    Well, the new dog has been a disaster.

    Oh how sad. I'm not an expert with multiple dogs in the house (I have cats) but could you be giving up too quickly? Maybe they need a weekend together where you could be there too and where Max gets lots of attention so he knows he's not being replaced. When I introduced my second cat to the...

    Need opinions, recommendations from other Cathe users

    RE: Need opinions, recommendations from other Cathe use... Hi Stacy, I hear your concern about whether or not you are an advanced exerciser and whether you are ready for Cathe. I'd say YES! based on your exercise history. You also have enough experience now to modify moves that seem too...

    It seems I may have struck a nerve when I said Cathe looks shorter..

    ha ha ha ... I had to laugh also. Thanks for the memory. My mother was 5'2" with eyes of blue and she'd sing that song too. She'd also do a little flapper dance at the same time. Always cracked us up. I think the song must have been popular when she was a young gal in the 1920's/30's. Deb

    Diet and Exercise software

    Hi Liz, thanks for sharing. I've looked at this software along with others in the past (been thinking about creating my own database on MSAccess, but this would be easier). A couple of questions for you: 1) Do you know what method is utilized to determine BMR and calories burned from...

    hot flashes and weight loss

    How interesting. I've been battling hot flashes for about a year (still perimenopausal) and have experienced weight gain. I've taken my temperature during a hot flash a few times thinking it had to be through the roof -- paradoxically it was low. Go figure. It's such an individualized...

    My tax dollars at work

    In my neighborhood, the police often stage a police car on the side of the road with a "dummy" sitting in the front seat pointing a radar gun. The car will sit there (on a road on which many people tend to speed) for hours. You can tell it's a dummy when you stop at the cross-stop. Another...

    pap smear

    I'm not sure the issue is which is better to see. It's a simple straight forward test that a nurse practioner or physician's assitant can do readily -- it's the lab they use that's does the reading. I think the issue to look at is which do you feel more comfortable doing the procedure. I use...

    One milestone reached!

    Congratulations on the milestone! Do you use a racewalking technique? If you don't mind me asking, how tall are you and do you have longish legs? Just wondering if a certain technique or physical traits help. I once paced myself by following a woman walking on campus at lunchhour who was...

    bad knees

    I switched to low/lower impact for just about everything and wear those athletic knee brace-thing-a-bob-ers for cardio workouts. Getting GreatMats puzzle mats helped tremendously on my concrete basement floor. I've also found that doing lunges and squats has really helped strengthen the...

    Is there a certain word you can't pronounce?

    I have trouble with "drawer" and "sorrow". My sister had to use Rolls Royce in a high school speech and would put a mental "jelly" before it and it'd come out fine. hee hee. Deb

    sugar content my yogurt too high?

    Considering that a cup of skim milk has about 11 grams of sugar (lactose) and that yogurt is a slightly more concentrated form of milk (so it's natural concentration may be a little bit higher), I'd say that 33 grams is almost 3X the amount naturally occuring -- far from "clean". I agree that...
