    I feel so out of shape...

    I got my new dvds just in time for my workout today. I decided to do the Afterburn express mix (1-10) to start out. Now, I've been on vacation for the last 10 days, so I'm a little off due to that, but boy this workout made me feel sooooo out of of shape! :confused:The cardio factor was way...

    Long Vent Alert: Setting the record straight

    As someone else noted: why should it matter???? Just because someone is a Christian does not mean that person is a just or moral person. I know someone who is a deacon in his church, but yet, he's very racist towards black people, and calls them derogatory names. I can't stand it. And let's...

    I'll have to add that to my ever-expanding list!

    Aerobox DVD's

    I have been wondering about this set. I tried Aerobox Max the other day, and the back of my arms have been talking to me ever since. I am renting them from Kinetic Flix to see if I think I will like them enough to buy. Anyone out there have any reviews?

    need internet/cable/satellite suggestions

    I switched from Cox Cable to Direct TV back in May. DTV was having a very good deal for a two year period. I was paying almost $80 a month for just cable with Cox (basic extended, no movie channels), and my bill is around $50 with DTV, and that is HD in both rooms and a whole-house dvr, which...

    Low Impact Series Questions

    Thanks, Nancy....I knew I wasn't alone out there. I don't know what the problem is, as I tested them with various settings on multiple tvs and DVD players. I asked SNM about it at the time, and they even went out and got a DVD player like mine to test it! I really think something happened when...

    Low Impact Series Questions

    I have been wondering about how these dvds will be filmed??? The last series had bad video quality. I'm sorry, but I have tried them on 3 different HD tvs, two different HD DVD players, and two different computers. The image quality is bad, bad, bad. Not clear at all...fuzzy and somewhat...

    Anybody strain a tendon in the knee?

    I have found that doing lunges with heavy weight is a no-no for me, especially during a strength training program like STS. The tendons that hook to the front of my kneecaps were killing me after I finished STS. I tend to do lunges, especially forward lunges, with little to no weight now...

    Casey Anthony-Your Thoughts

    Circumstantial cases are hard to prove. I don't think they actually had anything that could 100% link Casey to her daughter's death; that's why the jury could not convict her. Her behavior is what screams GUILTY to me. If she was truly innocent, she would have been screaming for someone to...

    Direct TV

    I had Cox cable, and switched to DTV in May. Cox was getting outrageous in the pricing, and they really have no competition here. DTV had a good deal for 2 years, which a whole house DVR, free HD, and more channels. I really don't care about the DVR, but it was part of the deal. I will keep...

    Help with Kitty Fur Loss

    One of my cats has this same exact thing. Her vet, a cat specialist, says that this pattern of hair loss is due to allergies..usually to fleas. However, it can also be due to inhalation allergies (like we get : hay fever, etc). She said when the hair loss is around the neck and head or ears...

    Calorie burn disparity

    I have a Polar FT60. I find that I always burn more on cardio than the WM, and less on weights. I think the numbers in the WM cannot fit every single person or situation; each person's fitness level and capabilities are just too different. The one think I like on my Polar is that it has My...

    pets

    My cat, Abby, likes to get right up in the middle of things while I'm working out. If I'm on the floor, she likes to get beside me and play in my hair. My parrot, Watson, will actually move his head up and down in time with my arms....I caught him doing this one time when I was doing lateral...

    Baking bread

    This is a no-knead method, so I add vital wheat gluten to the flour mixture to help with gluten formation. I have contacted the authors of the book, and they are trying to help me out. They've given me a suggestion at to how to bake it, so I will try that tomorrow. We'll see what happens. I...

    Baking bread

    I live in southern LA, so it's always humid here. I've tried this on two different days.....I'm not sure what the problem is. I've contacted the authors of the book, and they are trying to help me figure it out. They think my dough might be too wet, so I may have to adjust the water content. I...

    Baking bread

    I might have to email him. It might just be that whole grains are not going to rise like white flour. I might have to invest in a good pizza stone or cloche.

    Baking bread

    I have recently started trying to bake bread. I am using the Healthy Bread in 5 Minutes a Day book. I am having issues getting the bread to have any oven spring when baking. This last batch of dough rose beautifully...this is so frustrating. I have been baking it in my Romertopf cooker, and I...

    Back From Italy

    As soon as I can get some time away from work , I plan to start editing some photos. I took over 1500, so it will be a lot of work. I've already worked on a few while I was there, but have yet to get them on my desktop. Maybe next week. Stay tuned.

    Back From Italy

    I'm sure we'll be back one day....we just barely scratched the surface of what there is to see, and we didn't even go to northern Italy. Driving on the Amalfi coast road was an adventure in itself. Next time, we'll take a ferry from Naples to the coast instead of driving! Naples was just...

    Back From Italy

    I just got back tonight from 2 weeks in Southern Italy. It was my first time to Europe, and was it a wild time!!! We started out in Naples, rented a car and drove down to a small village called Laurito (in the mountains). This is a small medieval village with a church that dates back to the...
