O.K...I'll admit to the fact that I've had this DVD since it was first released and only used the double upper body premix on it :o shhhh, please don't tell ;-) Anyway, I stuck it in this a.m. thinking, "I am going to do the whole workout, in it's original form. YEAH RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!! Now I...

You know, I used to say in the a.m. after a few cups of coffee and a boal of hot oatmeal. But lately I have been getting up really early (due to my workout space being taken over by contractors who are finishing our basement), not eating anything and able to push a bit harder during my cardio...

Thanks everyone! I am in the last half of my cycle so thanks for posting that, it may be part of it. Honestly, I was really trying to not eat as "much" clean foods, as the scale kept creeping up, so I thought that I must not have an accurate grip on my portions. I was skipping snacks and just...

Can this be the case? For the last 2 weeks or so I've increased my intensity working out. For example, instead of doing Low Max on 1 riser, I am doing it with 2. Instead of running for 20 minutes on the treadmill I am now doing 45 minutes to an itread workout. I am lifting more weight also...

Ooooh, I remember those days :-) When mine were that young (now 7 and 4 yrs). I wasn't as "fit" when my first was that young, so I resorted to walking w/her in the stroller. When my second came along I ran on the treadmill while he took his morning nap. When I discovered Cathe I started...

What is Itread? And where can I find it? Don't mean to change the subject. But I've heard Itread referenced a few times. Is this a downloadable treadmill workout that you need an Ipod or MP3 player to use? Sorry, Becky

I HATE this!! I do so well for a couple of weeks, and then BAM..I'm diving into pizza and granola bars! Has anyone else found it to be very hard to do? Is there something "magical" that happens after that 2 week mark? HELP, I'll take any and all suggestions! Thanks, Becky

I so know what you mean! I did GS C&T's and I could hardly lift my arms to wash my hair in the shower or even blow dry my hair. I felt that workout for 4 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Becky

Hey There! I just wanted to add my two cents here. It is however, my opinion and nothing else. I am a nurse and I can't tell you how many times we have had to re-hydrate someone who consumes these beverages. These same people also come in complaining of heart palpitations, and a general "too...

I think I will take your guys' advice and have some "allowance days". I will eat clean and save up to have a small treat now and then. Thanks for such great input and helpful ideas. You guys are great! Becky

Thanks to you all! I need that sort of talk once in awhile. I woke up this a.m. and had a bowl of oatmaeal and natural PB. Today will be a better day! Becky

I have been focusing on eating "clean", and have done very well for the last week and a half or so (maybe even 2 weeks). Today has been awful for me! I had a grilled cheese sand for lunch, a sub sandwich for dinner and a couple of malted milk balls. I guess this is considered a "binge" day...

I have really focused on my eating lately and kept it clean. Then today...BAM!! I am eating ritz crackers, a sub sandwich, a couple of malted milk balls. Anyone else have days like these? I'm feel'n bad! Becky

I tore my ACL in 1990, while downhill skiing. When I tore it, it hurt like a well, you know :) Anyway, I had an Orthopedic Surgeon who specialized in Sports Medicine do my repair. It was very painful and my recovery was not easy. In fact, I grow scar tissue at an unbelievable rate, and I...

RE: Please explain Thanks for the information....I have a friend who has mentioned a couple of times to me that I should find a different exercise to "add variety". I guess because I'm always talking about Cathe, and maybe not mentioning the yoga, or the occasional run. I have however...

I absolutely LOVE step aerobics, and LOVE Cathe. I try to rotate through some of her DVD's that I own, so I'm not always doing cardio or always lifting. I do tend to do more cardio though. Since it's been snowing here where I live, I have gotten out to cross country ski, and I have dabbled...

For me the trick is to cut out all refined foods. I eat clean "as much as I can". I am however human too. BUT, when I've omitted all the junk out of my diet, I really don't crave sugary stuff. And if I am, I always grab a piece of fruit or make a fruit salad w/SF FF Van Pudding...YUM...

I'm asking this because for the past 3.5yrs I have been very dedicated to eating well and working out. I work out 5-6 times a week, sometimes a bit less for approx 1hour per day. I have lost approx 35# (I am 5'1"). I had a co-worker come up and say to me, "Look at your legs, one of your...
