    Chicago Road Trip App

    I'll be on the look out for you, Mona. I have an old skool dumb phone, but I have an iTouch. I'm assuming I can wi-fi at this hotel. If not, I'll look lost in the lobby, too. :p

    Time change... is it just me?

    I am, too. I have been nodding off in the day and struggling to stay awake. I am muddling through my workouts this week, too. My son is having issues as well. Hopefully, we'll all feel better by the weekend. :)

    Low impact Sub for Cario Core Circuit

    Hello- This is just my opinion, but I think Afterburn is a good substitute. It almost approaches the level of intensity of CCC (Especially when you're going all-out with it!), but without the impact. It is also around the same time in length. (I think AB is maybe 5 minutes longer than CCC)...

    Bringing a non-participant along

    Laura- Have fun! My HS band did that, too! It was so much fun. I played snare drum in the drumline. I would some Disney chats in between workouts, Mona and Cab (Sorry, I don't know your first name!). I love the avocado margarita from La Cava del Tequila in Mexico. I think I will try...

    Shopping for Cathe Gear During the RT?

    That's a great idea. Is there anyway this app can be compatible with the 2nd gen iTouch?

    Whey Protein and the Paleo diet

    Whaa? I still can't wrap my head around the concept that legumes are bad for you. (By legumes, I mean black bean, kidney beans, navy beans, garbonzos, lentils.) I don't understand how entire cultures/religions of people for centuries have depended upon legumes as a primary source of protein and...

    Frustration with weight gain

    Hi Rhonda- These are things that worked for me, so YMMV. :) Are you eating all of your weekly points and APS? I have found when I am weight loss mode, I have to scale back on eating either weekly points or APs. Conversely, if you are not, try eating them. I am always playing around with my...

    100 Most Influential Person in Fitness

    I've not heard of many of these people. There seems to be a lot of motivational speakers and CEO-types on this list for some reason. I am guessing this is one of those sites where anyone can write what they want, like e-how or livestrong. I would take this list with a grain of salt. Call me a...

    Sheer pantyhose or bare legs?

    Tangentially related, this summer, I had a few job interviews. I was wondering if I should wear pantyhose or not. I know in certain circles, pantyhose are starting to comeback because of Kate Middleton. Anyway, I was doing research about the pantyhose and many of the commenters at the ends of...

    STS first time!

    Hello- I completed disc 18 and I did Bodystrikes 1 today. Carolyn-I hear you about your son. My son attracts people who think it's fun to tell him lies about things. My son is a very gentle and very cheerful child. He's also very naive, because of the Asperger's Syndrome. Just before...

    Cathe on a budget

    The Turbo Tower at Walmart is currently $97 + taxes, not $80. I wish I had ordered before Christmas when it was $80. I didn't want a depressing "Blue Monday", so I didn't buy it. It's hard to be responsible sometimes. Such is life. :mad:

    Bringing a non-participant along

    Mona- I am so jealous! We are going in August, hopefully staying at the Beach Club Villas. I love walking to Epcot. :) We ate at the Rose and Crown a couple of years ago for lunch. I really like the cheese plate. I don't know if you know about All Ears.net. It is a great resource for...

    Bringing a non-participant along

    My husband and son are coming, too. It's a resort in a resort town, so there is loads to do. If this was taking place in, say, the Days Inn in Rockford or something, they wouldn't be coming along. My husband is not from America, so I think he is excited about seeing some where, "new." He...

    STS first time!

    Quick check in: Yesterday: Disc 13 and Step Moves Today: Crazy soreness and 50 minutes of Tonique Sculpt Dynamics. Not sure how I feel about this one... I need to shower. BBL Cheers. Jen

    STS first time!

    I am going to start Meso 2 here in an hour or so--I haven't had breakfast yet. I'm just a bit worried since I don't have a bench or a turbo tower for my barbell for chest presses. My husband is working from home, so I might ask him to spot me for today.

    What is your diet lifesyle?

    I think that's the beauty of WW. You can make it work for you and your lifestyle. I don't have a sweet tooth, but I have a "cheese tooth", so I work that in. As long as I am honest about tracking and portion sizes, I am successful. :)

    My Life Changes Tomorrow.

    Good luck, JT! IMO, it's HR/hiring managers who need the training when looking at seasoned professionals, not the other way around. ;)

    What is your diet lifesyle?

    I do Weight Watchers, too. I think a lot of people think it's about eating Smart Ones and processed food, but you can make it whatever you want. I am a vegetarian and I get most of my protein from legumes. I also get most of my carbs from veggies. I love tracking my food and activity using...
