Wow! Guess everyone as been busy this past week! Hope everyone is doing well. I only got two days of exercise in this week, but eating hasn't been too bad - lost a little over a pound so not all bad! Have a great weekend!

Hi all! Yes, December if flying by! I have the house decorated and most of the Christmas shopping done. I'm a "wait til the last minute" to get things wrapped so none of that is done yet. I'm like Maureen in that I forget what I've bought and usually end up with too much! Cindy, hope the holiday party went well. I only…

Good evening! Well, I believe I'm giving up on JMBR. I don't have any trouble getting up on Wednesdays when it's my run day, but can't seem to get the motivation for JMBR the rest of the week. I'm going back to running four days a week and try some new dvds for strength workouts two days a week. I've heard of the Focus…

Good morning! Well, this wasn't a good week for me for exercise. I think it's a mental block with week 5 and 6 of JMBR so not sure if I'll jump to week 7 or try something different. Did get my run in on Wednesday and will run today. Cindy, which beach body program? Did you like it? Lisa, great job on getting in 30 minutes…

Hi! Is anyone still out there??!! :# Started week 5 (again) of JMBR. Arms are sore, but it's a good thing. Back to work tomorrow after 11 days off :\ . Hope all are well!

Great job JeriAnne!! That's a lot of lost inches - nice :D . I kind of want to stay on workouts 3 and 4 because I started 5 today and my arms are sore! Good sore, but wow!! Going to keep going though - hopefully tomorrow is better!

Good morning! So far so good this week. Been exercising everyday and didn't overeat on Thanksgiving! Over 'guestimated' at the calories I ate that day, but wasn't sure how to log a little of this and a little of that. Will walk/run today. Hope everyone is doing well!!

Happy Monday! Whew, been a busy last few days. Made several desserts today for Thanksgiving - not going to eat any of them though (ok, just one mini chocolate cheesecake on Thanksgiving day, but that's it :) ). Been cleaning as well and got my JMBR in today so burning calories!! Woohoo! It's awesome being on vacation! I…

Good morning all! Well, not a great week for me. Work was stressful and I didn't eat well or exercise (got 1 day in :'( ). I'm on vacation now until after Thanksgiving (woohoo!). I am making a plan to eat better (except on Thanksgiving Day :) ) and exercise every day. Yep, every day, either walking, running or strength…

I was supposed to start week 5 this past week, but work got in the way. I'm on vacation now until after Thanksgiving (woohoo!!) so I'm going to redo week 3/4. Yep, I was the same way after starting week 3/4 - couldn't walk for a couple days!! Feels good though. I too have the same issue with the tree pose and raises, left…

Hello all! Missed exercising yesterday, but since I ran Sunday figured it can't be all bad to skip one day. Got my workout in today - JMBR Week 5. Still going well, but it is getting tougher. Cindy, glad your feeling better. I am all in with celebrating with a glass of wine (actually Michelob for me - never really liked…

Just checking to see how it's going. I was supposed to start week 5 today, but had to go in to work early. Will start tomorrow! Going much better the second time around.

Good morning! Got my run in this morning. Hope to get at least 5000 steps in today cleaning as well. Maureen, congrats on the weight loss! Every bit makes a difference. Great snag on the weight gym. I would love to have one, but it would never fit in my exercise room. Hope everyone is doing well. Have a great weekend!

Good evening all! Well, hasn't been a great week for exercise or eating. I'm going to strength train tomorrow and run Saturday and Sunday. There, I've said it, now I HAVE to do it! Will have to repeat week 4 of JMBR next week. Not happy about that, but that's what I get for slacking off. Am going to plan meals for the week…

Hi all! I've gotten back into the exercise groove but my eating is awful! For some reason, everything I've eaten lately is high in sodium. Need to get back to veggies for snacks and decent meals. Haven't planned my meals for the couple weeks and I can tell! At work......so gotta run. Have a great day!

