    Hate starting over - Whine!

    I can totally relate. When I had my thyroid removed last year I could barely walk to take a shower, let alone do a Cathe workout. I was sick for months and felt like a weakling after all was said and done. I didn't think I'd be able to get any fitness back...but I started slowly and did my first...

    nutrion?

    Hmm...I think it also depends on what kind of learner you are (self study or need a class for motivation?) and the time you are able to commit to it. There's always the library. Community college classes are a great idea, which you can do in person or online For some really good basic...

    Night Shift workers -- need advice!

    Hi Sheryl, You'll probably have to try working out before and after work and see how you feel. I also work that shift and although I've had good intentions of trying to workout when I get home, it never happens. I'm always exhausted and I have a bit of a commute--when I get home I'm...

    Swimmers/Swim Caps

    I like the Speedo silicone caps, cover well and don't pull my hair when I take them off. I dislike any latex caps--they smell, pull my hair, etc.

    Just read about the most heartbreakin story

    I go to work everyday dealing with this (I work at a children's hosptial). It is disgusting and simply unimaginable what some of these kids go through. Some days the only way to get through is to know they are in a better place and not suffering anymore. :(

    Anyone tried homeopathic hcg diet?

    Christie, I know these types of diets are tempting because the weight will come off fast, but it's just another hype diet. The weight will always come back on unless the reasons for the weight gain are addressed, challenged and changed. The more depriving a diet, the quicker the weight loss...

    Rude or not?

    You are so right, very well said. I just don't feel like I fit in. They are so nice, but very controlling and my DH doesn't see it because he's used to it. When 90% of the conversations are in a different language that doesn't get translated, it's very frustrating. I won't be going on further...
