I did not see a thread so here I go. Still trying to come up with something cute. Did Yoga Max. Still not a fan. I can take it or leave it. My legs were really sore from yesterday so I thought a stretch would help. Did you see the teaser for X Train? It does not say much and there is no clip of the workout but I bet people hav watched it a 100 times. Funny how a one minute clip not showing much of anything (other than the crew) can get us excited. :)
Let's make this a good week!

Good Morning,

Today is definetly a stretch day for me so I will do CLX Relax and then I might make up Burn It Off. I finally came down with that cold thats been coming on all week, my throat hurts and I can't breathe.

Murphy-Yoga Max isn't my favorite I like Relax instead.
 
I did STS Meso2, disk 13 (ch/sh/tri), I like this meso a lot and it felt good. I know I'll have some DOMS though. I have DOMS in glute and hammie from STS Plyo yesterday. Amazing how changing up your w/o makes a difference.

Murphy, was the thread title an attempt to warm me up? 59 in house again this morning, brrrrrrr. Had gas fireplace on yesterday, then turned on heat when everyone was over so they didn't have to huddle under blankets. Will start warming up today.

Roxie, bummer about the cold, hope you feel better soon! The stress probably isn't helping you.

Had a nice dinner last night, today is relax and laundry day. I got a Niagara puzzle that I plan to start. From talking to the kids I guess doing puzzles is an old people activity?
 
Funny thing I read on OD, regarding the format of a step workout, something like..."and concludes with a stretch at the end" except I read, "and concludes with a Stench at the end" LOL, must be some powerful workout.

I did some 4ds LIS sh,core and step and also that christy taylor step. Re the Christi, its fun music and choreo but not really worth it to learn since there are better (Hiits, intervals, intensities, etc) workouts in my library. I'll put her back at the bottom of the pile even tho I like her.

Lisa, my mom likes puzzles, I do too but can't imagine doing one. I'm addicted to busy-ness. : (. Speaking of my mom, someone remind me I don't need to go for the jugular when playing Words with Friends with her. Argh, she gets so pouty. Roxie, I'm sorry you've got a cold. But still take care of your tooth! Murphy that title fits fine where I live. Mary, any chance you are just home puttering around? Lisa, how was dinner with kids? Ronne I hope you've had a nice weekend~

Hi girls! Rainy Sunday here, chilly! Still no furnace tho! Haven't worked out yet, I will, maybe YR? Murphy, I saw the clip, Amanda looks amazing for just having a baby! Roxie, hope you feel better, maybe you tooth hurt because of the cold? Your sinuses filling up? Jody, you are doing a lot of step! Ronne, how was your weekend? You leave this week, right? Lisa, meso 2 is my favorite! I wish I had more time, I would pull it out again. This week is going to be busier than last, DD has band stuff Wednesday thru saturday! Then there's dr appointments for DS and his leg, he hopes to start running again, then swim team and basketball start! I had no idea high school would be this busy! Ignorance is bliss! Well, we are cleaning today, better get moving! Mary
 
Hi all

Mary - you mean you're going to get even busier this week?!! How do you have any time for yourself?

Jody - yes, my Christis are at the bottom of the pile, almost close to being got rid of. I just don't want to do 60 mins of step anymore. Sounds like you got some good workouts in this weekend.

Lisa - wow, you really went to town with the cosmetics - good for you! I've recently discovered Benefit, I'm using a foundation of theirs. I'd always thought of their stuff as being for younger women ... Your menu sounded delicious - hope you had a nice family time.

Roxie - poor you, toothache and then a cold! Take it easy this week, don't go overboard with the workouts.

Murphy - sounds like you've been getting the workouts in.

I'm still on the fence about Xtrain. I haven't ordered it yet - not sure if I really need a whole new set of workouts.

Got some workouts in this weekend, yoga on Sat, Intensity yesterday and TBT Total Body Scrambled premix today. I think my days of doing Intensity all the way through are over. It's just too tough. It's funny - on the WM TBT and Intensity both have the same MET value!

