I only bought one of the criss-cross backs (I got the Asics Kumo bra that Lorraine is wearing in Supersets (?) and the pitbull top that Cedie is wearing in Legs and Glutes.) My plan is to wear it for my exclusive weight-lifting workouts, and wear it without a sports bra (I'm a B+). I can't...

Way to go, Lori!! I try to battle the mindless eating by writing down every single thing I eat in my computer food diary (the program is Diet Organizer, which I first heard about here.) A bite of Snickers? I log it. 4 packets of sugar in my coffee? I log it. It's eye-opening. I've lost 6...

Thanks for the updates, the pictures, and the terrific information. (I've already ordered two of the tops.) Hope you guys get a chance to rest up a little after your hectic shooting schedule.

I use a Weider ball from Sears (it was a Christmas present from my kids) and the only time I've had to reinflate it was when my 7yo decided he wanted to inflate it more. He ended up deflating it. I sit on it when I work from home, and whenever I do any sitting weight work. Plus, the 7yo plays...

How exciting! I can't wait to see the pictures!

I know Shari, I know where you're coming from. Actually, I was on my first diet at the age of 3 months (if only my mother knew of the wonders of breastfeeding! LOL-- not that nursing automatically prevents overweight.) My dad lives on potato chips and diet coke. Dinner when I was growing up...

First and foremost, I have to work out because otherwise I hurt. After two or three days of not working out, my back gets tight and my whole body starts to complain. I love working out, though, because I'm just starting to feel really strong and healthy again after about four years of...

I'm using a program called Diet Organizer, which I bought when a couple people here said that was what they use. My workout habits are great, but my eating habits leave a lot to be desired. Also, I wanted to find out exactly what my metabolic rate is and exactly how little I have to eat to...

I'm doing this also. I'm working on strength and endurance with the weights. My cardio will range from a 25 minute jog to MIC. I'm also trying to do abs every day. Lower body (I think) will be a combination of BC/ME lower body premixes. I'm excited to try this new rotation, to try to...

RE: SNM- lifetime guarantee on DVDs I posted on the DVD vs. VHS thread and even though I have some minor fragmenting on BC/ME, I still think DVD is the way to go... especially if there is a guarantee. (Maybe because my beloved CTX kickbox VHS got eaten last month... I'm kind of anti-VHS.)...

I'm working MIC in once a week... I love it... by the end, I feel like I'm flying! I like workouts that don't spend too much time on one thing. I'm not quite doing it all high-impact, but I bet I'm only a few weeks away. I believe MIC can take a lot of credit for the fact that my running is...

I have occasional problems with fragmenting on my BC/ME DVD. I'm not sure why I have this problem, but usually it's better if I hit stop and then play again. It doesn't happen every time I play the DVD, though. Unfortunately, almost all of my Cathe VHS tapes are starting to fail, so I'm not...

Congratulations!

My main beef with the BMI is that it is the same old height and weight charts dressed up with extra math. And that just irritates me, since it is sold as being "better than" the old height and weight charts and "more specific" although it includes the exact same variables as the old charts and...

Happy birthday Cathe! You're a great teacher, inspiration, and drill sergeant! I hope you had a great birthday.

Hi Cathe! Thanks for the update... and enjoy your vacation!

I can't wait for the new tapes, and if that means not hearing from Cathe and SNM during the summer, so be it. I can't exercise along with forum postings like I can with Cathe's excellent DVDs! I like all of her background exercisers and whoever she picks will be excellent. The last two...

I'm glad you decided not to get it. It's been so long since I tried it that I can't remember having any bad side effects, but I certainly didn't lose weight. Good luck with the clean diet! I'm STILL fighting that battle.

RE: What timing! Cathe, I'm so sorry about Dakota. Debbie, I'm sorry about Tito. Their lives are simply too short, but I know they had good ones.

I had posted a long version of "it hurts but it's worth it," but I deleted the post for fear of being seen as negative. I saw a Physician's Assistant for my prenatal care because the only OB available was evil. I had a different OB for the birth and he was great. For some people, it eases...
