J'Bo will probably have some advice for ya on the modeling pix. But I know you'll do awesome.

Yep I have been slacking on getting up in teh morning but if this job I'm having an interview for on monday works out. I'll be getting up early every morning from now on again. Just like when I lived up in San Jose before.

get up at 5:30 hit the gym by 6:30 and work by 8:30.

If this job opportunity works out I'll be making more up there in San Jose then when I left. and the housing prices have come down

So wish me luck and keep your fingers crossed for me please, I fly out on friday and will have some news on monday night.

Oh yeah what protein did you decide to get.

I love the nectar, that stuff is awesome with different flavors, not just the usual Chocolate, Vanilla, and Strawberry. And cheaper than the Isopure to.

Stacey - I LOVE working out in the morning! I think that is the best time to do it, I just feel so good for the rest of the day.

I bought the Nectar stuff online, I am waiting impatiently for it to come! I hope it's good, I need a change.

Hey babe!

I love my protein pancakes! they are sooo yummy!

3 egg whites
1 scoop vanilla protein powder
1 T. ground flax

Spray pan with Pam, they don't take long to brown up.
It makes 2 very flat, very yummy pancakes. I always put sugar free syrup on them and something else: strawberries, blueberries or walnuts is what I've tried so far. I think I got the recipe on here.

My hunny worked nights for a long time too. He might be doing it again when he gets back. Did I tell you he is only home for 3 weeks then going to Ireland for 9 weeks! The cool thing is that I might be going to Ireland too.

Good luck on that waking up at 4:50. I used to wake up by 4 AM to get to the gym by 4:30, in order to do my 45 min. commute to work. With my new school schedule, I only have to wake up at 4AM on Tues. and 5 AM on Thursday. Every other day, I can sleep in a bit.

Thanks Aggies1ut & Hickerchick for wishing me good luck w/ waking up early!!!

Well I did it!!! I was half-ass awake at 4:15am when my hubby got up, and I layed there till 4:40am.. then got all my workout stuff together, drank some water.. and he left at 4:50 & I started my workout!

I was drenched in sweat..I hate it when it goes in my eyes..yucko!! FELT GREAT!!!!! I had so much energy-amazing!!!!
I did the hardest video I have..weights plus cardio with weights (The Firm) ITS HARD.. you use your weights the entire time.. doing all sorts of moves.. VERY HARD!!!! Then we did Abs at the end..I am getting sore in the tummy right now..

Hope everyone had a great weekend!
My back is sore from doing landscaping (hauling mud/grass from the backyard.. to Matts truck.. SORE!!!
