    Speaking of hornets' nests . . .

    Although I know you didn't mean it, this statement really hit me in the gut and just hurt. And hurt. After everything I've been through, you can't even know how much....Like I was so passive and mindless - which is not how it was. I did 'take the reins' of my healthcare. I ate well, I...

    Speaking of hornets' nests . . .

    My breast cancer was treated with traditional chemo/surgery/radiation. I did not do nearly the amount of research that Carola has. Quite frankly, I wasn't interested in hunting around while the tumor was growing in my body. That may sound irresponsible and somewhat 'sheep-like', but there...

    Mirrors in workout space

    Question for the people who have mirros - Did you just buy the small square mirrors you get at the home depot, or did you invest in ceiling to floor length 'studio' mirrors? If neither, where did you get your mirrors? Thanks!

    Do you have to input everything you eat? How do you manage spending all that time doing that? What if the food is homemade and you don't know exact amounts? Thanks.

    One of my beloved Kitchen Cats...

    I'm so sorry for the loss of your kitty. I just put my old kitty down fairly recently. I hope your memories of him will bring you a smile while you grieve.

    another question for runners

    Clare - Thanks for the post. Yes, the idea is to do each week's workout three times and then move to the next week. I guess my question was do I keep doing the workout until it's not so unpleasant, or do I just keep moving up to the next level, and my body will eventually catch up to the...

    another question for runners

    Thank you for the feedback! So what I'm hearing is to not worry about my heart rate so much, but to rely more on how I'm feeling. I don't know if I could make it through an entire song running. I purchased a couple of Cardio Coaches and I can just make it through. I'm not so sure I'm into...

    another question for runners

    I am doing a 'couch to 5k' running program. Each week you do a slightly more difficult run than the week before, until you can run the entire 5k. However, this is my question. If I am doing the running for fat loss, what is the best method for moving up to the next level. My 'maximum heart...

    I just downloaded the remaining podcasts for the whole program today. There should be about 10 podcasts in all. The Chubby Jones podcast is not on the cool runners site. I apologize if I made it seem that way. Here's the training program: http://www.coolrunning.com/engine/2/2_3/181.shtml...

    The music in that whole series of workouts is some of my consistently favorite music Cathe's ever used.

    I have been downloading a podcast from iTunes called Chubby Jones Couch to 5K. I'm trying to get back into running to change up my cardio plan. The original Couch to 5K program can be found at coolrunners.com. It actually looks like someone even as lethargic as myself can do it! I...

    Feeling Guilty

    No, no, no feeling guilty! Just chalk it up to a day off - heaven knows we all deserve it - and get back to your routine tomorrow. No harm done!

    Name that Tune?

    In the Legs and Glutes workouts, there is a song that I can't figure out what it is. It's during the part of the workout where you are laying on your back, one heel on the step, and doing glutes raises. The song sounds like they are singing "I know Corrina..." or something like that. Can...

    Valerie Bertinelli's workout

    Not discounting her hard work, the lady sure was born with the 'magic genes'. The Divine Ms. Obama's got nothin' on those guns...;)
