In Search of My Body vol. 10 - taking it one paper towel at at time

[AKASnowWhite]

Nancy - get your butt back here. I have things to tell you.

listen smarty. I would have LOVED to have been here. Instead, I just endured a ridiculous freak snow storm here that dropped 13" of snow at my house, caused epic damages and power outages. We were amongst the lucky who only lost power for 4 days. However we spent the last 11 days without cable/internet/tv/telephone just finally getting that restored yesterday. (well, not the phone. That appears to be f*ed. ) The kids just went back to school today after missing 7 days. SEVEN. It's been in-freakin'-sane.

Let's see: March trip is the 19th-26th. And WW? Well, I pretty much have decided to join, but last week there was no meeting (no power in the entire state pretty much) and this week I have to work. Nasty 4-letter word, "work" So - next week? I hope? In the meantime I have started journalling and Erin will be checking on Thursday to make sure I'm tracking. So, it's a start.

Ronda - loved your RR. Sitting mid-race? I don't think I would have had it in me to get my legs moving again!

Lisa - so happy you now have internet! I felt so disconnected and isolated for those 11 days when I had no electronic contact with the outside world!

Jo & Kat- nice job on the races!

Karen - did you start running again? Hope the fibro isn't holding you back.

Kelly - for grandma and grandpa! Lisa is right. Keep smiling, keep laughing. It really helps.

Have I mentioned the kitten lately? Oy. He's so danged annoying. Too needy.

So I'm back. Now if we could get miss "dressy fleece" to check in once in a while

holysnow Nancy! That's insane for the end of October/beginning of November! I hope this isn't a precursor to this winter!

Yep, I ran on Monday and did 2.5 before my still-healing toe started to hurt a bit, so I called it a day. felt GREAT! Still having some fibro issues, but mostly in my arms, so I'm still able to run! Yay! running later today as well.

Hi Everyone!

Quick fly-by before work starts!

I can neither confirm nor deny . I just used this on my TR. I LOVE it.

Look at you. LOOK. AT. YOU. Does your hubby know that you would run off with the dirty dog for the weekend? Does he?

He does indeed know - its ok though, because he's on my 'list'

So I'm back. Now if we could get miss "dressy fleece" to check in once in a while

Dressy fleece I had forgotten all about that!

RONDA / KAT Congratulations on the races - you are both true goddesses!

Hope everyone is well

 

[AKASnowWhite]

ok. I've tracked for 3 days now. How come I haven't lost this weight yet

I have a training session with Erin this morning She has always been brutal, but now that she has her own fitness studio, she brings torture to a new level

Crap on the March dates - right after our break. BOO!!!!!! BUt lovely for you.

I figured you had power issues but I was shouting b/c I saw you on FB and wanted to make sure you got your butt back here. Sometimes a break can extend itself.......

Have much to discuss re: exercise. Later. Got to run....

Yeah Karen. Very happy to hear that you're running. Progress.

LIST????????

Even dirty dog has a back up.

ok. I've tracked for 3 days now. How come I haven't lost this weight yet

I have a training session with Erin this morning She has always been brutal, but now that she has her own fitness studio, she brings torture to a new level

Let's hear about the torture!!!!

 

[lisaviolet]

Whoops forgot to say sorry about the power issues.

And PEOPLE I have a trip report running. I would love interaction on it. Actually, I'm craving it. I love starting a TR but not finishing. Hmmmmm, could that be a pattern?

Here it is:

Wow....huh....long time, eh? *looking around* Guess I have some explaining to do...

 

[3DisneyKids]

So I'm back. Now if we could get miss "dressy fleece" to check in once in a while

And I didn't even read this first! HI LAR IOUS

 

[AKASnowWhite]

Crap on the March dates - right after our break. BOO!!!!!! BUt lovely for you.

yeah, Becca is missing some school - but it's a school trip that she is going on, so....yeah. That's it!

Let's hear about the torture!!!!

