    Increasing numbers of child-free by choice people

    Being a mom is the most important thing I will do in my lifetime. And at the ripe old age of 28, with most of my life still ahead, I can make that statement with 100% confidence. My 7 year old son, Blaine, is the best thing that ever has, or will, happen to me. He is the reason I wake up every...

    Anyone else doing Atkins/low carb?

    I have been doing atkins for about 4 months. I was very tired and had problems with foot cramping at night the first few weeks. Once I got past that I had no problems. I did eat more salad and greens than allowed during induction just because I think I felt a little better when I added...

    Padded long sports bra?

    You can do either. I usually get mine at the store. They had some online yesterday that had the racerback on sale for around $8.50 I believe. Go ahead and get yourself 3 or 4 because you are going to love them!!!

    Padded long sports bra?

    Hi Barbara! Since discovering tank tops w/ the built in shelf bra, they are my new favorite clothing item. They are not actually "sports bras" but they are great for working out and lounging around. It almost has the feel of no bra, but it looks like you're wearing one. I even sleep in them...

    I finally got the PS series, now I have a question...

    should I try to do the entire PS series 2x a week or is once enough? would twice a week be TOO much? I also thought about BBA on Monday, CST on Tuesday, and L&A on Wednesday then doing some kind of muscle endurance workout on say Friday or so. I have been doing MIS and PH for the past 8 weeks...

    Egg Whites

    The reason we cut out the egg yolk at my house is because my husband has very high cholestrol. The yolk alone (if I remember correctly) has about 45g of cholestrol. I suggest having your cholestrol level checked if you are planning to start eating more eggs w/ the yolks. My husband had some...

    What should I do next?

    Sorry it took me so long to get back here. I don't have computer access in the weekends. I alternate PH and MIS each week. So I do a full week just using the PH tape then the next week I use MIS all week. It seems to work pretty good for me that way. I also keep a workout journal and that helps...

    What should I do next?

    Angela, When I first started doing PH I could only do the leg sets with my 15 pound bar. Now I am up to 31 pounds. I know that probably doesn't sound like a lot of weight to most of you, but I am fairly small (5'4" and 125lbs) and I went from doing a VERY small amount of exercise. (cardio...

    What should I do next?

    I have been alternating PH and MIS for the last 7 weeks. I have seen great results. My entire body looks much more toned and lean. I have more muscles now than I have ever had. I plan on doing these for one more week, but then what? I was thinking about either CTX upper body w/ LL or the PS...

    Anyone else get brown patches on face in summer?

    Hi Sami! I don't get the brown spots myself, but I may know of something that might help. Mary Kay has a product called Spot Solution, Skin Lightening Cream. I don't personally know anyone who has tried it yet (maybe someone here has and can enlighten us) but it is worth a try. They have...

    3 weeks late, but what is going on?

    Thanks cmoroney. Right now I think I will just wait and see what happens before I get into all that. I have a six year old son already so obviously I can get pregnant (or I could at one time, hopefully still can). I have also been on the pill since I had my son and just stopped taking it a few...

    video with little equipment required please...

    Which cathe videos require the least amout of equipment? A body toner with little equipment would be great. Between the barbell, hand weights, ankle weights, gloves, and step it is just too much, especially on the weekdays. I don't mind a few things, but I feel like I am dragging an entire gym...

    3 weeks late, but what is going on?

    sorry to keep you in such suspense, Gina. I have been so busy and haven't been able to check out the forum in awhile. I am not pregnant, my body was just doing something crazy. It took two days for my doctor to call me with the test results and I was sick to my stomach with nerves the whole...

I want to take up walking again and maybe incorporate some running but I need a program, some tips and definitely some modivation! Also does anyone use hand weights while walking?

    I need some killer ab work

    LAST EDITED ON Feb-21-02 AT 10:59AM (Est)[p]man you guys are full of ideas! Actually, annette, my husband also suggested doing ab work on a decline and that sounds like a really good idea. I guess it is true what they say: great minds think alike. Everyone has one body part that is stronger than...

    I need some killer ab work

    thaks for your speedy reply, annette. But that is the thing, it was never difficult for me. I have always been very strong in my abs and have always been able to do a lot of ab work without getting tired. But I will try the leg position thing you mentioned. And I would still like to know which...
