    Question for SAHMs

    Only you can decide whether being a SAHM is right for you or not. A move, even to a new town in the same state is a big deal - so let yourself be nervous and recognize that. I was a SAHM until my youngest was 5 years old. I work in the financial services field and was very happy to not work...

    How Has Pilates Changed Your Shape?

    I agree with what Pippa has said. I have been taking Pilates Mat classes approx 3x a week for about 4 - 5 months now, and yes I have seen a change in my body. My core is strong and if I leaned out a drop more with clean eating my abs would be where I want them to be. For me most important...

    ankle....discomfort

    Thanks for responding. I have a feeling it is a tendon/ligament thing and that I will need to be very good in order for it to heal properly.:-( Guess I should have layed off when it happened. Hope the Dr. doesn't require to much time off.

    ankle....discomfort

    I was wondering if any of you have experienced this. I did something to my ankle awhile back - not sure what. I have no pain now except when trying to balance on the foot of the ankle that hurts. Seems like the weight shifting to the outside to maintain balance causes more discomfort than...

    intimidated by pikes!

    These are soooo hard!!!!! Once you get it - you feel great about your accomplishment. For me, I found that they are tough on upper body strength. I found that once I had gained some strength in my upper body, it made doing the pike easier. Hope this helps and good luck

    Is this your hair salon experience too?

    So glad I am not the only one. I have even taken to blow drying my own hair at the salon now - of course I only do this after I have known the stylist for awhile and then they know how messed up my hair is. Usually when I do the blow dry I can tell immediately if any touch-up is necessary like...

    OT - what to wear to a Broadway play

    I agree, but guess I'm a throwback to a different time and I'm only 42. When we go to see a play, I dress business casual, so that I feel as if I'm going somewhere special and not to a movie. I also have my kids dress nicely. For my daughter that's easy as she loves to wear dresses - she's 8...
