Xers ~~~ Wednesday ~~~

Tracy,

Save your money. Buy The Bar Method 2 pack, and use a chair with it. I really like it better than Fluidity. The tempo is slower; allowing you time to focus on form. Leonard Burr does a good job with form pointers.

I love having the Fluidity bar to use, but it isn't necessary. You can always find Fluidity dvds on ebay and modify some of the moves that require pulling down on the bar. There's only a couple of moves and stretches that would require placing your weight on the bar. And, those could be substituted for a floor stretch/chin-up bar to target those same muscles.

I used the Bar Method and Fluidity for a month prior to P90X. Also, I was adding in 40 minutes of HIIT walking/jogging on the treadmill. I felt DOMS in my legs and glutes from doing the bar workouts. While I did lose 1/4 inch in my thighs, I wonder if it was because I was losing muscle. My legs weren't as tight or swollen as they were when I did Cathe, Plyo or Legs&Back.

I think form is everything with these workouts. The better your form gets, the harder the workout. I can break a sweat doing them too. Now that I have a heart rate monitor, I'll have to see how high my heart rate gets. I do find that my knees hurt from doing step. However, I don't have any problems with my knees doing any of Tony's P90X or bar workouts. Except, doing KenpoX on carpet makes it difficult to move your feet into proper position, and that makes it harder on the knees.

Hope this helps you decide if it's what you want.
 
Holy Cow Gabby gals…!!!!

I am still pondering todays Sh&A + ARX. My body is very tired and I feel like I haven’t had a rest day in 2 weeks… (I had one Sunday!). If I take today off I will really be shifting things around tho as I have to do Legs & back tomorrow & Yoga Friday due to our being at Bay Friday 7am. I could always do ARX today, Back, Shoulders &Arms tomorrow and Legs + Yoga on Friday at Bay- OH MY WHAT TO DO???? At least I’m not starving today!

Lea X: Congrats on getting the X completed on schedule this morning! You are my motivation this round girl!!! I made a single serving of No Pudge for lunch treat… HOT BROWNIES! OMG I am up to 66 ounces of water today and still feel thirsty. Guess I am dehydrated. Shooting for a gallon + today. I think I’ll order that Oxygen Nutrition Mag.. I’ve been pondering for awhile. WooHoo on being an Auntie!!!! How cool is that! I bet you are everyone’s FUN & COOL Aunt (like me!) I was cracking up- you referenced wanting a DD so badly and I got confused…thought you now wanted a daughter… then I re-read & understood it was a Dunkin Donut !!!! ROFL!

SandraX: Hope I haven’t given you the I Don’t Wanna’s!!! Make the darn scallop sweet potatoes! Easter is once a year!! Snow Snow GO AWAY! You must be the chilliest woman on the planet… We had a cold front come in today…Its down to 72 as I type…brrrrrrrrrrrrrr

LAURIE X: Give DD ahug from this Xer! I bet those quads are super duper sore today. Not like ya can NOT use your legs all day. Fingers crossed for your girlfriend… We women seem to go thru so much in our lives. How wonderful about your parents visit…. Keeping positive thoughts for a safe trip.

TRACY: What a workout!!! I swear NOTHING keeps you down woman. I feel like a weenie next to you. So have you had any FUN on your vacation so far or has it all been same old same old? I changed to 3 days of doubles next week… I may just play which double days by ear and see what my body is up to. I just really feel like I pushed WAY to far yesterday.

Shoot- Got a phone call coming in that I gotta take…. BBL for everyone I missed so far!
 
Hi there ladies...Better late than never! So I haven't gotten to my workout either today...so no personals now...Just wanted to pop by and let you guys know that I am alive! I was going to do CM, but now I am planning on Drill Max...the upper body and cardio premix...I am running short on time...which is a little crazy since I really haven't gotten anything accomplished today and still have lots to do! I will do a power circuit on my normal plain cardio day tomorrow so that I get some extra leg work in...and will probably add in the Push/Pull legs I left out a couple of days ago.

Sorry no time for personals...but know that I am here in crazy cold Illinois cheering you guys on!

