I, too use a 6 inch step. It is challenging and fun. The pre-mixes are the best part of this workout in my opinion. Cheryl

RE: May 15 is the last day to buy orignal An update. My daughter just informed me that the new format will be only one story per issue. It is the publishers way of slowly introducing the new format before they make the complete changeover. Still makes me sad. Cheryl

Archie and the gang are becoming modernized as of May 15. The whole look is changing! The new faces have a Japanese "manga" animation look about them. Not necessarily a bad thing, just a sad thing in our house. My daughter is scouring all stores for the originals before the dreaded May 15...

My husband bikes three days a week to work. The trip one way is a little over 16 miles. 8 miles are on the greenbelt next to the river going through our city. He says he has the most beautiful commute he could hope for. His company provides a locker and showers for bike commutors. Wouldn't...

When I visit my family in Alberta, I always visit the Lululemon store. The clothes are incredible quality and as mentioned, very flattering. The downside is the price; be prepared to pay top dollar. They will last you a long time though. I am not a Walmart fan, but I do rationalize a...

I have a good friend who is a lactation specialist and she voices the same concern about soy formula. She absolutely speaks out agains soy forumla and she is nowhere near being consider holistic. There is something in milk that aids in the development of babies brains. Cheryl

She is almost waif looking in Ripped 1000. Jari and Laurie have gotten progressively thinner with every release. I hope Laurie does not get to thin. Jari's bony ribs in the last release 1000 just trouble me. She says she is very, in her words, vigilent about what she puts in her mouth. She...

I am so sorry that you are feeling such pain. Your body is being very frank with you; something is not working. I second Kathryn's suggestion on Tracie Long's 4 new functional fitness DVD's. They are deceptively effective and very joint friendly. You may want to look at Anna Benson's...

The only way to eat a truly "clean" waffle is with butter and pure maple syrup. Eating them plain is just a dirty thing to do! Cheryl

Carola, I think it was getting my body fat tested more than my weight that really got me thinking of joining. I was shocked! 32 lbs., that is awesome! Congrats. Cheryl

I just did what I said I would never do-----------I signed up for weight watchers. I could never justify paying someone to police what I put in my mouth, but sadly, I have come to the realization that I can't do this alone. The BMI is not my friend right now. I went to my first meeting and...

Yes, leave the egg white on! It gives a more authentic botox look. As for the hair above, I think it would work better with fuller lips. Injecttions take, what, 20 minutes? Cheryl

All you need to do to be ready for Friday is *weigh with one foot off the scale *oil up with baby oil *spray, spray, spray with Sally Hanson's tanner *invest in a water bra with double the push-up factor *break an egg and spread the white all over (who needs botox?) *buy yourself the best...

I really like Muscle Max but find I get more DOMS with Muscle Endurance. They are both so different and I think ME may be more challenging for me. I am not partial to Boot Camp but am grateful(due to the price of the DVD) I love ME so much. I think the combination of both would give you...

I just did pure strength today and tried to make a note of the weight amount. Cathe uses a 15 pound bar bell. The large weight plates are 10 pounds and the smaller 5 pounds. She mostly uses a 35 or 45 barbell. I notice for the T-bar rows she has 4 10 pound plates on one end. She uses 20...

Nettle tea is great for allergies and Dandelion root tea is great for the liver which aids in allergy relief. Living in the high desert is a killer for me, but I just got some recommended herbs at my Co-op. It is made by natural Factors: "Aller-7" formula. It is really working. Good luck. I...

Sally Hanson's spray on tan is the best. I srayed my legs yesterday, had a bath and my legs still have color. The Jergen's creme made me streaky. Cheryl

The iron in most foods is very hard or near impossible for the body to process. The iron in Floravital is like eating food and the body can use or eliminate it. You are right about too much iron in our diets. Did you know that men how give blood have a 30% LESS chance of heart attact than men...

Along with exercise and a diet as free from chemicals and perservatives, dry brushing and jumping on a mini trampoline may help. Both help activate the lymphatic system which aids in flushing the body of toxins. Cellulite is also, unfortuately, genetic and hormonal. Personally, I try to do...

I was looking at the ingredients in my daughters' "Foradix by Floravital Iron + Herbs", and noticed that it had 7.5 mcg of B12 (125% RDA). That amount sounds like a number that you may be comfortable with. It is an iron product but is all from natural sources. One dose is 10 mg or iron (56%...
