Monday Manjoyment. 

DAYUM. 

*Ahem*

Hey kids!! Are you starting off this Monday with a POP?? Whatcha waiting fo? CRUSH IT!! ;-)

This morning's workout was Cathe's Butts N Guts followed by Cathe MMA Boxing, about 25 minutes. I was originally going to do some Insanity or Plyo but seriously- I smoked my lower body so hard that I knew the legs were toast. I needed some cardio that was upper body focused. So- the MMA boxing was perfect!! A hot sweaty mess of caloric burn. 

We are getting a "snowstorm" starting tonight through tomorrow all day- 12 inches or so. I feel like our snowstorms are lame now compared to DC. Isn't that funny? So many of my friends and colleagues are without power! Pray for them, they all seem to be hanging in there but my gosh. BRRRR!!

Gluten free, week #1 and I'm in it. I had 1 day last week where I had a tummy ache and that was after having sushi at the airport. That could have been multiple things- maybe the soy sauce or just something "funny" in the sushi. Yuk. And then yesterday/today for some queer reason I feel really nauseous. WTH? I don't have time for sickness anymore! Be GONE! I've got WORK TO DO! (I love that song....Vanessa Williams, have you heard it? Oldie.)

Gotta run kids. You all have a kick butt Monday. My goal for this week is 9 workouts; 3 days of weights + cardio (=2 workouts) and 3 days of cardio only + abs. And all I have to say is Thank God Krispy Kreme doesn't make gluten free donuts. I'm just sayin.

Here is some-more Shemar for ya:

And here is some incoherent babbling for you. I'm warning you, I didn't have nearly enough caffeine going on here:

And here's the sassy Vanessa Williams song I mention above. I'VE GOT WORK TO DO PEEPS.

Mmmmmmmmmmm =)....... You are most probably right girl, majority of soy sauces contain wheat. The food industry can't seem to help themselves, they lace wheat in EVERYTHING! Have fun in the snow storm, its 35 degrees and 1000% humidity in Oz!

Chelle, wait, is that 35 degrees C or F? I don't know if that's hot or cold! LOL

Hope ya'll don't get too much snow! Your eye makeup is SO pretty- I need a How To on this!! Glad the gluten free is going well for you.

I forgot the US uses a 'weird' temperature scale LOL! 35 degrees C, which is about 95 F. So its HOT, humid and really quite gross in Brisbane LOL.

Man, I was diggin' that music too!

We've got LOTS of snow here...BOO!

If there are any step workouts you don't want let me know I may buy them from you :) Love me some Cathe!!!

Hi! I was going to say exactly what Erica said...you eyes looked extra pretty today! They really said, "BAM! Look at my eyes!"

Okay, so I am just now getting into Cathe and I have to hit rewind, restart, pause, slow-mo, a LOT! I have been doing her Imax-3 step workout and it is really tough. It takes a while to get the routine down. Sometimes she is a tad hard to follow. But I LOVE her. I want her Low-max and her new HIIT videos.

Good job on the gluten-free week.

Hope its a 9 workout week for ya girl!

Erica- thank you! I've been doing my eye makeup seriously- the same way for years. I use black eyeliner from Arbonne, L'Oreal mascara and then some MAC blusher on my lids. ;-)
Chelle- 95 DEGREES?? I'M COMING TO VISIT!! haha!
Krissa- coming from someone as beautiful as you- thank you!! ;-) And I'm working hard on 9!! YESSSS!!!

You're so brave to do a gluten free week!!!

I love Vanessa Williams - love that her brother is playing her character on the show!

Hi Kelly! Good work on the gluten free. Sounds like you've finally found something that works for you. FYI. If you're truly going Gluten Free you'll need to check your make up and your hair shampoo and styling products. They often have gluten in them and can affect you as well. I was shocked when a doctor told me this.

February 9, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterStephanie Shifrin

Stephanie: I did read that, that gluten can be found in virtually anything. Freaky really. Kelly do you know I have never watched Ugly Betty? I need to start I think...!! DANG!
