Good morning to all!

Hope everyone enjoyed the long weekend. I certainly did. Didn't do much, but I did get my O! done. I took Saturday off, but on Sunday and Monday, I made up my own routines of my favorite positions using the commuter CD!! I feel awesome.

No O! for me yet today. I just finished my favorite bellydance workout. This afternoon I'll make sure to do O! Level 3, then walk!

I will check in again later!

Joline -- great news about your successful day yesterday! Glad you are posting here. Isn't Tim Horton's great?? I actually had some TH coffee yesterday (got a gift pack for Christmas while in Canada)... yum. The BEST! I wish they'd bring their business down south!! Er... maybe they'd better not! LOL

Good morning Tammy and all to follow! I managed to do another commuter yesterday and with PT after work, I'll probably get in one today as well.

Merritt...congrats on the losses!! Good for you! Glad your chest pain subsided too!

Joline..glad you got in O! for the first time in a year!

Lisa..congratulations on the inches and pounds lost!

Have a great day everyone!

Hi y'all. I got in my Oxycise this morning. I even did a position that I normally avoid doing. I try to mix up the positions a lot when making up my own routines.

My daughter did L1 again yesterday. I'm trying to encourage her to do it at least 5 times a week. (she only did 4 last week) Even though I like Oxycising in the morning, it works better for her in the evening.

Well....I'm going to feel like it's Monday all day. I guess that will make the week seem shorter by the time Friday rolls around.

Hope everyone is having a good week so far!

Isn't this a wonderful way to exercise?! It seems so many of us do so well as long as we stick to it. I am sure Joline will atest to that. I am very proud of you for dusting that video off and breathing again.

I am glad you had a nice day off Tammy. I had to work yesterday but hey, somebody has to do it . I had a rough day yesterday because I received the list of employees that the new owner does not intend of keeping. They said they were keeping everyone but the corporate people and now, they are not keeping 75 people. I just felt awful when I saw that list. So many lives are being effected by this. It seems the almighty dollar takes presidence again. I guess the new company will take over around the first of February and then some of us will stay on until March 1st. I didn't realize I would be so sad. I was just ready to move on and start my new career with my own company but, it seems I will miss this worse than I thought.

Okay, enough of that. I got up and did 30 minutes of the cardio glider to Bob Seger. "I think I'm goin' to Catmandu...." yeee haaaa. I sure sweat to that guy. Then, I did a commuter routine on the way to work. I am still getting little stabs of pain in my chest but, I still think it's a muscle or something in my back that's out of whack.

We received over 20 inches of snow yesterday so it is really white outside. The driving is slow and that means I get a lot of extra breathing in. I hope everyone is staying nice and warm this winter.

Have a great day!

Merritt

Hi there
All I got in so far today was L1 with weights. It has been a rainy strange day. I accompanied J-N's class to te pool to help with the girls (they only have men teachers in 3rd grade this year),then a friend came for lunch & I didn't get dishes done til 3 since the kids had to go back to school. Now I am on to laundry & get stuff done so I can relax tomorrow since the kids have off on Wednesdays.

If I can I'll get in another L1 later.
Good day all.

I missed posting yesterday. We went to town, and I didn't get a chance at the computer.

Congratulations to Merritt, Lisa, and MissyO on the pounds and inches lost! You're doing great!

Welcome Joline! I'm glad you joined our group! It's made so much difference for me, to have this great group of pals to chat with.

Susie, I'm glad you chose to O, last night. I did mine pretty late in the evening, and it felt so good.

Merritt, I'm sure that was a difficult experience yesterday. Sorry . Over 20 inches of snow!!! We barely had a skiff overnight!

I hope there will be lots more posts when I check back later....hint hint.

Good Afternoon!

WOW! Everyone sounds so motivated!!

Congratulations to all you loosers!! You are sure "Winners" in my book!!!

Welcome to the new ones. SO glad to have you join us.

Thanks for all you concern & prayers for my dad. He is getting better. Which I thank God for!

I did L4 & ABS&UB this morning. Been doing real good on the eating yesterday & today also.

Kelly...Here are a few more of our lingo for the newbies... DS (dear son) DD (dear daughter) SIL or BIL (sister or brother in law), b/c (because) KWIM? (know what I mean?) WE (weekend). This may be "old" stuff to some, but I know when I started posting I was lost on some of this stuff. Had NO ideal what people was talking about. There are still a few I haven't figured out. Can't remember now what they are. I guess I will just have to ask the next time I see them.

Well, I jumped in w/out reading any of the posts ahead of me. I didn't get "O" in yet today. Went to the golf range with my DH. I'm getting ready to take golf lessons. Do any of you play? If you do is it difficult to learn? I'm excited and nervous to learn. I want to be perfect at it "yesterday"

Congrats to all of you who are losing. I myself am still not losing. I can't figure out why but I continue to persevere because it makes my insides feel good. Maybe one day my body will realize it's suppose to shrink.

Enjoy the rest of your day!

Until next time...

Susie