Had a pretty odd weekend - some really bad family stuff happening (not DH or DD, we're all good). I don't really want to go into details on here but it looks like some relationships have passed the point of no return.
 
Did CF - or at least most of it. :) I just did not want to do the last set, the last 7 minutes or so. of course I did the add on abs and thenI watched the bonus tabata. I like it, I think I will do that one in place of the last cycle next time. It is no/low impact.

Roxie - I hope you are feeling better.

Ronne - Good luck w/ the furnace. That sucks.

Mary - yes, Amanda looks good. I don't think I looked that good before I was pregnant!

Waves to everyone I missed.

Good Morning,

I have a really sore throat this morning due to several sleep apnea incidents because my nose was to stuffed up to breathe. I will do CLX Burn Circuit 1 today. I didn't workout this weekend DD, GS, and SIL came over to watch a football game and yesterday I worked on the wall hanging for GS need to get it done before he is to old to want it.

Mary-I can't imagine how you find time in your day to get everything done.
 
Hi girls! I am channeling Roxie! I forgot I had CLX, so I did burn circuit 1, they seem to be a lot shorter than Cathe and with these kids I need to compact things! I will give it a go, very different than Cathe, not sure if I like it, but again the darn time! Roxie, hope you feel better, that is miserable. Ronne, families are funny, sorry about the trouble. I hope things work out. Murphy, haha! No I have NEVER looked that good! I do enjoy CF. Jody, funny about your mom! I tried that game, I was awful at it! Lisa, you in the office today? I just have to go run some errands while the kids are in school, then the fun starts! Have a good day, Mary
 
Wow, it's hopping here! I'm working from home since I have a dermatologist appt later this afternoon. Will see what he finds and if what I've identified (3 areas) needs to biopsied or frozen. I did 3 miles on TM and 1.5 miles on elip. I had a hard time running as fast as I normally do (I was blaming the TM), then figured out my doms in hams and glutes was making running more difficult.

Ronne, that Ole Henrikson is really making my scar look better. I've seen OBAGI at my derm office, but don't want to get THAT expensive! Sorry about family issues, we find it easier to hurt those closest to us as we know they will forgive us. I don't think I've ever done Intensity all the way thru, in fact I hardly ever do it, too hard. I hope XTRAIN is good and not too hard, how is it that Cathe gets older and her stuff gets harder?

Jody, thanks for putting me in the age group as your Mom for doing puzzles. :confused: The salmon was scrumptious it's funny seeing the young GF and realizing how far the DIL has come. They are like an old married couple! Whereas DS20 and GF couldn't wait to leave and be alone, my DS23 and DIL hung out with us a while. WE had a bottle of the wine we got from Niagara, then I let them taste the ice wine (it ended up being $50 for what is really 1/2 bottle of wine:eek:). DH and I enjoyed the rest of the ice wine last night.

Murphy, got confused about Ronne and furnace. I must not have read something?

Mary, work, kids, w/o, etc. it's TOUGH! Have they gotten to the point where you have to walk ahead or behind them so as not to be seen with you?

Roxie, drink, drink, drink! Hope you feel better soon.
 
update from derm....chest spot, possible actinic keratosis(didn't think it was basal cell), so froze it off. Froze off 2 spots on my cheek. Now my scar by my mouth (the one my co-worker said something about). There is a bump at the end that they injected with something to soften the scar tissue and they lasered the scar to get rid of the redness. All for the low price of $0! It was covered as followup from the surgery. So now my scar looks even worse (purple) from the laser. I'm hoping I'm near the end of my skin problems. BTW, I'm loving the spf I picked up last week by Clarins Clarins UV Plus HP Day Screen High Protection SPF 40: Shop Face | Sephora , it doesn't have that yucky feel. Now I need to head to Whole Foods and look for Hair Shades by Monimay www.monimay.com . It covers roots (not that I need that), and has spf in it so it should protect my scalp more for the day to day stuff. For the out in the sun all day, I'll still wear a hat. Dang I feel like I have more upkeep now that I'm older :confused:
 
Good Evening,

I did CLX Burn Circuit 1. My throat still hurts to swallow and I feel like I have a throat full of snot.
 
