    My cancer ruined my 2 years of hard work

    Hello, I just wanted to say that I wish you the very best and to tell you how proud I am of you for all you have managed to do just getting to this point. I watched my little girl undergo chemotherapy (and radiotherapy) for brain cancer and it was horrible. She has been 14 months off...

    Fat Loss: Clean Eating vs "Everything in Moderation"

    RE: Fat Loss: Clean Eating vs Yes, but one musn't forget that our bodies are built by the foods we eat so in effect, you are what you eat. If you eat a diet of too much junk food versus the same calories in good old healthy food your body would certainly know the difference and it would...

    Why is it that heavier people are so critical????

    I don't think there is any point taking personal offence to this post. I get a little critisism from people (like my overweight, lazy sister.. who I love :-) ) but I know it is because they/she secretly wish they had a little more get up and go.. enough to lose thier own weight or to walk more...

    weighted balls

    Hi.. I found some weighted balls at Target recently. There were several sizes.. 0.5, 1, 2 and 3 kilo's in all. They appear to be filled with sand? I have noticed a medicine ball is used in the Bootcamp workout and I think one of these could quite possibly substitiute for that but what about...

    carbs and the rest of the world

    I must admit I find it difficult to live without the rice and bread and other such carbs although, I do appreciate how good I feel without these foods. Go Figure! My observations regarding the low carb 'craze' cause me quite an amount of stress as I usually don't know how I should be eating...

    Thank you everyone.. and thank you Cathe! What a treat to hear from you. :) Seeing as though I have what is basically the equivalent of 5's, 10's and 12's (close enough) I will now pursue the 8's, 15's and 20's. Thank you for your help. Have a lovely day, Kelly ;-)

    dumbbell requirements

    Hello, I have 3 DVD's.. the Power Hour+ dvd, Pure Strength and Pyramids. At the moment it isn't possible to have a barbell so I am going to use dumbells as many ladies have confirmed that you can successfully substitute dumbells in the exercises. So.. I am putting together a collection of...

    Firm Ya Yas

    Hi, Apparently a change of servers has made all the links TO the site and WITHIN the site obsolete. I had been trying to get in for days.. and I thought it was just me so I am relieved to learn that it is a dilemma for all and it is being remedied! Kelly

    Hands go numb when I run...Why?

    Hi, I also have this problem when I walk which I attributed to the fact that when you are moving your blood is circulating and your hands may not get a good share of the blood because it is circulating elsewhere? I also have Carpal Tunnel though. However, here is a quote from a friend who...

    Have they gone mad at Ebay?

    Hi there...... I am quite pleased someone brought this up, I also watched that auction for the KPC/Leg and Glutes DVD in the UK sky rocket. I was hoping to bid on it myself.. I did in fact bid but was out bid almost instantly. I watched the auction climb way out of control pretty much...

    Does Anyone Else Despise Artificial Sweetners?

    No, I'm right there with you.. I hate the taste of artificial sweetners! I tend to think that even though we WANT to eat well and avoid the foods that are obviously bad for us we also have to live.. any food you are going to eat shouldn't be "struggled" through.. that is a horrible concept...

    Cardio on "Body For Life"

    RE: Cardio on Thank you for the advice, I had never thought of wearing two bras at the same time. I am going to try that. What do you think of bootcamp as an appropriate cardio workout? I had a look at the clip last night and it looked fantastic! The intervals dvd looks a bit scarey to me...

    Cardio on "Body For Life"

    RE: Cardio on Hi janice, Ha ha .. No! you don't have to be a certain weight or fitness level to run on the streets of Sydney.. unless it's Bondi Beach or some place where only the lifesavers and crazily fit people run! I meant I am still too heavy and unfit to run outside as opposed...

    Cardio on "Body For Life"

    RE: Cardio on Hi Lori, Thanks you your reply.. Which of Cathes DVD's are interval workouts? I am still too heavy and unfit to run outside yet but I do get what you saying. I have a goal to run outside eventually. I live in Sydney which is slowly approaching Autumn so it is going to get...

    Cardio on "Body For Life"

    Hi.. Can I ask any of you doing "Body For Life", what sort of cardio do you do? I invisaged that I could possibly do an aerobic dvd in my house to fulfill my cardio portions of the plan but I only have a Leslie Sansone, Walk away the pounds (3 mile) and a Susan Powter dvd. Are these going to...
