Becky, Thanks so much for your feedback and the link to the blood diet. I briefly checked out the link, but will need to review more carefully. I can see that you and others are correct in that I just have to eat clean to get results. Thanks again for taking the time to respond everyone. Linda

Thanks for your encouragement ladies. It just keeps getting better - I ran 5.5 miles today, and felt great. I used to do a lot of running but I hadn't since I had twins five years ago. It was no struggle at all thanks to Cathe's training program. Linda

...at the increase in my stamina since I've been doing the new workouts (and others) consistently for the past 3 months. Today, for the first time in ages, I did Imax3, and lo and behold I held in there throughout the whole thing. I made a modification on the one where you jump on the floor the...

Alexandra, We have a lot of similarities. I am 5'4" also and was 180 when I started WW, got down to 150 in March (in about 12 or 13 weeks) then went off WW for the summer and gained back about 8lbs. I am also an apple body type. Since Cathe put out the new workouts and I got motivated again...

Sally, I'm sure you are correct that it is more likely my diet that needs a shake up. I have lost about 5lbs since the time I got the new workouts and starting doing the longer and tougher routines daily, but that is probably about all that is going to budge unless I change the eating. I...

Hi Cathe, First, I want to commend you and thank you and your team for the incredible workouts you have produced over the years. I love the new ones especially, and can say without any reservation that they have changed my life, enabling me to get into shape and lose 32lbs since January 2006...

Janie, Thanks for sharing your pics. You really look fabulous and you must feel it too. I loved your hobby pics also. Wow. what a talented and fit woman! Keep it up. Linda

I've always wondered about that too. I always love to see behind the scenes stuff. Linda

Hi Jenni, I don't even know what diastatis is, but I wanted to congratulate you on your twins. As a mom of five year old twins myself, I am impressed that you on the board and thinking exercise at five weeks post partum. Good luck and enjoy your babies. Linda

Hi again, Thanks so much for your encouragement guys! I had been recovering from an ear infection when I posted the original message, and I hadn't realized how much of my wimpyness with BM2 was due to that. Now I've been working on the new DVDs for a week, I feel ready for the challenge of DM...

RE: Aerboic floor and doubling up puzzle mats. I have the kids puzzle mats. They felt great when I first put them down on my ceramic tile floor, but I've been aware that really I should have got them thicker ones designed for athletic flooring. If anyone has doubled them up (layer-wise), how...

I work out in my basement. I consider myself pretty lucky because there is ample space for just about any workout I want to do. The problem is that I share the space with my five year old twins for their playroom. Oftentimes, before a w/o I have to clear away piles of toys before I can begin...

RE: Will I be able to do Drill Max if Body Max is a str... Thanks Angela for the info, which is really helpful. I have little doubt that I'll end up buying drill max at some point anyway, but based on what you have said, I may hold off until I get bored with my current selection (which is Cathe...

I got Body Max and LIC, but not Drill Max because I was afraid it would be too much on the level of Imax 3 (in terms of jumping intensity). Now I have done Body Max and can do the whole thing on a 6-inch step, after first section on 8in. Cardio Fusion I also got thru with modifications and on...

Thanks so much Kathy and A-Jock for coming to my rescue. I had previously come across the link you sent me Kathy, but in most cases the specs lists were not specific about programability. Often times, they would state that CDs could be programmed, but no mention on DVDs. Of course as previously...

I posted last week requesting advice about DVD changers that work for programming across disks to enable custom workouts. Alas, not one response was posted to my request. Thinking that I was perhaps suspected of laziness, I embarked on a search of past forums and found a few threads on the...

Hi Randi, Welcome from another twin mum. I've been doing Cathe workouts ever since my twins were born and they have been a life saver for me. I used to be a runner, but being unable to leave the house to run, I began doing Cathe while the boys took their naps. Now they are five years old...

I know this type of workout is not for everyone, but from reading posts over the years there does seem to be a core segment of Cathe fans that would love another Rhythmic Step/Step Blast sort of workout with that wonderful fun factor. I love the intensity and calorie burning potential of these...

Hi, I just ordered six new Cathe DVDs and, wanting to get the most out of my collection, I want to try my hand at customizing my workouts by using the DVD programming function. There is a small problem: I don't have a programmable DVD changer. I did some on line searching, but cannot find...

Cathe's circuit workouts (especially the hi-low aerobics bits) are so tough. I have been avoiding them for years, but wanting something different to do this morning, I did circuit max just now. It took so much more out of me than doing any of the step ones I do (except for Imax3). It felt good...
