in hand soap!!! So I tell them I'll be up in 5 minutes to clean them up...They come back down stairs and have stuck toilet paper on their heads ( I think in attempt to clean up)....Needless to say the TP is completely clumped in wads on their heads. I had to put both of them in the shower to clean them off!! Then, of course, I have to explain this to playmate's mother....Between the dog and the child I wonder what else can happen!

Happy day to all!

LMAO! TraciX, that's the most X-rated post anyone's ever posted on the X-ers website. LOL! 2 hours?! Seriously?? And you don't have the patience for yoga, huh? BTW, make sure you clean off the door gym....(we all know why you have it in the bedroom).

LeaX - post the wedding video?! :eek: :eek: SO not gonna happen :) I accidentally bought half the Masters Series when I ordered the original P90 for DH. I suppose I'll try them out one day, but I have to admit I'm ready to take a different approach for a while (CATHE!).

TracyX - are you eating fewer carbs these days, or just working extra hard and needing more than usual? I've found the minute I cut back on the carbs (to lean out a bit), my brain stops functioning. I cannot think and lose weight at the same time. How uncoordinated is that? See, the beauty about doing those 3 core workouts without a multiple disk player is you get a break while the disks load. You don't need a break? What are you - a robot?? (Or a P90X grad?) :)

Tonight's V-day dinner was milk chocolate chip buttermilk flaxseed pancakes, smothered in canola margarine and maple syrup. Paired with turkey sausage and fresh cut watermelon. Served with a tall glass of 1% milk. How's that for a blend of clean/treat eating? I feel slightly buzzed. Remind me how happy I felt today, when I complain about how tired and crappy I feel tomorrow. And since I won't be, ah, riding a bicycle for 2 hours tonight, this was an acceptable substitution ;)

See you tomorrow!

Completed Kick Max warm-up and combinations. Then did Back & Biceps X and ARX. Actually had to go down in weight on my biceps this week a teensy bit. Not sure why?? No biggie, I still felt like I worked as hard.

Sorry I don't have time for personals tonight. Gotta help my hubby make dinner!

Maybe it's just me...but I can't remember the last time I "rode my bike" for 2 hours!!!

Howdy all!

You guys are all cracking me up about Traci and her new VD present. And the door gym thing is priceless, Sandra! 2 hours! Good Lord!

Thanks for all the concern for my Dad. I called him a couple times and then left work early to visit him. He'll stay in overnight again (at least), has a fever, chills, basically a bad cold last night, but also has COPD, not enough oxygen in his blood so am really glad he's in the hospital for them to keep an eye on him. Mom said it just came on him lickety split.

No Garage Session tonite due to a few things, (garage owner was sick, other people working, Valentine's Day) but I got out on my bike outside and did Cardio Coach #5, which was a real good one! I'm way energized now too. Once I lowered my heart rate ranges I've had much more fun with these workouts as they don't drain me so much and they are still very effective.

Did Cathe Coremax #2 and then worked DH on the Bowflex tonite. When I get done here, will finish watching "The Game", starring Michael Douglass and Sean Penn. Looks like a good one.

Tracy, PUB abs is a good one. I have a hard time with the pikes after doing bicep work. Sometimes I just do the bicep work first so I don't have to do it right before the abwork. Don't push it with that tendon. When I started doing lat pulldowns on the Bowflex, I would get this "icy" feeling down the tendons in my forearms. That has gone away, but it scared me to push harder.

Lea, I'm definitely going to do the Gym Styles like you did, supersetting, works great. Bet you will be feeling that burn tomorrow.

Debra, your snow shoveling doesn't sound like any fun to me, but a good workout for the back and arms anyway. Painting more may be this weekend, but not sure what's on the schedule yet for sure. I'm always excited when anyone gets a new bike. I just love riding so much.

Sandra, yep, I live near my folks, probably about 4 miles away from them, which I love. Your DD must really be something. Parent Daycare is hilarious, and exercise equipment if they want to use them. Sounds like a really good time going to be happening. Hope the cops don't show up.

Traci, thanks so much for the concern and care for my Dad. I sure appreciate it. Sounds like a wild time was had today re: payment for the new bike, and it involved the door gym too? I don't think any amount of YogaX would prepare me for some of those moves.

Hi Monica, glad your workout was a burner today.

Wish I could stick around but it's getting late and DH and I are going to watch the movie.

See you all tomorrow morning,

Jeanette
