    Burning NUTRITION QUESTION....

    Kathryn... AMEN, AMEN, AMEN !! I couldnt have said it better myself. I would only add that I have talked to many people who really havent even read the whole diet, just picked up bits and pieces of information about it, "because a friend is doing it" and using that limited knowledge to base...

    Power Tower!

    I got mine on ebay in Feb. from FogDog sports, and although its not as pretty as some, it does have all the diff stations that the others have, and the best part was they had it on "buy now" for 49.99, and then the shipping was half off!! I got the whole thing, tax, title and license for 60...

    I want to stay at home with kids

    Lynne, Another option might be to provide daycare in your home. When my first two boys were little, I did just that. I had a maximum of 4 kids, and was lucky enough that they were close in age to my kids, so they always had a playmate. I do have to say, its hard work. I had alot of fun...

    I must be missing something

    I took a Pilates class with friends for about 6 months, and I liked how I felt after the class, but the class itself was pure torture!! I would rather watch paint dry than do that anymore--so I guess you're not alone, I want more intesity than that. Jayne

    Best videos for dstance runner trying to get back in shape?

    I agree with previous suggestions, and just wanted to add a little note on something I found working really well for myself, I alternate leg workouts between standing and floor work.

    abs before working out

    I always do ab work first anymore. I didnt always--it wasnt until PUB that I figured out that there was no way I could do that ab work after everything else! I like doing abs first now, I really can concentrate and work the muscles much more effectively, and have noticed a very nice...

    Hi Mari, Today is my 40th bday(yeah!), and I did bootcamp, then tacked on some more leg and ab work. It was so great because I was thinking the whole time there is no way at age 37 that I could have done this workout, much less add on to it! Lets here it for the aging thing, and having...

    RE: AKirkland.. Im sooo glad Im not alone!! A couple of things that I have found to help...I take papaya enzymes, and they work pretty good for the bloating, and excellent if you get heartburn. I also had to stop my protein shakes, now I just mix whey protein with some kind of juice, yogurt...

    Workout

    Hi Rhonda, I have done w/o's like you described--one week I would do slow & heavy, the next week I would alternate PH and ME for weight work, and I have gotten awesome results. My body definately responds best to this type of weight training. The only downfall was that S&H makes me sooo...
