    A Christi Taylor question

    You absolutely MUST have every Christie Taylor ever made -- especially if the price is right! I do. They're like Cathe vids. No one can buy just one. Shari

    Should I just GIVE UP???

    My body shape changed completely after the birth of my son, who is now 16. All my life, I've had to have the waists taken in on my clothes. These days, I have a saggy seat whenever I buy pants that fit my waist. It's very frustrating, I know, and I was much happier (and more comfortable)...

    so tell me honestly about presale

    I pre-ordered the entire Hardcore series, but I just pre-ordered Butts and Gutts this time out. There are a few things I'm not interested in, but the Hardcores were mostly dead-on for me. I just traded the workouts I didn't want at VideoFitness. Kickboxing is so hard on my back that I avoid...

    Ever won/applied for a scholarship??

    I received several scholarships while I was in college. Check with your school financial aid department. Many should be available through that office. They are based on so many varying criteria, that you would almost certainly qualify for something! We even had scholarships around here for...

    What is your ideal vs. realistic weight?

    I'm tall and it takes 20-25 pounds to make a size difference in my clothes, so while I'd like to be 135, I'd be content and comfortable at 150-155. Shari

    bike riding

    Personally, I have just had to learn to accept my limitations in this area (something I tend not to do gracefully). I ride almost daily and have for five years. I can ride as far as I want now, and regularly ride twenty, thirty, forty miles. (I started out winded from riding six blocks to the...

    Update on microwave popcorn bowl

    Wal-Mart sells an Orville Redenbacher microwave popcorn popper that I have been using for years. It works great! Mine cost about twelve dollars. One thing I've learned, though, is that the popcorn seems to be crunchier if you salt it after you pop it. I have no idea why. Also, I spray mine...

    What Do Y'All Think of This Comment

    Well that's just silly. Of course diet and exercise will improve his health! What is that man thinking? As for the sister, maybe she means that the boy has no intention of changing his lifestyle, even after the surgery. There are many ways to "get around" the surgery and eventually gain...

    should you teach a boy to like boy things?

    I agree about encouraging his interests. This fascination with animals could lead to any of a number of wonderful, fulfilling careers someday. And there are so many ways available to fuel his interests these days. I teach fifth grade, and I was surprised to find that my students are...

    I have ants in my bathroom how can I get rid of them?

    We get them every time it rains. I use Terro. Put a dot of it on a piece of cardboard and the ants line up around it like pigs at a trough. The next day, no more ants. Good stuff. Shari

    My 17 yo son did Gym Style Back, Shoulders, and Biceps

    RE: My 17 yo son did Gym Style Back, Shoulders, and Bic... My son is a l5-year-old, 6'5", 305 pound defensive lineman on his high school football team. He's been a starter since he was a freshman, and his coach thinks he's the best in the league. (Yes, I'm bragging, of course, as any good...

    Moms with daughters....kind of personal...and long!

    Ten is not too young to talk to your daughters about this! I teach fifth grade, and we have several little girls every year who are already having TTOM. Some of my poor babies start during the school day, don't know what's happening, and are embarrassed and terrified! We even had one little...

    Experience with Wellbutrin/Bupropion?

    I've been on Wellbutrin for over a year. I've had difficulty sleeping from the beginning and still do. I don't have trouble getting to sleep. I just have trouble staying asleep. I wake up most mornings about 3:00 or so really wound up tight! Seriously, I'm ready to take on the day...
