Totally understand how you feel, it's an adjustment. Don't let it get to you for long. My 30's have been my best years yet. You really stop caring so much what other people think in your 30's. Start to really take stock on your dreams and aspirations. I will turn 40 in February and I'm so...

Spinervals--there are a ton of different and very challenging workouts! http://www.spinervals.com

No, I know there is no easy answer :confused: X-wife is not really an issue, she's in another state. My husband doesn't see the problem much of the time= the problem.

I just started and love it!! I've done 4 classes now. I just did a review of it on my blog: http://maintainmyweight.blogspot.com/2010/11/my-bikram-hot-yoga-experience.html Expect to be hot, really sweaty (dripping!!), maybe dizzy and light-headed, also maybe a little nauseated is not unusual...

No experience/advice, just sympathy--OUCH. I hope it gets better soon!

Frustrated and emotionally exhausted. :( I know I could be doing better. Any tips, suggestions, books, anything on ways to communicate with step-kids in regards to talking back, not listening, attitude, etc. He's 12 yrs old??

Welcome Jessica! Great that you have found Cathe and this forum. Enjoy :cool:

Thank you Cathletes for your amazing support and kindness--means a lot to me!:D

Shereta--CONGRATULATIONS!!! I'm so excited for you. I know exactly what you are feeling and there is NOTHING like it, right??:D:D:D Keep up the momentum!

How much do you have to spend? Do you have a road bike? If you can afford it then I'd go with a road bike/indoor trainer--that way you can ride outside in nice weather and then inside on the same bike in winter. Otherwise I'd go for the spin bike.

I was thinking about doing this for my next rotation. I like the idea of doing either Muscle Max or STS full body two days a week. Insanity is really hard on my knees though. I say go for it! :D

these are hilarious!

Cathe, thank you so much for your example, strength and determination. You are such an inspiration to me and--not sure if you saw my post or Dec. Shape magazine--but I was one of the success stories and I loved that they included you as one of my favorite workout partners! You rock!!! :cool:

I was worried about this too, but I've done two classes and haven't had one hot flash during class. It is very challenging but you feel amazing afterwards!! Love it!:D

Got mine too!!! Gonna try one tonight--maybe STS full body?:cool:

Fresh homemade orange/cranberry sauce, stuffing and mashed potatoes!!! All things I never eat during the rest of the year. :D

Hey Sheryl-- I know how you feel! :eek: I'm a 12hr night shifter as well (resp. therapist). I lost all my weight working this shift--totally doable! I did a blog post on this including my Top 10 tips to keep healthy while working the night shift. Here's the link...

Thank you Bev and all my fellow Cathletes!!:D

Jo, thank you so much--that was SO sweet of you!! It really means a lot to me. :o I would like to continue paying it forward, doing workshops and speaking in schools to girls about nutrition/exercise/confidence, etc. If I can help empower just one girl to believe in herself then it will be...

Wow, that is INTENSE training girl! I can't wait to see how it goes for you, keep us updated and rock it! :D
