I have a weakness for celebrity gossip, I admit it. But imagine my surprise to see an uncredited pic of Cathe on one of the sites! Check it out -- they could at least link to you. http://pagesixsixsix.com/modules/news/article.php?storyid=108

I've never bought them pre-made, but have rigged something like them when I'm having bad plantar fasciitis (arch pain). Basically, this is a sock that has a band that runs from the toe tip up to the top of the knee high sock. You wear them while sleeping, and they keep the plantar facsii (I...

I had totally switched from the Firm to Cathe, but then got waylaid by pneumonia for a few months. The Firm was a great way to get back my fitness level so I could even think of doing Cathe! I confess that my Leslie Sansone 4mile WATP got used too. I think there's a time for almost any...

I used to tell them I was a hard stick, because I'd been told that in the past by the people in the labs. Funny thing though, after losing 80 pounds and exercising regularly, I'm now an easy stick! Less to have to go through to get to them, I guess. One of the lesser known benefits of losing...

My oldest son hated the binky, so I was astonished when my youngest just adored his. He was so attached to it, and it really helped him calm down during the day and to go to sleep at night. I couldn't justify taking away something that was so important to him, just because of some arbitrary...

I am so totally in the minority -- no one uses my brand! I sweat like a pig, and always have. I use Dry Idea roll on because nothing else works. It's great! The stick and gel aren't nearly as effective.

It's not from a movie, it's from a Monty Python episode. They keep interurrpting the show with a slide that shows a picture of a tree, while the voice-over says, "number one: the larch", as if it's an educational slide show. The thing is, there's never a number two or three. It's always...

What makes me crazy about the PETA crowd is their ignorance! I am a fiber artist, and to that end, I spin my own yarn out of wool. These folks will show up at sheep shows/fairs and form a chain by linking their arms while chanting about saving the sheep. Dudes -- they're sheep. If you don't...

You will probably want a barbell and plates. I got mine from Amazon -- this is the one: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0000BZF2D/sr=1- It looks a lot like the one Cathe and crew use. Can't speak to the medicine ball and tubing since I don't own any videos (yet -- hardcore...

This one sandwich is 37 WW points. I believe it beats out the previous high-pointer, the Bloomin' Onion. Oh my heavens.

I have this one down. For Christmas/winter holiday gifts, I give a bucket of microwave popcorn (looks likes a movie theater bucket, but microwave -- I find mine at Blockbuster), a big box of movie type candy, and a gift card for video rentals that will get about 3 rentals. You can pack the...

I have a D foot with a narrow heel and very high arch. I've done well with Ryka's for lifting and aerobics, and I have a pair of Mizuno Wave Runners for running. They are great.

I have to chime in with praise for Cardio and Weights. I'm also an ex-Firmie, and this tape was a great transition for me. I'm coming off of an exercising hiatus (pneumonia and 2 deaths in the family) and find that this tape is great to get me back into the swing of things as well. It...

I'm in Wilmington, DE. We have Comcast digital, and we don't get FitTV. I've asked them to add it about 3 times in the past few months. 242/151/135

Wow -- thanks for the knowledgable and detailed response! I appreciate it. I'm glad to know I'm on the right track. Darn genetics.

This is probably weird, but my number one fitness goal has been to develop those dimples on the lower back either side of the spine just above the butt. Is there an exercise that's good for that? I've read some things that claim that those dimples are genetic -- well, my two kids have them, so...

I have to tell you, Push/Pull is pure fun! I look forward to doing it, and have had to make myself pick something else many times just to get some variety. The inner thigh squeeze with the stability ball just NAILS my inner thighs. And the rest of it is just a blast. I also really like ME...

If you look at "behind the scenes" on the homepage, you can find out more about the music in each series. That song is "Morena", by a band called Hacienda. I suspect that it was made as stock, but don't know much about Spanish music. 242/151/135

I've lost 90 pounds eating lowfat (WW online) and I swear by any of the Cooking Light Cookbooks. If you were only going to get one, I'd get The Complete Cooking Light Cookbook. It has everything in it from wonderful salads to great main dishes (meatloaf!) and desserts. I use this one a...

I turned 40 on 4/4/04 -- my motto was "fit by 40" and I think I made it! Happy to be able to do Cathe videos now, and I hope she keeps it up so I can age gracefully along with her. 242/151/135
