    Protein shakes - when and what kind?

    hi, Protein shakes are not necessary. I am not sure how the whole protein supplement thing got started, but it is a bit simplistic to think protein builds muscle, therefore more protein will build more muscle.

    Firm BBS 3

    I love two of the workouts that came with the set-- total Muscle Shaping and Total Body Sculpting. I never really use the other one. These are shorter than a standard Cathe strength workout, but they are tough if you heavy up on the weights. My muscles are usually exhausted when I am done...

    Am I being petty?

    RE: jealousy? Thanks for answering. I guess my feeling is, if I wanted them, I'd get'em. That is why I couldn't understand the jealousy remark. I mean, as long as you can pay for it can't anyone get them? (Actually, as I understand there now are people who actually finance plastic surgery. Now...

    Am I being petty?

    jealousy? Hi, I was just wondering if you had an answer to my question. Not to harp on this, but I have seen this statement about jealousy before and really am curious why women with implants would feel that someone would be jealous of them.

    Any ex-smokers willing to share their success?

    I used Zyban-- wellbutrin marketed specifically towards those who wish to quit smoking. It worked for me. I also made a point of changing my after dinner routine-- Instead of smoking I went and swam a mile. This helped me. I HAD to get out of the house. You have to break that chain of events...

    Am I being petty?

    Yes, that is a good point. Everyone has their own reasons for liking or disliking an instructor. I think it discredits others' feelings when you state "this shouldn't bother you." Well, just because it doesn't bother you does not mean it shouldn't bother me.

    Am I being petty?

    I do want to add that I do like Karen Voight and her breast implants do not make me feel inadequate. I certainly don't think she is advocating anyone get them and I also don't think she makes any claims that her workouts will give you a body like hers. I happen to think she looks fabulous, but...

    Am I being petty?

    Ummm... why would anyone be jealous of an individual who has implants? I really am asking this sincerely because I cannot imagine why anyone would.

    Am I being petty?

    I too am disappointed when I see that an instructor has had breast augmentation. I will never believe that someone does this for themselves only, unless that person enjoys staring at their chests in the mirror all day! Surgery is surgery and it comes with many risks. I wish women would stop...

    Shoes for wider foot?

    Right now I am am wearing New Balances-- wide width. In the past I have worn Avias with good luck, but I have tried a few more recent models and they did not seem as wide. I think Adidas runs a little wider also. Nike and Ryka are both built for narrower feet in my opinion.

    I find it a bit strange......

    Trevor, You're right! I can't get anything by you! It is fortunate that this democracy has individuals such as you willing to do "six months" of research and speak to totally unbiased sources in the White House. I know that you were leaning towards Kerry and your research helped to show you the...

    I find it a bit strange......

    I find it a bit strange... that you are having a hard time figuring out why your post engendered such heated responses. I'm sorry, but it came across as quite pompous, as if your vote is truly informed and others are well... misguided. There are other issues at stake besides the war in Iraq...

    Music on CTX was the Best !

    I loved the CTX era music too! The soundtracks for Leaner Legs, Cardio Kicks, and Circuit Max were perfect. I like the Intensity series with the exception of a few songs ('Pina colada" and "Buttercup") Actually, I think Imax 2 music is wonderful. As for Body Blast... very hit and miss. I...
