Waves to everyone! It looks like today may be our last nice day of weather for the week. We have snow predicted for this evening and the next few days!
Yesterday I had planned to do Cathe XT burn sets but instead was pulled into a movie marathon with the family. I know this season will pass and am cherishing the time with my DDs. Today I am doing yard work, putting out mulch, and hope to do a combined XT upper body to get back on track. It's great to see what everyone is doing; this is a wonderful group! ~Beth |

AnMrsDe - you are definitely the energizer bunny. Love the rug in Cathe’s living room. Re: STS - I did the squat rack workout instead of the Plyo legs. I didn’t feel like jumping the other day so will go by how I feel day to day. As far as next, I’m doing a 5 month rotation, next will be Meso 2 again and then 5 weeks of Gym Styles. I’m undecided if I will continue or move to an undulating rotation. I love the muscle firmness that I’ve gained; would like to see more weight loss. This is on me though. I haven’t gained weight but I find that I am eating just because very rarely am I truly hungry. Food doesn’t have the same appeal anymore. I’m not anticipating or craving anything. I’m sure a big part of the blahs is everything that I eat is being prepared by me.
Good to know that As Sweet and family are good. bex - so good to hear from you. Glad that you and your family are doing well. Chrys - what a lovely thing to do for high school seniors and their parents. Cher - that’s a good tip. Probably would do it pre-pandemic. Now wouldn’t want to do anything that would land me in the hospital. Beth - Snow? Eek!

Hi everyone - now it's Sunday, I have time for a longer update.
So in January, I returned from our Xmas/NY ski holiday, tried to get back into fitness and was just too busy with my business. Same old, same old. Then around Jan 22-24, things changed here in China.... It's a very long story, but here are the highlights. I never felt personally in danger of the epidemic, but the impacts on daily life were a lot faster and more decisive than in the US. We were basically shut down here for 2 full months. My business stopped dead in the water, my husband was working abroad so there was a closed border between us, and most of my community left China or were also locked down. In theory I could have used the time to exercise but it was so emotionally difficult I could only cope by eating french fries every day. Three weeks ago my husband got a long and difficult flight back into China. Since he was arriving from overseas, we had to go into full legally mandatory lock down quarantine together - no leaving the house AT ALL for 14 days. Grocery deliveries are a lot easier here, so we had a 'honeymoon quarantine' in which we both worked from home and enjoyed being together for the first time in months. I'm so grateful he's safe and with me. Since we went through the quick & sharp shock version here in China, things are now in control and we're able to slowly return to normal life. Businesses are operating, restaurants and even the gyms are gradually being allowed to reopen. It's spring here, hope returns. My friends and family are all around the world (Australia, Europe and the US), but I'm trying not to spend too much time on the news and focus on what I can do here, now. Hoping everyone here stays healthy in every way, including emotionally and spiritually, during this trying time. bex |
