Clare, all great suggestions...however I AM HR (grin), and she has approached our boss, as have I. He just gets an idea in his head and sticks with it. One of those people who get fixated. He is sure this isn't normal...since his children didn't have this problem...even tho' her pediatrician...

Help, I need advice!!! My coworker has had to be out of the office alot because her 3year old is sick...at least 2 if not 3 times a month, with various colds and infections. Is this normal? My boss says it's not, and is fed up with my coworker's absences. She's an excellent employee, a good...

Sounds like hot flashes to me. It's been a while since mine were really active, but I found exercising often brought on a flash, especially when I was doing ab work, and lying on the floor. The night flashes definitely sound right. I started with my flashes around 45...the nights were the...

I rarely post, but couldn't resist. 1. I am probably close to the oldest on this forum, 61. 2. Other than aches and pains from getting older, I am probably in better shape now than I was in my 20's. 3. I am prejudiced in thinking my two kids (34 and 32) are the best in the world. 4. One...

I have four of her tapes. I like them alot, espec use them when recovering from injury when I have to stay away from heavy weights, or for a change of pace. She, as someone else indicated, offers high reps, low weights, but believe me, you will feel it. She attacks the muscles from different...

Kelli, where do you buy one of those things. It sounds like a great idea! Mmmm...maybe I can get one and when my son comes to visit over the holidays he can install it for me... Sounds like you are really going to enjoy the changes. Susan

Whoa, I'm the only one over 60 it looks like...and getting more fit every day. Someday I'll even get through a full kickboxing routine. The step tapes are beyond me, but I have almost every weight tape Cathe's made and use them faithfully. She's as good for us mature folks as the rest of...

I wish I could stick to the eating plan, but every day a handful (at least) of pretzels land in my mouth. Just crave that salt! Exercising has been great...love the slow and heavy series, and my power walking has been more jogging this morning/Tuesday and it feels great. Walking just...

Morning all! Yesterday was a good eating day, stayed on target and kept my portions small. Today did S&H Legs. Susan

Morning all! Well, I blew my eating to bits! All the good food I had prepared and instead I ate pretzels and cookies and halloween chocolate. What a mess! I ate so much last night that my stomach hurt. I was so angry at myself, that it affected my sleep...woke up at 4 am still angry and...

Morning all! Had a pretty good weekend, tho' my weight is back up...guess alot of the weight I lost with the bug I picked up in Mexico was not real...but I still have kept off the inches i lost. Did the new kickboxing tape on Saturday. Got through around 30 minutes before I crashed. I...

Happy Friday all! Today I did S&H Legs and shoulders for the first time. The leg section was great...my legs were trembling by the last set of plies. I had just started the shoulders when I realized i didn't have time to finish, so will try to finish up tonight. Yesterday's eating was...

Tricia, if I had the time I would probably do PS BBA & CST on the same day, but I am limited to an hour at most. This morning did rebounding for 25 minutes, with some fast jogging to get my heart rate up. Just got the new tapes and hope to test the Kickboxing tonight. Looks like fun. Susan

Got mine here at work!!! My invoice # was either 29894 or 53279, don't know which...but I never received an e-mail they were coming. Argh!!! I already did S&H B&T this morning...guess it's Kick, Punch & Crunch tryout tonight. Susan

My Monday was a bust...no exercise and awful eating. I just am going to have to write it off. Yesterday I rebounded, eating was pretty good. Today I did slow and heavy biceps/triceps. Tricia, I probably won't be much help with your eating. I have a protein shake and fruit every...

I am on my 3rd week also. Lost another pound, and fitting into smaller sized pants. Yay! Rebounded on Saturday, took a 5 mile hike on Sunday. Eating was good, tho' not perfect. I didn't have anything wrong to eat, just more than I should have. Generally I cook for the week on the weekend...

This morning did PSCST and felt like I really pushed myself. Felt good. If I have the energy will try some rebounding tonight. Have a good, successful weekend everyone. Susan

Runner2, biceps with 15#. I'm impressed! That's my goal, to get to 15#. My upper body just isn't strong. I can get in maybe 2 sets at 12# but it's a real push. Hopefully the BFL will get me to goal. Thanks for the info on your treadmill workout Rhonda, think I will try it if I can get my...

Rhonda, I vary my treadmill...espec. since I am doing more than 3 days a week. I try to do 2 days "steady state"...start at 3.5 mph, then in about 2 minutes up it to a power walk at 4.0-4.2, and stay at that pace for about 15 minutes or so before starting to slow down. Sometimes I will add an...
