thanx shannon-- thats my baby at like 1 or 2 months he'll be 9 months in little over a week---

anyway --- update ---
lets see i am starting level 3 of the 30 day shred today--- i missed a day so i would have started yesterday but didnt want to do both level 2 and 3 in one day---
--i also did day 2 of the biggest loser 1 yesterday-so it was the power sculpting day of the workout -- its a really good workout and i'm amazed at how quickly it goes ---bob harper is amazing---

--oh i recently bought jillian's "winning by losing" its a 5 disc set but let me tell you skimming through it ---it looked great---so looking forward to starting that up in a few weeks---

besides 30 day shred with the biggest loser one is enough of a workout--- for now-- anyway==

oh and i bought "the firm" set since i heard it was supposed to be good so looking forward to trying that out in a few weeks or on an off day when i want an extra workout thrown in there--- as well as a trampoline-- ya i'm a dork--- hahah

Hey there ladies!

I'm proud of myself this week, yesterday and today I changed my alarm clock to sleep in and not exercise, then I just sat there awake for a few minutes and made myself get up and just get it over with! For some reason I have not been feeling the exercise vibe at 6:30 am this week at all... Yesterday I dad 30 minutes on the Weider, 20 min kickboxing, 10 min slow elliptical. Today, 30 min HIIT non the elliptical. "An Affair to Remember" was on cable, so I watched that while I worked out. I love that movie!

Angel - I'm jealous that you got outside! It was way too cold outside down here for me... As I found out when I stood in line for 4 hours today in 35 degrees for early voting... I can only now feel my toes again!

Princess - I've heard good things about The Firm set. Let me know how you like it! And, I would love love love a mini-tramp but I've just flat run out of equipment space...

Good day everyone!

oh my excuse is that it totally folds up and fits easily under the couch or something i can take the legs off and just slide it under --- i'm very limited too---i'm currently using my dining room to store my elliptical and hand weights and then doing my dvd workouts in the living room--- we only have one tv at the moment---

Princess - sliding the tramp under the couch is cool... Hmm... I may have to find one like that...

I have to confess I haven't exercised in two days. Yesterday I took as my one per week off day because I had some knee pain from standing on my feet for three hours in the wrong shoes, last night I didn't get home until almost midnight and just couldn't get out of the bed early to workout this morning... I haven't taken two days off in a row in over six months... I'm feeling a little guilty. I am taking my stepson trick-or-treating tonight, but he is only 3 1/2, so we won't do enough walking to make up for the exercise deficit... I swear I'll get back on track tomorrow...

Well the weekend was my days "off" but I still tried to move as much as possible. I cooked a lot on sunday and did my cleaning on saturday.

Today I did a 45 min circuit and a 10 min pilates cool down. I feel really good today, I didnt really want to work out but I knew that after I did I would feel really great. So I am glad that I did it!!

Hi there ladies!
Turns out that we did walk a little over a mile on Halloween, so better than I thought!
I have worked out consistently every day since Saturday, so I'm feeling better. My knees are a little sore today, which isn't normal, so I'm a little anxious about that... Still glad I got up and exercised today though!

Hey Angel!

I flaked again this weekend and didn't exercise Friday or Saturday. I did 30 minutes on the elliptical on Saturday, 10 minutes of ab video + 12 minutes of yoga video on Monday (flaked again on the getting up...), did 45 minutes of elliptical in the AM yesterday + 55 minutes of yoga last night, 35 minutes of kickboxing tonight. When I miss days I tend to make myself do more the next several days to make up for it...

Have a great week ladies! Come back and post! Keep out thread alive!

Hi! I started this thread several months ago and I had forgotten about it!! I'll try to remember to visit more often.

Well, this morning I did 35 minutes on the elliptical and then Namaste Yoga off of FitTV. I had forgotten how much I enjoy yoga since leaving the gym-scene lst year. I got hooked on it while I was a member. Then when we decided to cancel our membership and start back working out at home, I stopped. (We've got an elliptical, treadmill, and bike...plus, LOTS of exercise videos to keep things mixed up!!).

I love Leslie Sansone videos. They're my favorite thing to do for exercise. I own about 15 ofher workouts.

Next week I'm going to try to incorporate some pilates from Denise Austins Hit the Spot Pilates. I also have her Yoga Body Burn DVD which is great. Also probably will try to do Namaste Yoga from FitTV at least once.

Well, hope everyone has a great weekend!!
