Hi Tracy! Short cardio to you is probably a 10 mile interval run with dog!
Today is Plyo x for me- probably 1 round only as my legs are really stiff and the fact that I just dont want to do an hour of Plyo!
Off to catch up on yesterday:7

Slacker? Good Lord woman if you're a slacker then I am legally DEAD! You just have your priorities in place my dear. You get a lot done but you dont obsess about any of it... I aspire to you so stop with the bashing OK? :* Arent you constantly amazed by all the actual exercises that we cant/shouldnt do with an injured shoulder? For some reaon my arm is not doing well at all this week... seems like the constant ache is back and I am waking up all night long because I am in discomfort. FRUSTRATED to no end!x( ABSOLUTELY wire-less internet @ home is the ONLY way to go. Actually in a few years I doubt anything else will exist. A Triathalon sounds like just the ticket to light the fire! Sure wish I had any desire at all to do that... I'll keep looking for something to ignite me!

A 40 minute run is a great workout! I bet at minute 35 you are just beginning to get your tail in workin' tho... at 35 min mark- I'm thinkin- "Are we done yet" :+
TRACY X
Hope those legs appreciate you and how you allow them to rest once in awhile!}( The 4DS Double Upper wasnt a major deal...remember I am not going as heavy as Cathe + I omit Pushups & Tricep Dips... that actually makes it a FUN W/o for me!:+
NICOLE X
You'll be just fine my dear! Go back to your basics of GOOD nutrition- avoid drastic measures and remember that during times like you have had comfort food is not necessarily a bad thing. 10#s isnt all fat- you know 2-4 is pure bloat from the excess & foreign food so really you have about 5#s to lose. Gone before the Turkey comes out of the oven. :*

Oh SHUCKS on the DR! I wish we simply had GYN's here that didnt also do babies! Having no children but a busy life I am usually pretty ticked off to go an hour into the Medical Center- park a mile away only to find my Dr delivering babies... I say have them at home ladies! TOUGHEN UP!!!! :+ ... Seriously tho- you absolutely need to rule out something serious with no ttom - if its hormonal great(??) but you need to make sure its not more serious. *jumps off soap box*:*

Good morning,
Have an early start at work today so I'm an hour ahead. Today was 4DS Kickbox and then Legs/Core. Good workout, but the kickbox is not all that exciting, but then again a fan of it I am not. Maybe get a bike ride in after work.
Traci, darn that shoulder. So sorry about the ache. My elbow doesn't ache, but it is stiff, need to stretch it more. I have to even modify how I pick up a barbell. It's just certain positions that bother it. I'd like to not do Halloween but DH likes it. I told him he can hand out the candy. Of course, every time the doorbell rings, the dogs go nuts. The houses out where we live are spread out (3 acre parcels), so not many kids come here as they can go into town and have easier pickings. We might get 10 all night.
Tracy, bet you are enjoying the time to run outside while you can. Do you use the eliptical much? Reserving it for winter when it's too bad to get outside?
Got to go. Doing my visit of the conservation camp today. Will be nice to get out of the office. They are making steak and shrimp for lunch up there. Small portions, small portions, small portions.... My weight is coming down with the cleaner eating. Not clean eating, just cleaner.

Happy Halloween (and Wednesday) Xers!
Sorry to be MIA yesterday, but I got very sucked into homeschooling and didn't get to the computer all day. We had a long science lesson on cells (and yes, Wendy, we'll be making a jello model on Friday) and had a long art lesson with my friend, too. Today I'm breaking out a new (for me) workout: Step Sweatfest by Tracey Staehle. I bought all her first set when it was new, but I was rather uninspired. I bought Step Sweatfest and Cardio Sweatfest out of her second set, but I never did get to trying the Step one. I hope it's not too dancy, I was a little intimidated by the preview I'll also probably tack on some Eoin, too. Then back to 4DS tomorrow. I met Tracey at the RT and she was very nice. I just haven't "clicked" with her style on camera, though. We'll see. Did anyone get her latest stuff?
Wendy -- Yup, Mike was very annoyed at the PSU/OSU game. They ended up leaving early. They hate going to late games b/c of all the drunk people. Oh, well. You're smart to do the ATM thing for your trip. It's easier and your bank will give you a fair exchange rate. I love your blog about The Crazy Asian, lol.
Jeanette -- ^5 on those awesome test results!!
Sandra -- YAY YAY YAY!! I'm so glad your new workouts are finally at your house!! I agree with you about the HIS hitch-kick... Even the 2nd time I did the workout and got the step down, it still felt awkward and weird. I hope you get your coreo straightened out next time
Nicole -- SB is one of my favorites! What fun! I love SM2 for when my back is tight. Those circles with the ball feel so good! I wouldn't worry about those 7#, either. It sounds like something's not right and it's probably water weight or something.
Tracy -- I didn't know you were so close! We were in Falls Church.
Swifty -- I hear ya on the frost. We, too, have had the heater on every morning so far this week. Fall is finally here!
Hi to everyone else! I hope you all have a great day!

