    Q about pain in foot

    Sometimes when I step my feet get a bit numb. I have heard that can happen if your shoelaces are a bit tight. Try to loosen your shoelaces. It sounds silly, but your problem may be as simple as that.

    Need advice on body type and Cathe tapes!

    YOU RULE! Now I can look up to someone other than Cathe! I have been working out almost daily since I was in my early 20's, I am now 39. I was a runner for years but had to start cross-training about 5 years ago which was the best thing I could do for my body. I work out during my son's...

    Need advice on body type and Cathe tapes!

    I cannot hardly believe your post. You have 10 KIDS and only weigh 115 lbs!! I have had 3 kids, work out EVERY day (cardio, weights and yoga) and I cannot seem to get rid of that loose belly skin. I am exactly your height but weigh 15 lbs more than you and my last baby is 3 mo's older than...

    TALL STEP??

    In the new Boot Camp video, the description states a "tall step" or a 14" step is needed. Isn't the maximum height of "The Step" with 2 risers only 8"? Does that mean I need to buy 3 more risers for each side to get to 14"? I am curious what the tall step is needed for? Would a chair or a...

    Yoga/Pilates Help

    I recently decided to try yoga to increase my flexibility. I don't think you will sweat when you do yoga like you do when you do an aerobic workout. I am trying out the Yoga Zone videos for beginners. You can buy a 4 box set for $39 at yogazone.com. I didn't find the first video to be overly...

    Which video is better??

    I would go with MIS if you are interested in building more strength. I have both and MIS is tougher in that it concentrates more on strength. You would definitely be happy with both videos if you can swing it $$$-wise.

    I hear you Robin. I just got Powerstrike I and II this week and did #1 yesterday. My gluts have never been so sore in my life- and I am a runner and can do all of Cathe's tapes with not much difficulty. I am having a hard time keeping up with my 18 mo old today!

    SAHMs, I need some advice!

    Health insurance I noticed a few of you inquired about affordable health insurance. I have heard an advertisement on the radio about a company that specializes in Health insurance if a person is self employed, has no benefits through work or is a stay at home mom (or dad.) The company is...

    SAHMs, I need some advice!

    I worked outside the home until my girls were 4 1/2 and 2 years old. I was only out of law school for 3 years so it was a tough decision knowing it would be hard to go back. I then worked part time out of my home, only taking as many cases as I could. When my baby was born 15 mo's ago, I quit...

    Carol Elizabeth is here!

    Congratulations on the birth of your baby girl. I was also very weepy for about 3 weeks after the birth of my 3rd baby. Anything would set me off but eventually it stopped. For me, it was getting used to having a baby again, my second was born 5 1/2 years earlier so it was like having a first...

    What next?

    I totally understand your situation because I feel like I need at least 40 min of intense cardio a day. I run 7 miles every other day and do Cathe tapes on the other days. CTX does not have long cardio segments but you can do 2 of the tapes, cardio segments only, and you will get in 40-45 min...

    Which tape to buy for postpartum shape up??

    I strongly suggest CTX. I had a baby 14 mo's ago and that series worked the best for me at that time because the workouts weren't very long. If the baby wakes, you could at least get in the cardio portion which is usually less than 30 min. You could then go back later and do the weights...

    I am gaining a lot of weight! I am always hungry! What can I do!

    Whopper with cheese I had to laugh when I was reading your post, Whoppers with cheese?? I thought, yuck! That's because I was thinking of the CANDY Whoppers (I always think of candy before anything else.) Then it hit me what you were talking about, duh!!! You provide the BEST info to the...

    Amnio?

    How can my opinion on something be judgmental or offensive? Nowhere in my reply did I condemn anyone for having the procedure. I gave my reasons for not choosing the procedure. I am merely being forthright about my personal viewpoints on amniocentisis. Giving one's opinion is not equivalent...
