Congrats Philly! Whenever in doubt you could put hand weights on the scale to make sure it's not messing with you.

Off to get Jillian done! No messing around tonight, this is serious!

Good morning everyone
Happy Monday, Happy Week

Ugh, another work week begins. We're supposed to be interviewing this week.

I got Jillian done last night, I'm dead tired right now. ZzzzzzzzzZ

See everyone tonight.

I got on the scale and I'm SHOCKED I didn't gain even an ounce from that pasta. Whew!! Ok I can move on with my life now...

Gabi Knew you'd be okay. Good luck with the interviews!


Today I'm planning for Walk Away the Pounds. I'll do something more intense if I have the energy but there are a lot of other things I want to focus that on today.

ETA: Just finished ChaLEAN Extreme Burn Intervals. I modified a bit, but very happy with the intensity I gave. Tomorrow will either be WATP or rest. Hope you all have a great evening.

Hello Everyone!

Today was a crazy day. I cooked turkey wings yesterday for the first time this year I think. Well me and my brother were sick for most of the night into today. Sorry for the tmi.

Gabi, Yay, interviews...finally! Let's just hope they hire someone competent.

Bunneh, you've been on a streak lately. Good for you!

Exhale, did you make the lentil smoothie?

Today is gonna be a late one. Got lots of work to do plus I have a job interview that I need to prepare for tonight but I am going to the gym no matter what. That's the commitment it takes. Being busy is not an excuse for not moving my body. I will leave a post confirming that I went just to keep myself on track.

Thanks everyone for being such a supportive space,
Lulu

Lulu, good luck in your interview.

I made it a little more than halfway through Jill and I had to stop. I wanted to keep pushing for as long as I could but my anxiety is acting up for some reason which makes my heart feel like it's coming out of my chest, very uncomfortable. Then I felt like I was going to puke because I ate something too spicy for dinner and it gave me a mild upset stomach.

Also the fire alarm in the building went off (false alarm) which interrupted me and I had to start over because we had to evacuate.

Tonight was just not working. :/

Tuesday is usually my night off so I'll just play it by ear. Goodnight.

Hey guys

Yesterday was a long day. I went to spin and then to body pump. But I was so tired I left body pump after 5mins. Lol! But I'm going to hit body conditioning tonight!

Good morning everybody!

July's been pretty good. My scale has been dropping down, but I could be doing a lot better.

Gabi, could you just go to a movie or something to clear your mind from your work junk? I know it's so all-encompasing that it's difficult, but you've been under so much pressure lately. Maybe a foot massage, or yoga class....? Trip to a mall? Your body is telling you that it's had enough Be gentle with yourself for a bit

SoulSurvivor - spinning looks like fun, too much fun for ME to have

Bunneh, sounds like you're having fun with your work outs.

Lulu, good luck with the interview

Philly, The weather has been so nice the past few days. It's been a pleasure getting things done. I have a lentil smoothie on my menu for today and will report back later.

Have a great day all.
Have a great day everybody....

Gabi, I was thinking the same thing as what Exhale wrote.

Soul, spin AND body pump in the same day!? That's a lot of activity and calorie burn for one day. Luckily body pump wasn't completed, but goodness take it easy.

Exhale, The temperature is less, but the humidity is still high which makes the weather still not nice. I know, I just can't be pleased. Spring and Fall are my favorite seasons.

Bunneh, how's the book?

My friend convinced me to tell the butcher I'd gotten sick. I wasn't going to say anything. I just wasn't going to shop there anymore. He was very concerned and offered a refund or to replace the product. I really didn't want to ban this place because its very close to work and I shop there often. I opted for a gift certificate and will give them another try thanks to my friend at work.

I told my brother that I was going to start my workouts today. I think he was afraid a little that I was going to have him work out with me...lol. Especially since I had him stretching at every commercial break because he was stiff.

Ok, procrastination time over. Gotta get back to work.

Believe it or not work is actually the least of my problems. I don't even feel that stressed this week over it, schedule has been slow (unlike previous week) I'm more stressed over other things which are out of my control. I get in plenty of retail therapy; pedicures and such believe me. I'm just one of those lucky people that always seems has something frustrating going on. Nothing new, I'll be fine. My BF wonders (in a joking manner) how I haven't jumped off a bridge yet w/ everying life puts on my shoulders but it is what it is. I tell him I must've been a real @ss in a past life. He's a good man for sticking by me.

Back on tonight or tomorrow. Have a good day ladies!

Philly - It's alright. I'm mostly skimming over the diet and fitness suggestions, since I pretty much know all of those tips (and have already found several of them aren't right for me anyway). There's a lot of interesting stuff to help with goals and priorities though, and I find Chalene inspirational even if not all of the book is helpful for me, so I think the buy was totally worth it.

I was 156 this morning even though TOM isn't gone yet, so that's a good sign. Looks like I'll be starting August off on a good foot. Rest day today, hope you all have a great Tuesday. =)

Exhale15 lol it's sooo not fun... Well sometimes, but
Other times it's just >.<

Sometimes I find myself asking god why I'm so fat when I'm in a class. I feel like I must have been the worst criminal in my past life lol!

But yep yet another spin class today. I worked super hard, yesterday was a little too easy for me!
