Hi Cathe, I was just wondering if you ever let yourself have a few days or even a week off from cardio & weight training. I've been working out for years & the longest I've gone w/o working out is 3 consecutive days. There are some days where I feel completely zapped of energy & I go, go...

Cathe, Have you ever heard of or tried You Bars? I just ordered some & looks like they are pretty healthy...you get to build your own bar, kinda cool. Amanda

Thanks Cathe, & everyone for your input! Amanda

Hi Cathe, I know yogurt is a healthy snack, & I'd like to start eating it. However all the brands I find contain artificial sweetners. Do you allow yourself to eat the low fat/fat free yogurt that contains the higher amounts of sugar, or do you eat the brands w/ artificial sweetners? I'd...

Hi Cathe, I'm going to be going to Mexico for my 5th year Ann. I'm already very fit & lean, but would like to tighten things up a bit more before my vacation. I was wondering what your diet is like before you start filming. Do you only allow for a certain # of starchy carbs p/day & when do...

I've never tried stevia. I don't think it's been approved by the FDA.

Hi Cathe, I used to use Splenda a lot. Now I'm not so sure about it or any artificial sweetner. What is your opinion about it? Do you use Splenda at all, or just use a little real sugar for a sweetner? Happy Holidays! Amanda

Cathe, I sincerely appreciate your response. Thank you so much! I love getting your input on diet questions. I wish you would come out w/ a book! Amanda

Hi Cathe, Is it true that to "lean out" you have to cut out starches, even if they're the good kind like brown rice, sweet potatoes, whole wheat bread? How much do you cut your starches/carbs when you're leaning out for your workout dvd's like kick max? Do you only eat them in the morning &...

Cathe, Do you know if the protein is "destroyed" when baking/cooking w/ whey or soy protein? I have a friend who makes her own protein muffins & I thought I heard that protein (powders) cannot w/stand high temperatures. I love her protein muffins but I don't want to keep eating them if I'm...

Hey there Cathe, Glad to see there's a recipe/nutrition forum. Can you post any of your recipes, Pleeeeease? Just any of your fav's would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! Amanda

Hi Cathe, I am curious to know if you eat starches w/ every meal (clean one ofcourse). I do you workouts & am very fit, but I get confused on eating starches. Do you avoid starchy carb's at night? Do you eat only a cetain # of starches per day? Any additional info. from you would be...

Hi Cathe, First of all I want to say, thank you for getting me in the best shape of my life! I was worried after the birth of my 21 month old daughter, I'd never get my 6 pack back, but I have thanks to you! In a response to a question a while back, you said that you did not count the #...

Here is the link to the video I saw. I'm still not sure what to think of not using milk in protein shakes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=efipdXI4Ypk

Cathe makes cookies? Yes, I want the recipe too, please. :9

Hi Cathe, I recently watched a video by Jennifer Nicole Lee (the fitness model), & she said to never mix protein shakes w/ milk because it forms a paste when it hits your intestines...is this even true? I love my soy milk/skim milk blended w/ my protein powder. Do you use water or milk...

Hi Cathe or anyone, I'm posting this question again (sorry) but I have a question about plyometric exercises...will things like jump squats, plyo plies, power lunges, etc. cause my legs to become bigger? I'm naturally muscular and would like to decrease the size/muscle in my legs. I'm...

Hi Cathe, I love all of your plyo. moves in your DVD's! However, I'm looking to downsize my legs...they are more muscular than I want them. Will plyo training help me get a more lean look, or make my legs bigger? Any suggestions on downsizing legs would be greatly appreciated...SUMMER IS...

Hi, I'm actually wanting to lose some muscle in my legs. Is STS still a good choice for me? Also, Cathe, how much cardio do you personally do w/ the STS program? I'm used to doing 5x p/week cardio & I'm afraid to cut back. I usually do the 4 day slit workouts & I'm not sure if I would...

Cathe, I found some low-carb tortillas I really like. They are high in fiber, low in fat, cals, & carbs. They're actually made by Mission. My question is...in the indgredients, it's not made from whole wheat flour, just wheat flour it says, so in your opinion, would they still be...
