Firm for March 14th thru March 31st

[sm4987]

Hey all, I was thinking that maybe we should change over from a weekly thread to a monthly one. This way we just come to the same one and post for the whole month. I notice sometimes we forget to start a new one If this is a bad idea, let me know and I will change the title.

I did maximum cardio burn on the incline step today. Hoping everyone is have a wonderful day!!!!!

HI FIRMies!

Just popping in to give you the latest BSS4 info! This link leads to a Ya Ya thread--scroll down to the 5th post:

Hope you're all doing well! My biopsy's scheduled for tomorrow at 8am, so hopefully I'll have some good news real soon! Love you guys!

Good afternoon, got in taebo yesterday and a bit of firm today. Great idea on the monthly thread.

I send lots of love and PD to you on the biopsy tomorrow luvmydogs. Know we are all with you in spirit.

Kim prayers and hugs!!!!

Well there was a miracle today. I got in a whole workout!! I did Frim cross trainer the upper body part. Of course now I'm ready to go back to bed! I just felt so good completely a workout.

Hi everyone,
I need to start checking in here more often. Sometimes I just get so busy with work I dont'have time to check in. I did FIRM Tough Tape II this morning. Yesterday was 4.5 miles on TM and Saturday was 8.5 miles on TM. Tomorrow should be a rest day, hopefully I will listen. I just had one Sunday and sometimes I feel guilty taking Wed off.

Kim- Prayers and hugs, let us know once you get the results.

Happy Wednesday Firmies!

I'm sorry this is the first time I've had a chance to check in all week. I took a rest day today - just too exhausted physically and mentally this morning but I might do a light Cathe work out this evening just to get in some extra minutes. Yesterday I did Calorie Killer and as Nancy says, you do work up a good sweat. Monday it was super cardio sculpt.

I'm down 2 pounds which brings my weight loss total to 104 pounds! Yay!!

Sherri - I think a monthly thread is a good idea. You're so smart to come up with this suggestion!

Kim - I hope things are okay with you. Please post when you have an opportunity so we know you are alright. Hugs and love to you!!!

s&k'smom - great job on doing taebo and Firm together! Wow!!

I hope everyone else is doing well and will get a chance to post.

Good morning, well I got in another workout this am. I did lower body split. I got in about 50 minutes when DS woke up so I think I only missed the ab part. But wow it's intense. Man am I gonna feel my thighs in the morning. If you want two tough tapes get these two (lower body and upper body split).

 

[luvmydogs]

Hi FIRMies and thank you for all your prayers and well-wishes! I really felt all the loving vibes!

I'm pretty sure my news is good! I was given twilight sedation for my biopsy yesterday and don't remember much, but dh told me that the Dr. said he's fairly certain that the two tumors he removed were nothing but benign calcium deposits. They're usually only seen in women (aren't we so lucky with all the stuff we get to go through?! ). He's going to call with the final results, but I think I'm pretty much in the clear! So I get home from the hospital and sleep off all the sedation, waking up around 6pm. Dh then tells me that I have another ultrasound scheduled for this Thursday. I say "for what?" He says because the Dr. found some 'abnormalities' in my one kidney when he did the dye test/x-rays. OK......Well, dh, what kind of abnormalities, did he find? Dh's answer--"I don't know, he didn't say." So, dh, did you ask? "No. They made an appt. to see you next Thurs. to go over the results." ARRRRRRRRRGH!!! Is it all men, or just mine?!!! So now I have a call in to the Dr. to find out why I'm having yet another kidney ultrasound. Well, anyway, we're 99% sure there's no cancer, so that's great news! And I guess next Thurs. I'll find out about all my abnormalities (oh, do I have a list for him--oh wait--that's a different kind of doctor! ) So now I'm just sitting here, drinking tons of water because I'm supposed to, yet dreading having to go to the bathroom, because it feels like I'm peeing razor blades!!! Sorry--TMI! Oh, pitty, pitty poor me!

