    I did it!!!!!!!!!

    Nice one LeslieMarie! Exercising always lifts the mood, doesn't it? It always makes me wonder, therefore, why more people don't give it a try...or at least stick at it. The post-exercise high is so addictive!

    I'm just too happy

    I've just had my 13 week scan and WOW - I'm carrying a little gymnast. it was trying it's hardest to do somersaults. We were absolutely amazed :-) All that movement and I couldn't even feel it! It's my 4th scan so far and I've watched it progress from a jelly bean to a tiny human being...

    Any over 40 (or nearly 40) gals out there?

    Hi there! I'm not too far behind you, age wise, I'm 37 next week and I have my first on the way too(10 weeks gone!). Unfortunately I can't exercise at the moment, got to remain rested :-( and believe me it's killing me. I feel like 10 tonne Tessie right now, I haven't actually gained any...

    What do UKers use instead of the high step?

    I'm reluctant to pay the high shipping and customs charges to import a High Step from America into the UK so I wondered what anyone else has purchased in its place. I've searched high and low to buy something similar/suitable to the High Step but have drawn a blank.

    What do you do when DH is out of town?

    "Jumping my bones"...what a funny expression! I like that one :-) Hubby is actually going away for a few days in May and as much as I love the very ground he walks upon, I like the idea of getting some time on my own and enjoying a very tidy house whilst he is away and definitely NO cooking...

    This is bothering me

    Hi Wayne I think Cathe's using low weights to prevent people feeling intimidated. If a person is new to exercise and sees a 40lb barbell then, quite possibly, that beginner exerciser could very well be put off even considering the tape as it would appear out of reach. Also, I'm talking...

    Anti stretch mark creams

    Help! I'm very confused about creams. I currently use a very rich emollient cream as an all over moisturiser. Been using the same thing (E45) now for about 15 years and my skin is in very good condition. But...I've been reading about anti strech mark creams and what I have read seems to go...

    Venting- How would you react?

    Has your friend got a boyfriend? Maybe when she settles down with the right man (a long term meaningful relationship rather than shorter term flings) then maybe, just maybe the attention she gets from other people will no longer be so important and then she'll probably grow out of her ways.

    Started bleeding again

    That's very sound advice Christy! I've just bought some crisps (potato chips?) which have now gone in the bin! Damn, they tasted so good too...Thai Sweet Chilli...

    Started bleeding again

    Exactly, no exercise for me for a while and it's killing me but I'll not succumb to temptation, besides which my DVD player broke down on Thursday so it looks like someone up there is looking after my interests :-)

    Started bleeding again

    On Wednesday I was feeling great and looking forward to working out that evening but a couple of hours after posting of my intention to start working out again I started bleeding quite heavily while at work. I was rushed off to hospital but I couldnt have a scan as the department was closed...

    Winsor Pilates

    I ordered the Winsor pilates (3 tape set) after seeing it on TV about this time last year. I previewed the instructional, tried the beginner tape several times which was far too easy and then moved on to the advanced tape. I thought it was a great change at first but then I got completely...

    8 week scan

    I had my first scan on Friday (7 weeks 6 days precisely) and it was wonderful to see my little baby's heart beating on the screen! It looked like a little jelly bean with a heartbeat. I could hardly contain myself in the scan room, it was such a precious moment. We were given a photo of the...

    Do you have cathe's older power max step tape?

    PowerMax is my absolute favourite! I feel guilty when (on the odd occasion) I have to bump this one to the back of the cue to make way for Cathe's other step w/o on a step only day. As for the whooping in the background, I think it's great. I like to hear them all enjoying themselves and...
