Just read a post from someone asking about gel inserts and it reminded me of this: I LOVE my gel inserts in my running shoes. Guess what happened at the airport when I tried to wear them home from Salt Lake City? yep. had to give 'em up! I knew about and planned to comply with the...

The other day at my workout, my trainer was bemoaning the fact that Myoplex no longer makes her protein powder of choice: chocolate cappuccino or something like that. There isn't much "shelf choice" around here where we live, and she isn't a website surfer girl, so she is feeling at a real loss...

Anyone heard of it? Used it? Just read a glowing article on it in People and wonder if any of us "real folks" can attest to its greatness. From Brazil, a berry drink full of vitamins, etc. etc. Sounds interesting, but before I go in search of it . . . any thoughts? Anna

I've been going to a personal trainer for 6 weeks and LOVE HER! She is spending extra time with me above and beyond my 2 hours a week and I want to let her know how much I appreciate her and what she's doing for me. Any ideas on something appropriate? Thanks! Anna

this could also be titled, "The dumbest reason not to exercise", but i had to "vent", I guess, and see if anyone has a way around this. Statement: I want/need to do cardio 5 X a week. If I sweat on Monday, I'm anxious to sweat again on Tuesday and if I work out on Tuesday, I feel a drive...

Someone talked about the best part of the time with Cathe and crew being all the behind the scenes info about the filming of the videos, etc. I (we?) want to hear more of that sort of thing! Loving the pictures, by the way. Anna

I read the posts about seeing the Batman movie (also a big fan of the mysterious man in the batsuit) and wondered if anyone read the article about the star in People magazine last week. He talked about how he dieted to lose ONE THIRD of his bodyweight, getting down to less than 100 lbs. to...

What sort of thing do you like? I'm a big-time reader and have a top 10 list in the mystery category, romance, chick lit, general fiction, romantic suspense, you name it! Anna

Any idea how I can reduce the cellulite on the backs of my thighs? I hydrate frequently, eat clean, use my Cathe videos faithfully, "fake" tan religiously (as I believe a tan covers a multitude of sins), but still . . . ugh :-/ anyone else spend the summer in capri pants? Anna

I only have enough money to add one of these elements to my workout room. Which do you think I would get more use/benefits from? Or is it just a matter of personal taste? Thanks for any suggestions. Anna

I'm talking about little things that happen outside your workout area that make you realize that what Cathe has done for you IN the workout room is impacting your life everywhere else, too. My example: I'm a high school teacher. Long story short, last week my students did a stick-puppet...

My lats? I have hoped and dreamed for lats for a long time, but I thought they would be higher, you know, to give you that "V" back look. These bulges seem too low to be pretty. But if you say they're lats, then so be it! :-) anna

Ok, been working out with Cathe seriously for almost a year. Tonight, when I was changing for bed, I noticed for the first time a muscle bulge on both my sides. Now that would normally really excite me, but this bulge doesn't appear to be in the right place. These are not the beautiful...

My husband loves Smallville and I can't stand it :-) , but I'll pass on to him that he better detach himself from one of his beloved characters. Now, let's talk something I do love: 24! TWO REGULARS???? oh . . . this makes me nervous. I read somewhere that Kiefer argued in a previous...

My husband's family lives on a farm in Saskatchewan. We go there for about 9 days every summer -- this year the first week in July. Problem: my apparently delicate system is used to fruits, vegetables, lean meats, skim milk, daily exercise, NO fried foods,no doughy foods . . . well, on the...
