Hi there. I sent you a private message. We are in your corner! Julie Fit Over 40

Hi Mariah and rock on. I have been where you are and can attest to it. Please email me. And work your program - it will bring the miracles you so deserve. May I recommend to you and all here that you start a daily check in on the Checks Ins and Challenges forum? Maybe "Fit Gals Over...

I'm in Carolyn! Have not been strict on this but taking some cues to clean it up for me and family so will add a few: 1. Kale: saute with olive oil and garlic; also I throw it into my pasta with tuna recipe (oil, garlic, snall onion diced, one can diced tomatoes, one can tuna fish drained...

RE: Lower Abs pooching out from overwork? Some yoga follow up Hi Lisa. I am a big advocate of going to a real yoga studio - not the gyms where they offer classes - so you have the benefit of working with a high level instructor who can offer form pointers. You really get the most out of...

Hi Jennifer, here you go - winter schedule samples: M - rest day Tu - KPC a.m.; yoga class at lunch (gym near work has a 45 minute one) W - Maximum Intensity Strength Th - Turbo Jam (about 50 minutes) or 4 mile run on treadmill plus 30 minute Eion Finn routine from Power Yoga for...

Hey Erin. A bit about me: I am 43, had my daughters at age 37 and age 39, had some left over baby pooch, work out hard and hate HATE HATE! working my abs. Here is what worked for me: less direct ab work , more kickboxing workouts which work the abs indirectly and from different angles. Also...

Pamela I also see better results muscle definition wise when I cut back on the cardio. I do far less than you - 4x/week cardio somewhere between 30 - 60 per session. Usually about 40 minutes on average. A few points: 1. I would work in a lower body focused workout Wed/Thurs where you...

Pamela hi there. Would be willing to offer my 2 cents (as a runner, former marathoner and tri-athlete). A few questions: how much time do you have to devote to exercise? do you do two workouts per day ever? do you have any injuries? how much cardio do you want to fit in per week? also...

RE: Fitness Freak and Others - Feedback on My Debbie thanks so much. I am adding in the protein shake. I think that might be the key to this - I am not feeding the muscles enough for them to properly repair. You are such a great resource. Have a great day! Julie

Yo Baby or full fat plain Stonyfield which I mixed with pureed fruit. My girls loved it!

Hey there! First of all, you need to increase your calorie intake by at least 300 calories per day (that's a minimum) while pregnant so listen to that hunger - it is telling you do just that! When I was pregnant I added a bit of healthy fat to stave off hunger pangs and it worked (although...

Sandra just had to comment on new pix of Kate - now that is a girl who knows how to enjoy her chocolate! Adorable!!!! Julie

Hi Debbie and all other fitness smarties. Can I get some input? Looking to get more defined muscularity. I am pretty small all over but very fit (5 2" and 104 - hereditarily blessed but I work hard at it!). Been lifting quite heavy the past two weeks for a change (ususally more high rep/low...

I cannot believe i like Turbo Jam. I am anti "bunny aerobics" types. But I got it anyway since I love boxing and kick boxing. And gotta say, it will work your abs like crazy. No, it is not heavy duty high impact like Cathe. But it is a good workout. Would like to see more kicking in the...

Good choice Belinda! I actually did a full house renovation with environmentally safe products (insulations, paints, woods, etc.), use non toxic cleaners. Has been great to counteract my DH and DD's allergies. And I feel better about it, that's all. I use Earth Best, all different brands...

Hi Lora. Have you, or has anyone else here, heard of Adrienne Reed? Her yoga DVDs look very challenging. Thinking of ordering. All the best. Julie P.S. - Doing Eion yoga 40 minutes later, plus 20 minute Pilates. Drill Max last eve did me in - in a good way!

From a native may I suggest Two Boots pizza? They are in the Village as well as in Rockefeller Centre. Thin crust, awesome sauce. John's in the Village or Upper West Side are the only John's worth going to. Have fun!

Hey I'll chime in. It was right after September 11, and given that DH and I are both from and work in NYC, we were very very affected. Our first DD was 2 1/2 years old, and we had been trying for another baby, to no avail. Creating a new life for us took on even more importance. DH' business...