Traci X - Wow!!! A gallon plus!! It MUST be really humid there. You do what your body is telling you to do. Don't want to get hurt this early in the game do you? Order the Nutrition Mag. There are two out that I know of and you definately want to order the fall 2006 version with the grey cover and 7 healthy easy to make dinners for you. This one is my bible!!! I love it!! I am going to try making the garlic chicken out of the Fat Loss mag. Heck, I might just subscribe to Oxygen just for the recipes because they are so darn good. Is it bad that I want a DD instead of a DD?????:p Well, I hope that you had a fantastic phone call. Can't wait for yoga tomorrow. Are you leaving for the bay tomorrow:(?

Hello,

Okay, Shoulders & Arms and ARX are done. Very, very good workout. The lower body is enjoying the break, although I would love to find time for a mild yoga or stretch session. My calves and hamstrings are talking to me from yesterday's workout. I flirted with the same weight loads I used the last time I did SA. Had to go down a smidge in a few places, particularly on the second round, but I'm happy with everything. I guess since I didn't have as long a break as a few of you, I've still retained some strength. Also, my forearms didn't feel on the verge of exploding at any time during this workout. Progress!

TraciX - I would suggest that you lace up, hit the workout room, and *start* SA. Keep your expectations very low, and commit yourself to just doing the workout. Heck, just do one round of everything and skip the bonus. Keep your weights light. Just keep pushing play. This workout is all upper body and very little cardio (no push ups!!). Small muscle groups are the only targets. You can do it! Yes you can! In less than 60 minutes, you'll be done!!! Yeah, Easter is once a year, but then there's all those other holidays and excuses for overindulging. Maybe I can make a lightened up version using some kind of reduced-fat cream, or much less of the regular cream. 72 degrees is a cold front for you?? Good thing you can't see my face right now, or hear what I'm saying ;)

LeaX - I put on a long-sleeved shirt that was neglected all winter, and the arms are very snug! I got me some muscle! As I said, it's a good thing tank tops don't have sleeves! Did you also check out the Pete's Tofu 2 Go? I think they called them "Snackables" on the website. They are really, really yummy, especially chopped up in a salad, using the dipping sauce for dressing. The baby loves both the snackables and the dessert tofus. In both cases the tofus are infused with the flavours; not plain tofu with sauce on top. Oh, I bumped my head simply by forgetting that the toilet I was cleaning was underneath a cupboard. D'oh! It really threw me for a while; not painful, just dizzy and forgetful. I know, it's hard to tell the difference, but trust me, I was even worse than usual. Congratulations on becoming an Auntie!!! Yay!!

Wendy - thanks for the clarification on the Jari Love dvd. That helps :) We used to live in an area that gets tremendous thunderstorms in the summer. I actually miss them, now that I've moved to a more moderate climate. I hope your attic is in one piece!! That would be rather scary.

TracyX - he he. I knew you'd find a way to get a workout done. Excellent job! I'm glad the muscle relaxer is feeling so good. And it's a good thing you have a week off to just lie around and....relax. Ooooohhhmmmmmmm. Can you do yoga with this injury?

LaurieX - Two pulled quad muscles?! The coach needs a talking to! That's not acceptable! I hope DD manages the rest of the day okay. Thank heavens I'm not the only one still "enjoying" a winter wonderland. Where do your parents live? Maybe we're in the same weather system.

DebraX - No CircuitMax today? Shucks! Enjoy DrillMax. It's harder than CM you know.....;)

Cheers,
SandraX
 
I haven't decided if I want to follow the eating plan yet, but I was wondering if you are ever allowed "cheat" meals? I know that even on BFFM he recommends eating what you want (in moderation) for one meal once or twice a week so you don't feel completely deprived. I am someone who needs a cheat meal every once in awhile. Does this program allow that?

Katie
 
Hi guys,

Just wanted to swing by and see how everyone is doing these days. I believe I read a post recently in the open discussion forum that several of you were starting up another round of the X this week! That is wonderful!

I was reading today's posts and it sure sounds like every one is working hard! I am so impressed! I have been pretty good about staying on track with workouts, however I really need to get my eating back on track. My tummy has been doing much better so I find myself eating a little bit more junk than I used to!

So I am curious - for those of you starting the X -- are you planning to make any substitutions this time? Sandra was so good the first time through about sticking with the program I remember. I did the first round of Chest & Back yesterday (skipped the second set). I can't do any leg work or cardio these days. I have done something to seriously aggravate my hip?? Not sure what happened, but I am forcing myself to rest it at least one week. It is killing me to rest - especially after reading everything that you guys are doing today!

I hope everyone is well.

