Hey guys, we're down one more week! What week are you all on- or what workouts are you now doing after finishing TF? I'm finally on Week 10. Holy Cow. 2 more weeks to go. The 3 Tone or Sculpt workouts in one week are making my butt sore. Seriously. Every time I go to sit down now I'm like "Ohhhh those lunges!!!"

    I did my NutsinNovember calendar workout. I didn't do the whole hour. I had some problems with my littlest. The time change is making his sleep pattern all wonkey. I will prob do the last couple videos tonight when my hubby gets home. My hubby started P90X so awesome! He has lost 45 lbs now. He was almost 300 lbs. This is the lowest weight I have ever seen him. His belly is about half the size it was and now he is working out! I am happy. I would really like to keep him hanging around for the long haul, if you know what i mean.

    Jeni-- So glad you are getting towards the end of TF are sad? I was ready for a change myself but I still can't wait til Fridays to TF it. I love Chalene. I know what you mean about lunges my butt and thighs have been hurting. Not like oh my gosh I can't move!!! but it's the hey now whats up? kind. My core is the same way now. I did 35 minutes of almost all core work! I got through most of the exercises also. 3 months ago I would have been all pooped out but not anymore.

    See yall tomorrow. Oh on a side note Don't forget to vote tomorrow! =)
  • Hey gals! Kudos on getting this far! I lost a little steam this weekend and decided to take the day off yesterday from Fire 55EZ(I know Sunday is Fire30 but I subbed it in earlier in the week due to time constraints). Anyway, get all set up to do HIIT 25 this morning, get to the leaps in the first drill, and BAM! Sharp pain in my right knee. GRRRRRR!!!! I decided to just call it on the HIIT for today, Chalene says listen to your body, and that knee was kinda talkin to me all last week as it is. I really don't want to come this close to the end, do something stupid, and mess it all up! I'll probably do Sculpt 30 tonight, and see how tomorrow goes. As much as I hate to, if my knee keeps acting up, I think I may take this week off, then finish next week. Really don't want to lose my momentum!

    Wow, Jen, this is bitter sweet to know you are getting to the end, but also a great accomplishment. You know I am doing 20 weeks and then the hybrid schedule. I am not able to do the 6 days a week as my back and ankle do not always comply. I get a solid 4 to 5 days a week. I got up this morning and did the Low HIIT 25 and 15 minutes of sculpt. You all know the early morning issues. I had to cut the sculpt short so I could shower, make it to vote and THEN get to work. I have internship tonight and I am trying to find my second wind.

    Oh yeah, Jen, what workouts will you try next. Hope everyone has a great day.

    Nice Job Ladies! I did fire 45 ez today. I usually love that one but it totally kicked my butt. I am tried though so I think that was alot of it. Feeling a cold coming on to, my hubby has been coughing around here for 2 weeks. Ugh!! I TOLD him to keep it to himself. Well he is a man and didn't listen or pretended not to hear. lol. What kind of shoes are you guys wearing? I need a new pair. :frown: Happy Thursday, I get to do stretch 40. :happy:

    Thanks for the Birthday wishes. I had yummy cake! I did my NutsinNovember yesterday and today. I bought myself a HRM for my birthday. Well my dad did(he gave me some money so I invested in my health) Now I know exactly how much I am burning.

    Vini-- I hope you don't get a cold! How was the fishing trip? As for shoes I am wearing Nike free. I am not sure of the number. I will post that when I go back upstairs to get them. I have to say i LOVE these shoes. They feel like you are bare foot or wearing slippers. They are sooooo comfy. Now if you have wide feet they may not fit as well but they make a free that has a wide. They only cost 90 bucks originally. I got mine on sale for 69 bucks!

    Good luck yall and keep pushing play! My hubby is doing good with P90X. He said it will probably be more like P100X though because he can't keep up with the amount tat you have to do. lol He is funny. I am just happy he is doing something. This man is allergic to exercise for real! I remember once asking if he would run a 5k with me and he about fell out of his chair laughing. (shrug)

    Ok talk to yall tomorrow!