Good morning! Was going to get up and run this morning, but my son brought me breakfast in bed! So will run this afternoon. JMBR is still going well - major soreness today, but I'm loving it! The workouts are about 30 minutes including the warm up. I tried the RI30 a few years ago, but never made it to the third phase.…

Good evening all! JMBR is going really good. I'm sore from head to toe, but it's a good sore! Feeling stronger and liking it better the second time around. I took most of our candy to work so the temptation isn't at home, but I'm having a hard time staying out of it at work now! Maureen/Cindy, I was in that same slump…

Good morning! Yep, it's Monday. I'm off today, so at least it's a good Monday! Will get my JMBR in today. Maureen, glad the shingles are intact!! We've been pretty lucky here with lots of sun, but it's been VERY windy Cindy, I love the Holiday Lose 'Em campaign. Wish we had something like that where I work! I keep trying…

November goals: Run/walk 50 miles Plan meals At least 5 workouts each week

I'm on my second go around. I finished the first time, but just barely. Never used any of the modified versions. This time I'm in a little better shape, but having trouble getting up at 5:15 am to get it done! I'll be starting Week 2 on Monday. Want to be 'ripped' by the holidays :D

Good morning! Wow, what an *kitten* indeed about the costume! Unreal! Got a bit of the flu bug yesterday. Had the day off so went shopping and ended up coming home early. :\ Husband took son trick or treating and it was a cold one. No chance of snow yet thank goodness! Didn't get my exercise in yesterday. Feeling better…

Been up at 5:15 am the past two mornings for workouts - JMBR and ran today. Have a mind set to keep the 5:15 am thing going, even on Saturday and Sunday. I've read you should get up at the same time every morning so it doesn't disrupt your "system". I'll see how it goes!! - Cindytw, we had the same mold issue in our old…

Good morning! Lisa, glad are ok after the fall! Cindy, good idea about eating before going to the party. Hope all went well! Didn't run yesterday - well not on the treadmill anyway. After the housecleaning, my son and I carved pumpkins and then ran around outside. It was a beautiful day. So not a "technical run", but still…

Good morning! Will run today. The afternoon thing seems to be working so will stick with that for awhile. Lisa, I know what you mean about feeling old some days. I too feel I am in the best shape I have ever been, but like this week - started JMBR and am still sore from Tuesday! My son told me yesterday he was going to…

Evening all! Got my JMBR workout in today. It's definitely easier this time around. I'm using heavier weights and doing the modified version for most of it. Feel pretty good about that! Cindy, holy floating pumpkins batman!! Wow! We've had one day of rain this week, but other than that it's been in the 70's. I run on the…

Good afternoon! Was in to work early this morning again so ran when I got home tonight. A little sore from JMBR yesterday, but all is good! Cindy, I checked out a video on line - those outfits did make me chuckle, but it looks like a good workout! Cindytw, lazy days are great and definitely needed once in awhile! Lisa,…

Hi! Up late this morning. Took the day off to spend with my son. We went into town and had a great day! Will start JMBR tomorrow. Lisa, glad you had a great time at Mama Mia - yep, have to do that once in a while for sure! Cindy, let me know how 80's buns of steel is - always looking for something fun and different - even…

Good morning! Well, I'm a little sore today from four hours of cleaning out the gardening yesterday. My fault since I haven't been doing any strength training for over a week. Tomorrow I start JMBR, so will rest and recoup today....well...after I clean the garage and wash windows :) . Have a great Sunday!

Happy Saturday! Well it's been a busy - only got my exercise in on Monday. Was up at 5:30 every morning, but only so I could get to work. Had to be home by 4 pm each day when my son gets off the bus, then it was running here and there moving equipment and combining - yep, it's harvest season again! Up early again this…

Good evening all! Ran today. Tonight actually. Didn't get up early enough this morning - I really don't like Mondays!! Wasn't a good run, but at least got it in. Welcome back Cindy - glad you had a great vacation! Cindy, catch you in a few days - have a great week! Happy Thanksgiving Maureen! Yep, would have to agree that…