Monica
 
Ok I can sneak in a couple more personals then I have to go push play because SANDRA X (who is in cahoots with Tony) said to GO DO IT! Geeeeeez – BTW Ms Sandra were you calling me the B word:eek: ????? I do believe I got that vibe! GREAT JOB getting it done today… Ok Ok Ok … I’ll push play after dinner- its already 430 here!
I ended up mowing both front & back yards so 45 minutes later my leg’s are tired but my brain feels better…

Monica: So nice to see you pop in! I’m so sorry you are having hip issues…sounds like you are still dealing with the X Curse…Maybe it all stops when you spot the VooDoo Doll:eek: ? I’m looking for sure today!

Jeanette: :eek: Have a great visit with your niece & sis today!!!! I just love all this niece talk around here today! Thanks for tips on dealing with climate changes… I hope to one day work as smart as you do so I can build my endurance!

Debra: ROFL about changing to DM! As Sandra said it IS much harder!!! You so silly! Your crazy workout week sounds just like mine! I think I need a cocktail tonight but afraid my Tony will yell at me! :eek:

:eek: Steph: Either I/m blind or you haven’t checked in as of yet. Do hope all is well!

Wendy: I live in Houston TX. MY GOODNESS I’d be freaked out about the storm & house! It reminded me of The Wizard of Oz!!!!:eek: Be careful woman. I’d tell you to move here but then you’d have to face our Hurricanes! Suppose to be 6 majors this year. On Kenpo Sub. The only thing I caution you on is the cardio factor in KPC as produced. Kenpo is magic because of the intensity of the punches & kicks and I found that I cannot come close to that intensity with all the cardio. Try some premixes of Cathes or if you can get a copy of StrikeZone (Janis Saffeil) it’s a good sub. Most of us also use our weighted gloves…. Once you get the intensity into Kenpo it is a killer workout. Just my thoughts. It IS VERY TOUGH to get out of the subbing habit. I do suggest that you do Phase 1 exactly as written or you’ll never see the exact magic of the program. The phases I didn’t sub I saw incredible results- subbed weeks just minimal.

Katie: So Did It Come Yet????? :eek: LOL on cheat meals…. No Tony isn’t nearly as forgiving on food plan as BFL or BFFM. You can follow it and then have your free meals when ya want…. As a VERY SMART Xer ONCE SAID TO ME: “There is no rotation police that come to your door!”… I also doubt there is a Food Cop waiting down the street! Funny how Tony makes us all feel so awful for fudging! ---Did I just say FUDGE????:eek:

:eek: Debfer: Hi girl! Glad you are looking at nutrition aspect…it is a critical factor with X – not just for weight purposes but rather for the building of strength and being able to really bring it each week. Good JOB with Plyo!!

Teddygirl: Whats the word from doc????? Fingers still crossed!:eek:


LEA: I just tried to order my mags & their checkout website is down……I’ll keep trying! Thanks so much for all the info- We leave for bay at 7am Friday as I don’t want to fight the traffic Thursday night…. Taking LapTop tho! :eek:



OK- I THINK I’m all caught up!!! You all lead eventful lives don’t ya???
 
Xers,

Traci - I hope that you get your workout in. There is such a fine line between too much and pushing yourself. I had some of my best days when my mind was not feeling up to it.

Wendy - I'm with Traci on sticking to the X rotation at least for the first month. You can't get the real magic if you sub. JMO.

Deb & Katie - I think that the diet is important, but I didn't follow it exactly. I did cut carbs some and increased protien and I got good results. I lost belly fat that I'd had for a long time. I really think that you have to find something that works for you, both mentally and physcially, otherwise it's useless and will never become a way of life.

Sandra - Great job on the weights today and not loosing any strength. I'm happy that I can still do multiple pushups, I won't lift anything heavier than 15s right now. Yoga is a sad option. The hamstring and glute is still tight, but I have half of my flexibility back.

Monica - Sorry about the hip, mine is the back. We can commiserate if you want!


Tracy
 
Hi There!

I did Shoulders & Arms today, but skipped all of the tricep work. Can't do ARX until my hip is healed, so I just did some ab work on my own that wouldn't hurt the hip.


TRACY -- I'm so sorry to hear about your back problems. Back problems can be really painful, please take good care of yourself (I'm sure you are). How long have you been having problems as I haven't been checking in for a while.

