New Year Challenge!

Chocolickkyss

Good afternoon and happy Tuesday! Today I completed the Cardio Max dvd from the Biggest Loser series. I'm find that I'm struggling daily to get my workout in. The desire to workout is waning fast and I believe it's b/c I've yet to find a new workout routine that will work w/my budget, keep it fresh and new and give my body the workout I need.

Good afternoon and happy hump day! I really need to come up with an effective workout routine because I find myself struggling to get a workout in everyday. For some reason I really haven't felt like working out but luckily have been able to dig deeper and complete a workout. Today I completed 32 minutes of the Push Circuit 1 dvd from the Chalean Extreme series and 10 minutes of the Cardio Max dvd from the Biggest Loser series.

1st goal-18 pounds. I must break through the 190 lb barrier. I haven't seeen the 180's in years! I went public today and hope this will embarrass me enough that I will just say no to Sonic and Zaxby's, and yes to carrots and celery, and goodbye to the pounds as they fall off! Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

I didn't gain any on vacation, so that's something. My husband and I just got a new gym membership, so hopefully that will help as well. They have Zumba classes, which I love.

Good evening all! I'm checking in late because it was a very long work day. It looks like my time of working from home is coming to an end (at least temporarily) because I was chosen to be apart of another review team who needs to meet an upcoming deadline. While the fact that I was chosen says a lot about my work and how i'm viewed within my department but I can't lie I really don't want to have to report to the office so soon. However, I will report on Monday with a bright smile and bells on.

Today I completed the Blast Fat/Boost Metabolism dvd from Jillian Michaels. This dvd is really a total body workout and despite not wanting to complete it in the beginning I'm really glad I stuck it out.


Marilla: Great job w/not gaining any weight while on vacation.

It's officially my wedding anniversary weekend (actual date is the 18th) nothing special today as hubby works all today and half tomorrow, but we're heading to a really upscale place for dinner tomorrow which means I get to wear my lil black dress! Sunday, we're headed back to the Missouri Botanical Gardens (which is where he proposed) and then maybe the Arch and from there, who knows. On another note, update on Grandpa, they did surgery on his spinal column a couple of weeks ago. Well, he has been falling again and when he went to the physical therapist, they said it looked like he has an infection on his neck in the incision. SO they went back to the hospital and he's been there since ( I think it's been a week now). He has a staff infection and pneumonia. It's been hard news on Nick especially. We're hoping everything clears up quick, but everything is up in the air right now. ♥ As soon as I hear more, I will update you.

Good morning everyone and happy Friday! I have a busy work day ahead of me so this will be a quick post. Today I completed the Legs and Back dvd from the P90X series.

Brunettewife: Happy anniversary. How ever you and hubby decide to celebrate will be special since you'll be spending it together. Hope grandpa's health improves soon but put it in God's hands.

Chocolickkyss

Good evening everyone! I'm posting late b/c it's been a pretty busy and fun weekend. Friday some friends and I went to a comedy club to celebrate some birthdays. I did not get home and settled until well after 3 am so I got up late this morning. Once I finally pulled myself out of bed I headed to a local park to see if I could pick up jogging. I had not jogged outside in months since it has been so brutally hot here in GA. Today was an absolutely beautiful day so i stretched and then took off to see how far I could go. I really truly did not expect to jog far but was amazed that I was able to jog 3.76 miles.

After my afternoon jog I came home, showered and headed to my book club meeting. I really enjoyed catching up with the ladies but could only stay two hours because I had to head to a wine tasting that was being held by a good friend. I'm not a big drinker so while I did taste a few wines I only took a sip before pouring it out so I don't think I consumed too many calories. All in all it was a wonderful weekend but I'm looking forward to just relaxing tomorrow.

We're home after our wonderful day at the Missouri Botanical Gardens and Zoo. Beautiful weather and scenery and my gorgeous hubby to stare at all day, what more could I ask for

Update on Grandpa, he is speaking now and understands mostly what's going on. The last memory he has is of last Friday (not this past). He has fought off almost all infections and pneumonia and will be out of ICU hopefully tomorrow, depending on when a room opens up and could possibly be home by this coming Friday. After the beautiful day we had, this news just makes it even better. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers and dealing with my moods this past month. Love you all.

Chocolickkyss

Good even everyone! After all the ripping and running I did this weekend I think I'm now coming down with a cold because I've been sneezing and sniffing. Friday and Saturday I was caught outside without a jacket and while it was absolutely gorgeous during the day the temperature really dropped once the sun set. Since I feel it coming on I've spent today trying to combat it by taking some Nyquil and drinking plenty of fluids. I remained in the house most of the day except when I went out to complete today's workout. Sundays are still my designated rest day so I always take it easy. I jogged for 1.6 miles and walked for 1.7 miles for a total of 3.3 miles.


Brunettewife: Glad to read your grandfather is improving. Hopefully he will be out of the hospital and home with family very soon.

Chocolickkyss

Good morning and happy Monday, if Monday's can be happy....LOL Anyway, this will be a quick post because it's back to the office I go. I'm unsure how long this assignment will last but I'm hoping I'll be working from home again next week.

Today, I completed the Push Circuit 3 dvd (chest, back and legs) from the Chalean Extreme program. What I have been doing the last couple of weeks is following the P90X schedule of what body parts to lift for but instead of lifting for an entire hour I go anywhere from 30-45 minutes. I really like the P90X program but really dislike having to lift for an hour everyday. I've decided I'm going to modify the time and workouts where needed in order to fit my schedule.

I hope everyone has a great day.

So I gained this week and I'm feeling sick becasue of lack of exercise and eating out this weekend. I'm glad it was only a lb and i'm ready to get back in the game and lose the weight for next week. No more eating crap this week, i'm eating clean and couting everything that enters my mouth, no matter how small. Water is my friend as well, I need to flush this crap out of my system.

Well, I'm headed back down. So that's good. It's been pretty stressful at work, and I haven't been really great at tracking, so I was worried between the two I might have gained. I am sorry that I haven't been on much. It has been CRAZY! I'm used to having 6 different classes to plan for (such is the life of a music teacher), but my elementary music teacher has been out because of knee surgery for the last month. Because of this, I have taken over 5th grade music, 6th grade music, 5th grade band, and 6th grade band. AHHHH!!!!!! AND I've been trying to put together fundraisers for my high school choir to go on a trip to Branson. Unfortunately, that trip isn't going to happen because of WHEN the company wants their money. But that does remove some of the stress about the fundraising. We'll still do a little trip. Probably to go to a Broadway Musical in a city within a few hours driving. MUCH cheaper, AND we can continue the fundraising all this year so that next year we can do the Branson trip.

I still have 2 fundraisers going right now, window decals and a cookbook, that are running pretty much simultaneously. I can't wait to get those finished so I can start some of the "easier" fundraisers! Did I ever mention how much I HATE fundraising?!

On top of all of that, DD fell at lunch recess last Thursday and severly sprained her ankle. Went to the doc for x-rays and got an "aircast" brace for it. We had to borrow a stroller and buy some crutches so she could get around until she could walk on it. She's walking on it now, but she SSSSLLLLOOOOWWWW at it. I don't want her to hurry and hurt herself, but I am ready for her to be better!

So that's the story of me lately. I will try to be a better member over the next several weeks. I am so glad to see so many people losing, and to see new faces! Keep working!
