    Should I get a trainer or keep doing Cathe?

    I think focus on eating. I did WW (with extra "points") while nursing and was surprised at how I really needed to work on my portion control. When you sit down to eat, half of your plate should be fruits & veggies. If you are still hungry after a single portion of meat/complex carb (like...

    Please send good vibes, prayer...whatever you got :(

    I am sorry to hear that! I will pray for him. He was 30 weeks? My SIL had a baby at 27 weeks, and today the baby is a thriving almost 2 year old. I pray that Ethan comes through as well! Jen

    what do i need to do... to finally do even ONE unassisted pull up?

    My gym has those assisted pull up machines, they really help, at least you can measure your progress a little. I can't really imagine doing a pull up without using that machine to subtract poundage. I actually haven't been on that machine in a while since I mostly workout at home....seems...

    Tom Cruise on Oprah

    I don't know why I remember this (probably the first time I realized that something like this could be drummed up for publicity) but about 5 years ago there was a remake of the Elizabeth Taylor/Richard Burton "Cleopatra" (where THEY had been all hot and heavy in real life, apparently) and then...

    So, what's wrong with the egg yolk?

    Bodybuilders are probably consuming 5 or 6 eggs at a pop to get their protein in. I would think 5 or 6 yolks would be a bit too much fat for what they, or anybody, are looking for. I would think they should at least leave one egg yolk in. Whites are so tasteless!

    The Amazing Race!!

    I am suspicious of the plane being returned to the gate, too! I suspect it was the producer's intervention to keep the game interesting. U and J and given up begging the gate agent, she shuts them down, then there is a break, then all of a sudden the plane is coming back. Still, an awesome...

    Trying to eat more to increase muscle

    I do allow cheat days, usually on the weekends, with the mass-increase phase I am in, but within reason...usually it is not remembering to eat enough protein 5x a day. Prior to this I was doing fat loss only and was very strict with my eating, although I let go a little bit on the weekend...

    Are regular pushups bad for your uterus?

    What blows me away is that she said a TRAINER said this. Truly scary!

    Trying to eat more to increase muscle

    I have been doing this and find if I lift hard and eat 5 small meals per day, I am able to increase my weights, more so than when I eat the old way, where I had plateaud in that area. I eat about 20 g of protein per meal. The carbs I make sure are clean but I have not been counting...

    Cathe are total body workouts not effective?

    Maybe re-post the question rather than bumping it up? Just a thought.

    Babysitting Rates?

    My 13 yo neighbor just cheerfully informed me that she charges $9 an hour for babysitting! As soon as I got over my heart attack, I just had to ask....is this reasonable? I have 3 kids, granted...but they will be in bed an hour after she arrives! AND SHE IS 13! AND IT IS TAX FREE! AND SHE...

    Moms - I need your advice

    RIGHT before we start playing I say, "You aren't going to be a sore loser if I win, are you? Because if you are, then I don't want to play..." Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Jen

    ? for those of you who do weight watchers.....

    Seems like when this question was asked a while ago when I was doing WW, it was 4 or 5 points for a cardio workout, and 3 or 4 pts for a weight workout. Hope this helps Jen

    Bringing up Boys--Dr. James Dobson

    I really like it. I loaned it to a friend with 2 boys and she read it, returned it and said she was going to buy it because it is the type of book she would need to keep to make reference to from time to time. You could get it out of the library and then buy it if you like it. Jen

    "Taking a break" in a relationship - Help!!!

    RE: It is hard to remember...it was a general sort of attitude that he had over several months, and we did see each other and date during that time...then we both went back to our families for a holiday, and didn't see each other for a few weeks, during which it all came to a head, a few things...
