Thanks Ladies! Sheryl (sme702) :)

Are we supposed to lift enough weight to burn out the muscle and create 'DOMS'? Is that the goal to a strength training workout such as Xtrain? Ive had some doms that literally put me out for a few days to where I get them that 'I know I've worked out' (but not put me out) -- which is the optimal?

I use mine on a flat top cook surface! It hasnt hurt either surface at all. (I also use them in the oven and on the grill as well )

I agree -- invest in a few cast iron pans. The taste is better and health benefits are a plus. As long as you season them well, they will be nonstick. Plus if you take care of them, they will last you literally forever! You can pass them on to your grandchildren in the years to come! Good luck...

Thanks all for your stories. This 'diet' seems to be working well for me and I'm hoping to continue. As one of you said 'it takes a lot of planning' and it does. But I'm not tired during the day and I have been sleeping well this past week. (And bonus -- no bloat!) The other morning I did...

I've started a 'cleanse' last Sunday (a 3 week program I got from my friend who does crossfit) Basically - its no sugar, salt, flour or dairy with eating a protein + fat + veg 5-6x daily (depending on your WOD (workout of the day)) In one week I've lost 10 inches and 6 lbs. Today starts another...

Time to buy some more paper - gotta print this off! Thanks for the update, have used my old one so much (and written stuff on it) that I needed a new one anyway :)

I have 2: on my right hip I have 3 hearts with a ribbon running through them. Each heart symbolizes my 2 kids and hubby, the ribbon is me - holding us all together. 2: an anchor with a bird on my left shoulder. Anchors symbolize stability and faith, while the bird is for freedom and love. Love...

I agree with Kristi. Try Basic Step and Body Fusion. Those are excellent starter step videos. Plus they are considered 'Intermediate' where you can add intensity by jumping or step height.

Why not add Low Max and the IMax' s to your list? They are step workouts as well!

I've been on the forum for a long time too. I don't post much still view from time to time! Still lovin' Cathe after all these years! :)

I think I remember one called dotties weight loss zone. Try www.dwlz.com This one was helpful to me when I was doing weight watchers.

Just put my request in!

Curse you Candy Crush! Just got done playing my 5 lives. And looking forward to them renewing later to play again! I think I have CC addiction. But I really don't care :)

I have been a member for YEARS but since I just look and read without replying alot, my status isnt very high. But I dont care! I still consider myself an important member of this forum - despite my 'status rank.' You dont have to be one of those that reply to every post.

As a nurse in a hospital, I can personally say it IS very hard to help out overweight patients. The older and heavier they get, the less they move and depend on us to even turn them in bed (really). Its a daily struggle for us and there are times when it takes 2 of us to turn a pt. (btw, it...

Who wears underware to workout? I learned that lesson a long time ago - no undies = no ride up! (and no underware lines)

As a nurse I can tell you that there are many causes to an increased heart rate. Some of those responded to your original post have hit just about all causes. Until you see your doctor, dont do strenuous excercises (try yoga instead) keep thouroughly hydrated and stop taking any "vitamins" -...

Love love love my Nook! When Im done reading a book (or taking a break from it) I can go online to Cathe forums or play games or even 'go to the library' to search for my next read!

As a night shift worker, all I can say is I totally love my fan! Sleeping during the day is hard enough as it is with the sun shining in, but when you add neighbors mowing or kids watching tv in the other room - well you gotta do whatcha gotta do! I think I will check into that app tho :)