Great job keeping up with all your FIRMing, everyone! I can't exercise until I get the all clear from the doc next week. Grumble...grumble...grumble... I thank you so much for all your care and concern--I love you all!

Good afternoon FIRMies!

Kimmy Kim~ I am so glad to hear that the biopsy went well!!! That is such great news Kimmers!!! We'll be saying some prayers about the kidney ultrasound as well. Any news on why you have to have one yet? By the way.... I think it is a "guy thing". I always ask my DH for details on things and sometimes I get 'em and sometimes I don't. Take good care of you sweetie!

Well FIRMies~ This is how my week has shaped up:

Monday: Kathy Smith Kickboxing & Body Sculpt
Tuesday: Super Cardio Sculpt (2X's) and FIRM Abs Day 4
Wednesday: Super Body Sculpt

Whew! I see a rest day in my near future. I hope the weather starts cooperating because I am ready to resume my outdoor walks! Have a great day everyone!

 

[sm4987]

I went to San Antonio yesterday and today so now workouts for me. I'll be back on it tomorrow!!!!

 

[s&k'smom]

Got in the Emily Walsh firm tape today. I love that one. She is just the perkiest little thing. Three days in a row, my thighs are killing me.

 

[ZerasPride]

Good morning Firmies,

I hate rest days, I hate rest days! Yesterday was a rest day and just didn't feel right. I know I need them but I'm so glad I only take them when I am absolutely exhausted. This morning I did Super Cardio Sculpt. That one used to really wear me out but now I hardly break a sweat. I guess that's progress!

Kim - It's so good to hear from you. I'm glad you've got a bit of good news. I hope things go well with your further testing. Please know we are here to support you. {{{hugs}}}

Sheree - I hope your trip is for pleasure and not business.

s&k'smom - I don't have any tapes with Emily but I've heard she's good.

Tracy - wow, your work out schedule sounds tough! You go girl!!! It seems to be warning up a bit here, thank goodness!

 

[luvmydogs]

Hi FIRMies! A big thank you for all your continued well-wishes! I had my ultrasound today, but won't know the score until next Thursday when I have the appt. with my Dr. But I have that 'women's intuition vibe' going again, so I just have this feeling it won't be anything too serious!

I just thought I'd post this new banner add for the new BSS4--I got it at the Ya Yas, although none of the FIRM Believers Club members said they have gotten this offer as of yet. Ooooooooo, look at Allie!

Have a Fun Friday, everyone!

 

[sm4987]

Good afternoon all. My trip to San Antonio was definately for pleasure. The kids are off for spring break so we decided to take a couple of days away from home.

Now I'm back and back into action. This morning was a Cathe workout, total body followed by callorie killer. 85 minutes today!!!!! Boy am I tired.

 

[s&k'smom]

Oh now that was just mean, now I'm gonna want the new workouts. luvmydogs, I so believe in woman's intuition. Keep us posted. Can I have the yaya website again. I didn't get a workout this am as DS was up but this time he was in a great mood and we talked and laughed and had some really nice mommy son time. The rumor is that it's gonna be nearly 50 degrees today so I'm off for a nice, lonnnnnnnnnng walk. Lord I miss walking.

 

[luvmydogs]

Hi s&K'smom!

Here's the Ya Ya site: http://p199.ezboard.com/bfirmbelivers

I thought I had to register to both post and read because it's an EZ Board site, but maybe it's changed. Registration is free. They always have great info, along with a lot of good humor and community. I'm kimmer1210 there--someone else copped luvmydogs!

Have a lovely Friday!

 

[sm4987]

I'm the same over there on the ya ya board. I love the site as it has so much great information, advice, and reviews!!

This morning was 55 minutes of Taebo extreme. I love doing Taebo on a step. I wish he would have done so much more of the tape on the step than he did, but, I'll take exercise in whatever form I can.

Have a wonderful day everyone!!!!
