    Anti-wrinkle cream

    Retin-A type products work. Or, one that is less "harsh" to the skin is Kinerase. I like that one. Alexis

    The Party Thread

    I'm feeling frisky. I'm feeling irreverent. I think we need a party. The topic is: In A Perfect World ...... Do-gooders are not invited though. Yeah, yeah, we all want world peace and a cure for cancer but, to be honest, it's not party material. So here goes. I hope you all join in the...

    Spider veins anyone?

    I'm getting old and I'm in denial. I'm starting to get these little spider vein things on my legs and my ego is not happy about it! I've heard that topical Vitamin K is supposed to make them go away. Have any of you tried it? Does it work? Thanks, Alexis

    Toot toot!

    That's fantastic, Bobbi! I know that you've missed your running and I'm so happy to hear that you have "confident feet" again! Maybe you made them happy with all that yoga! Alexis

    Yeah, revenge. That's a great idea. I guess you didn't hear, really hear, what everyone was saying here. Alexis

    so depressed

    Leslie, I'm gonna do some tough-love here. Nobody here is going to save you from your problems. The drugs feel good to you. So you have a choice to continue with the drugs for a superficial high or get your butt to a counselor, doctor, or rehab. It's easy to have a drug habit and complain...

    Top 3 "Hall of fame" Cathe workouts?

    RE: Top 3 I have this vision of Kathryn sitting at her computer with a bottle of bourbon and a whip, waiting to lash us for screwing up the rules. And she'll be yelling profanities in French too. I'm afraid. But here goes: 1. LL/Upper Body Split 2. Power Hour 3. Slow & Heavy...

    Troy Lite

    The on-line price isn't too bad but this is what I did. I went to my local equipment place, Chicago Home Fitness, but anyplace is worth a try. I told them I wanted the Troy Lite and they ordered it for me. Paid tax but saved bunches on the shipping. I also paid the same price as is...

    Troy Lite

    Kathryn, I'm curious as to why you're thinking of ordering an additional Troy Lite. Please don't tell me you'll be using them both at the same time! ROFL Based on everyone's raves for the Troy Lite, I ordered one and love it sooooo much. It's easy to change weights, easy to hide (sort of)...

    OT: ADHD chatrooms

    I really don't know. I don't know of many kids who are prescribed Ritalin anymore but it still may be popular, just don't know. Adderall is a time-release that works well for us and another friend of mine. He takes it in the morning and he's done. I think I mentioned the Amen Clinic before...

    OT: ADHD chatrooms

    Well, the doc suggested Adderall to start so we used that. I think the dose was a bit high and my son got aggitated very easily which was a big change from his laid-back self. The doc switched him to Strattera which had been out only a month. The doc liked this drug cuz it's not a stimulant...

    OT: ADHD chatrooms

    Hey guys, The Fed. Disabilities Act was passed decades ago in an effort to mainstream children who had severe disabilities. The law was passed, and the school districts had to figure out how to incorporate the children into the classrooms. I mention this because it was a wonderful milestone in...

    OT: ADHD chatrooms

    Just chiming in here. In order for your son to receive special services, there is a whole process with the school district that needs to be completed, at least in Illinois. A letter from the MD is just the beginning of the process. A team will meet with you and discuss a strategy plan. This...

    What are your reasons for preordering the new workouts?

    That's easy. I wanted a coffee mug! And I got one coming cuz the Patriots RULE! Aside from my materialistic nature, the price to pre-order seemed reasonable, I'm medium/advanced in strength, and a novice at step. I figured if I was ever going to like step, this would be the deciding factor...