Good morning
This morning, I did Drill Max as plan first time doing this workout It is a good functional workout. Tonight, I’ll be doing an hour jog & abs.
I need to step up my game, if I want too move the lbs. I need lots and lots and lots and LOTS of water to flush fat, starting today. My goal is to drink a gallon a day. This morning I drank my usually 32oz came to work and filled up my 48oz bottle, will finish that before I leave today, while on treadie this evening, I will drink another 32oz for a total of 112ozs 16oz from goal I get that in too
I workout pretty hard but if my water intake, isn't in order it’s a losing battle, right! With me drinking that much water I’m guarantee a 2lb or more weigh lost a week.

Good Morning Ladies,
We all slept in this morning. Grandmom is feeding the girls chocolate chip pancakes and orange slices. My, if she keeps this up, they might think this is normal!}(
I brought my step, 4DS, and Eoin. I might try HIS out for the first time later tonight.
Gotta start teaching. Be back later for personals.
Ballistic Hugs to All!!!!

Hi all! Happy Halloween!!!!!!! Sorry I never made it back yesterday, but after sleeping the morning away, I had to get some errands done...which took me til I had to pick up the diva from school...Then I had some chores around the house to do...and then I decided to move some furniture around and create an actual office since I am going to need a place to study anatomy and then I finally exercised around 6:30 last night...then had to get the diva some dinner and then it was...called BFF to make sure she got home okay and then watched a couple of tv shows...and by 10 I was back in bed! DD is out of school today and tomorrow for teacher conferences and of course, we have trick or treating tonight. My back is really tweaky today...probably because my masseuse moved. I guess I need to try another one at my massage place.
I got some new dvds yesterday and I did Rodney Yee's power yoga. I really enjoyed it. He is certainly not like Bryan or my beloved Eoin. He is very straight forward and not very touchy feely, but I was able to do some things I hadn't before..He starts out in kind of prep moves and leads you to the stronger poses and I really felt like I got a lot out of it. Although, there are not enough hip opening poses for me. It is definitely a dvd for those who know the names of all the poses....he doesn't go into a lot of explanation as to what the pose is ahead of time. He does give some good pointers on form, though. I will do cardio of some sort today.

