I bought the complete set when it first came out and I love it. I also take private classes at a center that is certified by the original Pilates people in NYC. Both workouts are the same, and I can tell that Mari is a real Pilates instructor. I got to the class once a week and then workout...

ME TOO!!! I've always thought I was weird too. I don't think it's chronic fatigue either, because I can have this happen after 2, 3, or 4 weeks of no exercise. Doesn't matter if I've exercised or not. My pilates class is on the 6th floor of an old building and I HATE going up there...

Wow, it looks different around here. It will take a while to get used to it. But it looks very nice. Laura

Oddly, I hate it when my husband wears a cologne. I like his natural scents - he soooo sweet without any help :) I'm serious too! Laura

RE: trevor and laura Sorry, I hadn't seen this post in a while. I'm also in Arlington. he, he. Small world! I'm suffering today because of the junky amount of snow we got. I want the 5 inches they predicted!!! :( Laura

I'm in too. I'm in DC and would drive there. I'd love a road trip! Yes, yes :) Laura

Francine, thanks for putting all the photos together. Everyone looks wonderful. Seems like Trevor lives near me. I'm in VA, and he's in MD. You got to meet Cathe??? I'm jealous. Laura

Cathe, you're up at 1 AM???? Wow, you're amazing! Laura

I'm 40 and will turn 41 in May. I've exercise my entire life. Began with ballet at about 3 and did gymnastics, swimming and dancing. I also ran a little bit on the track in school. One thing I used to do was this gizmo that you'd tie to the doorknob and it had ropes that would move with your...

Jillybean, there's an idea. We could have her arrested for several of her tortures - starting with the crazy 8s and her lunge sequences! Somebody find out his number - quick!! :) he he Laura

My biggest problem with them has been customer service. They stink. When I was thinking of adding to my collection, I was choosing between Cathe and Fitprime. I wrote an email to Anna asking questions, and she never responded. Then I posted in the area where the instructors "chat" and...

Oh good, I'm not alone!!! I though my pre-order was lost or something. Seems we'll have to wait a bit longer !!! :) Laura

Rhonda, if it's impossible to attend a class, do it online. But if you can possibly squeeze it in, try going to a center to weigh-in. Paying to get weighed, plus having someone weigh you in, as everyone has said, is really motivating. I don't think there's a WW group here, but you can start...

Thanks guys. I feel much better now. As soon as I read the signs on the wall that the Firm was going info financial problems (when they sold the company) I stocked up on steps. I love those wooden steps and don't want to give them up. Thanks for the info. Now I'll exercise with complete...

I have 2 of the 14 inch Firm wooden steps that I've used for years now, and don't really want to buy another step! Are any of you guys using the old Firm step instead of buying the new 14 inch mini step for the new videos? Just wondering if I'll be the only one or if I really should buy the...

Hi Rhonda, I'm doing WW (well, I did until Christmas!!!:) ) I've always gone to the meetings because I think they are critical to the program. If I just do the diet without the meetings, I have a hard time losing the weight - don't ask why, but that's the case. I'd go to the meetings first...

I want to add my thanks to Cathe for the nutritional info. from the entire group. It's very interesting to read everyone's route to fitness. Seems nobody followed the same "diet" to get in shape and some "diets" were quite different from others (low carbs vs pyramid eating with carbs as the...

great stories. At my house my dear husband always says, "I know you're stronger than I am." He's so sweet - because I'm not. She's just so big and tall, naturally, that he's still stronger than I am. But not by much! Laura

After looking at your photo you inspired me to change my body. I went back and did a search on your posts and I'm amazed at how dedicated and knowledgable you are about exercise. I have a question, would you mind very much helping me out a bit after the holidays? I promise not to pester or...

RE: Yep, me too OK, I'll get into the discussion too. I also think WD's photo is fake, but Francine's photo is real. WD's face doesn't match up with the body at all - it's off center. Francine, how did YOU get that body? Amazing! Laura
