Morning Jackie. I just thought I lost you guys.

You are to funny about your scale. Enjoy your time with your hubby. :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

I did make it to the gym. I was going to stay home and do yard work but, I opted for the gym. The ground is still a little wet so I just did not want to get all muddy.

Hope all the ladies finds us.

Teens and their wish to eat- auggh- I am bouncing- 209 is the one I will choose for this week.

If I could just figure out a way to not have food in the house... that only works for so long and then the hubby complains louder than the kids.

The other problem is the 16 or so inches of rain we have had since last Thursday- makes it a little hard to do much outside. Next week, after Spring Break, will probably be gorgeous. Oh well.

jennyeckel

hey whew I found you all!!!!

whoops brb

allright girls,
how is everyone doing? I am sore today....:sick: yikes, I haven't done bl cardio max for awhile and boy is my bum tired. Seriously, when I tried to get out of bed I think that I actually heard it say umm NO way I am moving and proceded to fight me every inch of the way :noway: :noway:

Snowy out and icky, but hopefully it will warm up soon and melt it all away again! School was 2 hours late this morning so I had better get my boy ready pretty soon :yawn: :yawn: I am sleepy this morning but I have to get a work out it....ughhhhhhhhh

laughytaffy

Thank you so much for the warm welcome all ! I will need all the help I can get lol

BlackbeltLJ-What I do since my hubby and son both are junk food fanatics is I put them in a cabinet that is designated only for them and I am not allowed in there. I even have a sign on there that says DH and DS only lmao!

Jenny-Take a nice hot bath and relax those muscles. Iwill be feeling the same way right alongside of you because I havent worked out in a week and today I am going to do it whether I like it or not.

jennyeckel

thanks taffy....I am soooooooooo sitting in the tub come bedtime for my son ahaha:blushing: :bigsmile: Had really great workouts today! Did BL boot camp wand strength training with my sis in law and did BL yoga. I am pooped and hungry. Time for a snack I think I hope everyone has had a awesome day. I am not as sore as this morning thanks to some nice ibprofin. Good stuff hahaha and the rest will be cured by my orders from dr. laughy taff hahahaha:bigsmile:

Hello All,

I just know it is my weekend eating choices that have prevented me from losing weight. I have a large family and we surround ourselves with food. I do attempt to eat the healthy choices, then I go right back to eat the things I should not. The weekends are my biggest down fal

I am waging war on the weekends for the month of April

I am on the 50+ Women thread also.

With the help of others I have named myself The Weekend Weight Loss Warrior

Please join me in the fight!!!!!!

Great job on getting that workout in! Does working out increase your appetite? I know it does me especially when I do cardio.

BTW Doctors orders also include sweet smelling bubble bath and massage from partner optional lmao!

Kathy I love the name the weekend weight loss warrior. Weekends are super tough for me as well but we can do it. A minute on the lips equals a lifetime on the hips... Repeating that to myself over and over lol! I got my boxin gloves on and they aint comin off lol!

jennyeckel

jenny

plantlady99

I think these will do:bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

jennyeckel

PERFECT!!!!!!!! hahahaha:laugh:

I do really love the yoga I wore my heart rate monitor and I did burn over 200 cals. Obviously not quite as much as 50 minutes of the boot camp but a change and just awesome for the muscles. Seriously I haven't really seen a difference in my legs for the last 2 years, I mean I know that I have lost weight in them but....WOW in just a month or so I have really shaped them up! My knees "twin" that nasty fat that is your thigh and kneww meeting...yuck well it is like GONE!!! I think that I had that while I was in the womb!!!! woo hoo...I think it is a combo of the boot camp and yoga. And by the way I could have NEVER touched my toes without almost dieing in agony before YOGA. So I LOVE IT LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!!!:bigsmile: :bigsmile:

Seriously Pink is SOOOOOOOOo your color! YOu are going to be doing so mean business!!!!


jenny

laughytaffy

Jenny what a great nsv to be able to touch your toes without dying lol.

butterflydiva

My goal is to lose between 10 and 15lbs by this summer.


Good luck to everyone

So me and my work collegue were having a chat earlier about really not being bothered about what food we eat and the lack of motivation with the gym.. this isnt the first time we have had this chat.

We have our Time of the month around the same time and we both get the munchies around the same time! i reckon thats whats causing my lack of intrest at the moment.. its weird how some people work the same!!

Grr its a bit annoying! I hope i can get through it!!

Katherine

jennyeckel

OH the TOM Munchies....:sad: :sad: They are the WORST!!!! I always want somethign SWEET!!! And I am not a super "sweet" addict either. Just at those times! I work the exact same way! YOu WILL be able to get through don't worry. I bet by next week you will doing AWESOME! I am going to come with you to ireland...hee hee just leave some room in your suitcase for me:bigsmile: One day I am soooooooo comeing back to England and do a proper tour of it, this time also hitting scotland, wales and ireland...but I think that I will be quite a bit older ahahah with more gray hairs to boot!

Just hang in there Katherine:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: You can get through this little bump...and you are right It is ONLY a couple of days. What are a couple of days in the the whole spectrum of things??? Not really anything. A Whole bunch of days doing good always counts more than a couple of bad!!!

Welcome butterfly!

Laffy it is GREAT to touch my toes ahahah I can see them too when I look down...that is even BETTER!!!!!

Jackie Jackie Jackie You have been soooooooo quiet BUsy??? HOpe you are having an excellent week!

:flowerforyou: Good Morning All,

Katherine:flowerforyou: Sorry to hear about your Tonsillitis. I wish you the best.
You are just going to love your Polar F6. I had mine for about a month and just love it. It does motivate me to keep on working out. I love to watch the calories burn.

You have a great weekend.
