Morning everyone - Called in sick to work today :-( - I've got the beginning of a cold and some nauseau. Truth is I could have made it in, but I'm swamped at work so it will be easier to get the work done from home - so I guess I'm not really out sick, just working from home. Whatever...

Annette - My heart goes out to you. I know where I tend to be when my family needs me - right at their side so I understand completely how upset your husband is over not being able to be with his brother. Lots of hugs and prayers to you and your dh and his entire family. Claude "Age...

HI everyone - I know it's late but I was cleaning out my purse and found some recipes that my WW leader gave us this week. I wanted to share cuz they really sound good - Cauliflower Soup - 1 butternut squash - poke holes and microwave for a few minutes, just long enough to be able to peel...

Morning everyone - Completely forgot to check in yesterday. I did GS Chest & Tris yesteray and GS Legs today. Gotta keep the improvement going in those legs!! Friday afternoon I think Teddygirl triggered some kind of sympathy stres eating. After I read her post I lost it and devoured the...

Lots of prayers and {{{{{hugs}}}}} coming your brohter's and your way. Claude "Age is a question of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter." Satchel Paige

I echo both the cardio and weight training suggestions. I like to go to the gym for a change of pace, but I never seem to get as good a workout as when I'm home using my Cathe workouts. Something paced on the ipod would be awesome. Claude "Age is a question of mind over matter. If you...

Cathe - I just had to share - I recently received GS Legs and have been doing it about once a week since. I love it! Today I was having a sports massage. My therapist asked what I'd been doing differently for my lower body workouts. He said he could see more muscle tone!!! The only...

Forgot to tell you what's up with me - I went to PT yesterday and the hot, good looking therapist unlocked my back. Took him a while, but it is better. Today saw the massage therapist who worked for a long time on my lower back and glutes and hips where most of the pain is. I'm expecting...

Hi everyone - Only slightly less crazy today - at least I'm not at work. Amy - {{{{{HUGS}}}}} to you during this frustrating time. I think Traci and Buffy are dead on. This is a lifestyle, not a diet. You KNOW you are eating better; you KNOW your exercising is making you leaner, fitter...

Morning everyone - Another crazy day is on tap and I'm checking in now as I don't think I'll have a chance later. Got 30 min of treadmill/stair stepper in last night. It was a nice short sweatfest. I would have like to go longer, but the hips and back were not cooperating. This AM I'm...

HI everyone - Swamped today - so it's gonna be short. Did a stability ball class yesterday and my back is NOT HAPPY;( . Haven't worked out yet, am hoping to get in a steady state cardio tonight. Have an appt with my massage therapist tomorrow, but I'm tempted to skip it and call my physical...

Jane - WOW - that's fantastic progress!! High fives!!! Amy - Ouch!! If it's still bleeding, does it need stitches? Hope it heals better fast. Claude "Age is a question of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter." Satchel Paige

Morning everyone - Today was Lowmax. I had trouble deciding, and then wasn't sure if I wanted to do it with one riser or two or any at all. But finally, using one riser, I got into it and had a great workout. Eating was awesome yesterday - completely OP. That's three days in a row - I'm...

Corinne - {{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}} to you and your family! You're now on my prayer list too. Buffy - thanks for the CC#6 recommendation - I'll have to check it out. Claude "Age is a question of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter." Satchel Paige

Sandra - thanks for the recipe! I can't wait to try it. I was also concerned about the music before I bought CC. I think the music is great overall, although there is one section during one of the longer steady states that gets a little repetitive (I think it lasts all of 30 seconds, but it's...

I totally understand. Your comment about it being like a combination that you're trying to unlock is dead on. I believe (and this may totally conflict with what you've read else where) that each person has their unique combination of what works to lose weight and maintain a healthy body. For...

Sandra - CC#4 is an interval - starts off with steady state and then adds in sprints and hills. The coach, Sean, who talks you through it is great. He reminds me of Cathe - you know how she always says just what you need to hear when you need to hear it? He's the same way -I'll be ready to...

Morning everyone - This am was GS Chest & Tris. I'm feeling it already - I expect some big time DOMS tomorrow. Jane - ohhh that apple dumpling sounds delightful:9!! My strategy would be to share it with DH. Since it's a once in a while treat you may as well enjoy. Then plan on healthy...

Tonight I made a roast beef with a demi glaze sauce plus I had a baked sweet potatoe (DH & DD has white baked potatoes) with steamed peapods and a salad. Dessert was an oreo with 1 tspn of PB - YUMMMMMM. Claude "Age is a question of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't...
