9 1/2 Weeks....and not the Movie!

Fitgirl70 · 04-12-2004, 03:48 PM

I know...isn't that funny??

What did you buy? I thought about leaving earlier to go do some cardio, hubby is home sleeping, but it's almost 5 and I really don't wanna go to the gym right now. Although in all honesty, I probably should, I only did 15 minutes this morning and then abs after my leg workout!

JLB001 · 04-12-2004, 03:58 PM

I got a few things to put on ebay. My sister told me to get a few larger size ladies clothes. Nothing for myself.

Go to the gym Tam! LOL. We have to go do chest tonight, but its the workout with all the mountain climbers and walking lunges in it. It's so cold out I have to wear layers to the gym. ick!!!!

Stacey · 04-12-2004, 06:12 PM

Hey girlie---brrr it is cold..stay warm!!! I hate wearing layers to the gym too. I think I'm working out at my home tonight!

Hope your having a great workout!

What bbq place did you guys go to? Man I bet you were HUNGRY!!! Thats Funny about Craig!!

At least your mom didn't drag u to Garage Sales..my mom use to do that to me. Ugg!

Take care girlie!

atherjen · 04-12-2004, 06:24 PM

you Texans dont know COLD weather!!!

Fitgirl70 · 04-12-2004, 06:27 PM

huh???? we know cold for us!!!

nikegurl · 04-12-2004, 06:37 PM

....i'm late on this but i have to say that you're making really excellent progress!

the fat is dropping off and the muscles are definitely there.

your back looks really good. congrats on all you've done so far. the improvement since March is huge!

Jill · 04-12-2004, 06:43 PM

Tell Craig that the easter candy was on sale at wallymart today, and that I had some for him!

(and a bite for you too sweet cheeks!)

JLB001 · 04-12-2004, 07:17 PM

Stacey...if my Mom would have came over on a weekend, she would have tried to drag us to yard sales. ick. The bbq place was Pappa's BBQ. I love their chef salads. I just ask for no cheese, dressing. They are priced great for how big they are! Today we just got turkey and a spud, no salad.

Jenjen....it's cold for us! It was in the 80's last week, now its in the 40/50's. brrrrrr.....

Andrea...thank you! so far I am pleased with the way things are going, still somewhat concerned with the weight staying up. But we'll see next week when we see Jon. I haven't weighed since this past Wed. Maybe I'll do that in the morning.

Jillie....what kind of Easter goodies did we have? I hope I had more than one! Just none of Jodi's stale peeps.

Stacey · 04-12-2004, 07:20 PM

Sounds Yummy Jodie!! I have never been there!!

Yes This is So Cold.

I like it in the 70s!!!

Tomorrow should be real nice though!

Burner02 · 04-12-2004, 07:23 PM

Hiya!
well...3 pages later....we DID have a great time @ the condo!
It snowed the night before, so we went skiing / 'boarding. The snow was pretty good, no lines whatsoever and wore ourselves out by 2pm.
We got home, I made drinks and slipped into the hot tub until we were all wrinkly!
After a short nap, I made some of the ost amazing steaks I have yet to grill...and realxed to watch movies...good weekend.
Saw the new pics. Very nice! See good definitiion!

Keep it up!

JLB001 · 04-12-2004, 07:35 PM

Those steaks are making me jealous! They sound yummy!

Our weekend was mostly rain, so really nothing fun to do.

Hmm...wrinkly, wouldn't take me long! cuz I'm getting so friggin old! Bahahahahaha Glad you guys had a great time! Where are the pics???? we want to see!

Burner02 · 04-12-2004, 07:38 PM

no pics this time. Maybe in a couple days when I am of. I can get the pics of our last trip resized and posted.

Burner02 · 04-12-2004, 07:38 PM

I still have pics from our December trip to Cozumel to post..

greekblondechic · 04-12-2004, 07:49 PM

I always notice women who compete look so much younger than they are and I still cant figure out why.

JLB001 · 04-12-2004, 07:58 PM

My Mom doesn't look her age either. When I was 16, I look older, then when I get older, I look younger. Guess it isn't such a bad thing.

Stacey · 04-12-2004, 08:03 PM

Lucky you off tomorrow!! It should be a nice day!!

Kay I'm taking a bubble bath & going to bed soon!

Night Jodie!

JLB001 · 04-12-2004, 08:08 PM

Good night Stacey! Sleep well! and have good dreams!

Burner02 · 04-12-2004, 08:08 PM

g'night, stace!

Jill · 04-12-2004, 08:26 PM

Jodie-I read that older women (not saying you are old AT ALL

) build muscle easier cause there muscles are more mature or something like that. You think thats true?

Stacey · 04-12-2004, 09:02 PM

Aww thank you Burner & Jodie!!

Jodie- I will, I just took two of the pills you sent me..I have had really really bad cramps today & tonight!!!! The bath helped some though.

Jill I have heard that too. Also I think women who workout- lift weights stay younger looking!!

Good Night!

Burner02 · 04-12-2004, 09:10 PM

u r still here? go to bed, young lady!

DrChiro · 04-12-2004, 09:11 PM

Jill...usually when someone refers to a more "mature" muscle they just mean one that has been trained for a long time....so anyone who has been seriously lifting for about 6 or more years will have a level of muscle maturity.

Basically it is a certain tone and thickness, a certain look that only comes with years of training...usually it is hard to see unless a person is really lean and you know what to look for.

I'm not sure if "older" women have an easier time putting on muscle...estrogen does decline over time which may lead to more muscle....that is an interesting question.

Stacey · 04-12-2004, 09:18 PM

heheehe Now I'm going!! Cody has gone out to potty and I'm signing offfffffff....

Having a computer at home now is Addicting!!!Lordy!!

awww good to know DrChiro. You are So Smart

yeah..it's kinda sad...it's bad enough..I am on here for 12 hours at a time...(and get paid for it) then I go home and get on my pc at home....

How is the pochie doing? He's getting pretty big?
Was cute. Kristen got out of bed to start her aerobis..I, of course...rolled over..

Zoe, her German Sheppard jumped up on the bed and layed down beside me....until it was time to eat.....then she was gone in a flash!

JLB001 · 04-13-2004, 08:18 AM

This am. 35 mins cardio. 25 on the treadmill, 10 on the bike.
Diet will be lower card again, but spaced out a lil different.

atherjen · 04-13-2004, 08:24 AM

fun fun cardio!!!
another low carb day??

fill up on your veggies miss!

you know- on my dads side of the family we look much younger then we are. my sister is 31 and looks about 24 and Im 19 and people tell me I look 15/16.

I guess when Im 60 it might pay off.. grr

JLB001 · 04-13-2004, 08:41 AM

I'm eatting 2 cups of veggies with each meal. I feel like a veggie!
What I am gonna do is take my 1/2c. sweet potatoes and split it between meals 2 and 3. So I will only be down 20 to 30 carbs total for the day.

Don't stress the looking young thing! You'll be alright!
