    What keeps everyone motivated?

    RE: Motivation! Negativity!!!! I thrive off of it! What got me dieting in the first place was this fat guy at work on the afternoon shift. I came in early to work (I work midnights) he says to me, "God, Kelly, What have you been eating?" He says this in front of everyone! I snapped back...

    I don't like the look of this

    Kathy, Make sure you are getting a good shoulder workout as well. It will help put your body more in proportion. I have a complete pear shape and that is what I have been doing. I carry all my weight below the waist. I remember reading that in one of the fitness magazines because it...

    ? for the educated crowd

    She is thinking like how I used to way back. I think CTX is definately a good start. But what she is thinking is spot reducing. If I only work on the butt and legs then this will be the area that gets fit....wrong! She needs a clean diet, cardio and weight training in order to lose the fat...

    BFL: Can anyone tell me about it?

    Oops, forgot to mention the cardio thing. The book says to do High Intenstive Interval training. Which basically is doing cardio on say a treadmill for 20 minutes. Start slow and increase your speed/incline each minute for like 5 minutes then bring it back down and repeat. I personally don't...

    BFL: Can anyone tell me about it?

    Candice, I am currently doing Body For Life right now. I love it. You should pick up the book. Everything is broke down very easily. It has a list of foods to eat from. Protein, Carbs and Vegetables. You pick a Carb and Protein from the plan and that is considered a meal. Add a...

    Worst sound while working out?

    I have heard that slapping sound before, but from my thighs slapping together. I bought some spandex shorts to hold it all in. I look horrible and I don't let anyone see me in this. Maybe you could find a spandex type shirt to work out in. I carry most of my weight in my lower body. Kelly

    New Videos?

    If this has been posted already, please forgive me, I haven't seen it. Does anyone know when the new workouts are coming out? What type of workouts is Cathe doing this time? I heard she is doing a yoga one, but that is all I heard so far. Thanks, Kelly

    On Lunges What Leg Should I Feel It In?

    I always wondered about that myself. I am MAKING myself do lunges and I hate it! LOL! But it works. Its weird though...while I am doing them, I feel it in my quads. But the next day, my butt and hamstrings are sore. I am still a bit wobbly, but my technique is improving each time. This is...

    You pick Cathe's music

    If you could pick Cathe's music for her next step video....what bands/type would it be? I would pick some Motley Crue, Poison, Kiss, Aerosmith, Skid Row any 80's hair bands. I would love to do a step video to that. Classic Rock would be fun too. I know you can always play the music on your...

    Question on protein shakes

    LAST EDITED ON Apr-27-02 AT 06:09AM (Est)[p]Definately use the shakes if your not eating often enough. I drink 3 to 4 a day. Its hard for me to get my meals in as well. I use the Twin Lab Super Whey Fuel, strawberry banana flavored. Its my favorite so far. Low in fat and carbs. There are...

    Body for Life?

    Terry, The only supplements used are Protein shakes. You almost need these anyway unless you don't work. Trying to eat 6 times a day with the amount of protein your body needs is hard to plan. Pretty much any good whey protein will do. You don't necessarily have to use the one that they...

    Body for Life?

    Judy, No, my last name isn't sixx. Actually, I always had a crush on Nikki Sixx from Motley Crue. That is where I got my name. You think for being almost 30, I would grow out of that kinda thing! I am so immature sometimes! Hey, it wasn't Nikki you worked with was it??? For the Body...

    To the educated crowd, I need advise!

    This is just my opinion. I would think he needs to do cardio as well. Tell him to do his weight training and cardio afterwards 25 to 30 minutes minimum 3-5 times a week. Make sure he is on a clean diet and he should see the results he wants to see. Make sure he is getting enough protein as...

    So Confused!!!!

    RE: Carbs are terrific! Ok....Lets confuse you some more. Because the way I do it is...no carbs before a cardio workout. That way you tap into fat stores. If you eat carbs before a workout, your body will use the carbs first, then the fat for energy. Now on weight lifting days you can eat...

    Healthy Eating Advice Please

    Lori, I do the Body For Life program. I don't know exactly how WW works. But let me ask you this? Are you eating 5 to 6 times a day? If not, you should be. That helped me break through my plateau. Are you using protein drinks? If not, you may want to try this as well. Kelly

    What have I done!!!

    I have been looking at Cathe's videos over and over for the past month now. Every time I think I know which one to get...I change my mind! Everyone has a different opinion on what is the best. I love lifting weights and step aerobics. Those are my 2 favorite exercises. I only have 2 or 3...

    Is it just me?

    Yep, I am another one. If I go off my diet I will instantly gain weight. I am 140lbs right now, I want to be around 115lbs...so I guess I should try and get down to 110lbs. That way I have a 5 pound lee way. Though I have hit a fricken plateu here lately. I lost 15lbs pretty easy, now it...
