You all look absolutely incredible! Your muscle definition is so inspiring. Looking so forward to the new series. Sandi

I agree with all of you! I was doing an MIS/PS rotation prior to getting sick 3 weeks ago and was really enjoying it as I was regularly able to add weight to my barbell. Now that I am well again, I was thinking about a PH rotation, but think I'll return to strength instead. At 31 weeks pregnant...

RE: Thanks Gina Hi Gina, Thanks for thinking of me. I had great news from my doctor on Wednesday - my lungs are clear! I still have to take it easy until I see my doctor again next Wednesday, but I am so grateful to be well on the road to recovery. I hope to resume working out after that. We...

Hi Gina, Although I haven't done any workouts for 2 weeks due to illness, I had been working out regularly with Cathe up to that point (I am now 30 weeks). I had stopped high impact cardio quite early on as it just didn't feel comfortable, but was still doing step and Tae-Bo. I also was doing...

Thanks Gina My Grandpa's death wasn't totally unexpected - he was 93 and had Alzheimer's, but his body was very strong and we expected him to last quite a long time. But in his last week, his body started to shut down, so we were somewhat prepared. He lived about an 8 hour drive from us and my...

I'm finally starting to feel a little like a human again, so I'd thought I'd share my past 2 weeks with you, knowing you'll understand... A week ago Monday my Grandpa passed away and, of course, I was upset. I got a terrible headache and just thought it was from being sad. The headache got...

WOW!!!!!! It's fabulous to finally see your face, Donna, as we feel we know you already. You are astounding, truly astounding, and beautiful. I've told you before and I'll tell you again, you are an amazing woman with an amazing attitude :-)! And Connie, look at you! Beautiful and cut! Another...

She is adorable! Congratulations on your beautiful little daughter - love her name, too! Sandi

Congratulations Becky! Good for you - an active pregnancy, fast delivery and already doing full-intensity Cathe - with a happy baby to boot! Way to go! Enjoy that little boy - I've got two girls and a boy (expecting my second boy in January) and I think you'll find your daughters will love him...

Donna, your post brought tears to my eyes. You are a very strong person and I admire you immensely. This forum IS wonderful for support, but don't forget it is still YOU that made the decision to change your life and continue to do so. Your daughters can't help but see the changes in you and...

RE: Been there... and it'll be okay :) Hi Kaz, All of the ladies here are right - you are right on target for weight gain. I'm due just after you (Jan 23) and, based on my last doctor appt in early October, I'm sure that I'm at least at the 20 lbs gain mark now as well. With my other 3 kids, I...

Congratulations on your wedding, Linda! Glad you had a great time on your cruise! Sandi

Hi Lori! You'll find lots of expert advice on this forum regarding medical issues, etc, but I can tell you my experience. I am almost 28 weeks pregnant with my fourth child - this is my first pregnancy where I have worked out fairly consistently. With my first 3 kids I gained 45 lbs each time...

Donna, I truly admire you as well. You have improved the quality of your life through hard work and determination. And your outlook on life is so positive and uplifting, I always enjoy reading your posts:-). Good for you, you are really an inspiration for us all!!!!! Sandi

Congratulations on your new little son! Looking forward to those pictures when you get a chance! Take care, Sandi

Congratulations on your little daughter! Isabella is such a pretty name. Take good care of yourself and allow plenty of time for recovery. Enjoy every minute of that wonderful newborn time. Sandi

Congratulations Beets! I can imagine your incredible relief on hearing the good news and the excitement of seeing your baby again. Thanks for the update! Sandi (due 01/23/03) PS Any sneak peeks at what gender it is? :-)

It is so hard to pick out the "perfect" name, isn't it? I'm 27 weeks with baby no. 4 (boy) and we've already used the names we really liked with our 2 daughters and son. DH has gone through the baby name book and made a short list (short because he doesn't like many names). Every other name I...

Congratulations on your new daughter! I'm sorry to hear about your complications and hope you are healing quickly. Rest as much as you can and take care of yourself while enjoying Georgia Anne (very pretty name!). Sandi

This is my fourth pregnancy (I'm almost 27 weeks now) and my one craving throughout has been chocolate. I don't have a sweet tooth generally, but have been giving in to this craving daily. Kaz, I don't know if the craving thing indicates sex of the baby, since I'm having a boy as well and we're...
