    stomach problems

    I was just diagnosed with IBS, too. The IBS websites don't want to give you the real info, they just want you to buy their book. So I went to Amazon to check out the books available, and they all sound like good books, so I ordered a couple of them. One of them is "What can I eat if I have IBS?"...

    Music Makes the Workout!!!!

    Hey Kweller, I know what you mean about cardiokicks being cathartic. When Cathe brings the guys up front and we're all punching like crazy, and the music's going "Get-get-get-get-get off on b----" I practically collapse into a laughing/crying mess! Thank God nobody's watching! Do you think...

    the pill at 36???

    I'm in the same predicament. I quit Depo because I was either bloated or bleeding, it made my hair stop growing, and supposedly it decreases your bone density. I'm looking for a permanent solution, and I think I found it, but it won't be FDA approved until next year. It's a non-surgical...

    My 3rd Cold This Year!

    Hi Jillybean! I don't know if this will help you, but something is helping me, I'm just not sure what it is. I can't remember my last cold, but I think it was 6 years ago. It's really bizarre because I'll get all the symptoms of a cold coming on, and then they just disappear. I started taking...

    Zzzzzzzzzzz . . .

    I was in zombie-land all day yesterday! I compensated for the lost hour by going to bed an hour early, so with lack of sleep not being a factor, I was amazed by how messed-up I was. I'm ok today, and I don't recall it ever taking more than 1 day to adjust. Try to have a nice week anyway!

    knee pain

    I never got CardioKicks because I was so not thrilled with CTX Kickbox. The arm drills just bore me. If it's a better workout than Kickbox, then I guess I'll go ahead and get it since I have to find ways to give my knees a break. Thanks for the advice!

    knee pain

    Thanks everybody for all the suggestions! My shoes are quite old, so I guess I'll start there and make some other adjustments before I try the doctor. A massage would be great, but I had one many years ago and I'm so ticklish that I laughed all the way through it!

    knee pain

    I'm 37 years old and have been stepping on a 6" step for years. I started having knee pains recently, different pains in different places in each knee. I read the thread about Glucosamine/Chondroitin and decided to start taking it. After about a week of taking it my right knee started...

    Landing toe-ball-heel

    I keep getting a strange injury to the back of my knee that feels like a hyperextension, and I'm wondering if that's what happens if you don't always land toe-ball-heel, or if you come down hard with the foot that you're supposed to just tap lightly on the floor with. What kind of injuries would...

    Breathing for shoulders

    Hi Cathe and everyone! This is my first post, so excuse me if I mess it up. My question is about breathing. During weight work I exhale on the exertion part of the movement for every body part except shoulders. For some reason my body wants to inhale on the exertion part of those movements. I'm...