Did most of AT. I was late getting up so I had to skip 10 minutes or so. That allowed me to go hard on the rest of it. That step portion really takes it out of me.
The cold front has hit NJ. I had to put the heat on - it is way too early.

Ronne - is your furnace up and running?

Roxie - "throat full of snot" - that is an image that will stick with me for a minute. I hope you feel better. The funny thing is, last night I was looking at experiements you can do with kids and dinosaur snot was one of them.

Lisa - good luck w/ the scar and etc. If your co-worker says anything act like you don't know what she is talking about. Touch every other place on your face ("did I get it?") and see if she still stands there or eventually gives up. :)

Waves to all.

Murphy
 
Murphy, lols
Roxie, maybe you could make a donation to Murphy for her experiments.
Ronne, now I want to do Intensity just to see.
Lisa, actually, it sounds like your derm visit was positive, reassuring?
Mary, your check ins are the like a racer hastily sloshing down water that has been handed off to him while still keeping up the pace of the race!
I'm off to meet with group for our blood drop project.
 
Hello

Clearing the decks ready for the off tomorrow. Did S&G express & abs premix. Going to a burger place tonight to celebrate DH's birthday. Then going to spend the next few days eating cake!!

Lisa - sounds like the derm appointment was successful. Enjoy playing with your new cosmetics!

Murphy - well, we do actually have a heating problem but I hadn't mentioned it on here - so that's spooky!!

Hi to everyone else. See you all next week!
 
Good Morning,

DH has a job interview this morning so I am hoping all goes well. My head feels like its about to explode but my throat doesn't hurt as bad, I took Nyquil before I went to bed so I think it helped. Tonite I will go to the gym and do the ellipitcal and get weighed.

Ronne-have fun on your trip.

Lisa-thinking of you today.

Murphy-if I could get it to dislodge I would send you some.

Jody-have fun today.
 
Did SM today. The bruise is awful so I told them I'm working from home all week. I didn't expect this bruise, but I guess it makes sense since the laser was done to break up the blood vessels they thought was causing the redness.

Roxie, ooooh, snot by mail! Will keep fingers crossed for DH!

Ronne, yes the dr appt was positive. I didn't examine my scalp very well before I went so I may have missed one area I would have liked him to look at and now that I have(easier to do when hair is wet) I'm a bit worried about another spot, but I'll just watch and wait. My skin is the type to get redness anyway.

Jody, if you do Intensity all the way thru you should get an award!

Murphy, still wondering how you knew about Ronne's furnace :)

Mary, hi, bye! zoooooooom!
 
Forgot to add, not only do I feel better with new work schedule (sleeping, etc), but I'm now losing weight again! I haven't changed anything else. Darn cortisol!
 
Hi girls! Today did CF. Roxie, I hope you feel better, that sounds awful, especially the whole throat thing! How did the interview go? Sending good thoughts! Lisa, so glad about the dr's appointment! What a huge relief for you! And work from home is a great bonus! Ronne, have a great time! Fill us in on all the details! Murphy, how early do you get up to workout? I don't think I could get up any earlier than I do now! Jody, you gave a perfect description on how I feel sometimes! Haha! DS was cleared to start running again, which is good and bad! He can run again, but now I will have a lot more running around because he can run! Oh well, only 3 more weeks left to the season! Well, gotta get dinner going, I think it will be Chipoltle tonite, please don't judge me! Have a good evening! Mary
 
Good Evening,

Tonite I did the elliptical at the gym. PT couldn't figure out how to use the scale so she couldn't weigh me. The interview went well he is doing the paperwork. My cold has now moved to my chest so I have started coughing.
