    Hi, Y'All! Just finished Tracie Long's ReBoot Volume 1. I really like this workout a lot. The cardio intervals were just plain fun, and the weight training really kicked my already sore behind. I am sure this one will make my favorites list. Thinking about you, Joan. Jann and Kim...

    Hi, Y'All! I was a little sore today, but mostly I've been stiff. I noticed it yesterday during my workout, so today I did a Classical Stretch workout, and I am feeling a lot more relaxed. I try to do a Classical stretch about two or three times a week, but I probably need to do them every...

    Hi, Y'All! I'm still here. I just finished The Firm Volume One. I am now exhausted, but I am also determined to do at least one of those Classic Firms a week. They are really challenging. Thanks, Jann. I liked surprising myself! Beth, I usually use that particular premix when I am...

    Hi, Y'All! Jann, I do like that workout very much as well. I like to throw it into my rotations. Today I did one of my very favorites, the Firm Volume 5. I have had a real problem with leg presses on a 14" step the past couple of years, I could not do them without getting so out of...

    Hi, Y'All! I just finished LIS (the original, just like Jann did the other day), and I really enjoyed it. I must have gotten a better quality of sleep last night than I thought, because I seemed to have had more energy today. Kim, hope you are feeling much better soon. Food was...

    Hi, Y'All! Jann, I have no doubt at all that you will have the most beautiful yard in your neighborhood! I remember how lovely the last pictures you posted of your lawn were. You have a real talent there. I just finished one of the premixes from Cardio Supersets. I did not have such a...

    Hi, Y'All! Kims, how great that your granddaughter enjoys working out with you! That is fantastic! What a great way to spend quality time with her! I did some housework max today, but I just finished the Athletic Training Express premix. Give Cathe 20 minutes, and she'll work your...

    Hi, Y'All! Back again. I just finished Pump, and I really feel good. It was wonderful to move, and I know I'll get a better night's sleep tonight. Have a great weekend, everyone! Magnolia

    Hi, Y'All! I am so sorry to have been absent for so long! Just been so busy, and unfortunately too busy to work out. But not too busy to eat! :eek: We went to a wedding (DH's second cousin) in Richmond, VA last weekend. It was the biggest wedding I think I ever went to. The bride is from...

    Hi, Y'All! Well, I decided to change things up a bit and see what I could handle, so I did the Express premix from Athletic Training. I forgot how much fun those workouts are. I needed to do something short and also wanted to know if maybe I could challenge myself a little and see if it's...

    Hi, Y'All! Joan, don't get discouraged. I think you are doing very well to get in some activity. It's tough when there's so much else that needs your attention. As for the food thing, I think that's just something that happens to all of us. It doesn't mean you can't stay on a diet, it...

    Hi, Y'All! Well, I had intended to have a stretching workout yesterday, but instead had tummy problems and felt worn out all day. :( Today, I did Basic Step again. It helps to do things that I am very familiar with and that I know are short. I am sticking to the diet I have placed...

    Hi, Y'All! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JOAN!!!!! :D Hope you have a spectacular day! I love that word "grubbage"!! :D Did you just come up with that? Fantastic! ;) Jann, I don't know if I will ever actually be a size 8 again, but I'm trying. I believe that you should aim for the highest (or in...

    Hi, Y'All! I did Basic Step and the Stability Ball Abs workout on that same disc this morning. It was a real struggle to get started, but I'm glad I made myself do it. I am afraid that if I stop now, I'll give up, and I can't let that happen!! I had a few instances of giving in on my food...

    Hi, Y'All! I actually did a workout today! I had to talk myself into it, but I did FitPrime Lean. I, like you, Jann, decided to do things that are short and sweet. Things that I like and know and that have worked for me before. In 2006, I had gotten down to a size 8 and stayed there for a...

    Good morning, Y'All! Welcome, Kims. Glad you decided to join us. I was plowing along very well. I have lost 6 lbs. since I started. However, Monday, I was exhausted all day. I have no idea why, but I just get days like that sometimes. I did an old Firm Tuesday, and Wednesday I did...

    Hi, Y'all! I hope everyone is well. I just finished The Firm Better Body & Buns, a workout that I used to think was relatively easy. Well, today it was anything but! I cannot believe how out of shape I am, so I guess I will be throwing this one and others like it into the mix now and...

    Hi, Y'all! Joan, thank you. I think it's a great idea to have someone to push me. I did Basic Step today. This is my strategy, and so far, so good. I am going to involve myself in some sort of movement six days a week. If it is stretching for 25 minutes and that's all, then fine. If...

    Hi, Y'all! Beth, yes, that was the same ship. DH and I freaked out when we heard/saw the news. We have been praying for those poor people. While we were on that ship, FIL had to have wheel chair assistance, and we would wait forever after calling for the wheelchair. We were told there...
