Hey everyone,

It's a new month so I started a new thread!!!!! Have a great month of exercise!!

JM - I miss you! Poke your pretty little head in here once in a while between dress fittings, would you? Hope all is going well for you!

DADDY - Okay...what's YOUR excuse? You don't have oodles of wedding dress fittings to see to! LOL

P.S. Yes, insomnia strikes yet again.

Karey, great news on the verdict! Surprised nothing about the shot taken at your son though.

Stef, great workout. I think after seeing that, you put me to shame. Good idea about taking a little slow getting back to the workouts for your tricep. You don't want to reinjure it and make it worse than originally.

Btw, I asked this in a PM, but are you a Cowboys fan? Just wondering. I'm a HUGE (literally and figuratively:lol:) Cowboys fan and hate living up here in Norseland. I went down this past October for my first game in TX Stadium. LOVED IT!!!!! Going back for 2008 season or maybe to Green Bay when the 'Boys play over there. Haven't decided yet.

Anyway, today was a "non lifting" day. Did 65 minutes on the treadmill. Running 2.25 miles in a little under 25 minutes @ 5.5 mph. The rest was done @ 4 mph and inclines of 2 and 3%. Burned 1000 calories.

Last night did my first lower body of this cycle so 6 exercises, 7 reps each and 3 circuits. Switched up the exercises and felt good getting through it. Just amusing that the beginning of the cycle goes sooooo much quicker than the workouts at the end. I know, less total reps, just feels like I spend no time in there at the beginning of the cycle. But, I make up for it at the end.

Thanx on the workout, but ALL of us here rock the gyms!

No, not a football nut, but hubby is a MAJOR Cowboys fan! I'm glad you got to that game last year, because unless you already have tickets, you won't go to another one for a couple years. Jerry Jones pre-sold every stinkin' seat to every game through 2010, I think it is. All for the new stadium...which is GORGEOUS, by the way! Of course, you know there ARE ways to get tickets, but you might have to arrest yourself afterwards! :biggrin: LOL

No problems with ticks Stef. Buddy I went down there with was on the Cowboys practice squad in '92 and '93. If he can't get them through the team, he knows alot of people to get them from for really good prices. Really good seats.

And, I thought everyone in Texas was a football nut. Isn't it a law or something?

Ceradad: The aggravated burglary was because they shot at my son. The will get an automatic 5-30 years. So sad. Such a waste for those stupid young men. I guess they were heroine addicts. I guess they'll be clean by the time they get out!

Guess I missed that part.

The important is that your son and your family are safe. I agree that it is a waste of youth, but remember: "Don't do the crime if you can't do the time". One of my favorite sayings.

Hopefully, your family and you can get past this w/o too much turmoil in your lives from here on out. Good luck.

ow Steff. im on the road this week in Cleveland.. busy busy...i have been running a 5k everyday though.

i miss u guys

Missed the gym on Monday, started back to work this weekend and too swollen to hit the gym. Gonna have to take it easier at the gym, because I need to work. :confused2:

15 min ElliptiKILL

30 min Wt Training

100 crunches

Alynne: Hate to hear about your set back, but it hasn't been that long. You're doing great!

look at you Karey with 15lbs to go!

your all doing so well.

another 5k in the hotel exercise room (yuck)

Whose: Don't you love those hotel exercise rooms?! You're doing great! Way to stick with under rather difficult circumstances. It's paying off and it does create those life time habits everyone says you need to be successful!

Good job Daddy on keeping at it on the road!

Here's my totals for today:

Upper body circuit for 30 minutes

Elliptical: 100 minutes-7.75 miles and 1600 calories burned.

I am slacking on my gym time due to the snow but just for fun today 60min. zumba, and 2-20 min exercise videos on the Exercise on Demand...My kids have been home two days this week....Now I love them but I do look forward when they are at school...Have a great work out week...

Had a good work out today. I'm down another pound! YEAH! I've got a head cold and am a little worried, because I can't have surgery if I'm sick! Anyone have any good suggestions for speeding this cold along? I'm taking Cold MD and EmergenC.

Zicam seems to kick it for me.

Jess...snowed in lol. Poor lady... I just got out of Cleveland in time:)

Its funny how when we get 5 inches of snow now nobody even talks about it.

I had a good workout today...back at home in my home gym:) 5 mile run 1/2 mile swim.

O and 20 mins in the hot tub.

Got a haircut today and my hairdresser was all 'omg i cant believe how good you look. youve lost sooo much weight'! So that picked me up a little.

And yeah i have a hot hairdresser. When your a guy you have to have this...just to get the shampoo (didnt even need one as id just come out the shower at the gym)...ok its true...im BAD
