Good Morning Ladies
It is dark and rainy here, and although I wouldn't mind an extra day off I am not getting my hopes up..LOL Fire30 is complete along with pullups( Excercise of the day is working on the back muscles) I am sure there will be more back work later as well as a lower body workout, so to be continued..Well I think I have stopped profusely sweating, so it is time to prep for my day, much love to you all 
This is what I think everyday that I have to work....What a fitting theme song...LOL Thanks Umpqua Work motivates me even more to get to my ultimate goal!! HURRAH

Well I must get my workout in...Fire30 is scheduled but I think I will save the Fire class til the PM and do a HIIT30 Class with a Core20 since I have LOTS of energy to deliver... Let's Do it!!

Thanks for your comment! I know I should drop Hungry Tiger, but it's more complicated than that. In a town as small as this one, you can't help but have to spend time with people you'd rather not spend time with. She's friends with my bestie, so the line is slightly fuzzy right from the get-go. Unfortunately, I have to accept that i'll have some 'acquaintances' like Hungry Tiger coming into my life from time to time. And, yes, 'A' really isn't worth the drama. I fell into his trap but i'm outta it now and I won't let it happen again!
Have a great day today!
Have an awesome productive day lady. :)
Good Morning Lovelies keeping my sunny disposition although it is raining like crazy on my day off!!
Well as expected I went into work late afternoon and although we had a few rounds of "rain drills" I still eked out a nice chunk of "cha ching"...It is times like this that although I must stop and give pause and thanks that I am fortunate enough to have the means and ways to work on and get to my ultimate goal..
I am off to shop for some weights...The "dial weight" that I REALLY want are super expensive(600 for top of the line) says Sweetpea who had alot of useful info on them so I am trying "Play it Again Sports" before checking out the bigger chains...
Back in a few!!!
Just completed an awesome sweaty HIIT20 and a Circuit Burn40, this is right after..

Insane right??? These are my new "dial weights" I really wanted the bowflex ones but I didn't think that i should drop that kinda cash especially since my annual Bday trip is in August..I still plan on getting the bowflex ones but I might have to do layaway payments so I won't go over my monthly spending budget...I am planning to purchase the Extreme Challenge now that I have proper weights..So after that I must refrain from unnecessary spending..
Well ladies, I must go eat...I made the mistake of leaving the house this morning without eating, as well as low intake the past few days because of work being so busy so I have to fuel the machine so I can get strong!!! HURRAH!! LOL

Good Morning Divas It is still raining here and lotsa storms brewing up in the gulf...Not even going to make alternate fun plans as to what to do with my day(Turbo, Pride Day Celebrations,Anything other than work) LOL OOps just thinking out loud again..Well I am off to prep for reality(work) and hope for the best!! Have a wonderful Saturday!!!!!
Why is it that my GM can NEVER give me a day off free and clear????
First he said that the outside bar will be closed all day because of the rains..Now he wants me to call him later this afternoon "just cause" so my alternative plans are in a holding pattern
...LOL a heaping pile of BOLLOX!!
Good Morning Ladies I just completed a HIIT30 class and was supposed to do a Fire55 but i wanted to up the Cardio ante...For the past week or so I have been attempting to go to bed early and just lie there even if I can't sleep so the limbs will be rested at least..Anyways as I finally drifted off with the rains as my lullabye, a loud knock knock knocking on my door(1:30 amish)...OH boy what now???? I look out the window to see a squad car(it's the po po) I am thinking surely I couldn't get arrested for dreams could I??? LOL Anyways I opened the door for the officer, who stated that a 911 hangup call was made from my landline and he wanted to check to see if all was well...Apparently lightning stuck the phone line and killed the phone
I am assuming it was the phone that called for help???? IDK?? As i wished him a safe morning, shut the door behind me as I laid back down adrenaline pumping, it dawned on me the only thing I was wearing was a teeny tank and undies
Thank God I didn't go commando!! How embarassing!! LOL
On that note I am going to prep for work.. More rains are expected today but i have a feeling my GM will still request my presence(I am hoping NOT) LOL!!!
Well ladies I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!!! Talk to you later
Just winding down from a long day...The rains held off til 9pm but is was super slow becasue it was extra hot , humid and sticky.. I am thankful I arrived home safely, it was raining sideways and most of the streets were flooded...
Well I will update in the morning, I have to get ready lotsa rest for my fire class in the morning!!
Progress as of today - 92.9 lbs lost so far, only -0.9 lbs to go!
Have a great weekend V!
Have a great afternoon!
Hey Lovelies!!! Crushed another Fire30 and now it is off to work!! I am hoping the rains will hold off so I will get a decent shift in...The rains are inevitable, and since it is not expected to roll through til late afternoon, they want to give it a go...So I guess we will see...Have a wonderful day Divas!!!
Hey Girlies!! Well the meteoroligists were so wrong, in fact the sun is still ablaze at a balmy 92 and NO RAIN in sight!! LOL..Well I discovered just before i was going to do a Tone 30 that there is also a bonus workout called "Circuit Burn" so I gave it a go!! Let me tell you if I only wish I had some weights(I had to use the resistance bands and kettlebells for a few of the sets)!! It was an awesome workout that targeted the core(abs) glutes and def got my guns pumped..Woohoo!!
I am off to check on dinner, Super Hungry!! Time to spend some time with my favorite girlies!!

