Thanks!! I appreciate everyone's comments- there's some great advice in the posts. I'm glad there are some junk food junkies out there. One thing I've noticed, is that I'll buy junk for no real reason. If I go to a quickie-mart type store for milk, I'll also get donuts. If I'm at the grocery...

I just read that the your hips should not be lower than your knees when sitting on the ball. There are some guidelines online to use when buying a ball. But be careful- make sure to get one large enough because the one I was told to get by a small online merchant was too small. Those ball kits...

Has anyone here been a junk food lover and changed their ways? I'm not overweight and am healthy (I'm also only 24), but I eat so much junk- candy, cake, fries, etc. everyday (not just once in awhile). It doesn't help that I don't love fruits and veggies. So for those who have adopted healthy...

Is there a place on the site giving bios/pics of the girls? I'd like to know more about them. I always confuse them too- is Rhonda the tall, thin one w/long brown hair?

I'm 4'11" and used to do 6" too, mainly for intensity. Then my knees started to ache on occassion, so I reluctantly lowered it. But you're right, you can do a lot of the power moves better. Now 6" seems so high and hard on my knees! Better to be safe, especially when you're short! Besides, on...

small changes If you can, I'd add more cardio and stick to a specific strength rotation for awhile. 3 things I do: 1. Whenever I get bored or plateau, I mix things up. I find that mixing up cardio works well for me. I do Cathe and other cardio tapes, spinning, kickboxing, or running. It's...

I love to get a plain burger and fries when I eat out at places like TGIFridays, Applebees and Chilis. Obviously, fries aren't healthy at all, but are burgers really super bad? There's so much news on what's good and bad that it's hard to keep up! I thought getting a burger was better than my...

After doing weight training for years, I get bored easily so I like Power Hour. I like MIS too, but Power Hour is faster paced and mixes things up more so it goes by faster. I think Power Hour is more endurance since I can't use as mcuh weight as MIS, but I love it.

I'm trying to lose a few pounds without any huge diet changes. I thought I may be able to do this by not eating my usual bedtime snack (popcorn, ice cream, chips, or sweets). I eat a good dinner around 6, and have a snack between 9-11, bedtime is midnight. I'm not super hungry for the snack, I...

Westies All the little dogs mentioned above are cute! I have a West Highland Terrier and love her, but I do get jealous when I see other puppies like Malteses, even though they're all similar. Pros of a Westie: Cute, small, doesn't shed much if you get it groomed occasionally, not a "yippie"...

I rest! I think I'm the only one who lets myself take a day off! There's one day of the month where I just feel "off"- it's not really cramps, I'm just tired and feel out of it. I've tried to workout, but I'm just not into it. So if I do feel yucky, I let myself relax. It's just 1 day a month...

Dancers body I like the YogaFusion videos. There are a few different ones- I'm not sure which is the best, but I do like "Power." It incorporates stretching, yoga, and some toning. I like it cause you get a bit of everything, it's not too fast or slow, and her voice isn't irritating. Sometimes...

Ideas... LAST EDITED ON Aug-16-02 AT 10:25PM (Est)[p]Wow! You're gonna be busy and we're gonna get fit! I'd better save up $ (and energy) now!

I had wrist surgery and can't workout for a few weeks. And then I'm having toe surgery. So I probably won't be able to workout too much for almost 2 months! I think it'd be a good time for me to work on eating better, but how can I figure out how many calories I should eat since I'm not...

Has anyone tried eDiets? It's $35 for 9 weeks and has gotten some good reviews, but I don't want to waste my money. My problem is eating too much junk and not much healthy stuff. I'm not sure if it's like every other diet gimmick out there. Please give me any opinions!

Of course, you can check online (shipping might be high though)- I think Cathe has a link on her links page. I got mine at Sports Authority. They had 2 sizes- the shorter length and longer (like Cathe's), with 4 risers. I got the shorter to save $, but I wish I got the longer one. Check out...

I used to skip chest because I thought "who really sees my chest muscles (in clothes)??" Then I started doing it because I fell like I'm "resting" since I'm technically laying down while doing presses/flys. I like the muscle that you get so I think it's worth it (I only do it 1x a week though-...

I agree with them. I used to mix up weight training cause I thought that was right since you should mix up your cardio. You really do need to focus on a routine for awhile. Be Consistent!!! And you need enough cardio and a good diet to see the results.

Great Question! 1. When guys sit on the weight machines for like 5 minutes between sets. I know I can technically work in with them, but I really don't want to adjust all the settings and weights, then sit on a machine where some big, sweaty guy in a tank top was just sitting. 2. Girls who...

Thanks! Thanks for your comments. I decided to get it- I just wish it was available on DVD by itself!!!
