    Today I did an hour on the treadmill. It felt good to run.

    Spicy I am hopefully going to go to the gym tomorrow with Nicole and pick up an application. I should try a challenge too, my weakness is pop so I think I am going to try to take pop out of my diet. Wish me luck, and good luck on you challenge. You're gonna do great and look HOT this summer.

    Have a great evening girls.

    Hola Amigas!!

    Today was step aerobics 390 cals burned & another 325 cals on the treadmill. I finally turned in my 5K registration for March 27th. I'm super excited & nervous! My weekend was okay, I'm glad that it's a new week & a new month!

    Spicy, I love REPAIR MONTH!! Not just for your hair, but for your health too!! I'm totally on board!! I have got to get myself back into shape! The scale has not been so very nice to me lately!
    I'm glad that you enjoyed the time with your girlfriend & it looks like you got some great workouts in!!
    Thank goodness for Banks saving the day on your correct MC number!! That's quite a big difference!
    My husband is doing so great on his "diet". He hasn't started working out yet, but I'm sure it'll come any day now!

    Megan, sounds like you had a great workout today!! Good luck on getting the pop outta your diet! You can do it!!

    Nicole, great workouts!! Keep it up!!

    Good night!!

    Hey there ladies!!!

    I got my P90X!!!! I LOVE it!! I have decided to do the lean round this time and then the next 90days I will the classic. I still have weight and fat to loose and then I will build that muscle ;) This weekend was Kayla's first ice skating competition and she did GREAT! She won the bronze metal :) We are so proud of her. Most importantly she had a great time! It was a LONG day and I got little sleep and I am paying for it now with the start of a cold or something. I am going to bed here as soon as I am done in hopes of kicking it before it gets me.

    Sandy- That is great that you signed up for the 5K WTG girl!!!

    Megan- Sounds like a good workout girl! Soda was the hardest thing for me to get out of my diet. Still every now and then I will drink a diet soda if I have an unset stomach but there is a thing on youtube that will make you not want to drink it anymore. Just look up the new york soda commercial.

    Nicole- Keep up the great work girl!

    Spicy- i am glad that you and your girlfriend had a great time together!

    BTW I did the Core Synergistics today for P90X and all the work outs are no less the 50 minutes (except the ab ripper X is 16 minutes and yoga is 1.5 hours) and I burned 470 calories. Can't wait to see how much I burn doing the cardio x tomorrow lol!

    Have a great night!

    Good Morning!!!

    I am so in on repair month!!! I am ready to kick some butt!!! Day 2 of P90X (cardioX) done this morning and burned 330 calories. I am sure that next time I do that work out I will burn a little more. Some of the moves took me a bit to get so I did not go full out this time. Still a good burn for 43 minutes. I am really loving these work outs! Busy day today, Olivia to preschool, school the older two, then we have a bunch of ice skating classes tonight lol.

    Spicy- Wow I think I need to take up roller blading this summer! That is a great burn girl! yeah know now that you say something I think I crave the soda mostly during PMS too. Never really put it all together until now lol.

    Hope all you ladies make it a GREAT day! Eat healthy NO JUNK and BRING IT!!!

    Ok ladies you all need to do P90X!!!! It is great and worth EVERY penny I spent! I am on day three and seeing a difference in my core already. Today was shoulder and arms (that one is an hour long) and ab ripper X (OMG pain). With the Shoulders and Arms I burned 391 calories and with Ab ripper I burned 100 calories. That hour and 16 minutes went by really fast this morning it was great! I am not following his food but I am using his %s for fat, protein and carbs. For me it is hard because of all the food allergies in my house to follow the food part. I hope that this does not mess it up for me! Today is a lazy day FINALLY at my house. We are going to do school and then just hang out at home. This weekend we get to start packing to move!!! We had the home inspection and it was good. There is a little mold that has just started in one place in the crawl space but we are asking her to get that fixed. So here soon I will be doing P90X and the moving workout lol I should get some great burns on those days. I will for sure where my monitor. Oh I took before pics but Jeff is not wanting me to post them because you can see my nipples through my shirt LOL. So he said he will take another one of me tonight that I can post for you all.

    Sandy and Nicole- I am so proud of the both of you for doing that 5k!!! You are both going to do great!

    Spicy- I hate when my message gets erased! I usually will copy it before I send it just in case that happens. I bet you got a good burn yesterday at the gym. I sure do miss doing the elliptical!

    Megan- That is great that you got to the gym with Nicole! It is always more fun and motivating when you have friend at your side :) Keep it up girl!

    I am so ready to rock Repair month!

    BRING IT LADIES!!!!

    Hola Amigas!!

    I've had some really great workouts the last couple of days! Monday I did step & the treadmill. Tuesday night I went to step & went back to step this morning! Thursday is my usual rest day, so I'll be taking advantage of that!! My problem is that I need to train for this 5K but I don't want to give up my step aerobics...... ... maybe I'll give up my Tuesday nights & devote that to running along with another day on the weekend.

    Amanda, I'm so happy that you're enjoying your P90X! Everytime I so the infomercial I want to get it!! I hope that you have a great move this weekend!

    Nicole, great workouts with the KB's & Yoga!! How nice that you get to workout with Megan!! 13miles is AWESOME!! How long will that take to run?? The 5K is a little over 3miles & shouldn't take much longer then 35-40 minutes - I think!! :wink: :laugh: :tongue:

    Spicy, I'm so sorry you lost your post! That's so frustrating!! So thankful to you for starting repair month & leading the way with some great workouts!! Whatcha doing tonight??

    Megan, good for you for getting to the gym with Nicole & making time for yourself!!

    Kick butt girls!!

    Today I did an hour on the treadmill. I was going to go run outside but didn't, maybe tomorrow.

    Sanifrey That step class sounds fun. Good luck on your 5K, you'll do great.

    KZO Congrats on the big move and P90X I really wanna try that. I think I am going to look on Craigslist for it.

    Spicy Sorry about your post, wish I could have read it.

    Have a great night girls.

    Hey Girls!!
    I was so busy at work I didn't have a lunch and left late... oh well makes up for the time I'm on MFP :laugh:

    I just came back from an 1 1/2 hour walk with Ruby... she is doing much better with the pullin. Cat chasing is still the same, but once we leave our block we're good. so needless to say I have a Boatload of calories to eat :bigsmile: I'm gonna have a nice piece of lasagna I made :bigsmile:

    Yesterday I took as restday because my arms were soo sore :smile:

    Wow Megan you've really done an excellent job staying consistent and true to your workouts :drinker: You have earned the "Strong Amigas" title :laugh: kidding... but seriously you are rockin it.

    Nicole - Oh my 20 lbs. that sounds killer for sure... super that your instructor challenges you like that. :wink:

    Amanda - thanks for the feedback on PX90 I will see your transformation before I invest :wink: DId you take the picture over without the headlights :laugh: Gotta love ya :happy:

    Sandy - I wish you the Strength on your Rest day... :flowerforyou:

    Talk to you girls tomorrow.

    Hola Amigas!!

    Today was step aerobics - 361 cals burned. I had such a hard time keeping up today. I think it had alot to do with me not eating protein for breakfast - it seems to really make a difference for me. I'll keep track of it & see if I feel a difference when I eat my usual egg white, cheese & english muffin sandwich. Tomorrow I plan on doing a bit of running. Maybe I'll even head out to our local high school track that way I can get some running done outside. I've gotta make sure that the iPod is all charged up!

    I'm glad to see that everyone is working so hard & doing so great with repair month! Keep up the great work girls!!

    :heart: Sandy

    Hey Girlies!!!

    Short and Sweet!

    I did terrible as far as exercise this weekend, but I hardly ate so I must have broken even... Today TOM should be leaving :)

    I met a new guy and My Oh My... He is a hunk! Wish me luck!

    Took Ruby to the Vet again this morning to get Fixed. She behaved like a Lady :laugh: Maybe cause there were no cats in sight :)

    Sandy - Awesome Job training for your 5K :flowerforyou: What is causing these cravings? Are you drinking enough water?

    Amanda - How is the house thing coming>? Keep up the Great work... SOmeone at work is selling a Brand New PX90 for $85, is that a deal?

    Nicole - Hope you had a Blast at GNU.. whatever that is :laugh: I'm an old Lady :laugh:

    Megan - Glad to hear you can see the results of your dedication... Have you heard from the Y yet?

    Gotta go... Deadlines to meet :)

    Today I did not exercize. I went to a job interview at Jakers. It's a restaurant. I think it went good, we'll see.

    Spicy I got an estimate back from the Y so I will hopefully be getting my membership soon.

    Sandy Everything is good. No new Dvd's, I have been going to the gym with Nicole though. I really want to try Jillian Michaels Yoga Meltdown.

    KZO Sounds like you're doing great with P90X. Keep it up.

    Have a great night girls.

    I did my p90x this morning burned 400 calories :) Hung around the house today. Kayla has a bad sore throat, I have a sore throat and my other two have stuffy noses and a cough. Change of season is here and it gets us everytime!

    Spicy- yes 85 is a great price! Do they have to books too? Good luck with your new man ;)

    Megan- Hope everything works out for the job!!

    Sandy- You can do it girl!! I am with you! I have been eating after 8pm for some reason and I am not a late night eater. I weighted myself on saturday and I was up four pounds! I am not putting any junk in my body anymore! We can all do this as a team girl!

    Nicole- Hope you get to feeling better and sorry you had to miss out on gno! That tea you were telling Sandy about sounds really yummy!!!

    Have a great night buddies!

    Spicy, good luck with the HUNK!! :wink: I'm glad that Ruby behaved herself at the vet & I hope she heals fast for you. I think that you may have something there when you asked about my cravings & my water intake... :drinker: I could definately be doing better in that area. Actually, I did very well with my water today & so far so good! :drinker:

    Amanda, it's a deal!! NO junk!! My weight is up too - I even adjusted my ticker!! :angry: But, no more!!! We gotta get these bodies ready for the summer!!!! I hope that you & your household get to feeling better soon!

    Nicole, I hope that you enjoyed your rest day! I'll look into the tea! Who makes that one your mil has?? I know that you'll do great with your run! I've been looking into all kinds of local runs, I'd like to do a few this spring - if & that's if - everything goes well with my first! Kinda gettin' nervous!

    Megan, I hope that your interview went well! Good for you on getting out to the gym with your buddy!! Mom's need time too! :wink: Cause when Momma aint happy - aint nobody happy!!

    Have a great night AMIGAS & keep strong!!
