Good Morning!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brrrrrrr it sure is cold outside. It was 9 when I went to Curves. Of course I realize that 9 is a heat wave to some of you. But it's pretty cold for us. We're supposed to have a low of 1 tonight. Now why don't they just go on and say 0? It's pretty doggone close, don't ya think?

Did my Curves circuit this morning. This afternoon I'm going to help hubby paint some windows in the workshop. Hope that burns a few calories!!

Have a great weekend! Stay warm!!

Hugs...........

Have a great weekend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi June!

Wow, and I was complaining that it was cold here!

I am not keeping up with my daily journals, my bad. Yesterday we had a long hike. The dogs had a blast and were exhausted when we got home. It was pretty darned nippy and our thighs were numb by the time we were done. It was fun though.

Have a great weekend!

Hey yourself, Angie!!

I'm good, thank you. How about you? So you did the Jillian dvd? I've ordered some of hers too. I'm hoping they'll be in soon. Amazon had a 5 pack for $17. It was a much better deal to order them that way than individually. Today I went to Curves. I'm looking forward to the dvds to give me some variety. I just hope Jillian isn't too much for this old gal!!

Keep up the good work!!
June

Yeah, I had to start out on level 1 and still had to stop a couple of times cuz I wanted to die. I'm sure you'll do fine with it though. You're in better shape then me. Did you get the Shred DVD? I ordered it because it's a 20-minute workout that I could do when I get home from work. That has been my main problem. I don't have time to do a long power walk after work because it seriously cuts into my sleeping time! When you work night shift everything revolves around sleep, believe me. So I thought the Jillian DVD would be good plus it got so many great reviews at Amazon (like over 600!). I liked it a lot. It's hard but the time flies by. And I like the fact that there are three levels. I peeked at level two and OMG!! Let me know when you get them and how you like them!

The 30 day Shred isn't in the 5 pack. This is the set I ordered.......5-Disc DVD Set: Shape Up - Front, Shape Up - Back, Cardio Kickbox, Maximize - Full Frontal, Maximize - Back in Action. Some of these sound really brutal. Those may just go to my daughter!! I doubt I'm in better shape than you. But one thing is for sure..........I'm several years older!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So these dvds may just kick my booty. I also have one of Bob's dvds. I'm planning to do that one this morning. Whew!

Have a great day!!

Well I must say that it sounds like your sessions with Jillian are working already. That's great!! Keep it up. It's definitely a positive thing.

I went to Curves this morning, and a friend wants me to do one of Leslie's dvd's this afternoon. So Bob will just have to wait. I'll catch him another day!!

I'm off to meet her for our Leslie workout. See you later!
Hugs!
June

ps.......I'm back to say that the Leslie workout was great. It was a 30 minute jogging dvd. I have not seen that one before. Great workout!!

Hey there Miss Angie!!!!!!!!!!!!! How's it going? It was a balmy 4 when I left the house at 7:45. By the time I got to Curves (a whole 10 minutes away) it was 9. The sun is shining, so I'm sure it will warm up a bit today, although they say we'll only get to around 37. Of course, these are the same people who forecast snow for Sunday/Monday and we didn't get nare flake!!!! So we'll see just what it does. But one thing is for sure...........there WILL be weather!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have a great day.

Hiya June! It was freezing here this morning too. I took the day off today mainly because I was TOO SORE! Back to shredding tomorrow though! Stay warm!

Good Morning, Angie!

Hope your soreness is gone. I guess that means the dvd is working. I went to Curves yesterday, but I'm taking today off. I think I'll probably do something here at home.....not sure what yet. I've been having a problem with my arm. It stems from an old injury several years ago. It reared it's ugly head recently, so I'm going to skip out today and probably tomorrow. Hopefully that will be enough to give it a rest so I can go back Monday. Meantime I have a glider here and I can always do a Leslie workout without a lot of punching and lifting my arms. I think the glider actually sounds like the better choice since it really doesn't have to involve arm use at all.

Have a great weekend!!
Hugs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hiya June,

Sorry you're having trouble with your arm. Those types of injuries/pains are so annoying, aren't they? Anything that interferes with my plans annoys me.

Yesterday I didn't exercise either. The soreness was much better but I was just so tired from the previous week at work I just slept and slept. Today is no excuse though. Gotta get back to it or it will be a slippery slope of doing nothing again.

On the plus side, I've finally started losing again since I've been on this new alternate day diet and with the exercise. It's averaging a pound per week which I am ecstatic about! I haven't even been that careful about my eating on my up days so I'm sure if I were even better the weight would be coming off faster.

You have a great weekend too June! I'm putting in some OT this weekend but then I have five glorious days off, hooray!

Congrats on the weight loss. What type of plan are you following? A pound a week is great..........if you lose 1 pound a week for a year......52 pounds gone!!!!!!!!!!! So keep up the good work.

I went to Curves this morning. There is one machine that aggravates my arm, so I'm skipping that one for a while. I just took extra turns at some of the other machines to make up for the one I skipped.

I know your hours are killers. Sometimes you just gotta listen to your body and sleep sleep sleep. But I'm glad you got back to your workout. You're right, it is very easy to get out of the habit. It would be a nice trip, but I'd hate to have to come all the way out there and kick you in your booty to get you going again!!! LOL LOL hehehehe

Have a great weekend!
June
