Pushups look good, Jane! I'm scared...I finish week 2 tonight. Just looking ahead I am afraid of week 3...I know when I do the test I'm going to move back a level or two.

Yes, I started on level 2, but after the test at the end of week 2, I had to move down to level 1. AND, I am struggling on level 1!!! I am going to try my hardest to eek out the last workout in week 3, so I can move on. But, if I can't to it, I will be repeating week 3. WEEK 3 IS HARD!
That is good to know. I should be on week 3 now but with my shoulder hurting earlier, I pushed out day 3 of week 2 until today. Sounds like nexxt week should be challenging.

8x15's Swiss Ball Glute-Hamstring Single Leg
8xBW
8xBW *OK, these were supposed to be single leg! Just try it! They ended up being both legs, needless to say. I wanted to throw in another bi-lateral hip-dominant exercise because my balance sucks SO bad on the SLRDL's. I'm going to keep a couple sets of them in here, but throw in some other stuff, too. The first one on the list is the single leg SB glute-hamstring exercise: Men's Health - Power Training - Hip-Dominant

ooooh now I know who to order silver from . I would much rather give my money to a small business than a HEEEEUYGE one. How did you get started in selling beads?

Paula, I used to design a lot. Not so much anymore. But, I was lucky enough to befriend a really trustworthy source overseas (Bali), which isn't easy to do! So, I began importing about 7 years ago. It's been rough lately because the price of raw silver skyrocketed, but the trend may be heading downward (fingers crossed!).
Might need to order some stuff for the designs I have floating in my head - I still haven't had time to really play with my dremel tool and all the shells I've gathered.

Penney's sent me a $10 off a $10 purchase coupon. Free money, right? So, I head to the clearance racks and find a pair of $48 Nike black lycra workout pants on sale for $9.99. DAMN! I needed one more penny. So, I found a workout tank on sale for $4.99. So, I got $68 worth of workout clothes for $4.98 plus tax. Not too bad of a deal, I'd say. And, they are really cute, too!

This is key, cuz you can find lots of cheap stuff to wear out there. Last night I bought a pair of Earnest Sewn and a pair of Stephenson jeans on sale online. The total for both was under 100 bucks. That's almost 500 bucks worth of jeans. Makes me happy.
Jane, if I ever get to the point where I need to shop I'm going to hit you up for some tips.
C'mon down and we'll go shopping!!

OOH! I've been wanting a pair of Stephenson jeans!!! Where'd you find them at such a good price? I think I might even have to hem Stephensons (unless I wore a REALLY high heel!).

JC Penny always has stuff on sale! Every time I am there I think I am getting a great deal and then I go to the counter to buy stuff and its ALWAYS cheaper then it said on the tag or sign. Never fails!
I have found some 7 for All Mankind Jeans at my local TJ Maxx for under $100, but thats still a little high - or so says my husband I am always looking for deals though!
thanks julie!! it is always fun shocking everyone--hair is always "dry by itself as it is" and makeup is always minimal. I like the idea of not doing this every day, because then people expect it, and when you do the minimalist look, people think something is wrong!!

Yeah, but then if you are like me.......people are shocked when they see me au naturale! My neighbors kid me that I am the only person they know who mows their lawn with lip gloss on. Can't help it! I guess I'll have to get over it pretty quick when I start swimming! LOL!

It's really hard to look good while swimming between the swim cap, smeared mascara and goggle marks. But at least you'll look good in your swimming suit!
that is exactly why I stopped wearing make up! I really do like the way I look with it, but I hate the effort of doing it all the time. I have recently compromised with some tinted moisturizer, brow gel and mascara for weekends.
I hear ya, Wendy. I'm just a total girly-girl. LOVE make-up, hair stuff, perfume, clothes, lingerie, jewelry, shoes.....you name it! I can't imagine being any other way, so I just deal with the high-maintenance! LOL! I'm used to it by now!
yeah, I have girly girl aspects. I really love clothes and shopping. I really am enjoying the attention that I am getting by making the effort--I feel like I am back to myself in a lot of ways. when I was very obese, I stopped dressing up for fun, etc. it feels great to be back in my body.
