I've been reading Alex Kava since her first book. I found her quite by accident. LOVE her! I eagerly await anything new from her too! Just finished "Gone Girl". It was good. I am not a big movie goer, but find myself wanting to see how the movie compares to the book.

I think it was 1998, so about 16 years? I ordered Maximum Intensity Strength and the rest is history!

I've had two loved ones go through the surgery, and both said that it was a terrible recovery.... worse than the hemorrhoids. One of those two had a recurrence of the hemorroids, so it was definitely not worth it for him. As someone who has given birth, I've experienced my share of them...

I find it interesting that so many people poo-poo the effectiveness of workout DVDs. I chalk it up to ignorance and let it go. My friends who are holding the interval classes that I go to, used to refer to my DVDs as my "little workouts". After they saw what I could do in the classes because...

I have been working out at home for years doing DVDs. I do mostly Cathe, but also others like Bob Harper, Illaria, Amy Bento, etc. I'm not much of a gym goer, but recently a good friend of mine has opened a new training facility in town. He is trying to help get the word out about his...

Yes Anne! I agree! I don't deny myself treats either. I just moderate how much of the treat I eat. If I want a dessert, I get it but only eat a little bit. I enjoy a cocktail every Saturday night on our night out, but only one. I love a lemon drop martini, but I find that I am dehydrated...

I think it's important to point out that everybody's experience with menopause is different. I did not have to change anything in my diet and my body composition and weight has not changed. I am 57 and went through menopause about 4 years ago. I continue to do the workouts I've always...

I have a lot of alterations done on my clothing because it's not always easy to find stuff small enough. Based on what I've learned from doing that, I would say that these dresses would not be easily altered. The material is thin and stretchy and made to hang kind of loose, which in my opinion...

Here are the two dresses I tried on: Embellished Printed Halter Dress Another embellished printed halter dress I think we are probably talking about the same dresses. They are SO cute, but the photo is deceiving. They are very loose fitting and long. You are smaller than I am, and if the...

Are you talking about Macy's INC line? If so, their sizes run big. I have to shop in their petite sizes for dresses and skirts. I wear their Petite/petite or petite/small, depending on the cut of the dress or skirt. For reference, I am 5'7" tall and weigh 115 lbs. Which dresses are...

I picked a bunch of blueberries this past weekend. Yummy! Sorry, I don't have any particular recipes. I eat mine on my cereal and in my ice cream. I also give some away to neighbors. That's always a nice option! Enjoy!

You definitely should be cognizant of this as you age. I fell over my step doing a step workout about 3 years ago and broke my wrist. I was 54 at the time. I hadn't seated the top of the step properly on the risers, and when my foot hit it at just the right angle the top slipped off. I fell...

My workout room floor is tile. I have wall to wall puzzle mats over the tile, but I have two layers of them. If you're worried about high impact and injuries, one layer isn't enough!

I signed up a few months ago and kind of wish I hadn't. To be honest, the quality isn't all that great. I've gotten a couple of outfits, but only because I forgot to "refuse" my monthly outfit and my credit card was charged. Right now I have one credit ($49). I'll use that up and get myself...

It seems that in the last few years, all the comfort brand styles have been getting uglier. They're all clunky looking. I love sandals, but they have to be CUTE and COMFY. That's getting harder to find. I don't like the look of any Birkenstocks or Tevas or any of those. In the past, Born...

Same here! My tuck jumps are almost non existant. My air jacks are okay, but nowhere near the lift that Cathe has. That said, my legs are about 7 inches longer than hers! LOL! I really think these kinds of moves are easier for people with shorter legs. Another move that's hard for us...

Thanks for posting! This one looks really great! I am NOT a fan of her first HC workout. (It's the only one I have so I can't say anything about her other workouts) I think she uses equipment in a very unsafe way. (Balancing that body bar on the step for instance). I always modify that...

I think that smaller more atheltic figures ARE the desired look, but as you said, to each their own! Not only are smaller boobs aesthetically pleasing (to me), I also think they are youthful. Good luck with your surgery buneknek! I hope everything goes smoothly and you recovery quickly!

I do take calcium. My bone scan showed mild osteopenia, so I take 1200 MG daily. I take CitraCal slow release which also has 1000 IU of Vitamin D3. With the slow release I can take two pills every morning and forget about it. I think many of the studies that show the risk of heart disease...

I'm curious... do you have links to any of these cancer preventative clinical trials? TIA!
