I once had a back injury that kept me from running, so I began taking spin classes. It was amazing how spinning trimmed down my thighs and butt - which have always been my trouble areas. If all else fails, try spinning. I run, step, kickbox and weight train. Only spinning gave me results in the...

Hi Debra, thanks for the info about your Mirena IUD. I am getting mine on tuesday, and I just hope to have half the success and positive experience that you have. Right now, I am bleeding so heavy that I am sure to be anemic. Nicole

here's another question about Atkins? Can you eat Splenda and nutra-sweet? What about fruit? Is that a bad carb?

Debra and others using the mirena iud: I am considering the Mirena IUD which contains hormones, because the copper IUD is not an option for me due to the fact that I have very heavy, lengthy periods. I am hesitant to use more hormones, since every pill I have ever tried - low this/low that...

i got my tongue pierced about 8 yrs ago. It didnt hurt. My bellybutton piercing hurt more. It didnt really hurt afterwards either, so zero recovery. however, I played with it a lot in my mouth and in doing so, resembled a camel. Something to think about. Not very sophisticated. I took it out. It...

I forgot to add that I had tried every solution available on the market for excess gas and bloating. Nothing worked!

I had the same problem a few months back. It was so bad that I was considering seeing a doctor for fear of cancer. The daily bloat and gas were incredible. As it turns out, I was eating too much fiber. I was adding fiber powder to my oatmeal and yoghurt, and I ate a lot of Fiber One cereal...

I don't know where else to buy them, but I did purchase both #1 & #2 directly from Ilaria at Powerstrike and also cringed at the price. However, I am so glad to have done it. They are both terrific, and I nice change of pace from Cathe. I think they are worth their purchase price, and the...

I just bought Rttc and S&L at Ross for 5.99 each. I tried Rttc. It was okay, but I didnt feel like a got as thorough a workout as Cathe's tapes. I even upped the weight. The weight that Jari uses is ridiculously low. There are some exercises on Rttc that I found especially good for the thighs...

I started with CC on my treadmill (which I liked), and then discovered Itrain. I love Itread to run. It has more workouts and better music (in my opinion). The hour flys by. I tried an Icycle on my spin bike, but couldn't get into it. So, I stick to Spinervals on the bike. I havent used my CC in...

I ran the El Paso County Search & Rescue 10k here in Colorado Springs. The race was snow-packed trail and icy hills. It was only my second race, my first was 3 1/2 years ago. I had no intentions on placing, just hoped to finish without injury. Well, to my suprise, I won first place for my age...

What is the deal with those plank pushups at the end of the workout? Cathe and the crew make it look so easy, yet I cant even finish the first set, so forget the second set entirely. I usually keep up with Cathe and go even heavier, so why are these so impossible? I admit that I cant quite keep...

Well, I just read on another post about how the support team is being inundated with order status questions. So I will just wait it out and hope for the best.

I am also a little worried. I preordered in Sept 2005, and the UPS tracking finds no info from my phone number input. Plus, others that preordered 9/05 have already received their dvds. Is there anyone to call for verification? nicole
