Good morning my Fitness Friends!

I am up early even tho DH is off today. We are going out to Bushkill to meet up with the couple that sold us our Harley for lunch later. They are from CT, but they have a summer home an hour away from us. So we thought we'd meet up for a ride. They're really nice people.:)

So I am off to do C&W's. I'm going to do the combos and lifting w/ Cathe, but add in "my" freestyle exercises. It's fun doing it this way. Then I'm going to do S&H Bi's and Tri's. Can never work the upper body enough I'm finding. You start seeing some definition and you want MORE! }(. I truly am an "addict". Just ask DH and all my friends. LOL! :7

How are you Wendy, Terri, Charlotte, Marie, Jess, and Cleo? Where oh where can our Cleo be? Maybe her computer is down. I'm sure she'll check in soon.

Ok. Off to work out. I'll be back HOPEFULLY withing 90 minutes! :7

Good morning, ladies!

I am hoping to get Rhythmic Step in later. It depends upon what time I get home (which depends upon how late I have to work + traffic, argh).

The GOOD news is, I got the promotion! I have no details except they are making me an offer (the hiring manager left me voice mail yesterday as I was in a meeting all afternoon). Thanks for all of your prayers and vibes!

:)

Kali, do you like the freestyle rotation? I tend to slack off when it's just me... that's why I like Cathe so much!

I hope everyone is doing well!

Cheers,
Marie
 
Good morning.

Marie, CONGRATULATIONS on your promotion!!! I hope DH takes you out to celebrate because you deserve it. You put a lot of time and efort into securing that promotion. Way to go!

Hello everyone else, this will be short as i am not usually up at 6 am especially after falling asleep at 12:30. Kali i don't know how you do it and manage to be so energetic (and friendly!).
This week between call-back interviews and classes I feel as though I am constantly running but never catching up. today is definitely a 2 cups of tea day. needless to say I haven't been able to work in workouts. However, I have created a schedule that will allow me to workout next week once I get caught up.

Tomorrow I have a callback interview with the firm I really want to work at so please think of me tomorrow.

Terri, are you ready to leave for vacation?

Kali, Wendy, Charlotte - hello!

everyone have a fabulous day!
 
Jessica, thanks. Remind me again - are you a paralegal? Good luck on the interviews.... you will do fine! Just take a deep breath and be yourself and you'll do great!

Marie

PS: I saw your note on the Janis S thread - you'll have to let me know what you think of her. I guess I should *try* to give her another shot!
 
Good Morning Lovelies,

Well I decided to get in my run this morning and I still have to get in the shower before I am off here soon to take my son to visit his new teachers at the highschool and then pick daughter from her highschool. I just got in 3 miles. I wanted to go further, but the road looked like it was moving so it was time to stop. I didn't drink water before I got going, and that is why, but I didn't want any cramps and I had to do it early before the heat kicks in again. I knew I would not be any good to do a slow and heavy workout this early in the morning. I never feel strong enough in the am for those kind of workouts. Anyways, my body feels like DOMS attacked it everywhere! LOL!

Marie,

Congratulations! That is super good news. Love to hear it!

Kali,

See, it is addicting isn't it...working out? I know, I do the same exact thing. Sounds like there is no turning back now. LOL! Your workouts are also amazing too.

Hello Terri and Jessica!!!!

Charlotte~~
 
Hey ladies. Good Morning!:)

Charlotte-You made me laugh with your last post!:7 I was thinking to myself as I was reading everyone's post how early everyone has gotten going this morning and I just rolled out of bed about 30 minutes ago! lol I too agree that exercise is quite the addiction!

Kali-Have fun at lunch. I would love to take a ride into the mountains on a Harley right now! Gosh, you make me so jealous every time you mention the bike. :p I dated 2 guys back to back who both had cruisers...I LOVED IT!!! It was better than $ex for me at times! LOL ;)

Marie-A definate congratulations is an order here! That is AWESOME news girl! So what's your new title going to be...Mrs PRESIDENT of such and such company? ;)

Jessica-My fingers are crossed for you girl. You'll do great! Let us know the outcome!

I have ss or pp, 20-30 mins cardio and abs on the schedule for today.

I also get to eat a full days calories today! :9 I should get goin' on that so I can fit them all in! LOL

A friend may come down to visit today. He hasn't met Joey yet. It will be fun if he does.

Speaking of Joey...it's time to get that lazy lil' stinker out of bed! :+

I'll be back!:)
 
Hello Ladies,

Today calls for ME and abs. I will also do a cardio Workout...probably Lowmax. I will check back in through out the day. I leave tomorrow morning at 6am for the airport so I may not checkin tomorrow. I will be thinking of you guys. I still plan to workout while I am away. I will be back home next tuesday.

Jessica-Yup I am all ready to go except for putting my ipod in the suitcase and deciding which sandals(out of the 25+ I have) to take. Oh descisions descisions! :) I will think of you tomorrow and send best wishes for your interview:)

Marie-CONGRATS! That is so exciting about your promotion!

Wendy-I hope your friend visits today. Always fun to show off Your Joey huh:)

Kali-enjoy your outing. sounds like fun!

