Good morning everybody happy april fools day to all.

Well did my tae-bo dvd this morning boy that is hard I think it will take a couple of times before I get to grips with it though couldn't get my coordination quite right for some of the moves but still tried.

Yesterday got totally hooked on DDR and when I checked I had been playing for three hours don't know what to class that as. It really gets the heart rate up and I was soaked by the end of it I suppose dancing is probably the closest to logging this.

Might go on my elliptical for a bit later on or I may just play DDR again for 1 hour only though my legs are killing me at the mo.

Hope everybody has a good day.

    Good morning,

    I was up at 5:30am and did my turbo jam cardio mix 1. I feel great!
    In a couple of hours I'm gonna get on the elliptical for 30 min and possibly do my TJ lower body.
    I went over 1400 calories yesterday (yikes!). I felt like crap from eating too much last night but I'm over it now and today is a new beautiful day!!

    Happy April Fool's Day:flowerforyou:

    I've decided to go back to Hip Hop Abs Total Body Burn for a month or so. I did the Biggest Loser DVD's for 12 weeks and lost 14 pounds & tons of inches but I'm bored. I found that I am more able to keep up with Shaun on the Video this time around.

    It's supposed to hit 62 today so I'm hoping for a mile long walk when my son gets out of school.

    Have a GREAT day!

    Today is the gym for my old friend the elliptical and the rowing machine. (I've got this 20 min el./20 min. row/20 min. el sandwich I do)
    Then weights at home,
    then dance tonight. Busy day in prep for my day off tomorrow! And, I'm ordering my HRM today! It's my end of the year treat (school year, or at least teaching year ended yesterday for me).

    Happy Tuesday!:flowerforyou:

    62 sounds wonderful! The air has be running for a couple of weeks now. The low tonight should be in the 60s, so if the humidity would go down, I could open the windows.

    My butt was sore yesterday from all the lunges in BL workout - so no weights for me. I did some curls and triceps, but didn't go to class as I knew there would be more lunges and squats. My butt is still sore today.

    HRM update #3:
    wore the HRM to yoga - and we had the easiest class we've had in months! Everything was supported, ugh. The highest it went was putting the chairs away! Too bad I didn't take a resting heart rate during savasana. I ordered Rodney Yee's new video Yoga Cross Train, so maybe I'll try wearing it when it arrives.

    Yesterday was yoga and walking. Today is elliptical during Oprah (Dr. Oz is going to be on talking about night terrors).

    Yipee! I added another lap around the lake onto my trail run for a total of almost 6 miles and I'm averaging about a ten minute mile. I need to push the effort, but trying to get back slowly from my crud.

    Need to do my lifing but not sure I'll have time today. May have to change things up this week.
    No weight lost, but no gain either. Still trimming inches off slowly. I'll take a picture tonight & try to get it posted.

    Great start ladies!

  • Happy April 1st to everyone... I woke up not feeling well so I went for a light 30 min walk instead of intense aerobics... felt much better afterwards... then did my upper body workout and stretch... I went way over on calories last night which is probably why I felt like crap this morning... oh well today is a brand new day...
    Have a great one and I will catch up with ya later...

    Good Morning! Off to a bunch of meetings today, so the workout will have to wait until tonight.

    Have a great April Fool's Day!

    Today I'm aiming for:

    1. Eat slowly and mindfully
    2. Drink green tea and take vitamins
    3. 20 minutes weights, 30 minute walk tonight
