    Good evening ladies!! You moms are all an inspiration. I am divorced with no kids so to see how much time you all make for yourself is wonderful. Being healthy and fit has always been a struggle for me(especially since my mother is 5'5" and has weighed 125 my whole life). And she eats whatever she wants. Her advice to me today was eat what I want and don't think about it...that works for her. Yeah right!

    Anyhow, sorry for the ramble but just want you all to know you inspire me to workout cause if you can do it with kids who am I kidding. I did CP1 and Ab Jam this am and will do the 20 min when I get off work. So thanks for inspiring and Sara aka 3 babybeans you should so become an instructor, it will be great for you and your family. Thing of how awesome that would be to meet the women who got us all motivated everyday. GO FOR IT and don't think twice.

    Great night all and JAM!!

    Hey Everybody,
    Checking in before I shut it down for the night - Just finished FB and getting ready to dig into lean Gourmet pizza - and I'll still have about 500 extra calories. I think that's part of why I work out ~ so I can eat:bigsmile:
    No sweets for me for 8 days now ~ the fruit is actually starting to be as good as a kashi bar or a sugar free chocolate pudding...........ok, :ohwell: who are we kidding ,here, hahaha but I made it thru today!!

    Drevansmom - sorry, you were a little under the weather today. Future reference: a little salt, couple of asprin and a big glass of water really holds off the "morning after" effects. that's a little wisdom from my college days~ sounds crazy and probably not that healthy (salt) but it worked every time... at least everytime I could remember to do it,:laugh: Another great remedy a big fat greasy cheeseburger!!
    Hope you feel better really soon. Glad the job is going to work out for you ~ you deserve it.:heart:

    Shapely - glad you're here with us - we need you too!! Great job on your workouts today:drinker:

    Annette- I wasn't gifted there either, alas, my gift was in the other direction!! All pear shaped:wink:
    I can't afford any shrinkage!!! Enjoy your workout!!

    Michele, I can't scroll back to view your post but what's bosu?? It sounds fun!!

    Nite to all I missed - see you tomorrow,
    Janet

    I don't know how you do it. I think all I have done is eat sweets for the last three weeks. I don't know what my deal is lately. I can't seem to get my eating back in check!! It's driving me crazy. Most days I stay in my cals but I have been over more in the last 3 weeks than I have in the last 6 months!
    Oh Yea...nice to meet you Janet :flowerforyou:

    Shapely-good job on your workout today!

    I'm still feeling :sick: tonight. Not sure if it's still the after effects of last night or if its the greasy yuckness I had for dinner :sick: Hoping to wake up feeling much better tomorrow. The additional child will be here bright and early so I guess I should get to bed so I'm physically and mentally prepared. Good night all.

    Morning everyone!

    Janet Bosu is like half of a stability ball that sits on a hard platform, and you use it kind of like a step but it's bouncy. Very fun,

    Drevens mom I sure hope you're feeling a little better today. I"m thinking of you!

    hugs

    Thank you Michele. I am feeling much better today. Planning on getting my workout in soon. I was so dehydrated yesterday, ugh! I drank over 64 oz of water and I don't think I went to the bathroom more than a couple times!! (sorry if TMI) Usually when I drink that much (everyday) I go ever hour or so. I'm hoping that all the toxins from the drinks and the few cigs I smoked (stupid) are gone and I can move forward.
    I weighed in this morning...no loss...but no gain. I expected it. I can't continue to eat like crap and think the weight is going to keep falling off. I consider myself very lucky that I lost 2 lbs last week and 2 the week before cuz those weeks were bad as well. So here I sit at 175, hoping that this is just a result of bad decisions for the last 3 weeks and not the beginning of a plateau.
    But....:drinker: Here's to a new week and better choices and working my butt off with Chalene!
    I will check in again after my workout.

    Good Morning Ladies!

    Checking in with CP3 and booty sculpt and abs. We finally got some nice weather here so I'm looking forward to a long walk later.

    Drevans_mom, glad you're feeling better today!

    Michele...that Bosu ball sounds pretty interesting...I've never heard of it before!

    have a great day everyone!

    drevans mom I'm so glad you're feeling better today. You hang in there, you'll see a loss next week!

    Megan enjoy your TJ today.

    I didn't get any TJing done but I did go for a long walk this morning and then buzzed around cleaning my house. Spent about 90 minutes getting in exercise and I'm feeling so, so good. I love what endorphins do for me. Why can't I be addicted to them instead of food? lol

    hugs

    I did CP2 (and my push ups) and as soon as I get the kids on the bus I'm going to do 3T. My triceps are already burning, I don't know how I'm gonna make it thru the tricep section :noway:

    Michele I've heard of Bosu but never seen it done. I would think it would be a really good workout.

    Megan great job on your workout and I hope you get outside today. It's turned back into winter here (snow and everything) after the 60 degree weather we had last week :cry: But it usually warms up quickly around the end of March here and THANK GOODNESS I'm so ready for spring.