TRACI -- You are so funny!! I will have to look for the voo doo doll -- maybe that will be the end of my X curse! I see that you noted you aren't subbing any of the P90X workouts for the first month -- does that include Yoga X?? I tried "Yoga for Happiness" recently and loved it, however I think that I may have overdone it and triggered my hip problems with this DVD.

Monica
 
I am sosooooooo happy to report that I just completed Shoulders & Arms at 7:30pm!!! WooHooo Happy Dance!!! Ultra Special Dreya kinda thank you to Sassy Sandra for makin me do it! As all the old xers know- Thats what we do here... We make ya just push play unless you are on the injured list.... Also the great news is that I lifted heavier on every single set than my ending round 1 weights... I actually shocked myself- once I realized that about half way thru I was a bull for part two. Did every dang rep! THANKS SANDRA- I'm back in game!:7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7
 
Monica! Great to "see" you! So sorry your hip is on the injured list. What's with everyone? We finish the rotation, then proceed to fall apart. Kind of like buying a used car, and having it hold together only long enough for the test drive. So, are you doing the P90X workouts to maintain? Yes, I was firm about sticking with the program in Round 1. This time I'm blending with Cathe. I need variety!

TraciX - I'm so happy you're giving SA a whirl. I only hope it turns out to be good, or you'll be throwing those comments right back at me <ducking> :p . Silly girl, you weren't supposed to cut the lawn today! It's a lower body rest day! You're cracking me up about the food police and the f-word. I have a carton of caramel-fudge vanilla ice cream in the freezer. I can't believe it's still there....

Katie - no, no cheat day in the P90X nutrition manual. That's what makes it so hard to follow, IMO. Many of us were attempting to stick with it over the Christmas holidays, and I think that's where we all got derailed. If you can stick with their plan for the full 90 days then you're a stronger woman than I. This round I'm testing the theory that just sticking with 1800 nutritional calories a day will be sufficient. If you're an average sized woman, you will probably find that the P90X manual will suggest that you eat 1800 cals/day.

Wendy - I was going to make the exact same suggestion as the two Tracy/i's did about sticking with the program as written for at least the first phase. I wrote it, then deleted it because I thought, "how, then, do I explain why I'm subbing left, right, and centre?" So I won't try to explain it, but just say, "Stick with the program!!". :) I stuck with it for the whole 90 days last time, and am glad I did.

TracyX - Geez, what kind of an injury won't even let you do yoga!! It's not fair!! I agree that some days the mind and the body are not on the same page, and some days it's better to ignore the mind. Oh, good news! I finally finished revising my thesis! I'm ready to email it all to my supervisor. After I do that, I need to start pulling together all my references. Yikes....

Okay, my meals for the day:

Breakfast:
steel cut oatmeal & banana,
turkey breast deli meat
coffee

Pre workout snack:
Power Bar Harvest Bar - double dipped chocolate

Lunch:
ww tortilla with natural peanut butter and raisins,
salad (mixed greens, tomato, balsamic low-fat salad dressing),
1 cup of V-Go juice
green tea

Snack:
apple
5oz 1% milk
1/3 oatmeal raisin cookie

Supper:
beef & spinach hamburger patty on a ww bun
ketchup, mustard, ff miracle whip, tomato, lettuce
steamed kale
baked acorn squash

I'm somewhere around 1650 calories. I'm not hungry right now, but if the urge hits at bedtime, I'll have a 100-150 calorie snack. Maybe one of those dessert tofus and a few nuts.

I apparently went nuts this afternoon and decided to invite our neightbours for dinner on Sunday. What a dufus I am. Now I have to cook a full Easter dinner of ham with pineapple, scalloped potatoes, honey-mint carrots, rolls, and apple crisp & ice cream. Then the very next day I'm cooking Easter dinner for my childhood friend and her family. We're having turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, squash, mandarin-almond salad, rolls, and birthday cake & ice cream for her daughter. HELP!!!!! Oh, and does anyone have a good apple crisp recipe?

Cheers,
DufusX
 
YAY!!!!! <climbing out from under the desk>. I'm sooooo happy for you TraciX!!! You brought it amazingly well! Higher than your last round?? That's phenomenal. I'll bet your arms are too fried to just press play again, huh? :) I wonder if that's why they stick ARX onto the end of every weight workout? Oh, and did you do ARX? <ducking again>.

