    Thinking about loosening up (long)

    Hi Nancy (The Elder?? not even my dear:-) ) I'm really liking what I'm reading here, Nancy. I do believe it is more a mind-set rather than age thing. You are very health conscious, so you will still eat healthy foods. And two/three days per week of exercise has done well with you...

    Anyone Convinced Someone Else to Lose Weight?

    Wow Nancy, thank you so much for sharing that with us. I think so many of us are told that we are overweight (or sometimes simply not thin enough) as young girls and it does indeed have a profound effect on us for the rest of our lives in one way or another. I too, was anorexic for many...

    hey kickbox instructors

    Good Morning to you, Stephanie and Fellow Instructors!! You are so right...we should start our own business on how to instuct/teach. You can study and pass your certifications with flying colors, but that does not teach you HOW to teach!! And I have found anyway that even with some...

    Any chatters out there tonight?

    Elaine...I guess we always think the grass is always greener. I dream of living somewhere like CA where it's always warm. I get sooo cold!! But, you're right, I would miss the snow and making snowmen. I'll make one in your honor, okay? Have a great night!! Gotta run..DH is home and...

    Any chatters out there tonight?

    Hi Lori! How are you? Sorry you're bored, but that is probably a good thing with your job I imagine. I live in PA and it's cold (we got snow last night). Winter is here and I miss the light already. It gets dark way too early for me!! Have a good night!!!

    Anyone Convinced Someone Else to Lose Weight?

    Hi Sparrow, What a great friend you are! I believe you have done everything that you possibly can at every opportunity that afforded itself to you. My younger sister and I have always watched what we ate and exercised from the time we were young. My mother always reinforced that with...

    hey kickbox instructors

    Stephanie...excellent advice!! I too cue my new routine out loud to the music I picked while driving in my car...haha. It worked!! I'm so glad you also mentioned not to get discouraged if you hear people talking about you (in a negative way) when you first begin. This will happen. It...

    hey kickbox instructors

    Hi Christine! It's hard for everyone at first...truly. But, I promise one day it really just clicks with you and then you can never go back to thinking or doing it any other way. A little trick that helped when was learning was when I was in someone else's class, I would cue to myself...

    hey kickbox instructors

    Hi Boxer! I kept thinking about you last night and I just wanted to add to my previous post to you, since I believe you are new instructor in general. Cueing properly is the HARDEST thing to learn. It really takes a lot of practice to learn to cue in time BEFORE you do the move. I find...

    hey kickbox instructors

    Well...first congratulations on your new venture!! I would also say get some great music that you can really get into. Believe me, you better like it because you will have heard it a thousand times before you ever teach the class (with all the practicing). Trust me on that..haha. If you...

    I was hoping the same thing, Anne, as were quite a few others. I ordered early in the Presale and tried to put it out of my mind ever since. I agree with you that they will be really great and worth every minute we are waiting. Have a great day!!

    I'm so mad I could spit

    So very sorry. I keep you in my prayers! I can't imagine what that must be like for you. You have every right to be frustrated. Keep up the good fight and hopefully the prayers for you will come shining through for you and your son.

    Anyone else irritated by the Victoria's Secret "fashion" show?

    RE: Anyone else irritated by the Victoria's Secret I could not agree more with all of you. I think it's totally inappropriate to air it on TV at that time. It is borderline porn. I used to love Little House on the Prairie and I always wanted to be little Laura Ingals...maybe I was born at...
