    Ok...I am addicted to sugar

    I'm the same way, and decided to kick my habit once and for all, cold turkey. I don't allow myself ANY sugar, not even one Hershey's Kiss, because I know that one will lead to 20. The funny thing is, the longer you go without it, the more you don't crave it! It's been over a month for me now...

    HEY BANSLUG!

    Hi Gayle! My only problem with PUB is I feel like I'm doing endless reps and my mind starts to wander...especially with the chest work! Maybe I'll alternate between the two, and see how it goes. I hadn't done CTX UBS, and yowza! My biceps especially are feeling it today! Another...

    HEY BANSLUG!

    Hi! Since I know you've had GREAT success with BFL, I need to ask your opinion. I'm trying to incorporate the BFL weight work into my routine but by using Cathe videos. I just don't have the mental stamina to do it on my own...I'm a little ADD, I suppose. Anyway, is the CTX Upper Body...

    RE: How many have waited til the last minute to order S... I ordered on Saturday because I was afraid I'd forget to do it before today. I've never weighed a Cathe purchase so much in my life, but I'm sure I won't be disappointed!

    NO sweets starting tomorrow...

    I have elminated all sweets/treats from my diet and have to say that if you don't let yourself have even a small taste, it is much easier to stick to! I am a sugar addict and was very out of control. For me it's all or nothing, and nothing is getting easier every day!

    Need support!

    <Enjoy your big day. I have been married 17 years and when I look back, my weight at the time of my marriage is not a significant memory or source of pride or happiness or otherwise. The people I loved who made it for my big day, being blessed with the love of my life - these are my memories. 12...

    Why don't folks have stretch marks??

    I've had three babies and not a stretch mark to be seen. I swear by Palmer's Cocoa Butter and would rub my belly like a Buddha with it after every shower. On the flip side, though, I've worked out religiously since I was in my early 20s and at 38 have cellulite on my butt and upper thighs...

    I hate being out of the loop and not preorder....BUT

    I haven't preordered yet and am still on the fence about whether I will, but is anyone else wondering what will happen if Cathe does end up doing an infomercial with these workouts? Will they end up being A LOT cheaper a year from now?

    Divorced ladies - Serious question about splitting up

    Donna - Just wanted to add my thoughts to everyone else's and tell you that I admire the courage that it takes to make this kind of decision. I definitely don't believe in people staying married for the sake of their children. Kids deserve parents that are happy, and if that can't be done...

    banslug/Gayle tell me about your routine

    RE: Encouragement and Check-in Gayle - Thanks for sharing your routine. Quick question...would you have thought before BFL that your legs would bulk easily? I have this (mis)conception that mine do and so I'm always afraid to go heavy-heavy, and just wondering if you had the same thinking...
