I love waxing I only wax my bikini area. Yes, it does hurt at first, but now I have hardly any hair that grows in there and it doesn't hurt much at all. I did it at home with the cold wax strips by Nair or Sally Hansen for a long time. I decided to treat myself to a salon wax and learned...

RE: Cottage Cheese I followed it to a "T". The first two were real thin, so maybe let the batter sit a minute or two before cooking. I topped mine with Apricot Sauce, but they were pretty tasty plain too. :9 Just finished my bowl of oatmeal with cc in it! Andrea

Cottage Cheese THANK YOU for the cottage cheese links and recommendations. I made the shanny cakes (from VF) this morning. Yum. I just had applesauce, cc, and cinnamon. Yum. Wow!:9 Andrea

Oh My Gosh! What a surprise! I haven't posted much lately, so I'm sure most of you don't even know me. Thank you so much! I had a piece of boxed carrot cake x( blech and I'm 28:o But, I knew my birthday cake would be a disappointment so I made myself a Fuzzy Navel Cake. Definitely...

Hi Charlene, I think you have A LOT planned. If you usually work out that much then you'll probably be fine. I've always gotten great results with just CTX alone. I do like the following rotation utilizing CTX though, just because it gives a little more variety. Two week CTX rotation...

Alison and KathyH Alison-Thanks for the suggestions. Do you mix the applesauce and cottage cheese half and half? I just happen to have some apricot sauce in my fridge so I may try that first. KathyH-Thanks for the recipe. Do these keep well for a day or two? Freeze well? Andrea

Hi Marcia, I agree that genetics play a big part in running, just as in anything else. I also am very tall, but I'm not fast. Some people are just naturally fast runners. 9 miles is a long way! I have just realized, that it's okay if the longer mileages kick my butt. I was under the...

Alison So...how do you eat that cottage cheese? After about one serving I'm done for about 3 months. I also read Nancy's post with great interest (both of them:-) ) Andrea

Debra I checked the reviews at VF and Scott actually has quite a few videos! I'll probably get Millenium I. Not soon though I'm sure. Have you had any problems while building your running back up? Yes, I ran my first race of the year (5k) last weekend. I felt like I did so much...

Hi Debra! I was just thinking about either this video or Kari's ALC. I only have a few stretching videos and I like their 1/2 hour length. But, no video seems to get my quads much. If Scott's gets the hip flexors I'm thinking maybe it would get the quads too. I'm also thinking an hour...

I did it for about two years. I loved it the whole time. I have been working out mid-morning mixed with some evenings now. I don't know how I did it and enjoyed it though! Now, it seems I'm more tired at night. I was doing it cause it was the only time I could do it without...

Awesome time! I'm hoping to do the Death Valley marathon in December. I'll have to keep you in mind in case I have questions:-) Andrea

Deborah and kotacam Deborah-Would you mind giving me a day of the diet you're talking about? Where did you get the info? kotacam-Same question basically. Where did you find the info about what competitors eat? I do remember Aimee having thyroid problems. Was this caused by the dieting...

I kept up with interest, Aimee's preparation for her figure competition. As I was reading my M&F Hers this month I started to wonder...When a competitor diets down to a low body fat is it the no carbs and low fat that is helping her get lean, or the decrease in calories? What I mean is, if...

Penny-I can finish the video, but not without some modifications. Sarah-Yes, some of the intervals it is because my thighs are on fire. But #9 from Imax2 gets me totally out of breath AND my thighs are on fire. I feel like my cardio capacity is in great shape. I just feel like it could...

I usually only do cardio 3-4 times a week at 30-60 minutes a session. Would doing 5-6 cardio sessions a week with varying times increase my cardio capacity? I've been working out for years and have never mastered an Imax without mods. I'm wondering if it is because I'm not putting in...

You're probably out there running right now, so I hope it's going well! Let us know! Andrea

Briee Reading the post from MadnNatsmom will show that all runners are different. Running helped Yen's knees, but that doesn't mean it will help yours. Everyone is different. If you do decide to run I'd suggest giving 3 days a week to it. If you can't run, there are many other wonderful...

Donna I have also been wondering how far you are from goal now. Congrats to both of you on this week's accomplishments:-) Andrea
