I'm in California. And it's not cold here. It hardly ever is. I feel sort of cheated every Christmas because of course we don't have snow.

It's only 3:30 in the afternoon where I am and work is boring for me any time of day! I've been doing this way to long for it to be fun anymorex(

Ditto the rave reviews for MTV Pilates Mix. Love it for core work!

I voted Other because I don't schedule rest days. I just take them when other parts of my life cause me to miss a workout! Now, I do have lighter workouts that ususal scheduled in during the week.

It depends on how intense or how long the workout is. I started out on a 10 mile training run once without eating breakfast. I almost didn't make it. The first 4 or so miles were OK but my glycogen stores must have been depleted after that. That wasn't such a great feeling so now I always...

That is SO cool! I have a little village that I add on to each year. I wait until really close to or right after Christmas and buy the items a year ahead of time when the stores are practically giving them away.

RE: Anyone else irritated by the Victoria's Secret VS models and models in general really don't bother me. I'm 46 years old and have had four children. For all that wear and tear I don't look so bad!! Plus, I can run a four hour marathon! And my husband thinks I'm PERFECT so I have nothing...

It's been a long while now, but I can distinctly remember breaking up with a boyfriend during the Christmas season. It was really rough but the good news is that eventually the pain goes away. So, so sorry you have to go through this! My heart goes out to you.... Try to hang in there!

The core plan is plain ol' clean eatin'. If you're going to do WW I'd recommend the core plan since I consider it a lifestyle change rather than a temporary diet. If you do the flex plan you can eat as much crap as your points allow and to me that's just a diet. I would think that once...

I asked for an assisted pullup tower and it was delivered today! It's sitting outside the front door so my DH can bring it in when he gets home from work. That thing is heavy! It was only $179 from Costco and there was no shipping fee. There are several other fitness related things I'd like...

"I'm moved by young men who enlist today with full knowledge of what lies ahead of them. Such bravery!! I'll keep him in my prayers." Ditto that!

A little on the pricey side but cute. Here's the link: http://www.skirtsports.com/site/index.cfm

Does Sculpting Her Body Perfect have illustrations of anatomy?

Yep, I used them when I trained for and ran a marathon this past October. I used them at the tail end of my 20 mile long run and the last 3 or so miles of the marathon. I opened the pack and popped one at a time into my mouth until I finished. They worked great in providing the boost I needed...

Here's a good candy recipe that I make every year. It's bad, bad, bad though! Toffee 1 lb butter 2 cups sugar 2 cups ground almonds 3 T water 2 large Hershey's chocolate bars Add 1 lb butter to 2 cups sugar. Melt slowly in heavy pan, STIRRING CONSTANTLY. Add 3 T water. Cook to...

There are two Strength Training Anatomy books by Frederic Delavier available. One is titled "Strength Training Anatomy" and the other is "Strength Training Anatomy for Women" I'm wondering which one I would benefit from the most. Is the book written specifically for women comprehensive...

I had always wanted to try the Powerstrike Millennium workouts too. Since I didn't want to spend alot of money on workouts I wasn't sure I would like, I kept an eye out for them on ebay. Eventually all three of them appeared and I got them for a total of $50. I am very happy with the workouts...

They sell Nature's Path cereal at the Trader Joe's I go to. I love it sprinkled on yogurt.

There are a variety of symptoms that can be pinned on perimenopause and everyone is different. I'd say that it's a gradual process though and your hormones could very well be subtly changing at your age. When I was about your age I started having night sweats but only the night before my...
