I too am on HRT, and have been on it for 12 years now and am only 46. I went into peri - menopause very early in life. I have tried going off of them due to how long I have been taking them but my body just isnt ready! I too have done the patch as mentioned above but now do a estrogen spray (I...

Anyone ever have a Bakers Cyst? I have one behind my right knee and its painful! If you had one - did it require surgery to aspirate it or did yours go away eventually? And how long do these last?? Ouch! Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

Next time you are on the fence just buy a month of Cathe's videos online and try them all out. That way you can do them more than once and see what best fits you. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

I too have an older tv in my workout room. I am also trying to figure out how to use my android phone to hookup on the tv to stream thru that way. I know I can bring my laptop down to the workout room, but what a bother each time! If anyone has any ideas please let share! Sent from my...

I have some of the Quest chocholate protein drink and it came with some recipes. I haven't tried any of them tho! sorry!

Which fitbit did you get? I see they have one now with a heart rate monitor and was wondering how accurate that one is.

Slowly getting back on track. I didnt premake any meals this week for work and that has really been a downfall. Work cafeteria food is yucky and soooo bad for you! Thanks for asking!!

I was eating 'clean' but this past week I bought pumpkin bagels and I'm in love with them! Cant get enough and I feel I would let them go to waste if I dont eat the whole package. Of course, I need cream cheese to go with them! Help! Get them out of my house before I eat more! ;)

Geez...Im all for updating and I know I will get used to this new 'forum' but boy do I feel old with new this technology! It has taken me 10 minutes and a few sign-ons (why am I getting kicked off??) before I even found the right forums that I wanted to read. Anyway, its the start of a new...

Just finished my 1st WOD. All I can say is: WOW! I 'thought' I was in relatively good shape. Nope. That burned me out. The support by the team and coach is awesome. They push you but in a good way. But just as in the foundations class, I am not able to go as deep into the squats as you are...

Thanks everyone for your input. I know that it is intense but I wanted to try it out for a month or two. Why not right?? Looking forward to my 1st WOD tmrw!

I have been in menopause for 10 years now at the age of 45. (Add a few years prior to that for the 'perimenopause' phase). So for 12 years I have fought weight gain in my midsection! It is true what the others say - diet helps tremendously! I have ate 'clean' now for about 5 months, a true...

Well I did the 'foundations' class yesterday where you learn the moves, lingo and did your first 'WOD' (workout of the day). I had to relearn how to do squats. Your butt goes down as far as you can (almost hitting the floor) with your feet hip distance apart and feet straight (still no knees...

Anyone out there tried Crossfit and how do you like it? It looks to me like an intense workout - but want to hear from Catheletes! I have a chance to go today for the 'foundations' class so I thought I would go. Opinions please!

I have done a 21 day 'sugar detox' around March and have felt so much better that I kept it going. It was so tough in the beginning!! I feel sooo much better without sugar (and flour) in my system. But I'm not gonna lie to ya...I do cheat once and a while. Hey, I'm only human! ;) Good luck...

Intriguing concept ladies! I too am post menopausal (early menopause actually since 33 y/o) and have a hard time with muscle definition and easy weight gain. I think I may have to try this :)

Curious on your questions as well as I am starting the paleo diet as well.

As the others have said - check with your OB GYN. I too have suffered with peri menopausal symptoms at the age of 34 (thankfully was done with child birth by then). I am now 44 with daily progesterone and estrogen needs - without these meds i would be in hot flashes constantly with many mood...
