Who cares - HO HO HO!

Ankle feels pretty good since I rested it. Since dr cleared me to workout (just limit things that aggravate it) I did 60 min of spinning, limiting standing, especially standing sprints(my neck thanks me too). Ronne, I despise shopping. You'd think that'd save me money somehow, but online makes it too easy. Mary, MRI is Thursday, but can't get back into dr until the 29th! I'm leary of all the options! For different reasons. A friend who had a chip says get it removed. It's so odd that now it's causing problems. Must be age. :(
 
Hello

Mary - I tried one of her workouts the other week. A UB and abs. It was harder than it looked!

Lisa - well done on getting a workout in. That must have felt good!

LIHI CST today. I was going to add abs on but just wasn't up to it. Work has pretty much finished (just waiting for the money now!). So cleaned the bathroom instead!
 
Hi girls! Today did Ilaria, she's amazing! Ronne, hope your money comes quick! I was surprised by Linds's workouts also, they appear deceptively easy! Lisa, hope the MRI goes well. I don't care for those! Roxie, how are you doing? Have to get shopping! Good day to all! Mary
 
I did LLA and added tri on from RWH CST. My ankle almost feels perfectly fine, I feel like a fraud going in for a MRI. If I wasn't so debilitated last week I would think I was going crazy. Since I haven't done any walking with purpose it seems that's the biggest trigger. Too confusing, glad I'm not a dr! Ronne, enjoy time off! Mary, still shopping? Wow! Roxie, how are you?
 
Good Morning,

I walked on the treadmill and my legs are shaking. I went into work to let the boss know when I was going back it amazed me how many people care.

Lisa-glad to hear the ankle feels better.

Mary-how old are the twins?
 
Hi everyone

Roxie - keep up the good progress!

Lisa - It's good that you're having it investigated, there's obviously something wrong as you can't do very much on it.

Mary - have you actually bought anything yet?! :p

Yoga for me today. I'm going out tonight with my BF for a Christmas drink. Then tomorrow we're going to see family for a few days so I won't be around again till next week.
Have a nice weekend everyone.
 
Ronne, you are correct, starting to hurt more this morning, enough that I couldn't get back to sleep. Good thing I have UB workout planned today, RWH BSB. Roxie, it's amazing how much fitness you can lose, I'm so sore today in glutes and tri. I was so sore I had a hard time getting off the MRI machine. Had to lay on that hard thing for an hr yesterday! Seemed so much worse than when I had my neck MRI. Maybe because I'm more irritated with my ankle vs feeling like I wanted to die with my neck. Mary, would you do my grocery shopping for me? Meal planning too? I hate figuring out what to have. Christmas is totally up in the air. I haven't planned a thing, told boys to work it out between them and I'd provide honeybaked ham. DIL can step up and have something at their place, even if it's the week after Christmas. I've thrown all holiday planning out the window this year. Maybe that's why it doesn't feel like Christmas, although it's cold enough! Too cold! Snowy and cold, guess I'm spoiled by the nice weather in FL.
 
Good morning! Today did another Linda workout. I got my shipping notice for ICE, maybe tomorrow? Lisa, you guys are getting the snow, today is the first chilly day! Supposed to warm back up on Monday. I HATE MRI's! Ronne, have fun! Roxie, take it slow, surgery is a big trauma! Kids last day of school today, then the crazy starts! 3 basketball games this weekend, Monday is Harvard lunch, then a birthday party, Tuesday eldest DS has to have a cyst removed from behind his ear, then we are going to Pennsylvania for a college visit for DD, we will come back Wednesday. Then it's Christmas Eve! I have hardly anything done! I haven't gotten ANYTHING for youngest DS! Ack! I wander around aimless! I have to focus! Lol! Hope everyone has a good day! Mary
 
Good Evening,

I am having pain in my stomach area so no workout for me today.

Mary-after today I will be taking it easier.
 
Good Morning,

I walked on the treadmill for 30 minutes this morning than did KCM Stepbox Dumbbell Drills using 3lb wts, modified some moves and skip a drill I am not allowed to do now I am wiped out for a while. We have cookies to bake and decorate and Chex Mix to make and DH wants to make some candy.
 
Good Morning,

I walked on the treadmill this morning had to go slowest than yesterday legs are sore. DH is busy making candy and cookies this weekend he is going to make it hard to maintain my weight.
 
