Congrats everyone on our week 3 win! GO BIG READ! CHOO CHOO!!! (For you rainbowsmiles )

Bummed news today- The gym is closed all this week because here in Korea it is a big holiday for 3 days this week.

Good news- My personal trainer will start up with me again February 7th, 3 times a week.

Better news- Just be the gym is closed, doesn't mean I have a free pass to be lazy this week. I'm going to step it up this week with my Wii exercise/play time, my WATP DVDS, my Richard Simmons Sweatin to the Oldies (for a good laugh), and break out my 30 Day Shred Dvd.

Let's go red team. It's week 4. MAKE IT HAPPEN!!

[Sindaena]

I'm awake and bleary-eyed, ready to start another week of 5AM workouts. Wearing my new VFF's for which I got up at 4:30 an extra day last week - saturday to get in line for the local REI garage sale. Five minutes til I need to be out the door for back, biceps, and abs day, <yawn>.

[JayTee]

Thanks for the congrats ladies and WTG ANGIE, RONAN & DESIDOO!!!

For fun, I'd like to speak in mostly song titles or lyrics this week...

To the blue team on possibly taking the title back next week -- "We Will Rock You" (Queen)

To Angie, Ronan & Desidoo-- (also from Queen)

I've taken my bows
And my curtain calls
You brought me fame and fortune and everything that goes with it
I thank you all
But it's been no bed of roses
No pleasure cruise -
I consider it a challenge before the whole human race
And we aint gonna lose (to the blue team)!

Have a great day ladies!!!!!!

[CourtneyDaisey]

MadamButterfly - Thanks! I definitely am hopping abouard that train with you folks! Gonna kick some butt-er this week!

I am having a lousy Monday. It all really revolves around a co-worker of mine. She is a person who seemed so nice and friendly when I started here a year ago. Unfortunately her true colors are showing now. She is not a friend. She is a user. She will take from people what she can and then throw you away and treat you like crap. I reached my limit today. I m not going to let her use me as her darn puppet any longer! Forget her! I will be professional and ppolite when forced to deal with her at work but I am so not going to tolerate being her floormat anymore!

This person has even been trying to get me to write her papers for a college class she is taking. I am not going to help her cheat! I am not going to take the fall for her when she fails to get accounts set up on time! Her user ID can be tied to it in the system, not mine! No longer will I "be a team player" and cover up her mistakes. To heck with that!

Grrrrrr!

Hey Red Team! I just read this weekly challenge that Jillian Michaels posted on her Facebook. I'm going to try to do it this week. How about you??

Challenge for this week: Mon-Fri I want my women to burn 300 cals a day and my men to burn 500 cals. Cook one healthy new recipe under 500 cals per serving. Try one workout you have never done (Cross fit, Sword fighting, Yoga etc.)

The new workout I've never done will be Just Dance tonight. I've also got plans to try a new healthy recipe tonight - the cauliflower "alfredo" sauce with pasta.

[rainbowsmiles]

sorry this is so long....and if any one is offended by a spiritual song, just skip this message.

jaytee....hows that rage of the machines working out for ya!! LOVE IT!!
i feel that way sometimes...when i am working out...i get mad because i feel like half my life has passed me by and i was robbed...of doing some of the things i wanted...i'm tired of being fat!! i'm mad!! and i want it all back!!
and i'm gonna ride this train for as long as it takes...to melt all this butt-ery goo gone!!!

ok u want song lyrics...here is one i play on my mp3 player while working out...
its called

I WANT IT ALL BACK!!

because all these years of being fat...have robbed me from some of the joys i could have had...i was robbed...and now this year, i'm gonna get it all back...all of it...all the joy...all the hope...all the things i've missed...I WANT IT ALL BACK!!

if the devil thought i was throwing in the towel and settling for being fat he needs to think again!! i am not giving up!! i'm gonna come back even stronger!! this storm may be here now, but i'm gonna get to the joyful end!!
(you can hear the song here)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CT0SqO5VgVw


i have a very eclectic list on my playlist....but not one song gets me inspired like this one does...it brings tears to my eyes...even when i am rockin that bike...i get mad and work out harder!!!

(Tye Tribbett & G.A. » I Want It All Back Lyrics)

Come on
Yeah
If you want it all back jump to your feet right now
Lets go
Yeah
We gonna take it back
Somebody scream

I want it all back, everything that you took from me
I want it all back, even my joy and my peace from me
I want it all back, everything that you got is mine
I want it all back, listen devil....

You may have though you won that last round
You may have laughed (cuz) I almost fell down
Maybe you think I give up easy
But it's not over I got more in me
You thought I stopped you thought I sat down
But I am standing you made me mad now
You got somethings I think you owe me
I've come to get back everything that you stole

I want it all back, everything that you took from me
I want it all back, even my hopes and my dreams from me
I want it all back, everything that you got is mine!!
I want it all back, ladies...say...

You hit me hard I should be knock out
Things i've been through don't even wanna talk about
You crossed the line (this time) you violated me
I want revenge (I want everything back from) A to Z
The battles not mine the battle is the Lord's
In the name of Jesus i'm taking it by force

I want it all back, everything that you took from me
I want it all back, even my joy and my peace from me
I want it all back, everything that you got is mine
I want it all back, right here, right now....
I want it all back, anybody else mad with me, come on
I want it all back, i want my joy and my peace come on,
I want it all back, everything that you got is mine,
I want it all back, fellows say it....

If you only knew what I was gonna be
after the storm you wouldn't have even bothered me
If you only knew what I was gonna be
after the storm you wouldn't have even bothered me
If you only knew what I was gonna be
after the storm you wouldn't have even bothered me
If you only knew what I was gonna be
after the storm you wouldn't have even bothered me

Devil if you only knew what I was gonna be after the storm
You wouldn't have bothered me
Yeah

(But now i'm) stronger
(And I got more) power
(I'm a little bit) wiser
(And I got more) strength
(I got thee) anointing
(Got God's) favor
(And we're still) standing
and we want everything you took from us!!
right here right now, come on...
I want it all back

(Man give me my stuff back)
Give me my stuff back
Give me my stuff
Give me my stuff back
I want it all
Give me my stuff back
Give me my stuff
Give me my stuff back
I want it all

what about your peace he took, I want that
what about your strength he took, I want that
what about your power he took, I want that
and what about your love he took, I want that

What about your family and all your self-esteem even your destiny? (I want that)
What about the joy you tasted & the time you wasted do you want it back? (I want that)
What about your place in God & all your faith in God even the ways of God (I want that)
What about your hopes & dreams & your communities even your kids and teens? (I want that)

what about the love he took, I want that
what about your strength he took, I want that
what about your joy he took, I want that
and what about your power he took, I want that

What about your family and all your self-esteem even your destiny? (I want that)
What about the joy you tasted & the time you wasted do you want it back? (I want that)
What about your place in God & all your faith in God even the ways of God (I want that)
What about your hopes & dreams & your communities even your kids and teens? (I want that)

I want that
Want that
Want that
Want that

I want it all back
