Hi everyone! I finally had my baby Jan. 10th via a sucessful VBAC! Yea! I did have to be induced and was carefully monitored, but everything went great. Baby Kristina came into the world at 1222 in the afternoon weighing 9 lbs. 10 oz. We are both home and doing well. I am taking it easy...

Today is my due date and nothing! I've noticed that many of the people who were pregnant recently went overdue and ended up with a c-section. :-( I'm attempting a vbac, so I am not a candidate for induction. It's looking more and more like a c-section for me too. :-( I am at least...

I read about hypnobabies from a previous post, and decided to order it and give it a try (it should be here next week). I was wondering if anyone else has tried it yet. I remember someone saying they were ordering it too. I was very unhappy with my last two deliveries, although, the babies...

Hi all! I'd thought I'd start the check-in, even if it is already midweek. :-) Hope you all are doing well! I went on vacation last week and had a good time. Unfortunately, I didn't eat very well and gained 3lbs. x( I am NOT looking forward to my check-up tomorrow. Unless I really watch...

Hi everyone! I just found out on Monday that I am pregnant again. My period wasn't even due until today, but I was having a lot of symptoms so I tested early. I am a little nervous about early miscarriage (though I have no history of it), but at 37 I know there is a higher risk. I was...

Can anyone suggest some good exercises to focus on strenghtening my lower back muscles? Also some good stretching exercises to increase flexibility in that area would be very helpful. Thanks!

My friend convinced me to train for a half marathon coming up at the end of April. I am excited and nervous as the most I've ever run is 6 miles and that was several years ago. Anyway, the schedule I'm on has me running 4 days a week, cross training 2 days and strength training 2 days, with...

I have been working very hard to get my body back into shape. I am currently back to my "pre having any children" weight and I'm not fitting into some of my old clothes. (I've had two children in the past 2 1/2 years, with my youngest being 11 months.) My shape has definately changed. My...

Cathe- First, thank you so much for all your wonderful workouts. I haven't been in such good shape since college (and maybe not even then!) My question is concerning my shoulder. I noticed right before Christmas a kind of grinding sensation in my right shoulder when I did any large circular...

I'm wondering how to incorporate these workouts with the Cathe workouts. I recieved the deluxe set this week and tried the Learn/Burn, 20 min. workout, and Turbo Sculpt yesterday. I was surprised and happy to notice my midsection feeling a little sore today! My purpose for getting these...

I've noticed that the presale is still going on and that the prices haven't changed. I preordered all of the new DVDs back in Oct. (I think) when it was announced that it was the "last" day of the presale. My question is, for future reference, are these presales usually extended past the...

I've been beating myself up about my loose skin on my stomach, damage done after two children, when I found this picture. http://www.funpic.hu/en.picview.php?id=7219 I guess things could always be worse! LOL! ;-) :-) :-)

Hi BFFMers! I don't know if this thread was already started this week, I couldn't find it, so I thought I would start it. I did very well this past week (except for some Halloween candy yesterday ;-) ). Lost another 2 pounds of fat, unfortunately a pound and a half of lean mass too. I vary...

I've noticed that music is very important to a lot of people when working out. I know that it important to help keep me motivated. ;-) I was just curious which exercise videos/dvd's do you really like or really dislike the music on? I bought an old Firm dvd (Super Cardio Mix) a couple of...

I just started working out early in the morning after reading in BFFM how I can burn more fat this way. (prior to eating breakfast) Anyway, I am not a morning person and have been having a hard time exercising and not injuring myself. Yesterday I fell off the step onto my a** and this morning...

Hi! We are getting Direct TV next week and I am really excited to be getting Fit TV. My question is are the Cathe workouts on that station the same as her DVD's/videos? I saw they were playing PLB, IMax 2 and Bootcamp this week. (Or next week, I can't remember) So are these workouts the...

I would love some help with ideas to stop being counterproductive with my diet. I have no problem exercising regularly, but when it comes to my diet I have the worst time controlling myself. x( I really want to lose 30 lbs. 15 of which is left over from my pregnancy. (My son is 5 months...

I would love some help creating a rotation with the DVD's I recently purchased. I had never even heard of Cathe before a few weeks ago. I had been debating buying the new Firm stuff, when Cathe was recommended to me. I just tried her Basic Step + Body fusion and love it! :-) So I went out...
