    Ireland

    Funny you mention the Guinness! I'm not big on those cans of it here in the lower 48, but I've heard it's a completely different brew out there, so no way will I pass it up (nor the Murphy's). Now we're trying to find B&Bs within walking distance of pubs, since we hear the roads are...

    Ireland

    Hi, and thanks for your feedback, especially since you're a lurker! I'm hoping you'll decide not to lurk once more. We're flying into and out of Dublin, and we're thinking maybe since we aren't big on crowds, we might try to find a smaller town somewhere west/northwest or southwest of Dublin...

    Ireland

    Funny, we just adopted a kitty and named her Lizzie. She's a sweet little grey Oriental SH (like a Siamese, only without the points). Anyway...I'll let you know what not to miss after we get back. We're leaving on the 11th of March!! I fear it'll be too chilly to cycle, seeing as how I'm a...

    Ireland

    I'm going there with a longtime girlfriend and her daughter, am v.v. excited, to paraphrase Bridget Jones! Anybody who's been have any helpful tips or off-the-beaten-track places they'd like to share? We're planning on doing the usual touristy stuff (Ring of Kerry, although Dingle Peninsula...

    Online calculation of Body Fat percentage

    Amen Sister. I have the utmost admiration for the women on this site who really seem to have it together diet-wise. But I just can't envision living the rest of my life without (choose one or all): caffeine, chocolate, sugar in or on anything, good-quality French fries, or anything else I...

    Yoohoo, Susan Harris fans!

    Boob job. Definitely. I don't care how much pec work you do. Wondered where she'd gone, though. Thanks for the info! Every time I do the Time Cruch video (and I've been doing it for years), I think to myself, "How come I keep getting older but Susan and Kai stay so darn young??" LOL -:P

    Help! I'm brand-new!

    Wow, You are Amazing!! I don't have weight to lose, just need to tone and firm, but what an inspiration to see your photos. Thanks for the words of encouragement too.

    Today's Washington Post

    Yep, and that's why I just ordered one of her DVDs! I've been a FIRMie for years (although not as Firm as I'd like) and relish a challenging workout that I can do in the privacy of my home, whenever I want (and am able). What I'm now wondering is whether her videos are only available online...

    Online calculation of Body Fat percentage

    Funny...I got the EXACT same numbers as you. I'm 5'8 and 139, and I know I need to lean down too. I have a body fat scale which usually puts me between 28-30%, and I always (now I'm thinking somewhat naively) thought it was erring on the "fat" side, because when I've used that thingie that...

    Breast Lump

    Hi - I guess you've gotten back to the OB/GYN by now. I had a benign lump removed many years ago, and the only comment I can make is that I'm surprised your surgeon wasn't more aggressive 3 years ago in removing and/or biopsying the lump. I guess maybe you could find that encouraging now...

    Anyone going to see The passion of the Christ?

    Amen to that, and I'm not even religious. The only reason I'd watch it is because I think Jim Caviezel is hunky, and that's a really, really pathetic reason to see a movie ostensibly about Jesus' last 24. Plus, I heard it's gratuitously gory. Who needs it? Stay home and rent "Lost in...

    Help! I'm brand-new!

    After using the FIRM videos for years and years, I just learned of Cathe through my local newspaper (people wrote in to the health section recommending their favorite exercise videos, and she was mentioned twice). I just ordered the Power Hour/MIS/Body Max DVD and am a little scared that I'll...
