40's April no fooling!

Hello! Today did AT. Lisa, I LOVE those purple pants! Sounds fun on hike. I wonder when they will have you start work? Roxie, boating! All ready! In the 60's here. I was wondering about jury duty, here it lasts a minimum of a week. Ronne, doesn't it feel Ike Christmas with the new workouts? I just love getting new ones! Jody, I have dropped the weight behind my knee before, I only use 3 lbs, I know Cathe uses 5, too much for me. 3 more weeks for you? Hi Murphy! DD did awesome yesterday! Came in 2nd for 100 meter hurdles and 4th for the 300 hurdles. She has another meet on Saturday. Have to run to target. Maybe I'll find some purple pants? Mary
 
Mary, Voot, track meet sounds fun. I have tile floors, don't want to risk dropping wt. Sometimes I work over puzzle mat just in case.
Lisa, that was a cute fashion haul. Loved the outfits you modeled. I could use all kinds of clothes, especially just regular tops. I hope job stuff works out, for both of us, too.
Ronne, there are stretches included in workouts?? O that is what they are doing. I gotta try that some day. : D
Roxie, you are getting a good start on the season, boat wise.
I did KCM Stepboxing pm today. I am really really not a boxer. She's like, "bodyshot, bodyshot, bodyshot". I'm like shimmy shimmy shimmy. : )
 
Good Evening,

I did KCM Kickbox 1 when I got home from work today. Boss man asked me today it I would work next Wednesday and I said luckily DH has a meeting next week so it was ok then he told me he had another appointment on May 7th also a Wednesday so he asked me if I wanted him to change it and I said please I would appreciate it now his wife is mad at me.

Jody-I love KCM's workouts she is so funny. We won't get to boat as much this year because of DH's new route so we go when we can.

Mary-they told us this particular case should have taken 2 days until they couldn't find their witness. It was almost 80 here yesterday so good day for boating.

Lisa-that company sounds ridiculous
 
Hi ladies

Roxie - I take it you don't usually work on Wednesdays?

Jody - So, you've invented a new hybrid: Stepboxbelly! You really need to start stretching!! It's so important, we've got Lisa on board, just got to sort you out!

Mary - congrats to DD, that's fantastic.

Lisa - love the workout gear, it always makes you want to work out doesn't it?

Decided to go for yoga today, felt like I needed a stretch. Did my best ever crow pose! Very pleased with myself.
Off to my parents with DD for a few days on Sunday so I won't be around till the end of next week.
Have a good weekend all.
 
Good Afternoon,

I did KCM's YBB 2 before work this morning and I would really love to go for a walk when I get home but it will be to late.

Ronne-Wednesday is my DH's day off so it will also be lake day and they had agreed to that when I came back to work for them. I am another one that is horrible about stretching.
 
With all the talk about KCM Body Shop, I had to pull it out, did the premix that has both workouts and then walked the dogs 1.85 miles. And STRETCHED! I'm starting to feel a difference with all the stretching.
Worked out in the my new clothes, the pants made me want to pull my stomach in. I've been working out in those t-shirts and shorts because I just can't get my other things wrangled over my head since surgery. I haven't bought any w/o stuff in years, now I'm wanting some vibram five finger shoes....wondering if it will help my back not hurt when I walk since it's better to run barefoot. Anyone have them?

Roxie, I don't blame you for not giving in on Wed. I still don't have anything to get started for my work, figured I better act like I care and email my mgr....but then I got all cheeky in my email and said I'd be happy if they took another week to get me my stuff! :)

Mary, so did you buy anything? I think DH liked my new w/o clothes :)

Ronne, yes, I almost wanted to w/o yest afternoon, thought about asking DIL (but I don't think she likes working out with me---I can do so much more than her). Then this morning I didn't want to get them all sweaty! :)

Jody, I see making workout videos in your future :)

Murphy, how are you doing?
 
Hello everyone! Today I did tonique, punishing myself apparently! Ronne, enjoy your time away! We'll miss you! Lisa, your job is so funny! I didn't find any purple pants! I tried tho! I like those tanks, I'm so lazy I just wear t-shirts! Roxie, thanks for the beautiful weather! Amazing here! Jody, how are you? When is finals? Murphy, how are you? Please, tell us! You all are making me want to buy up KCM! Won't do that til after I recover from my surgery next month. Gosh, coming up too quick! Have to get cleaning! Have a good evening! Mary
 
Roxie, got the tops and pants from old Navy. Sports bra from target since I had one that I knew I could get on, I bought more like it. My old tops with shelf bra I just can't wriggle on anymore. Thanks for the compliment, I think pilates is doing some good things for my body. Even the arms in my t shirts are fitting for looser (they've always been tight) don't know why they are looser, weight us still same.

