aawwww.... I got starred **** lol

I'm gonna put this here because I love you guys. You don't have any bad features. Not a single one of you. You are all beautiful, awesome and amazing. Even down to the lumps, bumps and cellulite that we all have. You are not defined by how you look, but by your beautiful nature. Don't compare yourselves to anyone else - it…

I'm in the after-lunch, feeling sleepy and need a nap stage... 1.5hr meeting this morning, ran errands, and then got home only to turn around and go pick up 'sick' boy child from school. To turn around in about an hour's time to pick up the girl child... I want a nap lol I'm having a rest week next week. I finish up S&P3…

Woke up ok and got smashed with a headache over breakfast?? Stupid hormones. Gave up and got coffee with a friend after dropping the kids at school. Cramps, headache, freaking sore and couldn't care less about anything today. I've bought painkillers, promise to actually remember to take one with lunch. I shall get the bare…

Weekly summary? This week I lifted on Monday, but my afternoon run was cancelled due to sick kids (not mine). Tuesday I got bored and did a 30-ish minute light cardio circuit. Wednesday I lifted AND walked around the stupid shopping centre getting the boy's arm cast off. Thursday I fiddled with the cardio circuit to the…

I think it comes down to comfort and personal choice. Chalk or liquid chalk would also be a good option. I use gloves because I work every day with clay and water - any cut or rip to my hands means I can't work, which means no money... so I wear gloves :wink:

You can find the logs on werkit.com, but I think you have to have the book handy to access them (first few words of a certain page or something like that) :)

I am so totally trying those push-ups! They look painfully fun lol Struggling to get going this morning, but I have coffee on board and I will make it. I worked an extra hour yesterday afternoon, so at least I'm a little bit ahead today. Jo will appreciate this... husband texts me on his way to work... Magpie season has…

Sleeeeppppppyyyyyy.... Which is what you get when you stay up with the husband while he's doing an assignment because he wants you to edit the damn thing. Oh well. It got done and submitted :smile: I am so freaking glad that by the time I am 40yo (in 4 years time *sob*) I will have a 16yo and a 12yo and they can look after…

28'C today!!!!! There's a bit of cloud, but it's WARM. Got my sweat on in the garage during my session. This afternoon's run should be interesting :sweat_smile: My gorgeous Pmag!! :heart: Start slow sweetie and go from there, you've got this :kissing_heart: Jo, you need to live closer lol Or I need to move... I'm happy…

Hiking in Tasmania is seriously awesome. We used to hike (we also call is bushwalking here) a lot before kids. We'd organise road trips around different places we wanted to walk and photograph (one person carrying the camera gear, the other the hiking gear & food). Now the kids are older, we're getting back into it. By…

Janie, I've not had sore collarbones either, sorry! I've found S&P to be longer, although my longest session was yesterday (S&P3) at about 85 minutes because my arms were fried and I took rest periods like a pro lol But I have the benefit of having everything set up how I want it and not having to share, so I have it a lot…

My butt hurts lol A deadlifts session followed by a 4km run is an interesting combo :wink: My house is clean and I must work, but thought I'd check in on you lot first :smile: Beeps, 95 is better than 50, which is better than 10, which is better than nothing, unless you're doing bodyweight exercises, in which case, they…

Afternoon lovelies! Sorry I've been a little MIA, been busy again! Currently hitting my head against the bench reading about how Paleo cures every.fricking.thing... I have issues. I know that crap makes me mad, but I still read it. In other news I have found an accredited brand new university degree - online! Yay!! A real…

Go into a store and try on what they have and go from there :) I can't remember the brand I have... they have a spider on them though lol They had the smallest size and were comfortable for me (I have kid-sized hands).

Oh, and I added weight to my squat and it was fine. :relaxed: I need to find the Nerf gun and get the cat off the kitchen bench.... :naughty:

I'm Baaaa--aaaackkkk! And I am totally having a chocolate biscuit with my coffee. Because it's delicious. I also have celery. Because I'm weird. And I'm okay with that. :mrgreen:

My head cold is back - pfft. Work and then gym time. That should make me happy :smile: Squats today for me. I am currently having issues with squats. Not sure why exactly yet, but I will get to the bottom of it (get it... hehe... :sunglasses: ) And then I'll come back and post something so we can have something more to…

Today is my girl's 12th birthday :smile: The grin on her face when she opened the parcel with the Black Widow bobble head in it was brilliant! She was stoked. And now I have to finish prepping dinner and tidy up for her little dinner tonight. She's going to help me with party prep tomorrow. I was a bit sad to not be able…

Welcome majigurl! :smile: I'm coming down with a cold. NOT happy. But I have bought most of my girl's birthday presents. She's turning 12 on Friday :heart: I just don't want to get sick when I have so much to get done for her birthday. Cupcakes for school, "cheesecake" for Friday dinner and double-layered polka dot cake…

I don't like winter. I don't like wind. I don't like cold. Just saying :wink: But I got my lifting done. AND the groceries, with children in tow.

Janie, go for it. No problems with repeating a stage, I do it sometimes due to unexpected time off etc. Slow and steady is my motto lol It's snowing at the farm. It's snowing at my brother's place. That's 2.5hours from here. I'm in the sub-tropics.... We can't get there today, and it's killing me lol Hoping it hangs around…

Good afternoon all! I'm hiding in my office 'working'. One more week of school holidays and the husband is home because he was up a fair bit of the night sick and he's on the hunt to find me stuff to do (we shall not mention that I've run errands, bought him medicine from the chemist, done the washing, cleaned the kitchen,…

Good morning all! It's the 4th here, so Happy 4th July to the US peeps :smiley: No children, and we have some gift certificates to spend, so we're going shopping at the biiiiiig shops! You know the ones... the really busy ones that you try to avoid when you have children who like to wander off :wink: lol Janie, take it…

I have no more vodka left!! :'( Tomorrow I drive the munchkins to the farm!!!! (of course I'm not excited... o:) ) I'm going to do the insane thing and drive down and back in the one day, just because lol Janie, awesome!! I have some exercises that I really don't like. But I find myself scheduling them in purely because I…

Julie, a double sleepover??? You're a brave lady :smile: As for me? Heaps of paper work and filing, school holidays, rainy weather, unexpected guests for dinner tonight and two recorders. In unison. I need a freaking drink.

Adding you now - always happy to have more heavy lifting ladies to chat to :smile:

I don't really like the word 'thin'. Like some others, it has a negative connotation to me. It conjures up images of being malnourished etc. Which I most definitely am not lol However, a friend I hadn't seen for a while recently referred to me as "F'king fit". I'll take that happily :wink: :smiley:

Absolutely Beeps! Blurry is better than nothing :smile: Glad it all went well. Dawn, well done on getting the jog in. Schedule re-arrangements do my head in, but it's always nice when you can work around it. And more sleep is always a bonus. Hope your stomach settles down. Pudding, thank you! I did the bi/tri thing today…

Good luck Beeps! :heart: S&P peeps. What are you doing/have done for Free Zone? I'm hitting a brain block for ideas and keep writing stuff down and scribbling it out lol I start S&P tomorrow and have all the main stuff sorted. Just trying to come up with something interesting and partially fun for the end of the session…
