    Protein Pancakes with Oatmeal

    Umm...WOW is all I can say. I made these today for breakfast and they were amazing! My husband turned his nose up at the idea of them, but I might have to make him at least give them a try next time. Thanks for the recipe, this is going into heavy breakfast rotation at my house!

    Veggie Prep questions...

    Sounds yummy! Maybe you could try skewering them and putting them on an outdoor grill? I love that Extra Spicy Mrs. Dash, but you might also try the garlic one, or pretty much any of the others! Adding a bit of Liquid Smoke to the oil before brushing on would help to give it a more smoky flavor...

    SNL - Body Fuzion

    I'm sure this has been posted before, but I just saw it again and wanted to share in case any of you haven't seen it. Totally cracks me up. http://youtube.com/watch?v=v9TzJAbubDM

    Interesting article on bottled water

    Can you run the SIGG bottles through the dishwasher? If so, I might have to get one!

    Heart Rate Monitors?

    Yeah, I keep hearing about those Ryka shoes. Where can I find them? Does anyone know if Nordstrom might carry them? I have ridiculous size 11 feet, so finding shoes is kind of tough. Right now I've been wearing Nike cross-trainers, but I wear through shoes in 6 months or so with the amount of...

    Recipes...

    One of my favorites, and I think it's a Weight Watchers recipe, is for "Big Breakfast Cookies". I make these probably once a month, and my husband and I both love them. Super easy to make, and they freeze just great (just nuke for 30 seconds before serving)! 1 1/4 C. oatmeal 1/4 C. raisins...

    Heart Rate Monitors?

    I don't yet have a heart rate monitor, and it seems like a majority of the Cathe-ites here use them regularly. How necessary are they? Is using the "perceived exertion scale" good enough? What are some good (and preferably inexpensive - my Cathe purchases have my wallet screaming!) monitors that...

    Protein Pancakes with Oatmeal

    Sweet, I'm totally making these later this week. I'll bet they'd be good with some mashed banana and walnuts as well, instead of the blueberries!

    Protein Pancakes with Oatmeal

    Yum, these sound good. Do you think I could substitue Egg Beaters for the egg whites, or would that not work? I don't usually keep regular eggs around any more, because then I'm tempted to eat them all the time. :9

    Where do you find Designer Whey? Sounds yummy!

    Where can I find those puzzle mats?

    I just measured mine and they're 1/2" thick. Got them from Target for about $15 for a four-pack.

    Protein Powder?

    Thanks for the replies. On a side note, isn't Fiber One the best thing EVER? My favorite thing to do with it is crush it up, cut up some thick onion slices, and then dip them in Egg Beaters and the Fiber One, then bake them. Delicious and super nutritious onion rings!

    81 year old figure skater

    Thanks for that link. So inspirational! Makes me want to dust off my figure skates and find a rink.

    Where can I find those puzzle mats?

    Yep, I got mine at Target as well. Just a hint though, if you're planning on using more than a 4X4 section (mine is 8X8) - you may want to duct tape together the grids on the underside, otherwise they have a tendency to pull apart. I also taped some of that non-skid rubber backing to the back so...

    Protein Powder?

    Do any of you use protein powder on a regular basis to help get in enough protein and to build muscle? I've got a big ol' bag of "Pro-Rated" chocolate powder that I got at Costco 6 months ago or so, and I just kind of re-discovered it. A scoop is kind of high in calories (138), but also has 27...

    KPC / Legs & Glutes DVD

    I'm already glad I added it to my order. And actually, I'm hoping that the more I try kickboxing, the better at it I'll get and hopefully I'll enjoy it more.

    How long does it take to receive DVD orders?

    Whoa! I can only hope mine get here that quickly. I was hoping within 1-2 weeks.

    How long does it take to receive DVD orders?

    I just placed a ridiculously large DVD order today (eight DVDs with sixteen workouts!) and I can't wait to get going with them. How long do orders typically take to receive if you use regular UPS ground? I'm hoping I'll get them before the beginning of August so that I can try out my first...

    KPC / Legs & Glutes DVD

    Haha, that's so true. My husband's going to have a fit when I tell him how much all of this cost, but at least I think this is my last purchase. After this I've got almost all of them from 2001 until now (already pre-ordered my 4-day split like a good girl!). Luckily I've got some leeway because...

    I'm not sure what DVD to get for lower body sculpting

    Ooh, you're not the only one. Firewalkers are my favorite! In a way they're a nice break from the rest of the work, even though they totally fry my outer thighs/hips.
