    Posted on Monday January 5th, 2009 at 21:56 in rotation, body for life, hyc

    As I wrote in the previous post (er...just a few minutes ago, actually), I started Body for Life (again) today. I'm excited. I am just ignoring the fact that I didn't finish it last time and starting fresh.This week's fitness plan, therefore, is al...

    I'm still not fully back into the swing of things yet (don't plan to return fully to normal until kids are back in school and hubby is back at work). I am also not stepping on the scale yet! Actually I ordered a new scale--this fancy one. Cool, hu...

  • HYC* Check-In & Fitness Plan (Such as it Is)

    Posted on Monday December 22nd, 2008 at 20:26 in weight watchers, hyc

    Well, I hoped to be well-rested after last week's so-called rest week, but I'm just plain exhausted. I planned to get back to the workouts today but it turned out to be yet another very busy day and it didn't happen. I guess I'm going to get in the...

  • HYC Check-In & NO Fitness Plan!

    Posted on Monday December 15th, 2008 at 21:12 in rest, hyc

    This week is NUTS. I am trying to keep up my happy holiday spirit but I'm exhausted and it's only Monday. I won't go into the lengthy details of my crazy schedule (and yours is probably just as bad or worse).Long story short--no planned workouts th...

    Well, I survived Thanksgiving without too much damage and even managed to work out some. However, today was a complete bust for the workout. I planned to do one but it just didn't happen. I was busy and then I was exhausted and then I was busy aga...

  • HYC Check-In and This Week's Plan

    Posted on Monday November 24th, 2008 at 21:14 in rotation, hyc

    Last week I felt really strong and pleased with my workouts. Actually, Friday ended up being a bust because I was so busy (including some unplanned tasks) but I made up for it on Saturday. Today I felt like my feet were made of lead as I did Cathe'...

  • HYC Check-In & a New Rotation!

    Posted on Monday November 17th, 2008 at 19:23 in rotation, hyc

    I have a new rotation that I slightly adapted from one of Cathe's excellent rotations--her Intermediate Rotation from March '07. I've just switched out a few things to make it personally more fun for me. The full 4-week rotation is on my Current Ro...

    Posted on Monday November 3rd, 2008 at 20:46 in rotation, pushups, hyc

    I have let my eating really slide lately. I was reading and working on Intuitive Eating but I have a bad habit of trying to read 5 or 6 books at once and the book (along with the self-training) got put on the backburner. I just keep finding more bo...