SandraX
 
Okay...I just lost 45 minutes worth of posts...and besides the fact than I am incredibly irritated...I am also out of time for the evening. Sorry...Just know that I had very eloquent and humorous replies for everyone...I was almost done when I lost it!

Good Evening Chatty Xers!!!

Again, let me say, I love this check-in! You all are so knowledgeable, motivational and supportive. Just had to remind you guys if you forgot!

Dh and I are taking full advantage of our rest day and did nothing! Instead, we made photocopies of the "write it down" lists, bought a blender for smoothies, and went to Longhorn for dinner. They messed up my order twice and I ended up getting my steak dinner for free. I was impressed since I didn't mind or complain. I asked if they would cut off a small slice of Chocolate Stampede cake and put the rest in a box for my girls. They brought me out a HUGE slice of cake with whipped cream and ended up putting half of a full sized cake in the box and 3 scoops of icecream in another container. My girls had a sugar rush this evening!

Laurie: Were your parents able to make it out of their house and to yours? How's your dd doing tonight? Great news about your dh getting the bike. Hope it warms up while his interest is high.

Lea: I could FedEx you an extra large DD, but it might be cold by the time it reaches you in sunny California. I LOVE DD coffee too. In fact, I refuse to make my own coffee anymore. I'm friends with ALL the workers. I bake them cookies for Christmas even though they're Hindu. LOL Phil jokes that there's a picture of me in every DD with "Number 1 Customer" boldly printed underneath. Don't worry, you guys aren't getting rid of me that easy! I'm in it to the end. I have to see what's going to work for my meso-fatty body of mine! LOL Congrats on being a new auntie. Will you be giving your step sister your boy's hand-me-downs or are you keeping them just in case? ;-)

SandraX: How long has it been since you finished your last round of the X? Are you crazy! If you are, can I come to your house for Easter too? LOL I don't have a good apple crisp recipe, but I have an awesome apple streudal pie recipe that calls for a cream cheese mixture and pecan topping. YUM! Eat it and add an additional cardio on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday... :7

Katie: I don't follow the meal plan as written. I have tried to follow it as a guideline by reducing my carbs and increasing my protein. It's tough since I'm a carb junkie!

Monica: This is my dh and my first time doing the X. I flirt around with the idea of subbing. As you can see, everyone is encouraging me not to sub. So, it's Tony all the way for me now. I might add in some cardio during week 5, but I doubt I will since I'm a lazy Xer!

TraciX: Yeah!!!! About time!!! And, see! You were able to go heavier! I do have to admonish you. You're getting as bad as me by working out late. Now stop that. I need someone to put on a pedestal! Keep it up and you'll be demoted to a toadstool! ;-) I LOVE Texas. Dh and I visited the San Antonio area a couple of years ago. It was like walking into a huge church. Everyone is so friendly! They say things like, "Well aren't you just the cutest little thang I've seen all day." :) Dh even had the best Philly cheesesteak at the Gruene Tea Room. Amazing! Unfortunately, I could never live there. I was going through major DD withdrawal! The first thing dh and I went when we got of the airplane in Philly after dark was drive to Greys Ferry for a cup of joe. Greys Ferry is one of the worst places in Philly too!

Tracy/i and Sandra and make that Lea too (I'm sure deep down she agrees with you grads.): Thanks for the sub warning. My mantra for the next 83 days: I WILL NOT SUB. I WILL NOT SUB! Okay, it might be for the next 28 days. Baby Steps :) But, I'll do my best to stick with the program.

Sweet Dreams!
Wendy
I WILL NOT SUB ;)
 
Wendy - YES!!! Send me a DD and quick!!! I need my fix. I don't care if it is all sugar. Anywho, want to say sorry for giving you wrong info. Been doing that all day. Must be the junk food withdrawls or something. Yes, stick with the X program. It's grueling, but so worth it. My muscles are all ready starting to pop out after today. In fact, checked out a new doctor today and she said that it looks like we won't be seeing much of you cause you look so healthy. She was amazed. YAY!!! Stick with the check in though. These gals keep me sane. And plus, you write so good. I love good writers. Gives me some inspiration.

Debra - All I have to say is x( x( x( x( x( x( x( . I so feel for you. Take a rest and we will chat with you tomorrow.

Traci X - YAY! ^^^^^^555's girl. Thank you for listening to Sergeant Sandra and not me. You go girl!!! Did your order go through yet? I might order some more recipes......

Sandra - Where is your tofu dessert? I am so hungry. How is the head.

