RE: Alison.... Hi :-) 1.) Yes the first week especially your body will go thru withdrawls very much like you would have if you stopped drinking caffeine or something else addictive. You could get headaches, body aches, irritiablity, fatigue etc. It's not easy I know but stick with it and this...

RE: not true Hi Denice, Just a few ideas that may help you. One of the ways I have found most useful to get ideas for different rotations and incorporating different types of excercise is to read the Weekly Checkin Posts under the Open Discussion Forum. Everyone posts their weekly workouts and...

Hi Diane, Sorry to hear you had to have the surgery but Im glad it went well! Yes I have the exact same problem with limited movement in that wrist. It's been four weeks for me this week. It is getting better and better each week but still slower progess then I hoped for. But today I did...

Hello, I have been eating a sugar free diet since the beginning of May with only 2-3 planned indulgances. The disclaimer first :P I am not a nutritionist and as we pretty much all agree what works for one person doesn't always work for another. With that said let me give you some tips that have...

RE: Hi Trish!! Wow Aimee!! That is so awesome!! I think it's so great that you are following your dreams like that. I look foward to reading your updates on how you are doing as you get closer to the big day. I really hope you enjoy every minute of the journey :-) Debbie: Congratulations on...

I had promised Diane (Targo) to give her an update on my recovery from my surgery to my wrist removing a ganglion cyst. So I thought I would post for you. It's been 3 1/2 weeks and things are progressing nicely. I got my brace off after 9 days. For the first 9 days I couldn't do much of...

RE: Hi Teresa! Cyndie, I totally agree this is too much for you to do alone. Let us help you with the costs. I'm sure the costs to print all those with printer ink and paper will also be costly. Let's figure out a way to send you some money to help with this. You are really so kind to offer to...

RE: In like a crab... I just wanted to add one more Birthday wish for you Cathe. I don't think you can be told too many times how wonderful you are! :-) Your videos and this forum have changed my life for the better in soooo many ways!! I was so blessed to have found you. I hope this coming...

Hi everyone.. I made it through :-jumpy Thanks sooo much for all your thoughts and wishes :-) Let me give you a quick update and try to answer a few questions. I probably would have been back sooner had it not been for me getting the stomach flu two days after I had the surgery :-tired As of...

Thank you so much Erica, Kathy and Cruncholi! Your posts are so helpful to me and exactly what I was looking for. I really appreciate the time you took to respond. Cruncholi: Thank you so much for sharing your story with me. I really had no idea what to expect. My surgery is actually...

This question is for Cathe or anyone else out there who can help me out with some suggestions. I am having surgery to remove a ganglion cyst from my wrist and I have some questions. I'm kinda down about the fact that I won't be able to lift weights for 6-8 weeks:-( but Im trying to look on the...

Hi Fitmommy, I agree with Ann and her advice and the brands she mentioned. I am working with a clinical nutritionist right now and she has suggested I take Natrol My Favorite Multiple (original formula tablets). She has had very good experience with them and I have found them to be very good...

Debbie, Your granddaughter is absolutely beautiful!! :-) You must be treasuring every moment with her. Im so happy for you, what a wonderful blessing. The sneakers are just too cute! :D Alison

RE: Makes my feat of doing 41 at first I agree Honeybunch you are such an inspiration to me!! That is just incredible :-) Alison

I ordered all of them on DVD also! I did it a month after starting to workout again after a 7 month period I couldn't. I decided it would be incentive for me :-) It worked I can't wait for them!! :-jumpy Alison

I definitely am one of those people who think that hi/lo is more confusing then step. With step once I get the moves down I tend to do fine with it...with hi/lo I feel like Im tripping all over myself! Hey Margaret here is one other idea. If you want a very tough workout in terms of intensity...

Hi Margaret, I am also not the most coordinated person and I've found that Mega Step Blast and Step Heat are some of the easiest to learn after the Wedding Video. I just wanted to encourage you not to give up. It seemed for a while every time I tried a new video I would get so frustrated x(...

Thanks so much to all of you! Your responses were really helpful for me. I never cease to be amazed at the knowledge and kindness of the people on these boards :-) Alison

Hi Kerri, I don't have an answer but I can't wait to hear if you get any good suggestions. I also have a recumbant bike and the exact same thing happens to me :-wow I also have tried loosening my shoes and took the foot straps off but I still get that same feeling. It is better with the foot...

I was just wondering if anyone out there has used Leaner Legs and the Upper Body Split from CTX DVD as a total body workout all at once? If anyone has could you tell me how that compared to MIS. I can't use my MIS tape right now but can use my DVDs and I wanted to do a total body strength...
