    Anyone Struggling With High Utility Bills?

    It seems to me that prices for everything are going up: energy, food, whatever! But what kills me about food prices going up is when I see all the fields here in California lying fallow because the government won't let them have water! :mad:

    Oil Pulling

    I tried it once last week and it totally grossed me out to have all that oil in my mouth! However, I guess I will give it another try now that I am reading of its benefits. I just got the organic coconut oil at Trader Joe's for 5.99

    Collage Video Going Out of Biz Sale

    I only ordered two for $16 total. I am looking forward to doing them as they got great ratings and look really good. Anyway, some of the prices are not that great and I figure if I am only going to get a few bucks off it is not really worth it to me. Again, I am sad they are closing! I...

    Any suggestions on puzzle mats?

    I got my puzzle mats at Walmart, they are very sturdy and have been wonderful for me! I work out 5-6 times per week and do it all and high impact....I also workout in my garage, if you don't want them to move, you might want to use double sided carpet tape. My total mat size is 10 x 12 and...

    What is the oldest work out tape/DVD that you still do?

    Actually, I finally ditched my last VHS tape last year...(The firm's Tough Tape with Tracie Long). I just did not want to keep my VHS player anymore! But. Even though I am a devoted Cathlete with just about every one of her dvds, I made the investment and got all the old Firms on DVD! I did...

    activity and calorie level????

    This is getting off topic a bit, but CDPotier, I find it interesting that you say you are hungry all the time, because I generally am too. I am tall at 5'9", workout 45 to 90 minutes per day (depending how I feel) and find that I am hungry all the time too. I am seriously limiting my calories...

    Oscar Round-up

    Well, even though I didn't watch the Oscars, I appreciated that Matthew M. Acknowledged God in his speech since Hollywood (and even America) seems so anti-God these days. (I watched his speech on you tube). I also appreciated that he got up there prepared. He had enough respect for the honor...

    FYI: KCM fans

    I really like KCM, but will probably only get the Lifting DVD, unless the cardio interval impresses me more than I am anticipating it will.

    Mat for a Step

    If I were you, I would go to a good thrift store, buy a yoga mat, clean it well and cut yourself a mat to cover your step.... Now, look, I love Cathe and am a devotee of her, however, I bought her step mat and really it is not that great...I just expected it to be better quality and it wasn't...

    Warning for Shakeology Users

    Fitnessblender.com is a very quality website created by a classy couple who regularly post full workouts ranging from strength training, Hiit, Tabata, kettle bell, etc... They decided to do them all for free because there was no quality website out there that offered good, safe, educated...

    Warning for Shakeology Users

    I have recently become a fan of fitnessblender.com and have watched some of their videos. One of them was very interesting, they basically said that we don't need protein powders, we get enough protein in our diets as it is. They said if any "fitness professional" tries to get you to buy...

    Horizontal Conditioning Volume II

    I have most of HC and sadly, I am just not a big fan. I like my weight lifting, and while I am in good shape, I found some of them just over the top in terms of difficulty! And I workout 6 days a week and do Cathe without modifications....so i just set these aside and have not done them for...