#######################################################
.....Traci.....I'm here! I'm here! With my jammies on and a diet coke in my hand...No coffee for this girl! I don't blame you for not wanting to do an hour of PyloX...one of my least favorites. I guess no clients tonight because of the holiday. Sorry you and Sandy had to come home early from the bay...I bet your dogs would just go nuts with the ghosts and goblins out tonight!
....Tracy...I am sure your short cardio will twice as long as my regular cardio!
.....Jeanette.....Not a KB fan, hunh? I didn't use to like it, but it has grown on me since Kenpo. Hope you get that bike ride in tonight. Sounds like you have a yummy lunch planned! I am sure you will be a good girl. You must get wireless! I sit on my comfy chair and watch tv while I chat with you gals in the evening. I would never get on the computer if I had to be in a certain room of the house. Once you go wireless, you'll never go back! Congrats on you test!!! Only 2 more days until the facial and massage...I am sue you will feel like a noodle after.
......Swifty...Sorry to hear the Dr appt was canceled...Pain in the a$$!! We had frost yesterday and this morning down here in NC...I am so glad to actually have some fall weather. It has been way too hot here for way too long. It is still warming up to about 70 during the days, though. Have fun working out!
......Teddygirl....Sounds like you are going to be in the bathroom a lot!
.....Carol.....Good luck with the new dvds. I have the hardest time doing step with anyone besides Cathe. I am just so used to her cuing that it is really difficult for me to follow someone else. I have tried a few others, but end up getting frustrated and quitting and putting in Cathe instead.
.....Lea.....I bet you are having a load of fun with your boys today!
....Laurie....It took me a long time with RS, too. I think I will get the 3rd combo down if I just take my time with it. I was in a hurry the other day though. Hope your girls are feeling better....and I hope you don't catch it! Spray them down with sanitizer. I'm sure you guys had a great time at the banquet last night. Does eldest DD have anything else she is planning on participating in now that XCountry is over?
....Sandra....Good luck on a poopless workout today. Gotta hate those loose pull-ups! Thanks for keeping it down while I was napping yesterday. I felt guilty since I didn't take DD to a haunted trail or anything like that...but at least I carved pumpkins...LOL! DD gave me a guilt trip yesterday when I picked her up from school about not sticking around for the costume parade. Oh, well. I was a much nicer mommy last night since I got that nap in! And, yes, my "boy toy" has met DD and she really likes him. He is really good with her. I also found out the other day that XDH has been dating a bit, so I have no more guilt feelings!
....Wendy....I will take a look at your blog later on today...Yes, my BFF slept just fine and made it home in one piece. I tend to wake up in the middle of the night...and then I can't get back to sleep. Joy, joy. My DD would love to be at your MIL's house this morning!
....Nicole.....Those pounds will come off once you can get back to your normal routine. It's funny, though, how fast they come on and how slow they are to leave! Don't make yourself crazy trying to lose them too quick. I am so glad that you and your family made it through the fires safely. I have made a decision that it is not my responsibility to tell XDH about my dating. If he hasn't figured it out, too bad. Also, there are plenty of friends who will let him know. My only hurdle now is telling him about the lawyer....which again, I would think he would have figured out, but men can be a little dense sometimes. Car is fixed. BFF has met my "boy toy" (as Sandra calls him) before, but he came over to visit Monday night while she was here. Bum is fine, back is achy. I think that catches me up on your questions...LOL!
....Cheryl....A 40 minute run is plenty, my dear!
Well...I think that catches me up for now. Hope everyone has a fun Halloween!

Jeanette: Thank you for the compliment
Cheryl: a 40 minute run, that works Nice job! Don’t worry your pretty little head, I’m not going to burn out, feeling good and getting plenty of rest.
Tracie: Sorry your shoulder is starting too bother you again, that sucks. I spoke to someone at BOE so far I’m working, next tuesday.
Tracey: It sure was a killer workout left me feeling very accomplished. My biggest problem is doing upper body splits, I HATE breaking my workout up like that, I get a much better workout when I do a complete upperbody, I just prefer it. With MIS upper body developed good and fast, I think I’m going back too full body once more :7