Time to get kiddies to bed. Until later gals.

Lea
 
Good evening everyone!

You gals are sure an energetic bunch! Proud to be on this checkin with y'all! I visited with my niece and her 1 week old baby boy after work today. It was so nice having the time with her. It's her first baby. His name is Logan and he's precious. DH is still outside tinkering with the Ford Ranger. Should be in the house in a bit and then we'll watch (yawn) a Sherlock Holmes movie. He loves those. I fall asleep. Tomorrow is a hill climb bike ride and I'm really looking forward to it. Feeling really good cardio wise and leg strength wise so looking to push tomorrow. Will probably do an easier paced group ride on Sunday because I have my first 12 mile time trial on Tuesday after work. Don't want tired legs for that at all.

Debra, I have to do my workouts in the morning. We only have one TV and I hate to take it from DH at night so morning it is for me. I did find myself doing my ab workout in the evening along with the computer or even with the TV as it didn't take that long. I have to admit, I think I only once did the entire YogaX DVD. Most of the time, I subbed it with Bryan Kest or Eoin Finn or Shiva Rea. I am still doing yoga one day a week and in fact, tomorrow is my yoga day. Works out good because I ride my bike tomorrow night. That way, my legs aren't too tired. I love the yoga just because it's relaxing for me. I don't even that much care about the power part. That's just me. I still check on you guys in Haterville, just do not have the time to post personals. This one is hard enough to keep up with!!! Sorry you lost your long post. I know the feeling, grrrr.

Oh, Teddygirl! I cannot believe that happened to you! You poor thing. I can't imagine falling down 8 stairs. How are you doing? Did the dr. check you out? How is the shoulder?

Lea, my 2 Jari Love's came today, woohoo! Long hair, I soooo wanted long hair but really don't look good with it. Mine is fairly thick and it would just lay flat and heavy on my head. I don't think I've ever had it past that icky inbetween stage. Short works for me. Girl, you are going to be soooo ripped when you get done with this rotation. I'm rooting for you and all the Xers! Congrats on the new arrival! Baby boys are nice, of course, but a little baby girl would be special too. You having another one?

Wendy, a massage from your DH? You are one lucky lady! How heavenly! My DH gives really good massages too, though it's been a little while for me. I gave him one recently so it looks like he owes me one. How is the house? Did the lightning hit the house? Hope it didn't knock out any electrical appliances. Your DH will get better at L&B. I really liked that one. Love the "sneaky lunges". I bought weighted gloves 1#ers to do KenpoX with. I enjoyed that workout immensely, until like maybe the last week, when I think all of us are glad it's the end. I live in northeastern California, it's high desert country. We're on the edge of the desert and edge of national forest country so best of both worlds. Millions of acres of public land right nearby.

Katie, still no P90X? Most of the workouts are under 60 minutes, plus AbX, which is around 16 minutes or so (can't remember). It's a doable program for me timewise. My limit is usually 60 minutes, unless it's a weekend.

Sandra, Memorial Day is the last weekend in May of every year. This year it is the 28th. Usually DH and I go camping (love, love, love to go camping). GR1000 is one of Jari Love's DVD's. I'm enjoying more of a Slim Series type rotation for now and my body seems to like it too. I just got her Get Ripped and Ripped to the Core DVD's (came by clipper around the Horn today) and I think Debra has Slim & Lean for me too. I'll have to check out that tofu (sweetened of course). Sorry you bumped your head. I did that too last weekend in the laundry area. Didn't see the shelf at just above eye level. Ouch!

Tracy, sounds like you got some good upper body work in and I'm sooo glad the muscle relaxers are helping. Want you back well soon.

Laurie, what brand of bike did your DH get? Where do you live that it's still bad out? What are the odds of both quads being pulled? Hope she is starting to feel better. Do you have some faires coming up soon? I love your pictures. Where are your folks driving from?

Debra, hope you get your workout in today. The only reason I'm so regular is I do it at 5:00 a.m. everyday. Nothing interferes with that time.

Traci, sorry you were feeling bad today. I read that Sandra cheered you on and you triumphed big time!!! WAY TO GO! I had a few workouts like that too where I just didn't feel like it, but after a while I did and the competitiveness in myself took over and I had an awesome workout.

Hi Monica! Glad you checked in. Keep doing so cuz we miss you! Sorry your hip is bothering you.

Got to go watch SH now. ZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