    I registered for Race for the Cure yesterday!!!!!! I'm not running but plan on walking with a group of friends. I'm so excited. I wanted to do it last year but I was 7 months pregnant and FAT!!! So I'm determined to do it this year. Has anyone else ever done this?

    ok gotta run!

    Good for you!!! It'll make you feel SO good! My daughter and I do the "Race for Grace" here on March 28. Sadly, last year a little girl (Grace) who attended Aidan's dance school died of leukemia, and for the past several years the dance school has sponsored a 5K for childhood cancer. It's so inspiring to see all of these young ladies and their families come together...a very touching day!

    Good job to everyone on your workouts!! Have a great evening!

    Hey Everybody,
    What a day - I didn't even have time to check in until now ~ missed you all and all of the news!!! I see we're going to have an instructor in our midst!! Fantastic ~ hope the class is /was awesome and please share all about it!! I know you're going to be great!! :drinker: I saw something about a ten hour day ????
    Bless you, you better eat your wheaties:laugh:

    Drevansmom - hope today is much better!! good for you getting your workout(s) in !! That always makes a big difference!! Don't fret about the plateau-itis that you don't even have yet:wink: , i'm sure the pounds will be dropping off again in no time at all. Just keep up all of your exercise - and drink that water!!

    Shapely - It amazes me how you get to the gym!! Way to go!! I can never make time like that for me to actually drive somewhere and workout. Thank goodness for dvd players!!

    Ate good today, overslept and only got in 20minTJ but I will end up doing something after I get back from my meeting~ probably another 20min and Ab Jam. My energy level sucks!!

    Just wanted to check in with my friends and let you guys know I'm thinking of you:flowerforyou:

    Catch Ya Later,
    Janet

    Those of us w/out a HRM normally use general aerobics (high impact) or judo/kickboxing/etc depending on how we feel. Hope this helps!

    Hey Everbody,
    Just wanted to check in - only with coffee this morning so far, lol!!! On schedule for PK &J and Ab Jam after I meet with a lady I'm mentoring @ 930 so off to a late start, I guess. Sure felt good though to sleep in for a change~ ahh....
    I blew it w/ the food last nite ~ I waited too long to eat and totally devoured a 12 inch veggie sub from subway and about "2 servings" of lays light chips! :grumble: The night before weigh in~ I know better than that!! I make it a point try to eat subs 6inches in a sitting. I ate like a horse!! needless to say - missed the 20 min and ab jam last night and opted for the remote control and a pillow,:laugh: at least I left the 2 boxes of "100 cal pack Daisy's" untouched. I really thought they were in trouble for a minute,hahahaha! Only down .6lbs this morning ~ but i'll take it, especially after last night!

    Oh well, It's back on track today ~ I will probably throw in an extra something out of "guilt" (hi sarah,:happy: didn't you post something about guilt exercisng??) It's all about the journey,right?

    Had to check in to keep myself accountable ~ what would I do without you guys??

    Welcome Odette ~Gottaluv is right about logging the TJ exercises. I usually use kickboxing or high intensity areobics for the cardio stuff, depending on how I feel and how hard I exert myself. For ab jam I have been using general aerobics. Glad you're here!!

    Have a fantastic day everybody:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    Hi...just have a few minutes. We are heading over to a friend's house for a BBQ tonight and I need to start getting ready.

    Checking in w/ P,K,&J and Ab Jam...perhaps some pilates later tonight depending on what time we get home.

    Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend:flowerforyou:

    Checking back in w/ PK & J and some yard work ~ DH was in the mood so I skipped the AB JAm I planned on and went out back w/ him to help. I'll get to my AB Jam later on this evening. Got a good one in though - my glve came undone and almost went flying!!! Comic relief :laugh:
    Talk to you all later,
    Janet

    Gottaluv hope you're enjoying your BBQ!

    Janet LOL at your comic relief. Hope you enjoyed the yard work.

    DH and I went out for a long awaited date. Haven't been out alone in ages, every minute was taken up with wedding details for the past month. Now that DD is married we finally earned a much needed moment to connect.

    Could have made some better food choices though. Had popcorn at the movies, mushrooms in cream sauce and a Cobb salad at Iggy's. Yikes! Should have skipped the mushrooms but they were just calling to me. Needless to say I won't be eating much more today.

    Did 20 minutes of Bosu and 20 minutes of 20 min. Jam this morning. A good time was had and I worked hard.

    hugs to all today

    Hi Everyone!
    Well I totally blew it today...but it felt good!:laugh: Running around with the kids all day so no TJ...but running after kids should count for something, right! :tongue: DD talked me into Baskin Robbins tonight and I had a WHOLE Reese PB cup sundae...1400 calories!!! :laugh: Oh well, I'll try to do a double workout tomorrow. Good job on everyone's workouts today...Janet, now I feel guilty, I really need to get into the garden. :laugh:
    Enjoy the rest of the weekend