Charlotte-I agree with you that exercise is addicting. It is so much fun and the results are even more addicting :)

Ok I will check back here later.

Terri
 
Hi Guys!
Way to go Marie!!! :7 I just IM'd you asking about the promotion! What a nice suprise to come in here and see YOU GOT IT! Good job!

Will be praying and keeping fingers crossed for you now Jessica! :)You'll do great. Have faith. Glad you'll be able to get back to regular workouts next week.

Hi Charlotte! Glad you had the sense to quit before you passed out or something!! Enjoy those DOMS! I always do!}(

Hey Wendy! It's about time you got up!! ;-) Good luck getting your calories in. I have yet to meet mine on the 4th day. Hope your friend comes over that sounds like fun. Yes the bike is better than sex for me right now! LOL. It's a BEAUTIFUL day here in NEPA.

Hey Terri it's about time you chimed in too. Are you all packed and ready to go? Have a good workout.

Well I didn't do C&W's.
I ended up walking for an hour, then IMAX2 was on Fittv so I did 2 combos from that and PowerHour. So I am a little shaky while I'm typing this. Feels great tho. When I was doing IMAX2, DH walked by and just looked at me. He was definatley impressed. Wish he'd impress me with something! Just kidding. He's a great guy.

Ok. Got to get ready to go. I'll be back later today. Have a great afternoon.

TTYAL,
Kali

She is 15 and adores her brother..:) He hates when I call her his sister. He better remember to drive up and get her tomorrow after work! I will call and remind him..of course he is 24 and answers when he feels like it.

Kali-yup finally packed and ready exceot for the dog food and I need to get batteries for my camera

Terri
 
I'm back for a quick moment...

I just finished Leaner Legs and I did 22 mins of Power Half Hour Ab Burner! Talk about having to blow the dust off an old tape! lol

Later I have to do upper body and some more abs as the floor work in PHH left me feeling next to nothing. x( I may even try to squeeze in about 20 more minutes of steady cardio if I have time.

I nixxed PP/SS because I decided LL was a great option for me since I am looking to reduce the bulk in my thighs!

Off to feed my son and then myself and than back to finish my work out!

I shall return!:)

Terri---Have an awesome vacation! when will you return? are you going with friends? what kinds of things do you plan to do while you are gone?
 
Hi Wendy-I will be back late monday night so will be back on forums tuesday. I am going with my brother who is also a fitness fanatic which will mean jogs will be no issue nor will eating healthy:) We plan to spend time in la jolla and coronado Island. We are staying right on the pacific beach. We have both been before so we arent planning sea world or the zoo. Lots of shopping and waalking. Also going to point loma. I hope to spend a few hours relaxing everyday and reading. Normally I can't sit still at home to read. Thanks Wendy! Your workout sounds great.

terri
 
Ooooh, SHOPPING! A girl after my own heart! :+

Sounds like you'll have a great time!

BTW-the only time I can sit still to read is at bed time so you are not alone! :)
 
Terri,

You are going to have so much fun! Enjoy yourself completely! Don't stress over your workouts incredibly too much. Just do what you can do, but most importantly take the time to relax and enjoy! I hope you have a very safe and happy trip!
I am off to do Chest and Back FINIALLY!! Then I want to do 1000 crunches. For some reason, I am abit grouchy today so I need to do 1000. LOL!

Charlotte~~
 
I'm back! We had a great day! Riding on the interstate was a little scary because it was so windy, but all in all it was F~U~N! :)

Terri have a great time! Enjoy yourself and induldge at least a little bit!! :7 Have a safe trip!

Charlotte did you do your 1000 crunches?

Hi Wendy! Did your friend come visit??

Mom gave me her Penney's charge so I am off to buy some new jeans! The pair I put on this morning I could not fit into last fall!! And I actually have some room to spare!!!! :7:7:7 So I am off to the mall! Let you know how I make out later!

Kali,

I just finished Chest and Back from the slow and heavy series and I did abs from it too. I had my daugther put a 10lb plate on my back for all the plank work. I am going to do the 1000 pushups also at 7pm.

Charlotte~~
 
Charolette:

You absolutely are amazine. 1000 pushups!!!!!!!!!!!! That is completely unheard of for me (at this point anyway). OMG!!! How do you do it?

~Marcia~

P.S. I hope your "Toasty Rotation" you gave me will help me get to that point. ;-)
 
I have to ditto what Marcia said, Charlotte. WOW!!! You are my idol.

hello everyone else

Terri, your vacation sounds amazing. have a safe trip.

Kali - did you find a pair of jeans? shopping for new clothes is always fun but even better when you are shopping for a smaller size!

Marie, I am a second year law student and am interviewing for a summer associate position which if I get I will hopefully (as long as I do a good job) get an offer after the summer for a job after graduation.

Thanks everyone for the encouraging words! I am off to do some prep work for tomorrow.

Jessica
 
Kali-Glad you had a nicw day. I hope you found some Jeans.

Jessica-Good luck on the job nad thanks for wishing me a fun vacation

Charlotte-You GO with those pushups!

I will see everyone when I get back. I may be on later. Not sure. If not have a great rest of the week and weekend.
