Alrighty.... The holidays are over, my cold-thingy is almost gone, and I am getting my butt back on track!! TF starting tomorrow!!0

I didn't push play today, I am really sore and I was to do a HIIT 20 and sculpt 30. I did however, pull my kids around in a sled and their total weight was 80 lbs. They wanted me to go faster, lol not going to happen. It was real fun pulling them up the sledding hill. I haven't been logging like I should and won't be today as well. I have a good idea what to eat. We are still celebrating, with my F-I-L. Holidays are always a busy busy time for us. I hope you all are staying warm and dry. Keep pushing play!0

Waaaah I'm bummed out. I want to workout but I feel like doo doo. I'm ok as long as I just putz around the house but other then that I have no energy. I guess the reason I ran out during that one p90x was because I was getting sick! Well I went to the doc today and they gave me an antivirul med. she said I should feel better in a week but its been 4 days already! Lol oh well. I will just take it easy. Maybe we can go for a short walk tomorrow. I would like to get out of the house. We will just stay away from people if we see them. Good thing most of the poxes are under my hair! You can't even see them. I'm glad about that.
Vini that sounds like a lot of fun! We got a dusting of snow that promptly turned to rain. It's ok though I hate snow. Lol
Jeni I am glad to see you are back pushing play again.
Oooooo New Years is coming and then my youngest bday! He will be 4 then the BCS game on the 7th! I have stuff to look forward to ill just think about that instead of getting the dumb chicken pox. Lol who gets that at 41? ME of course. I can never do anything normal.0 -
Hello ladies! So I have totally fell off the wagon
I had a wonderful Christmas. My husband bought me Chalene Extreme. I am trying to think if I want to go Hybrid now. I am going to try Chalene Extreme tomorrow. I have to get back into my routine before my semester restarts. I actually logged something in my food journal today. I hadn't done that in almost two weeks. My husband also got me an HRM so I am excited to actually see how many calories I am burning. A new year is coming upon us soon! I am optimistic that we will make it happen for our health and weight loss goals!

You know falling off the wagon hurts, but you just have to get back up dust yourself off and start again. And again, and.... well you get the pic.
It sounds like you will be doing that soon enough Lucy. I will be doing the hybrid of the 2 very soon. I have 3 weeks left of TF. (on week 18 tomro) Sounds like you had a great christmas. I got some weighted gloves and a vest to try when I change up the schudle. I really wanted to get a hrm but it just didn't happen for me yet.
Melzy, I have a 45 year old friend who is just getting over chicken pox too! The doctors told her it has alot to do with when you were younger and got the vaccine, they were outdated and put the virse live into people. (which they still do but they have learned alot) Its coming out now in adults that are over 40. Will you be making the angry bird cake for your 4 year old?
Well ladies you all are Great and Inspiring all the same. We push play, life happens and we push play again. I for one am glad to be apart of a very REAL group who know how to keep trying and pushing play. You guys rock!!!!!0 -
Yeah no Angry bird cake from me. We are buying it. Since I am sick then no home made cake. He wont care. He prob wont even eat much of it. He isn't a big cake fan. Thanks for the info on the 40 year old chicken pox. You know I had a friend have it a couple months ago. She is 3 years younger then me. it makes me feel like less of a freak!
Aww Lucy. Im sorry you got demotivated it hate that. Know how that feels. I wont let myself feel that way anymore. I know other can't be like me (hubby always telling me that) but it's how I deal with myself. Chalean Extreme is awesome! It is how I started seeing muscles in my shoulders. I love my HRM too.
Yep I am the same we are an awesome group! =D life kicks us we get back up and hit the button. Only way to change is to keep at it.I am gonna get my body back and I do not care if it takes til I am 99. I will do it.

Don't fret too much about falling off the wagon, Lucy. The important thing is to jump right back on again and keep going! I've done the same thing this month, but now that Christmas is over and the Christmas goodies slowly start to disappear (not gonna lie, I ate a LOT of macaroons and truffles) I'll start getting back on track. At the doctor's office, they said I now weigh 161. They're always about 3 lbs over what my scale at home says (which is the one I go with) so I've gained a good 8 lbs this month. Yikes. My next IUI is tomorrow, but I am determined not to sit around on my butt for 2 weeks and eat sweets like I did this past month. I know that the hormones I'm on alone are enough to make me gain weight. I need to push to start losing again. Today I did Fire 30 and Sculpt 30, since I know I cant do any weight training for the next couple of weeks. I'm going to ask my doctor if I can keep doing the cardio workouts if I do the low impact ones.
Vini, I totally agree! You guys motivate me to push play when I would have faltered long ago by myself.
Melzy, I thought I had it bad with my little cold. Here you are kicking butt with the chicken pox! Rock those pox, girl!!0 -
Lol Jeni... I think the pox are rocking me instead. Meds are working though! They stopped multiplying and are doing the crusty thing. That means they go away next! I can't wait!
as much as I like Pinterest and FB I am getting bored.

Hi all. Still handling pre-deployment stuff and I've had some difficulties getting online - had to use my phone to log stuff. Really not on the wagon right now...I've got to wait a bit before I get started again.0
-
Had my IUI yesterday, but my Dr. cleared me to continue my Turbo Fire!!! Woot! Monday will be the start of Week 12 for me (finally!) I was planning to take progress pictures after week 12, but I feel bad since I gained a few lbs back last month during my time off. Maybe I'll go to Week 20 and THEN take pictures!!0
-
YAY Jeni! I'm glad your doc said it's ok to do TF. I am healing nicely and I am going to try to get back in it on wed.
I may do it sooner just seeing how the fatigue gets. I feel much better today and even did some cleaning.