OMG. I came closer to puking today than ever! Let's see. Where do I start. I'm assuming you know that Erin opened up her own fitness studio. It's about 1/2 mile from Planet Fitness. Right now she only does personal training out of her new place and after Thanksgiving she is adding in some group exercise classes taught by a trainer who worked at my old gym )( <sigh> It's been nearly 4 years! will I ever stop mourning that loss? ) Anyway...she has all kinds of wonderful *toys* there. The usual strength machines, etc, but I don't use those there. Oh no. She doesn't let me use them

She has a Jacobs Ladder (as seen on Biggest Loser). Holy Crap. that thing is KILLER. Her new name for me is "mouth". As in potty mouth. yep. That ladder brings out the best in me Anyway - First I did a circuit of TM fast incline walking, Jacobs Ladder & this crazy rope pull machine (IBEX. If you care to look it up ).

Then it was on to the TRX (suspension training. Again. Look it up.) Seriously - you haven't lived until you've done planks with your feet in the TRX. Then another circuit of kettle bell, squat jumps, jump rope, TRX rows, football side-shuffles....there was more. 10 things total. I can't even remember! Clearly I've been so scarred by the experience that I've blocked it from my memory

I go back next Thursday

And I didn't even read this first! HI LAR IOUS

your ears must have been ringing

 

[3DisneyKids]

Down 6 pounds today (from November 2), so I am beginning to feel for more like ME! Trip--in 5 days! Woot!

 

[AKASnowWhite]

That's so fabulous E!! So glad you are feeling good. Makes it so worth it, doesn't it?

<sigh> now to get myself back to the "feeling good" place in life. I can do this. I know I can

 

[HockeyKat]

Unofficial (Garmin) time? 13.19 miles, 2:44. WOO! PR!! My previous best was 2:49 so I am pretty sure, anyhow. Especially after doing a half last Sunday too. Happy.

 

[AKASnowWhite]

That is AWESOME Kat!

Monday. It's 7:30 in the morning and this week is already off to a shaky start! I'm determined to do well on the food arena this week...

IBEX I must look up. But CRX I'm aware. Erin! She's such a little sweetheart.

What does she call her studio from he!! pray tell.

Good for you Nancy. Much to tell you but right now I'm swamped by my TR - which I started - so I can't complain. No Lisa you can't complain.

But will do soon....

Like I said on FB - OUTSTANDING my little Kit Kat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Down 6 pounds today (from November 2), so I am beginning to feel for more like ME! Trip--in 5 days! Woot!

COME ON! What a little tease you are. Oh by the way I'm going on a trip in 5 days blah blah blah and then poof.

Have you met me?

Oh wait no you haven't. I forgot.

Beyond curious. Where ding dong? WDW? UAE?

CONGRATULATIONS Erika.

 

[AKASnowWhite]

Lisa! I so want to read your TR....I'll get to it soon. Or soon-ish After Thanksgiving (the American one that is ). I'm currently in costume he!!. Doing costumes for the high school production of A Christmas Carol this weekend. My own kid, however, is NOT in it. No, She's doing a production of The Sound Of Music....this SAME WEEKEND.

Yes, I'm crazy. Why do you ask

The good news in all this is, I'm at least eating well, and getting my workouts in. I may not lose, but I think I should be able to at least hold steady!

Look at late night Nancy. I LOVE her. Late night Nancy.

Fantastic. Not on the costumes, costumes, costumes. On the getting everything in.

I bet that school is darn scared thinking about Becca not being there. Ie. Becca and her mama!!!

I can't wait to hear about Sound of Music. I was JUST about to ask if I missed it somehow. Can't wait to hear.

As for the TR - too funny. As you were on here with this post - I was on there talking about how you would be singing with me. Funny.

HAVE FUN NANCY. I bet the costumes are fabulous. Enjoy the weekend.

 

[AKASnowWhite]

Look at late night Nancy. I LOVE her. Late night Nancy.

Nancy is so tired that I'm punchy! Hey. At least I'm happy when I'm exhausted <sigh> off to get abused by Erin

 

[AKASnowWhite]

 

[lisaviolet]

Nancy - hope you're having a spectacular weekend!!! CAN. NOT. WAIT. TO. HEAR.

 

[AKASnowWhite]

Lisa, it was amazing. I can't wait to give you details (PLEASE! if I forget, remind me to tell you about Leisl and her dress!) Right now I'm exhausted. Thanksgiving week is killer for me - *only* about 70 pies today. Tomorrow, I think it's 118 So, so very happy that my mom is making cheesecake for Thanksgiving
