Woo hoo! Love the card picking up and squats and kicks at the end ( I;ve only previewed it so far - can't wait to do it! lol!). <BR/><BR/>I'm envious of you with Amped - its not on sale here in Oz and the cost of shipping the bar with the DVDs to Oz was more than the cost of the workouts!! And Collage won't ship me just the DVDs - I was happy to pay for the bar and workouts but just get the workouts - no go, they told me. <BR/>:-(Leoniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11596513344737230084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4867962441941754804.post-63642472065301662192007-06-18T15:20:00.000-05:002007-06-18T15:20:00.000-05:00I am a huge Tae Bo fan.

I don't have th Elite videos, but do have the Boot Camp, Amped, Ripped Series, and the LIVE!...my favorite.<BR/><BR/>Tae Bo is the only exercise I've ever stuck to.

And that where I am and where I will be is where my mind will put me. So, be goo to yourself and others and a setback is just that - nothing more! lol!<BR/><BR/>I used to never spend money on myself as money was tight but I realized that sent the wrong message - to myself and to my kids. The same goes with taking time out for workouts - its not selfish, it sends a powerful message and it makes me a better, healthier person. <BR/><BR/>Maybe treat yourself to those Zumba workout DVDs!! And have fun at rball...Leoniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11596513344737230084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4867962441941754804.post-30294154883630017752007-06-17T08:54:00.000-05:002007-06-17T08:54:00.000-05:00Leonie-That is such a nice idea to give yourself t...Leonie-<BR/><BR/>That is such a nice idea to give yourself the videos as a gift. :)<BR/><BR/>That is taking care of yourself, or as Flylady would say.. (finally) loving yourself!<BR/><BR/>I think this is important, at least in my history, because it is times like this I would falter and turn the other way. What I mean, is if I have a setback, even something much more minor than surgery, I would feel like I had gotton off track and instead of loving myself and easing myself back in positively and gently, I might instead go hide from the negative feelings, and food is always a comfy place to hide.<BR/><BR/>And when you don't work out for a while, you can feel it, and for me, it is harder to work out again when I feel less strong. I feel a bit of that now, with the lagging on my workouts last week. It is time to reassess, be nice to myself and maybe creative in my workouts so I will look forwad to them!<BR/><BR/>Like Fr. N said in his homily last night... picking ourself and starting over is one of the most important aspects of faith. Forgiving ourselves as God always forgive us.<BR/><BR/>Not that you have anything to forgive.. but your positive response to your surgery has me thinking how I handle others kinds of downs in my life.<BR/><BR/>Today dh and I are off to play rball. Oh, I talked to my new 'partner' and she overslept last Monday! (I forgave her..lol) so we are trying again on a weekend when we don't have to get up so early. I really didn't like getting up that early either, worried I would miss the alarm, etc.<BR/><BR/>Keep us informed on your exercise and go slow! :)Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00889299687693914699noreply@blogger.com
