Turbo Jammers 3/16-3/22

Good morning ladies!! I only TJ'd once this weekend and I didn't make the best of food choices, but that's ok...today is a new day. Since I've only done it once, I can't tell you exactly what she says to motivate but I will say that was the first workout where it seemed to FLY by!!! I'm definitely getting a work out in this evening!!

Oh Megan. That does not sound fun at all. Hope you feel better soon!!!

Good afternoon all!

Sara...thanks for the laugh about the instructor smoking it up prior to the workout! Glad the spin class went okay. How did the kids do?

Megan...that stinks!! I hope you feel better soon!

Lyn...Glad to hear you and hubby talked! Enjoy your workout(s) today!

Amanda...welcome back!

Hello to all!!!!

No workout for me today...all 3 kiddos and myself are sick. I have zero energy and this cold/sinus infection is kicking my butt:grumble:

Have a great day everyone!!!!

Sara I need you to talk me thru what I should be doing as I havnet got a clue!! sorry!!

Hey Everybody Here I am,
Gosh I missed you today!! Students had me so busy couldnt even log in once! The day just flew by!!
Checking in w/ CP2 this morning and I am so grateful the sun was shining today!! 5 days of rain is enough to make anyone a grump!! Got the sneaks on now and off for 20min and Ab Jam. 20min and sculpt on for tomorrow am (I have to write it down~accountability, right, lol)
Glad you all are here and ready for another good week! For the question... hmmm let me see. She cracks me up when she says" you're gonna love this work out ~ it's gonna fly by" It puts me in just the right mind set because it really does fly by and on some days it really is "the best 20 min of my day":laugh: I love when she says the calories are "up" there so reach up and pull them down ~ that always makes me try harder too when my energy is lagging. Another one is during the Capoeria in CP 3 when she says "grab him - THROW HIM!!!" I'm usually yelling it and my dog (who watches from the couch) is just looking at me like I'm a nut!! I can think of many things she says that make me laugh and make me try ~ she's so cool!!

Drevans- glad you had a good day yesterday w/ the Hubs. Always feelsgood to reconnect - good for you
Megan- Oh, No!!! So sorry you got sick, food poisioning is horriblebut when you're oot too:noway: !! Please rest up and drink water. Feel better soon.
Sarah - There you are!! Was wondering where you jammed off to!! Good for you trying something different with the spinning and thanks for the tip on yoga booty. Guess I can save those pennies
Deedun - enjoy your Paddy's Day!! And BTW you're not terrible ~ we're on a journey, it's supposed to be fun sometimes too:laugh:
Gottaluv- Poor thing , you and the kiddos sick, not fun at all hope you feel better really soon!

Big (((HUGS)) to all I missed

Have a great rest of your evening
Janet

OK, I have been thinking about what Chaleen says that motivates me...I like in the beginning of P,K,&J when she says something about early on in your workout deciding what kind of workout you are going to have..."commit to it and stick to it". Something along those lines.

Still all sick here...last night was one of the longest nights of my life and involved very little sleeping. My 10 month old seems to be getting the worst of it right now I highly doubt I will be working out today:sad: :grumble:

Thanks for all of the get better wishes...greatly appreciated! I'll BBL to check in again. Megan, hope you are feeling better!!!!

Good morning all!

Well after my two weekends of maddness I now have a head cold :noway: I am all bunged up and cant breathe through my nose, my throat is like sandpaper and my nose is leaking !!

This has been coming for a while! For the past month I could feel there but somehow I always managed to fight it off, so I am happy now that it's here so I get on with life!

I was feeling dreadful this morning but now as the day is growing, I am feeling a bit better in myself and I will try to manage getting in a TJ workout.. Might do the TJ20 & TS. I havent worked out in ages so I badly need to get back on track!

I weighed myself this morning just to see how much damage I did over the weekend and I havent put on any which is brilliant!! :happy:

I am so glad I have this cold now and that I have no more parties or mad weekends planed for quite a while so I can get back to my weightloss plan and start loosing more weight!! I have been in the 170's for ages now so I'm dying to get into the 160's !!

Hey Jammers!
Amanda... I hate when I forget to bring my lunch, I don't want to each a bunch of calories I'm not even aware of when I have to grab something out... what I have been doing is thinking about the places to eat by where I work, and then go on-line and get the nurtrition menu for that restaurant and pick out exactly what I will get so I can accurately record my calories. Hope that helps!
Did Tae Bo Ultimate last night, 90 minutes with my beach body gloves and 1 pd ankle weights! What's interesting is that my heart monitor only beeped twice telling my my heart rate was too high. When I do TJ, it's constantly going off! According to my heart rate monitor, I burn more calories when doing TJ than the same amount of time doing Tae Bo.... once again reinforces my love for TJ.

Hi everyone.

Wow we've got a bunch down with the sick stuff. My love and hugs going out to all of you.

Waving hi to those I haven't met yet.

Just a quick check in for me this morning. Been feeling lousy all weekend, finally up to a little exercise this morning, but definitely had to push myself to finish. Did Kettlebell workout with Gin Miller and then walking on the treadmill. Just have no energy at all. BLAH!! And I don't even want to get on the scale today. It was a lousy eating 3 days. But the good news is, I did get up and exercise today and I am counting my calories. No giving up, which I would have done a couple of weeks ago. Thanks to all of you for your motivation. You make it worth my while to log in and check in.

Have a great Tuesday. I'll be back to Jammin tomorrow!
hugs
michele

Good Afternoon Beauties,
Hope all are well and feeling much, much better!! No fun being sick at all. Checking in ~ last nite did 20 min (that is such a great short work out ~ really gets my heart rate going and Ab Jam and started the day off with Sculpt. Wanted to add the 20min in there too but just could NOT drag my carcass out of bed this morning!! I'm such a sleepy head:laugh: Had to really push to do the strength training; I always feel like I need to burn more calories. But Chalene says that muscle burns fat - even when resting. I need to read more about that so maybe my mind will shift a little bit. I know it's good for me but my mind tells me that if I'm not sweating up a storm I'm not working hard enough.:grumble:

Drevans - can't wait to hear how you like the cookbook! 200 recipes for under 200 cals sounds like a great motivator to get in the kitchen and try something new. It does get hard trying to be creative and I tend to eat the same thing(chicken) quite alot. We need some feedback Hope your w/o is good!

Snarf - Hi! I used to think Tae Bo was the untimate.... until I tried TJ. I think I picked up the bootcamp DVD once since I got this set of TJ. I agree the workout is better, so I'm with you there.

Amanda- I haven't forgotten about the lunch ideas just have been busy:ohwell: aplogies. I'll be sure to get some ideas to you. Great job on your day yesterday - keep on going!!

Michelle - Good job on working out when you didn't feel like it ~ I think those times are the best for my
commitment to what I'm doing, it reinforces it. and I always feel better afterwards.

Megan- hope you're feeling more human today!

((Big Hugs)) to all I missed and I'll check in later,
Janet

Well, my 2nd consecutive day of the 20 minute workout. Wow!!! I really could tell that I was sore from yesterday when I started it. I was smart and came home to work out BEFORE getting the kids. Emma wasn't too crazy about the workout yesterday. Haha! I actually was able to focus more. Now I'm trying to stop sweating before going to get them.

Janet love the picture!!!

Happy St. Patty's to all!!!

Hello,
Finally got around to TJ again. I did so much better this time. Last time I only got 10 min into the 20 min workout and felt kinda silly. Today, I did 40 min. of one of the cardio party ones. I feel pretty proud of myself. The kids are all napping so I'm gonna jet off to a HOT:laugh: bath.:bigsmile:
