Yea I''ve got lots to do today too....doesn''t mean I want to do it though!!!!

Meh. Same. Not to mention, the heat is broken at work. I''m dying over here!

I''m here! And considering my lack of productivity yesterday (typical for the first Monday of the Federal Bi-week) I am not looking forward to attacking the pile of crap to do this biweek.

ETA: elle...how was the elliptical!?!?

Yay! Good morning VC!

Elliptical was OK. I couldnt get it to work at first because I''m a treadmill girl and ''quick start'' turns on a treadmill. That button does NOT turn on an elliptical.

You have to actually start using it. The guy next to me showed me, so I said thanks and was on my way. 30 seconds in I was thinking ''There is NO way I can do this for 30 minutes'' my legs were KILLING me. About 10 minutes of suffering in, my muscles loosened up and it became a bit easier. I''m not sore right now, but I fear for tomorrow.

I''m hoping if I keep doing the elliptical my booty will be rockin'' for the b-pics!

Heck yeah!!!

Did you use one of the ones where you can change the incline, or where your feet stay at the same angle the whole time?

I''ve been using them since they came out, so they''re second nature to me, but the ones with the fixed-angle footplates don''t match my natural stride and they feel weird, lol. I can go like a madwoman on an elliptical...I''ll probably be on one for 50-60 minutes tonight.

I adjusted nothing. I''m scared!

I just hit "fat burning" mode and went to town. Once I get more comfortable with it I''ll try and see if I can adjust anything.

Baby steps! I need you to come to the gym with me!

 

[CNOS128]

I love doing the elliptical! I don''t get winded as quickly there as I do when running. But sometimes my toes get numb!!!

Sounds like a good first run!!!

Maybe I''ll make a "how to" video for you the next time I''m at the gym on a Saturday, lol.

Morning, T! I have the toe thing too sometimes...when that happens I just start pushing more through my heels to get blood circulation back up. It helps to take the incline up a bit as well because that shifts your center of gravity backwards as well.

I''ve heard that, but did not experience it. Strange!

Ellipticals put my feet to sleep.

 

[Lauren8211]

Ellipticals apparently put me to sleep. I crashed when I got home from the gym for like an hour.

That''s such a nice sleep - the nap after you work out! Mmmm, nap...

 

[Hudson_Hawk]

naps are good any time. The most annoying thing about my condition is I want to nap all the time, but then when I get the chance I can''t sleep! It''s frustrating to say the least, but I guess it''s good because then I''m more than ready to go to sleep early (9-10) and I sleep like a rock through the night (except for the mandatory pee breaks at 12, 3 and 5:02

Workouts are actually appetite suppressants for me. I can''t eat for at least an hour or two after I''m done...

I''m zonked this morning. I have nil for energy. A rolled over this morning and was all

...he got nothin. Was tired and dry from the stupid heat.

 

[Hudson_Hawk]

Ironically, this is the same time I got up to potty this morning.

We have one!!! I think it was just really cold last night and our heat was in over drive...so it sucked up the humidity.

For me? Just sleep.

I hate touching/cuddling/snuggling/affection of any kind in the morning.

This is what I''m thinking...since I didn''t have the 12 and 3 AM breaks.

Me too!!! I''m totally down with cuddling, etc. But it takes my body a while to "wake up" and respond so it''s either unsatisfying, painful or both.

Yeah same with me! My body is not awake until I''ve been out of bed for a few hours. I may get to work at 8, but I don''t do anything until at least 10.
