Hey! How was your weekend? What's new? All is good here. We're busy figuring out all the trip logistics (getting the ticket to the phone, cashless system, the rail tickets...it feels endless!) Otherwise, I'm reading a mystery novel set in Ireland by Tana French, working out with Caroline...

Wow! You do have a houseful and a lot on your plate. It's nice though-you get to see your kids and granddaughters and that's worth all the chaos. Have you had your cortisol level checked? I think you are under a lot of stress with your job and keeping everything in order at home. The weight...

Glad you could escape and relax a bit. I can't believe school starts in two weeks for your granddaughters! Although I think it would be a good idea to have year around school to help kids not lose the rhythm of studying. It would help parents too with having to find child care all summer. My...

I hope you are having a nice, relaxing time in the mountains! I have discovered youtube channels and am pumped to try some of the workouts. They have a ton of total body workouts. Do you ever use any of these? Rowing is total body so I'm not surprised your legs are sore! It's really hot...

Up in muscle and down in fat! You are getting stronger for sure. Way to go! A friend of mine here has lost 30 pounds recently. She's doing this plan where you eat every two hours (about 100 calories) and then eat one meal a day. She eats between 800 and 1K a day. She eats no gluten as a...

Well, I'm sorry to say that DH doesn't want me to travel without him! I'll work on him though it might not be for a while that I can go. I was thinking we should meet in the midwest -somewhere in the middle. Maybe Nashville? Or, I would love to see Mt. Rushmore some time (Bucket list). Or...

Awesome personal best numbers! DS2 does those at his gym, too. Way to go! I have gone part time! This is the second week. I work Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. It is wonderful! I have my own office now and am completely out of the petty drama in the back. I can "visit" with the...

I just hope they are available in DVD form and not only streaming.

Testosterone! Wow. What specialty physician are you seeing-endocrinolgy? It sounds fascinating. Did they measure your estrogen as well? I am looking forward to hearing how your plan works. I just started using an app and tracking my food intake. It is so hard to get enough protein. I have...

40 #! Do they know how much you can squat and deadlift? I was glad to read your bones are good, but you must have a ton of muscle to be able to lift 114#. I loaded up my barbell on Sunday and did Slow and Heavy legs. I only had 50 lbs on and had to have help getting off after I was done with...

I had an interesting meeting this week. A 72 year old lady came to the clinic and of course getting everyone's weight the second we meet always brings comments about losing weight. Turned out she recently bought the Boss Bands from Cathe and was intimidated by them. I encouraged her to just...

Where are the days going? I feel like I turn around and it's been a week since I checked in! I got up at 5 again on Tuesday and Thursday this week and did Lite Series weight. I think this weekend I'm going to start with the Intensity Pyramids and do those for a few weeks. I'm enjoying the...

Well, another week in the can. I did manage to do weights on Tuesday and Thursday mornings before work. I'm just doing the LITE PUB and PLB for weights. I like the format of pyramids and as Cathe says: I can get a lot accomplished in a short amount of time! Feeling a bit better. I wonder...

We've had a great weekend so far. Took some long walks and did the LITE series pyramids-Upper on Saturday and Lower on Sunday. I think I'm just going to be in a "maintenance" phase and not try to build mass. A different mindset that I don't need to lift as heavy as possible every single...

How as your week? I saw n the weather channel that it snowed in Colorado. Did you get snow? I did end up seeing my doctor on Friday and am getting some blood work done to see about my lethargy//fatigue. It's still impacting me lot-feels like all I have energy for is getting through the day...

I had an ok week. Thursday I made it a point to talk to my dad when he was in the office. He was-nasty and DH said I should have walked away. There is no talking to him. Then Friday i was off work and we went to Lowe's and I saw my mom. I went over to her and told her what happened. I told...

I will check out the Galveston boards. My lethargy is much better this week. I did have a three day weekend (took Friday off) so that really helped! I only got 8 movement sessions last week-includes my walks to work. I aim for 10. When I go to 3 days a week I'm definitely looking for a yoga...

Thank you for your support-it means a lot to me. I'm definitely in a low period and need to just listen to my body and do what I feel like doing. Every day I wake up with a headache. I think work has a lot to do with it. Of course, then I feel guilty for complaining about anything because I...

Thanks, Lady Vol Fan, I am going to do the one body part/day for a while! Beth

Hello, You are getting some awesome workouts in! Our warm weather (for one day) gets here tomorrow. We cleaned off the back porch and I plan to be outside as much as possible. I did talk with my manager and once my provider goes on her maternity leave, I will transition to 3 days a week. I...