    Oh my gosh, I missed your birthday! D:

    Happy Belated Birthday, Melzy! What kind of HRM did you buy? I was thinking of buying myself one on Black Friday if I can find one on sale (yeah, I'm one of the Black Friday crazy shoppers)

    Vini- I'm wearing Asics GT-2170. When my hubby went to basic training, the Drill Sgts made them all get Asics for training. I like them because they tend to have really good arch support, and a decent cushion for jumping around. I originally got them for jogging, but I started TF instead. I think I'll wait until the spring to take up jogging now.

    Today I did HIIT 25 and Sculpt 30. I used my rest day yesterday, so I have to make sure not to slack off this weekend!

    I will have to check those out! Thanks. I am a crazy black friday shopper too!! :laugh: I love it! I will also be looking for a HMR and a new yoga mat. My Bday is thanksgiving this year. It kinda sucks and it happens every seven or so years (leap years always messes it up) for me. My 21st was thanksgiving. But one good thing is that I will get to use my bday money for black friday. When is the rest of you ladies bday's. I kinda thought MFP would tell everyone, it seems like it tells everyone everything else. :laugh: friday is fire 60 for me not really looking forward to that just because of the time, but I forget how it goes so it will be all good. As Charlean says "I hope you came to work, No slackers aloud" :happy: Keep up the good work!

    I got ready to do my Fire 55 EZ today, put on my workout clothes and as soon as I started the dvd my neighbor downstairs came home. Blargh. I suppose I'll do it tomorrow.

    As far as birthdays go, mine is May 16th.

    Happy Friday ladies! I am wearing some kind of Nike! Lol! I forget the name. I like them because I have to workout on carpet in my basement...the low tread on them are a lifesaver. Just finished 55EZ :mad: feeling good though. My bday is 8/6....... Leo baby! Lol!

    Jen: it's ok about my birthday thank you though. :) I got the polar FT4. In purple and pink. I love it. When I figure out how to turn off the alarm I will probably love it even more. It's not bad just when I am not paying attention I go huh what?

    Vinci: I'm sorry I forgot to post my shoes yesterday. They are Nike free TR 2. Love them I think the 3s are the wider ones. I got them off zappos and I just looked they are on sale again for 70 this time! I don't know if its in the purple though I want those. But I can't get them yet anyway we are trying to get chairs for our dining room table. So I have to refrain.

    I did fire starter today and it kicked my butt. Low energy day that's why I decided to try out the first one again. It is longer then the 30 min and has no fire drills. I did my workout yesterday and one of them was a Victoria secret legs video Cassie made. You had to wear stilettos but I don't have any. Kind of glad cause it was hard enough on my bare feet lol she had sexy moves going too. Really fun and she is funny. I'm really enjoying her workouts. I wish she lived near me I would totally go to her classes.

    Melzy: LOL, you crack me up. I sometimes am on here after everybody is in bed and I actually laughed out loud. My son stirred but didn't wake. Thank goodness. My computer is in the hallway. I had the same prob with my HRM when it was frist new to me. :laugh: To funny! Also what is fire starter? I don't think I have this workout. :frown:

    Lucy: LOL to you too! That's what I would have to say. I have no idea what my shoes are besides Nike. :happy:

    Jeni: That really sucks about today! Also I am not a runner so more power to you girl. I just never enjoyed it. :wink:

    I did fire 60 and abs 10 today. WOW, besides long it Kicked my butt. About 20 mins into it Charlean said something like "your breathing right?" and I was like oh gosh, NO, huffing and puffing maybe? LOL, I forgot how the workout went but I really liked it. It was FUN! The music was so great and so much better the fire 55. The only thing I didn't do so good at was # 3 & 4 HIIT. She did running man and some other things. I just got so lost. I'll get it, maybe. Can't wait to do it again. The Abs killed and I will be sore, for sure. I am to do fire 45 ez and lower 20 tomo. I like fire 45 ez so no biggy but let me tell you lower 20 kills my legs, my butt, and well the lower body. No pun intended. I may just rest and do it sunday. Trying to kick this stupid cold. Besides father in law is taking us for chinese and I will need the extra cals. :happy: I am glad to be moving on I was getting bored. Have a great sat. everyone!