Mary, forgot you had surgery coming up.
 
Lisa-I like old navy's workout gear and I too have the shelf bras and have a really hard time getting them on anymore they roll up.

Its going to take a month of rain to clear the smoke hanging in the air.
 
Hello! Happy Saturday! Today did a Cindy Whitmarsh w/o. Also picked up leaves and sticks, spring is here! Lisa, are you getting snow this weekend? Roxie, I like old navy too. I guess if I went to a gym, I would buy cute workout clothes. Jody, how much longer? Murphy, hello! Have to get to shower, have a good weekend! Mary
 
Good Afternoon,

This morning I did KCM's Cardio Blast with Plyo drills mixed in then DH and I went for a 6 mile bike ride in wind gusting to 35 mph winds it was not fun and he decided to set a faster pace.

Mary-we are suppose to have snow Monday so I would love to say spring is here but not yet. I like to wear cute outfits makes me feel better.
 
Busy Day today, finally got in a 60 min reformer w/o. 1 mile walk.

Mary, we are supposed to get snow today. I do feel like it's a waste "dressing up" to workout, it is easier to just throw on a t-shirt, maybe they will get me in the mood :)

Roxie, yuck on riding bike in wind!
 
Drive by....I am working much more this weekend than expected and next week is busy too but wanted to say hi.
I'm car sharing w/ dd, tonight I took bus home for first time. First time for local public transportation. Chatty old guy w/ bottle of booze chatted me up and kept saying i needed to be in a hot tub. DD says I am never to speak to the bus people again. Faux pas, my bad.
Good job on the workouts. Roxie, wind out there is something at least 50percent of time it factors into outdoor activity I think.
Putting on cute outfit good idea but I just feel yuckier unless I'm thinner.
 
I did KPC minus C and minus last 2 punching combos, lower back was tight, stretched and foam rolled. I bought Vibram Five Finger shoes (see pic below), to see if they made a difference in walking and my back. I notice I strike really hard with the heel and that can cause back pain I think from reading their website. So I need to work on my stride. I wore them during KPC, I notice I can lift on my toe easier, not sure what I'll do with them, but just breaking them in little by little. Sometimes I think my back is just getting worked a lot with the pilates because my glutes and hammies were tight too. My butt feels very lifted! Oh, I lost 2 lbs, I'm guessing maybe I was putting on muscle HENCE WHY I wasn't losing, who would have thought Pilates would put on muscle (and light weights), surely I didn't lose that much during my convalescence(sp?)

Jody, today I was like, ugh, I have to work to put in my w/o outfit instead of just throwing on t shirt. Once in them I do feel better. Funny bus story, I've never rode a bus but a school and formal tour bus. I'd be wigged out.

Snowing today, so wanna rest now and read in bed :)
 
Just a quick to say that all is well. I had the surgery, it went well. I had a drain under my left arm from where they removed some lymph nodes. It was in for almost two weeks but is out now. I could not exercise with the drain and still cannot because of my limited range of motion. I hope to start physical therapy soon. I start radiation in a week or so.
My weight is holding steady-right now. I did gain back the 5 ponds I lost before surgery. But at least that was it and no more.
Anyway, hope to be back soon. Keep the prayers coming.

Murphy
 
MURPHY! So glad to hear from you! Prayers definitely have continued for you. I think of you daily. Lisa, are those shoes comfortable? That's all that really matters! Did you get special socks? Jody, did he want you to go in the hot tub with him? I haven't been on a bus in years. Roxie, did you get any storms? 78 here today, will be 30 by tomorrow night. I did Toby Massenburg Ignite, 30/30 hiit w/o. We did a brunch with DH's family today, lovely! Have a good evening, Mary
 
Good morning! Today did ripped &chisled by Jari. Hadn't done that one in eons! I do have exciting news! Oldest DS found out this morning he made National Honor Society! He had been so anxious waiting for today and he got the news he had been dreaming of! Brought me to tears. Hope all is well with everyone and a good day for all! Mary
 
Good Morning,

Well it was decided by the bosses that I stay home today because of the cold and the wind which is ok because I am working a full day Wednesday so it makes up for it but I do fell bad for not going. It was suggested to me by a friend to do YBB Abs so I did the premix with abs/yoga, Body Shop 1, CK25 WK1 D1, and Total Body Stretch 1.

Murphy-so happy to hear from you.

Mary-that is awesome about your son.
