    Why is it that heavier people are so critical????

    I started a post earlier and then decided not post it, but I have to speak up. I am "heavier." About 40 pounds overweight. I also work out almost exclusively with Cathe. I can do IMAX 2 and Intense Moves all the way through at the highest level. It's very hurtful that some of the people who...

    Your Fashion Pet Peeves

    I thought of this thread yesterday when I accidentally went out with socks and sandals! LOL! I was just picking up my son, so I slipped my Birks on over my socks that I was wearing because it was cold in the house. Then I decided to stop at Staples. How embarrassing! I took off the socks...

    Working Mommies Out There?

    I'm with you, Autumn, I needed to be with my baby like I needed oxygen. I took three and a half years off with him and am delaying having any more until I can do the same again. Linda, it's hard to tell right now how much time someone else would need to spend with her own baby... four of the...

    Your Fashion Pet Peeves

    Fanny Packs I don't normally carry a fanny pack, but if I were to subject myself to an amusement park, I definitely would wear one to carry my sunscreen and other necessities. I always wear my fanny pack to street fests, air shows, and holiday events, along with my desert camo water pack.

    Stay-At-Home Moms..(Long)

    I was a stay at home mom until my son was three years and three months. Then I had to go back to work for financial reasons. I usually did my workout at around ten in the morning, but I was flexible enough with my schedule that I would fit it in whenever I could, even if it meant I was doing...

    The Swan?!!

    I've stopped watching Fox because of this show... it was the last straw for me. The only Fox show I watch is "24," and I record that and zap the commercials. I don't want my boys seeing promos for that garbage. This stuff affects boys as well, not just girls. I don't want them being...

    Help! How do I mix and match?

    It sounds like the salespeople had no idea what they were talking about. My cheapo APEX DVD player is programmable, and I bought it two years ago. Maybe you can ask to see the remote controls for the models you're interested in and just look and see if they have a "program" button anywhere on...

    sugar in diet

    Hi Diane! I also get up at 3:30am for work, so giving up caffeine won't be easy! I'm on day two now of no caffeine, no sugar. I'm only giving up caffeine temporarily, though, unless I have terrific benefits. Other than a slight headache and tiredness, I don't think I've had bad withdrawals...

    Bathing suits

    I like the suits at www.kiefer.com. I like the swim team style and the suits come in various cuts.

    sugar in diet

    Hi Diane! I'm giving up sugar this week... I have 40-65 pounds to lose to so I hope it will be a nudge in the right direction. I'm glad you still have energy!

    Help! My belly fat is discouraging me!

    I just wanted to say I have the same issue. I could even live with being my size (a 14-ish) if it weren't for this gut. The gut alone is what puts me in a size 16. I worked out 301 times last year, and slimmed down my legs and arms, but did NOTHING to that gut. It is depressing. I'm giving...

    RE: OT: I was openly sobbing. The worst part is that it was real.

    Anyone see the Super Bowl halftime show?

    My kids were bored by the show. DS8 had his back to the TV when it happened and DS14 was talking to me about something. I was looking at my computer, so DH was the only one who saw it. Sadly, I wasn't shocked at all that this happened. I guess I'm a prude, but the way almost all primetime TV...

    Yeah!!!! I won the Cathe travel mug!!!!

    Great game! It had me at the edge of my seat. (I won! It almost takes away the sting of not having my Eagles in the game.)

    Okay football fans! Who will win? Patriots or Panthers?

    I'm rooting for the Patriots because I'm still bitter about the Eagles game.

    My sweet dog!

    I'm sorry about your dog. It would be an easy answer if the surgery were guaranteed to help, but you're in a tough situation. Give him some love for me, please. I give my arthritic dog baby aspirin, but she only has it around some scar tissue on one leg and only needs it when it's cold or...

    Downloading music from the internet...

    I use iTunes (even though I'm a Windows user.) It's about 99c a song. I can burn them onto disc, but if I want to put them on my son's MP3 player*, I have to burn them back from the disc onto MusicMatch, since iTunes won't send directly to the MP3 player. I like the choices and I think Apple...

    In response to Peter Jennings

    I suspect that the people who blame farmers are those who think food would magically produce itself if there were no farmers.

    I am an exercise snob!

    RE: In defense of instructors I've only taken live step classes with one instructor and she was terrific. (A combination of finances and scheduling conflict have made it difficult for me to get to those types of classes.) I worked out with her for about six months or so (she moved) and I...