And yes, we have a lot of trips planned for the summer, mainly road trips, but a few train trips (to NYC, Northeast)and possibly to Brazil and/or Europe. Also, lots of guests/visitors/friends coming over. You?
Good Morning Lovelies Oh yeah!! Got the Fire55 in me and super amped for the day!!! Not much slated on the agenda besides laundry since I took a day of leisure yesterday... I am hoping to get updated shots today and perhaps get in a little time with Tracy's kids too..I have been so busy, I rarely get the oppourtunity to play
She has a huge backyard perfect for hide and seek and although the swing set is perfect for little kids, it doesn't stop this big kid from using it!! LOL I hope you all have a happy healthy day, time to get a move on!!
Hey ladies, I have actually been home for awhile but had difficulties posting my new pics so I had to get Umpqua to assist me...LOL I had an awesome time with Nicky (Tracy's son) His sister Allie was at a sleepover and I felt horrible when I left cause he so thought I was sleeping over at his place...He says"Auntie Bannessa, you leave? No sleepover?" i would have stayed but I had a very important project to tackle..Well ladies I must depart, I have an early fire class to crush before my mandatory meeting at 9am(the other alternative Meeting was 11:30 pm tomorrow night... NO THANKS)
I like your comment on my entry - HUNGRY TIGER! I'm going to keep that in mind so that when she pisses me off again (which is likely to happen, just sayin) I can think of this and just smile and let it slide! THANKS!
Enjoy the swings, lady :)

Good Morning Ladies!!! I got up super early this morning to watch the Gucci Men's Fashion Show for Spring 2012...Although I could have watched this later because I am certain it will be rebroadcast, for some reason, it is very exciting watching it live...I LOVE the pre show action as well, they have backstage cameras showing the models being glamified, cameras set up outside the venue where you can view all the arrivals there are also cameras in the lobby of all the air kissing elite having their cocktails and juicy gossip...LOL
My take on the show itself??? Well Frida Gianni missed the mark on this one..Don't get me wrong she is a very talented, fashion forward designer, but her creations went beyond feminine..Every look was super tight, tapered at the bottom(most of the hems of the pants stopped at the top of the ankles) The jacket sleeves were too short as well..Nut hugging Capris are not a good look on guys(yes you read that right) LOL haha! I wasn't a fan of the sockless Miami Vice look either.. I am a fan of her usage of plaids and the oversized bags are always devine...It had it's cute appeal However, overall it was missing a certain something..HUmmm??? TOM FORD maybe(former Gucci designer)
See what I mean???
Well ladies I am going to get my day started officially...I may get a nap in before my fire class that I so should have done before the fashion show because it is extra hot already...Oh well!!! Que sera, extra hot fire class today
Hey Ladies!!! I am back from my day of leisure...I was so not in the mood for social interaction and feeling a bit homesick after receiving a call from my friend who indeed had a Gucci Fashion Show party in the wee A.M.... LOL I miss all of his extravaganzas!! My favorite is the Oscar parties he has every year...The best one I attended fashion wise was the "Breakfast at Tiffany's" themed one...There were at least 50 or so 'Holly Golightlies" at the event of all colors and gender...By far he was the best looking Holly there!! LOL
As they passed the phone around most of them agreed that they were slightly dissapointed with this year's show...It didn't stop them from having a ball though and drooling over the models...LOL
I spent the afternoon napping and watching movies, I finally got around to watching Inception(awesome movie BTW) And I crushed out a HIIT30 cause I was well rested and up for the challenge!!! HURRAH
Well this concludes my fashion segment til the next show(I think it is Armani) LOL Time to grub
Pre breakfast- 1/2 glass of Pinot Grigio( toast with my Chicago friends) Shocking and I could have faked it, they would have never known but just keeping it real...LOL
B- watermelon, sugar free "vegan" rolled oats raspberry torte
L- Lean turkey Pastrami lettuce wrap with ff cheddar and chipotle mustard
D- Lean boneless country ribs with peach, mango and lime marinade, sauteed collards
1 gallon of water, 3 jet fuel caps pre workout
Snap I almost forgot... for those who love to dance in the privacy of your home because you are too shy and get fit at the same time, well Chalene has a Turbo Hustle that is super fun and SUper easy... This is her doing the advanced workout so don't be afraid, there is a fun easy version of this for beginners...
Chalene's got skills!!!
Nut hugging capris - ha! Having said that, I find men's fashion in the US a bit too conservative, dull, especially in Washington DC area. Perhaps not so much in NYC. Men's fashion in Europe (especially, in Italy) is another matter - they do ride the trend waves without any fear of being branded gay - just cheerful. :)
The following quote is from a Good Housekeeping interview titled "Man of the House: Tom Selleck", "So I like to get outside and work on the farm, from fixing roads to clearing brush. I hate going to the gym, so sweating outdoors sure beats sitting on a stationary bike staring at my navel. And I work cheaper than anyone I could hire to do it."
