    Chicago Vacation

    Hi Allison - I live in the Chicago suburbs west of Oak Brook and work downtown. The bike tour looks like fun. I just recently did a Segway tour on the lake front with a group of people from work. It was fun to do a tour even as a local. Since you'll be at Navy Pier, you might want to...

    Please pray, Strate of Michigan Shut down has started.. Thanks.

    RE: Please pray, Strate of Michigan Shut down has start... Jennifer - I grew up in Detroit. My dad still lives there and it's still a decent area. I must say that downtown Detroit is in much better shape these past few years than when I went to high school down there in the late 80's. As...

    Please pray, Strate of Michigan Shut down has started.. Thanks.

    RE: Please pray, Strate of Michigan Shut down has start... Wow - I had no idea. I'm sure we'll be hearing about this nationally soon. I just moved back to Illinois from Michigan last fall. I grew up in Michigan and moved back there for 2 1/2 years after living in the Chicago area for 10...

    Whole grain vs. whole wheat

    Whole grain is a broader term which includes whole wheat (i.e., wheat is just one type of grain.) Hope my description makes sense.

    Most common baby names

    Janet - I have a Jacob born in 1999 too! DH and I decided back in 1991 (while we were still dating in college) that when we were married and had kids, we would name our boy Jake and our girl Emma. When Jake was born in 1999, we decided to name him Jacob so that he had a proper name...

    Any Silly Song fans?

    Oh my, yes!! We borrowed the Ultimate Silly Song Countdown DVD from the library about a month ago and my whole family is hooked. We've bought a few of the DVDs "for the kids" in the past few weeks. I keep saying it's "for the kids" but that doesn't quite explain me searching the web for Silly...

    OT: looking for

    Have you looked at the Franklin Covey planners? The one that I use has a monthly calendar followed by 2 pages per day. The page on the left is for your appointments and to-do list. The page on the right is blank for your notes. Here's the link to their planner pages...

    PROBLEMS WITH BB AGAIN.

    Mariangeles - I ordered the new Turbo Jam Lives around 12/19. I received a shipping notice on 12/27 (stating that my order was shipped on 12/23)and that I should receive the package in up 2 weeks. The tracking link shows that the shipper received the package on 12/29 in California. I called...

    YOU CAN ORDER THE TWO TURBO JAM LIVE WORKOUTS

    You can also ask for the 20% repeat customer discount. I received 20% off the $29.90 price for a total of $23.92 plus $5.95 shipping. I've also heard that some CS reps are giving the 20% off discount and others are not. It's amazing to me the confusion over at Beachbody.

    YOU CAN ORDER THE TWO TURBO JAM LIVE WORKOUTS

    I learned about them last week while I was chatting with Beachbody customer service about replacing a defective Cardio Party dvd. I asked if any of the new Turbo Jam workouts were available and the rep said that 2 new ones were available. Apparently people are getting different stories about...

    Shoes

    I wear Shox crosstrainers and I absolutely love them. I started with a pair of the Shox Rhythm last summer. I needed extra cushioning to relieve some problems I was having with my Achilles tendon and the Shox Rhythm have the best cushioning of any crosstrainers I've owned. I just bought 2...

    Turbo Jams - Delux

    Cheryl, I was able to order them over the phone with Beachbody. However, I posted about this over at the Video Fitness forum too and it sounds like it depends on who you talk to at BB. Some reps say it's not available, another said the dvds will not ship for a few weeks, and someone else...

    Turbo Jams - Delux

    I was on the phone with Beachbody today and found out that 2 new Turbo Jam dvds are available now: Cardio Party Remix and Booty Sculpt & Abs (I'm not sure of the exact title of this one). The price for both dvds was $29.90 and I was able to use the 20% off repeat customer discount. I don't...

    Achilles

    I had this problem about a year ago when I started to do more high impact and step workouts. I think what I had was Achilles tendonitis. I used ice in the area, took a little break from the high impact and step workouts, wore flatter shoes, did some stretches for the area, and it eventually...

    Where can I find a decent suit??

    Along the same line as Petite Sophisticate...Casual Corner. I like their Collectibles suit separates. BTW, they're currently having a sale on their fall suits.