Loved the BI/Tri plus BC yesterday. I was able to match my bicep/tricep weight that I used in P90X, so I'm really a happy camper. This will be the first time that I have had a chance to attempt the KB cardio. Wonder how my shoulders will like the workout.
Oldest DD's banquet yesterday was a good time. The food was brought in by Fazoli's and it was :9 . (Italian) She recieved her varsity letter, her numbers (which was 11, now that is scarry), and four awards. Let me see if I remember what they are. Freshman awards where Most Valuable and Most Spirited. Her team awards where Rookie of the Year and I think it was Most Improved. So she had a good night overall, and is now wanting DH and I to get her a lettermans jacket to put all these recognititions on. :7 :7 One of her coaches is not coming back next year, and she was a bit disapointed in that. The head coach was a bit misty when he was telling his runners this news. Seems like the whole coaching staff was well liked by the whole team.
Traci, The girls do seem to be a bit better today. It still amazes me how fast they bounce back vs adults. Hope you enjoy Plyox. I haven't attempted that one since the last round of the X. But I plan on putting it in my next rotation. I plan on doing a 4DS rotation after the LGI8 is over. We had our trick-or-treaters at our door on Saturday night, so we will have a quiet night tonight. But I still have some candy left. I have been giving myself one piece, and am glad that they are the mini's. :9
Jeanette, Sounds like we are doing the same workout today. I am a huge KB fan so I'm sure I will like this workout alot. If you remember correctly I even liked a Denise Austin KB workout. And it's likablility was because it was KB, and not because DA was the instructor. :7 :7 :7 Have a great time being out of the office today.
Swifty, We didn't have frost this morning, but we have had some on Sun & Mon. Have fun with KenpoX. Love that workout.
TG, Hope you get your goal of a gallon of water into your body today. When my parents where down this weekend my DF was having some problems, and I told him he needs to get more water into his body. He said well then I have to go to the bathroom so much. I said ya at first you do, but it will help regulate your body. My DM was thanking me for mentioning how much water he needed. By Sunday he had a big bottle that he kept refilling with water.
Carol, Have fun with Step Sweatfest. I don't have that one, because I am scarred of other instructors step. I still don't quite get all of Cathe's moves down pat.
Wendy, Oh my DD's love Chocolate Chip pancakes. They want me to make them all the time.
Sandra, Yep Fazoli's is actually fast food Italian. It isn't bad, and it was only $7/person. No Catholic here, we are Lutheran so that is probably why we don't do the name thing. As far as the deadly sins I don't remember them all either. But I still remember that movie Se7en! I think that was the first movie that Gwyneth Paltrow was in. I don't know if I could ever watch that one again. Very scarry. Ok your DD walking around with poo almost had me on the floor crying. :7 :7 :7 Oh how I remember those days.
Nicole, Ya on the back! Those 7 lbs will be gone before ya know it. Two games in one week. Oh the fun of running around. There was a story in the news here about a coach taking a 12 year old by the face mask and throwing him on the ground. Just because the boy made an illegal hit on his son. OK this guy was a teacher also. Watch those coaches. ;-)
Tracy, I wish that I could find some trails that are around my house. I have to run on pavement or when I can I run in the ditch. Most of them are mowed and not very deep. But yes it is very hard to run with snow on the trails. And those Xcountry skiers don't like my footprints on their trails.
Have a fun Halloween,
Laurie

Goooooooooooood morning!
Tracy, I like the "Wonderful Wednesday" title. It's classic.
Traci, I'm so glad I gave you a few belly laughs today. Laughter is the best medicine, isn't it? Send a stiff shot of it to that PITA shoulder of yours. I'm getting really annoyed at your shoulder, as it's not being cooperative at all. Maybe you need to try Swift Amy's solution and whack it again.
I've got to jump in the shower real quick, then go grocery shopping, with the poop-collecting toddler, no less. This afternoon I'm going to try to carve the pumpkins. Of course, permanent markers are on my shopping list, just in case.
This morning I did 4DS Kickbox. Good workout! When I previewed these workouts, one thing that comes shining through is Cathe's grace and fluidity. That's especially evident in this workout. Brenda and Jai are doing a great job in the background, but Cathe's got a level of movement that I think you have to be born with.
The leg weight work was really good. New stuff, no low-end pulses, NO FLOORWORK!!!! No dread factor with this workout. The core was good, too. Short, effective.
I'll come back and finish personals this afternoon. Promise!!!!!!
Oh, Wendy, those are all Canadian tv shows, with the exception of Margret's Museum. MM stars Helena Bonham Carter, was filmed in Halifax, and is a co-British movie production. It's very good; highly recommended.

Hey ladies!!
Sounds like everyone is handing in there!
I hope that everyone has nice plans for tonight..mine??? Is sending DH out to handing out the candy!}( He's bailed on me the last 2 years and I find that I do NOT enjoy doing it, so I told him last week that this year it was going to be all him!
Yesterday was the double cardio from LIS/HIS....again....super fun! Today is weights and I am probably going to head to the gym for them because they have a squat rack. I squat heavier than I can lift safely over my head, so last week, I had DH add plates after I got the BB on my shoulders, but I have the time, so I will probably head to the gym.
Peanut is fitting in just fine! He's as goofy as the other cats! They are slowly getting used to him being around and trying to play...all except Baby. She's still being very miffed about her place being usurped. I guess that I'd be more worried if the cats themselves knew what the pecking order was before they tried to assert it onto Peanut!;-)
Off so wander around and see what else is going one!
Hugs!!!
