    Home-made Dumbbell Rack

    Oops--I meant to get a supply and direction list from him tonight before he went to work. I started working out and forgot. Hopefully when I see him tomorrow I'll remember and let you all know. I really love it, but now he needs to figure out what to do with my barbell!

    dvd suggestions for yoga

    I have been doing Yoga X for 8 weeks now and can do basically all of it, but getting kind of bored. Any suggestions for other dvds? I'm not so much into the difficult poses, but like the strength part. I would prefer about an hour, but even the 90 minutes of Yoga X hasn't really bothered me...

    What's for breakfast protein besides EGGS?

    I like Greek style yogurt with fresh fruit, or Kashi GoLean cereal.

    Update - I have Hashimoto's Disease...

    I have Hashimoto's also. Diagnosed about 10 years ago and taking Synthroid since. I didn't really have any problems with the meds, but it does sound like your's is pretty severe. I've never been referred to an endocrinologist. Fortunately you didn't really have any symptoms in the first...

    I don't have the numbers, but for me it's any of the workouts on the Terminator DVD.

    washing machine advice

    Our Frigidaire front loading washer lasted less than 5 years. It was still under warranty for the parts, but only if we paid for THEIR labor, which would've cost more than the parts anyways. When my husband took it apart, we found that basically all of the interior parts were crumbling! The...

    Bowflex Treadclimber Does anyone have one?

    I've had one for about 3 years now. I use at least 2x a week, usually more to supplement my workouts. I love it, but I do know some who don't care for it. It does only go up to 4 mph, but you can adjust the tension/intensity from 1-12. I wear a HRM on it, and when I'm using it as a climber...

    Restaraunt food is not my friend.

    I've thought about writing a book. I think "The Cheesecake Factory Diet" would be a best seller!

    Restaraunt food is not my friend.

    I don't know why, but I usually LOSE weight when I eat at the Cheesecake Factory. We usually share appetizers, or an entree with my husband, but I ALWAYS have cheesecake, and the scale likes it--makes me pretty happy too!

    Has anyone tried. . .

    Mine's only a snuggler in the winter time. Then she likes to be held WITH a blanket because she's cold. During warm weather, she stays away. :)

    Has anyone tried. . .

    The reviews I've read all sound really good. I just wanted to ask people that I "know"--here. I think I will try it. I was mostly afraid that the massaging action might scare my Annie, but I haven't read about any problems with that. BTW--Annie's a beagle, too!

    Has anyone tried. . .

    the Hydrosurge Rapidbath for their dog? I saw it at Wal-mart, and really want it, but before I shell out $40 for it I wanted to check out some reviews. Anyone?

    Cap and Trade

    Baylian-- I had contacted my Representative before their vote, and had every intention of contacting Senators, as I have also been following this issue. I don't post very often, but wanted to say THANKS :) for posting the link. It saved time for me, and I hope others use it as well!

    Joint pain?

    I also agree that you should see your doctor. I would suggest keeping a journal of every ache/pain or unusual symptom of any kind. I have lupus, and joint pain is the #1 symptom reported with the disease. But for any autoimmune disorder it can take a long time to get a diagnosis. Mine came...

    I'm thinking of Chalean Extreme - opinions?

    If you go to the Video Exchange on their site, you can read posts from other people of workouts they are looking for and what they want to trade. You can also post lists for yourself. It's a great way to try new videos while getting rid of ones you don't really want or use.

    I'm thinking of Chalean Extreme - opinions?

    I just finished CLX. I liked it, but I'm glad to be back to Cathe (and I don't have STS). I didn't have any huge significant results with it. I am stronger and can do a few more push-ups, but didn't lose any weight or inches. I doubt I'll ever do the full rotation again. I may use some of...
