I subscribed, but haven't received my first issue yet. I'm glad to hear such positive feedback, Reese. I'm always looking for a yummy, clean recipe :) Sarah

I need some group motivation and support. I'd love to join you:-) Sarah

I can always tell who has been doing >step for many years when they automatically tap down. You would definately recognize me in your class; one of those old-timer tap down gals ;-) You gave great advice in your post. Thank you for sharing. Sarah

I just put up the tree and decorated it last weekend. I am not one of those who decorates the day after Thanksgiving. I'll take everything down the day after New Year's. It's short and sweet for me. There will be Valentine's what-not in the grocery stores next week, no doubt. Sarah

Yes, there is definately hope for you. Listen, I have been doing Step since its inception in 1989. I don't have trouble learning new step routines, but HIS gave me fits. After more rewinds than I care to count and practicing on the step with no risers, I finally got it. Hang in there and...

I can so relate to your frustration, but doesn't it feel fabulous to finally master the steps?! I was very turned off by the 4DS Step workouts, at first. I have been doing Step since it started in 1989, but HIS had me swearing like a sailor. I spent many hours rewinding, until I finally...

Oh yea, misery loves company and I'm right there with you in your "Whine-fest!" I'm giving myself until the New Year, so that I can feed all those fat cells a bit longer ;-) I may have to check myself into the Betty Crocker Center for sugar addiction }( Sarah

I wish I could say that this event shocked me, but it didn't.

I wanted to like her book and was excited to receive it the other day from Amazon. But I have to tell you, I found it extremely redundant and boring. I should have made the trek to Border's first because if I had previewed it first, I never would have bought it. A waste of $$$, IMO. Sarah

Are you going to be able to leave the mats in place, or do you need to put them away after exercise? I have the 5/8" foam puzzle mats from greatmats. I see that they have wood-surfaced foam mats. They didn't have those when I made my purchase, 4 years ago. If I could leave my mats in place...

I had the "generic" puzzle mats that I purchased at Costco. They were okay, but after about a year, they began to disintegrate, leaving blue gunk on my carpet. I also have mats from greatmats.com. The greatmats are far superior to the gereric mats in construction. I like the color choices you...

I agree that you should rest and recouperate. If you "push" your way through an illness and continue to workout, you risk weakening your immune system, which is counter-prodctive to your health/fitness goals. Curl up with a mug of cocoa and a good book. Those DVD's under the tree will wait for...

(My DH isn't too bad about chick flicks. For example, last >night we watched Notting Hill together TWICE. No kidding. We >can't seem to get enough of that movie!) Nancy, it sounds like your DH is "in touch with his feminine side," how lucky for you! My hubby would rather have a root...

I haven't seen Reign Over Me and have no desire to do so. When my DH is out of town on business, I do something for myself like having a Jane Austen movie fest...Pride and Prejudice(especially the A&E version with Colin Firth), Emma, and Sense and Sensibility. My DH detests these type of...

I love Girls Next Door, it's hilarious. I also own one of the original Steps in teal, with purple and fuscia risers. I purchased it in 1989. Holly shouldn't have tossed it out, it will be a collector's item someday ;-) Sarah

I am not a fan of Lara Bars, but Mrs. May's Trio bars are fabulous. I have found Trio bars at Costco and Whole Foods. Delish. Sarah :)

I didn't find it easy. As a matter of fact, I got great results from using it. However, the dread-factor associated with Ab Ripper-X is HUGE for me. After doing 2 rounds of P90X, I simply can't motivate myself to do Ab Ripper-X anymore; I got major burnout from it. I sub a variety of Cathe's...

Yes, Jonahnah, I'd like to have the link. I hope Chalene is producing more workouts ala Cardio Parties and Kick Punch and Jam; love them. That OC girl is so motivating! ;-) Sarah

Jess, I love Turbo Jam and have been looking on all the Beach Body boards to see when Chalene is going to release more workouts. How did you find out that she is releasing 18 new workouts in 2008? Just curious. Sarah :)
