Firm Thread Sept. 1-30th

[toystoryduo]

Hi s&k's mom~ I did a 30 days in a row exercise challenge. It was not easy because there were days where I was so tired, I couldn't think straight. On those days, I tried to get in a less intense workout like walking so that at least I was doing something. I'm thinking about doing another one in November because we are heading to WDW in December, but I need to see how October goes first.

Hi Sheree~ My birthday was on Monday.

Hi Kimmy Kim~ Thanks for the birthday wishes in my journal! It was so nice to see you there!

Today is a rest day for me. Hope everyone has a great day!

Thanks Tracy!

Hi guys!

I am taking an unplanned rest day today--my nephrologist added two new meds (one of which has drowsiness as a side effect), and although I was fine yesterday, I'm just really exhausted today. For the first time in as long as I can rememember, I think I'm going to take a nap.

I hope you all are enjoying a lovely day!

Kim,feel better!!!

S&k'smom, I usually do something that just really makes me feel good. A good book a good movie, playing with the kids. All of that pumps up my energy. I hope you can find your source!!!

Tracy, Happy belated Birthday!!! I hope your day was wonderful!!!!!!!!

Today I did lowmax premix #2. I'm still congested and it is hard to get breathing right! However, I finished it and was still a drench fest. Anyone have a bucket???????? LOL.

I hope everyone has a wonderful, wonderful day

For anyone who may be interested in BSS4, it's at Overstock very cheaply!

***EDITED TO ADD: I didn't notice before, but it's a preorder--not shipping until Decimber. Still a great price, though!

 

[s&k'smom]

Wow that is a good price. I love this website, I have gotten really good deals with them.

 

[luvmydogs]

Well, I woke up this morning peeing blood, so I'm off to see the nephrologist at 9:30. I've reaaaaaaalllllly had enough of this.

I'm guessing no working out for me for at least a few days, but I hope the rest of you FIRMies have a wonderfully happy, healthy Wednesday.

 

[sm4987]

Oh Kim! Let us know what the Doc. said.

I did stretch max, allie's add on and alison's abs today!


have a good day today

 

[s&k'smom]

Kim you and your pee!!! Post as soon as you can and give us an update.

I've decided to wallow in misery another few days and start fresh on my eating and working out. I'm gonna try a cleaning diet and last tiime I did this it worked very well. I just got to realize I need to stay away from certain foods and even if it kills me work out.

 

[luvmydogs]

Kim you and your pee!!!

I KNOW!!! Dang pee.

Infection not covered by the myriad of other antibiotics I'm on right now, Dr. thinks. Why? Who flippin' knows anymore, I'm just tired of it, and wish I could get this stupid kidney yanked right out of me!

I hope next week brings you a fresh start and brand new perspective, s&k'smom! (Fairly) clean eating and exercise is how I lost the weight--I was never able to stick to a more regimented program in the past, and this is what finally worked so very well for me. We'll be here cheering you on!

Thanks for the hugs, Sheree'!

Have a good evening, everyone!

Hi everyone,

Well don't fall off your rocker, but I did Total Sculpt plus abs last night. I am in need of some serious inspiration and help in getting myself back on track. When I get going there isn't any stopping me, but getting going is my problem. This WISH Biggest Looser challenge is really helping me. Hopefully I'll be back to full TIME FIRMing and Running.

Total sculpt was easy and hard. Easy because its really one of the easier sculpting tapes in my opinon, but because I haven't been doing much lately I still felt it. That's why I went back to the basics of where I originally got hooked on the FIRM. I figured I'd get back on track slowly.

Kim- I hope you get your kidney thing fixed. That doesn't sound good at all.

Hi everyone! I actually got back from Las Vegas a few days ago, but I haven't posted because I've been in a serious funk since I got back. I couldn't figure out what was wrong until TOM arrived yesterday, then the light bulb went off in my head. Yeah, sometimes I little dense. Anyway I'm already starting to feel better.

Yesterday, I got back to working out with JFArms and JFAbs. I was feeling weak and tired and initially thought it was because of the week-long layoff. Today I had more energy and did Step Blast. Great workout, but I find if my mind starts to wander, I get lost in the choreography.

I come home to find TEMPTATION in the form of Cathe's new DVDs. I am seriously considering pre-ordering them because they are such a good price, plus ordering a couple I've really wanted. I figured I can always try out the new ones and if I don't like them I can sell them for at least what I paid. Decisions, decisions.

Have a wonderful Thursday!!

 

[sm4987]

Good afternoon everyone!

Norma, I pre-ordered them already. Happy to know that in a couple of months, some new workouts coming!

I did hight step challenge today. I really like this wokrout. Cathe really knows how to make you body work and sweat!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was dog tired when I finished

Have a good one all!

 

[sm4987]

Good afternoon ladies. I did the Timesaver workout today and combined 2. I did the cardio only of #2 and #4. I realized when I finished I had lost my mind!!!!!!!!!

Have a wonderful Friday!

 

[norma1223]

Good afternoon all! I'm still easing back into exercising today with Aerobic Body Shaping. Tomorrow will be a run or maybe LowMax if I'm feeling really energetic.

 

[s&k'smom]

Well tomorrow's my last day of self imposed rest. I get back into exercise and better eating Sunday. Being a little OCDish myself having a set day helps.

Kimmy Kim~ Hi sweetie! I want you to know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. Any news on what's going on? and for you.


Well.... I haven't had much time to exercise this week and I've been medicating my down feelings with lots of junk food. I'm very afraid to get on the scale. I'm hoping that I will get some time this weekend for a good workout and that I will get a chance to plan the week ahead.

I hope everyone has a good weekend.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims of hurricanes Rita and Katrina.

 

[s&k'smom]

Tracy honey, know what you mean, had ice cream for dinner last night!

 

[sm4987]

Low max for me today. My legs are feeling like Jello!!!! Speaking of jello, that sounds good right about now!! Oh, guess I'm a little hungry

Have a good one

 

[s&k'smom]

Well I've been up for 2 1/2 hours and I haven't cheated on my diet yet! Got in about 20 mins of Taebo and plan on longer workout tomorrow. I think the pizza last night put me over the edge.
