    Advice on cold weather running gear needed

    The Runners World site used to have a really helpful "what to wear" guide - you could enter running conditions and it would give you suggestions. It's down right now though. For weather 40is or below I have a pair of thermal running tights by Brooks I love. I also have a thermal running top...

    What kind of doctor should I see??

    Thanks for the input! After several phone calls last week I'm scheduled to see an ortho. doctor next week. I have a history with the practice (shoulder, hip, foot). Talked to my chiropractor and he recommended either seeing my regular doctor to start or going to this place since I've been...

    What kind of doctor should I see??

    I'm finally breaking down and going to see a doctor about a problem that's been going on for months (and months and months). Lower back pain (I have scoliosis) and also pain/stiffness in my left hip. It doesn't feel like sciatica. I've had bursitis in this hip before and I just don't know if...

    What ab workout DVD do you recomend?

    Look at horizontalconditioning.com There are probably others here who could give you more direction on what to get. Since I've been doing Cathe for years I skipped the intro DVDs and just got 2 of the 4 volumes - volumes 2 and 3. If you do a search there are clips on Youtube. Jen

    Another recommendation for HC! I started about 2 months ago and love it. I pulled out Core Max last week just for some variety and after doing HC it wasn't hard at all!!

    Ahhhhhh ... the booger wall!! My 12 year daughter still has one. Not because she's wiping them on the wall anymore, but getting them off was taking off too much paint! At this point we're just waiting to repaint the room! You are not alone ...

    Any other moms dress up for Halloween?

    Well, one of my friends dressed up with me. But unlike me, she just dressed for trick-or-treating. I actually did some errands dressed up! Did get some funny smiles :) Hope everyone had fun!

    Any other moms dress up for Halloween?

    I've done this for several years and a lot of my friends look at me like I"m crazy! But now my kids get such a kick out of it I think it will make for fun memories. Last couple years I've done the zombie thing (was dressed when they got home from school last year and they kind of freaked), but...

    Mom goes on strike!

    I've done that in the past! I've gone on food prep strike when I get sick of all the time it takes to plan, shop, cook and everyone complains. So I will simply stop preparing any food for up to a week :) Also done it with rules. When I get too much backtalk about bed, homework etc. I've...
