Come on with us then :) The more the merrier! We leave Miami Dec 22 - six weeks yesterday! I'll even volunteer to look after baby - plus the couple we're travelling with has a 14 year old daughter for the times we want to work out ;) (like THAT's going to happen!!) How long do you get for maternity leave? In Canada it's up…

HAHA - he stayed in bed this morning while I worked out. He did do it later and said it was tough but I wasn't there to witness how tough it was ;) Mine was brutal - I tweaked something in my shoulder doing those beloved (not) plank rows! I can't turn my head - shoulder checking while driving was a real challenge! So it…

I was wondering what your hubby's name was LOL I don't think you ever have used it. Only Hubs :) Great numbers Jen - that's awesome. I'm sure you can do 100lbs! I checked out the differences between Supercharged and 4Life - they're pretty similar except 4Life is much shorter. But the workouts are set up exactly the same -…

That drives me insane when Wes leaves crap in his pockets! I keep any money that I find o:) With him it's usually packages of gum! I washed his iPod once - I could hear music when I was taking stuff out of the dryer - I'm surprised it still worked! - The leave raking sounds nasty - I'd rather shovel snow!

I guess whichever way we're doing it works because we have seen results! Nyxon got me a Garmin forerunner for my birthday :) Now that it's snowed there won't be any running outside until spring but I am going to compare the HR function with my polar to see if they're similar. Went out for breakfast and did some Christmas…

iPad has a dictation function? Who knew? LOL You can't go wrong with Catholic cookies and cat food ;) So far so good - I've been able to stay away from Wes's germs. I'm sure I'd have picked it up by now if I was going to. I'm not sure I like high rep workouts - that usually means lower weights to be able to get it done.…

Is supercharged all 15 rep sets? That's brutal - that's what was so hard about stage 7 and made me take so long to get it done. 6-8 is a nice round number :) How many days of each A & B do you do? Wes has been sick all week with a cold/flu so I've been shredding on my own. I'm going to try for level 3 on the weekend. Give…

that does sound yummy! Meg, I don't think you'll be less than the bar - but it's probably a good place to start and get your bearings. Jen, you (and I - and Meg when she's back fulltime) could probably squat 100 in a single rep! I don't quite see the point of single rep maximums tho as repeating one rep isn't going to get…

I know Jen. I'm definitely stronger and my waist is more defined but I haven't changed sizes at all. I've been at this for almost 4 years now so I'm pretty used to it lol

The end is near Meg! Getting closer every day! B)

How sweet - I too, totally forgot it was about a year ago we all started! Although I had a couple of months of under 150, all the travelling I did in October pushed it right back over :'( Pretty much the exact same place as a year ago LOL

I must have had 20 pieces on Friday throughout the day! Pretty much my entire intake was made up of candy LOL Popcorn for lunch and then chased it all afternoon with chocolate. Had dinner and MORE chocolate! It was a good day ;)

I'm glad I didn't send you my box of candy. We had way more TorT'ers than I expected. We probably saw about 30 kids! Lots left over so some will be coming your way :) Just not as much as I expected LOL

He is isn't he? He looks just like his big brother :) Adorable little Asian babies with blond curly hair!

Yes Jen, that is Easton. He was born July 1. Technically not one of the grandkids, but close enough :) he's Aaron's sister' son. That wasn't even his costume - this is (sorry I don't know how to make it smaller)

Hopefully this worked. Happy Haloween!

They sound effective! In level 3 of the shred there is a weighted plank row. Very tough!

Keep up the good work Jen! Those are some pretty nice numbers! How much do you pull for the plank pull downs? The split squat? Is that basically the weighted stationary lunge? I liked those.

I gave in. TOM was craving chocolate lol Do you think it was the wine that made you cranky? After not having any for so long it must have had some sort of effect, no? I will actually be glad to get some home cooked meals! While I like dinners out, three times a day is a little much! Especially when it's not vacation lol

They're still here today - have to stop myself from grabbing a cup and filling it up. Only 1/2 day today but TOM dropped by so I think resistance might be futile!

I was doing really good until I saw the peanut m&ms! Oops o:)

Yes only one more day! There's an entire system not running and most of us are out of here by noon tomorrow! Not sure what they're going to do if they don't get it working... PS there's a stash of Costco chocolates in the room :D among other things like full size chocolate bars! I've been pretty good at staying away from…

Such a cozy room! It's getting closer every day. I agree with Jen - sounds like you're as ready as you can be :) My arms are jelly just reading about your workouts Jen. I miss it and will be getting back to it soon. My week so far in Calgary has been the week from hell. I can't sleep - it's 4:30 am as I type this :'( We…

I wouldn't call it ruined. Enhanced maybe, but not ruined ;) Yes, I'm an enabler LOL I missed your supercharged update - so what's your program like? It seems odd you'd be using different muscles. Didn't we just use them all so recently? No flashing lights in my head yesterday or today - YAY!!! I'm going to do the BWM…

Fitbit Jen, that's all I can say ;)

Nope - Calgary again this coming week. Then it should go back to normal :) Just in time for my birthday lol. That means even more food and drinks! I think I've decided there is no 'normal' anymore! Are you liking the supercharged? I still want to get back to lifting one of these days. Gotta get thru Jillian first :p Do…

Unfortunately things like that do happen here - all too often I'm afraid :'( You guys just never hear about it lol. I just love days I'm not in the office but then I never seem to make it in here. I haven't been sleeping well so not much exercise has been happening this week. Waking up between 2&3 really sucks when the…

You want me to send half to you Jen? ;) I'm sure Meg will share LOL After the last couple of days you've had you could probably stand a sugar overload! Off to donate blood this morning. Then it's a BBQ for the United Way and dress rehearsal for our closing ceremonies. It's going to be a tough day LOL Top it off with dinner…

DONE what's your address??

Wes has always been the kind of guy to do things against the grain. One year we both did aqua-aerobics - his friends teased him because they thought babes in bathing suits. They've obviously never been to a class LOL. It wasn't that bad - at the time (probably 20 years ago!) those ladies were the age I am now ;) Our…
