I could get completely lost in Whole Foods. I miss that as Germany doesn't have it. :(

Totally. I usually do 45-60 min of cardio and strength training (30+) minutes. If it's a recovery day, I'm on the mat doing yoga for 90-120 minutes. However, I'm 8+ months preggo and the German docs are amazed at how great of shape I'm in (sorry if that sounds arrogant, but I just had my...

I have never peed my pants (or gone while I was running---I stop to do that), but I have NO PROBLEM with going in the woods or if it's dark enough, going between houses. I also go in gas stations, resturants, etc.

No sweat, Jess. Thanks for clarifying. We're good! I'm glad you feel open in sharing your opinion, which by definition cannot be wrong. ;) Same for mine. It's all good! Anyone heard from Clarissa? I'm itching to hear how things went for her.

Jess, I'm sticking with my opinions. I can't/won't let others tell me how to feel or not to feel. I respect how you feel about it, but that's not how I see it. I think people need to be more mindful of what AND how they say something. I absolutely refuse to go down the path of not honoring my...

HI Jess, Yes, nothing wrong with showing, but you must understand that I know this person. I haven't had to buy anything as everything is hand-me-downs. The biggest issue is that this woman doesn't work with me everyday (maybe I see her once every three-to-six months). It wasn't what she said...

And some of us who have STS, but can't/won't start because of being preggo. We're out there...lurking. ;)

This happened to me once, but not with STS. I use lifting gloves with an extra wrap around my wrists so I can lift as heavy as possible.

Yeah, be careful with the food, but definitely take advantage of the fitness center, theater/shows, activities on deck, etc. That's great fun! I went on one cruise only (Costa) and went to the same ports as you. IMHO, the excursions weren't worth it as the ship had everything necessary. I...

Jen & Skyy--please stick around!!! I can only speak for myself, but I'd love to have you here--even if you're not preggo. ;) I am in the worst freakin' mood. A woman is here meeting with one of my co-workers, Jen. Jen was at her desk, the woman was in the kitchen and I walked into the kitchen...

Hi Dawn! Welcome to the forum. I'm so glad you came on board. I felt big at 11 weeks, but kept wondering when I'd start showing. It took awhile, but it finally happened.

Me too! That was LOL hilarious!!! ;) And I'm only 36.

Good luck Clarissa. I'm thinking of you and hope all goes well!

I am so excited for you! I've only competed once and loved it! I would do it again, but I'm 8 months preggo today. I'll live vicariously through you and know that one day I will be on stage again. I can't wait to hear all about your training...and graduation day--when you stand proudly on...

Go with what feels right with your body. It's a great DVD and you won't be disappointed. I don't run anymore as I have lower back pain, but your baby will tell you what s/he needs. Yes, continue with what you need and the rest will fall into place.

That's a tough one. I have a mother like this and have told her not to share any of my information with anyone. Have you confronted her? If not, start there. If so, and she's still doing it, tell her how you feel about it. If she chooses to continue to do so, then she will know that you do...

No way! I love training! It's so much fun, when I'm not tired. Today is just a challenge, but yesterday (for example) was great! I had four clients only, but loved every single second of it. The bummer is that I thoroughly enjoy training all of my clients. I'm going to take a nap now and...

You're NOT a wuss. I rarely run anymore even though I've done 6 marathons (maxed out at 60-70 miles per week). I just don't love it anymore. I have bad back pain and am 32 weeks on Tuesday. I sometimes wear a belly belt, but not during exercise. Do what feels right for your body. You go...

There is no age limit---only in your mind! Go for it! Definitely start with local/smaller shows. You are not at all nuts. Diet is key. Keep with the lifting and cardio and consult with a professional (like Tneah said).

1. I think Cathe's Leg and Glutes (did it this morning) is much more intense than any of P90x legs. Butts and Guts as well. 2. Try 1 arm rows, 2 arm rows, pullovers, etc. for the subs. 3. I don't think the Cardio of anything in P90x is that intense. I like the Core session, but don't...