I don't have the new DVDs but I have the downloads do I did ICE chiseled UB and core1. It was good, I still went down on some weights where I needed to. Guess I'm not even an intermediate! Lol. Not sure how much working out I'm going to get in with DS here for 2 weeks and my ankle problem. Ankle felt better but once I got up it still didn't feel right so I'm just being careful. I feel like a sloth! Happy Holidays everyone!

Roxie, it's a tough time of year for watching weight, I so need to lose some, especially need to watch eats with the less activity.

Good Afternoon,

I did To The Mat no stability ball premix and skipped some of the moves. This one is going to be my go to leg workout can't wait to be able to fo the whole thing.

Lisa-upper body is going to be my Christmas Eve workout I plan on using 3lb wts through the whole thing for now.
 
Hi everyone

Lisa - that UB workout looked good on the clip. When do you get your MRI results? I wish we had your weather! It's not at all Christmassy here!

Roxie - I liked the look of that one as well. They're probably the two I would go for, if I was buying any (which I'm not!).

Mary - sounds like you're having a lovely, busy time. Hope you enjoyed the lunch and that you got your shopping done!

We had a lovely time with family over the weekend, then we dropped DD off to stay for one night with her brother and his girlfriend. DH and I broke the (not very long) journey back staying overnight in a pub and having dinner. It was just lovely, the place was really nice, had a lovely room and the food was great. It was just what we needed. DH has had a tough time with illness recently so he needed a break.
Been out to do the big Christmas food shop today then I'm going to crack open one of my new KCMs that arrived the other day. I'll probably do a TLC one and possibly add on some of the Abs and stretching from AC 2.
My parents arrive tonight and then we hunker down for Christmas. So probably no workouts for me for a while till after they've gone.

Have a lovely Christmas everyone, whatever you're doing. See you all in 2016!!
 
Good Morning,

I was up most of the night oldest DD was having contractions so she went to the hospital after they dropped GS off at youngest DD so I was waiting to see when I needed to head to their house but the hospital sent her home so I am heading up tonight to stay just in case. I walked on the treadmill for 30 minutes.

Ronne-those are the only two I bought and I don't plan on buying anymore. You are going to like TLC the boxing one is my favorite
 
Hi all, complainer Lisa is here! :) I feel like my body is just letting me down! So, yesterday I was hurting in my left shoulder blade, even though I lightened up on some of the weights in ICE ChUB (I'm making up my own abbreviations), I was worried I overdid it, and I did. Plus I had a headache so I did nothing but lay on the heating pad yesterday and nap. Today I still don't feel like working out, but I tried ICE To The Mat, yawn, plus my ankle was bothering me just from putting weight on it doing glute raises (or whatever they are called), neck is stiff, I feel a bit dizzy (inner ear?), nauseous because of dizzy and a headach started. So, I'm calling it quits on trying anything (maybe a UB here or there) until I see dr about ankle on Tuesday. I'm trying to watch what I eat (need to lose, again, sigh), but gosh if I'm hungry I have to eat! I guess I'm just not liking entering the "golden" years? I'm resting and trying not to feel guilty, per dr orders! He said not to anger my ankle much more so I'm not. Roxie, are you a Gma again yet? Our step count on fitbit is sucking the big one! LOL Ronne, the only thing good about our weather is I'm not tempted to walk the dog. DH has been doing it and he slipped and fell on the ice a couple of times yesterday! Looks like we are going to have a white Christmas (we had a white T-giving). We don't have big plans for Xmas, boys are doing stuff with their sig other side of family as I went on a cooking strike! I'm going to relax! And not feel guilty! I hope!
 
Good Afternoon,

No workout today stayed at DD's house last night. I put jeans on for the first time they are not very comfortable.

Lisa-no baby yet she is still having contractions though. I am not worried about my steps just letting my body heal.
 
Merry Christmas!
I did ICE rockem sockem, loved it! Added on the muscles meltdown tri, wow! Ice Rock/sock was easy to modify for my ankle, in fact it got me thinking of how to use it sitting in case I have to end up keeping weight off my feet. Tuesday can't get here soon enough, I'm ready to get this ankle fixed! I'm pretty sure I won't like whatever needs done, but ready to face the music.

Ankle feels pretty good today so I did ICE metabolic (liked it a lot), added the blizzard blast, couldn't really do some of the exercises, total modification, lots burpees and jacks
