Thanks for your reply Debra. I was wondering about the Windsor Pilates tapes. I was worried that they may be alot of hipe for advertising purposes. You are the first person I think I have heard recommend...or even talk about the Stott tapes. I am always looking for a tape that is as close to...

Mine is simple....trprwife....trooper wife. My husband is a PA State Trooper and I have always wanted a license plate that said my screen name...as I am very proud to be married to one, but he says no. He is worried someone with a problem with the police will take it out on me or the vehicle...

I have been seeing so much out there lately about pilates. I would like to incorporate this into my current workouts, but I would like to see if anyone out there can recommend a particular instructor. I hate to buy a tape/DVD and then hate it. I am in particular looking for a great ab...

I saw this thread as well. I only use a 4" step. I get great results because I have the energy to really get my arms into it and I don't have any knee problems either when I do my step. Kim

Hi Briee. I'm not so sure that you will see any great results with running once a week. When I say results, I mean in your distance, time, etc. Adding a run once a week would be a great cross trainning exercise, but if you have any racing in mind, you would have to do it more than that in my...

Hi Yen. I too am a fairly new runner. I have been running for just over 2 years now. I agree with what you said about the improving being slow. When I started running, I did see improvement fairly fast, in my distance and weight loss (I began running after the birth of my last baby). But...

I did awful. We went home to my parents house for the weekend and my mom is a great cook and does not know the meaning of low fat. On Saturday, my dad's family came over and everyone brought such great things to eat. Even with a little taste of everything, I still had a way to full...

I have Cathe's Body Max, MIS and Power Hour. I pause my VCR (I am behind on the times with my electronics) change my weights and then restart the workout. Would this be an option????? Kim

Hi Tricia. I am also hypoglycemic. I have the same problem as you... I get hungry right after a great workout. One of my favorite after workout snacks is a piece of toast with natural peanut butter and some honey. I always try to make my after workout snack high in protein. It seems to stay...

Hi Kathy. I'm not so sure about the exercising factor of it, but I do know from experience that it is much harder to in-line skate than it looks....alot of falling involved. If this is something that may aggrivate your condition, keep that in mind. It will take you a few times....if not...

I had some spotting with my last pregnancy. No clotting, just spotting. My doctor said that usually when you are going to miscarry, you will have very bad cramping. I have heard of women still getting their periods while they were pregnant. My doctor told me exactly what yours told you...

I second this motion..... Kim

I would also love to see a total stability ball workout. I have acquired some ball videos and they just aren't what I am looking for. I bet Cathe could do us proud with this one. Kim

RE: Weaning off Paxil and gainning weight....anyone els... Hi Barbara. I did lose a few pounds while on it...maybe only like 3. It was so easy to maintain it though. Didn't have to think much in the way of food and I could hold it really easily. I could drop 2 extra pounds pretty easily...

Thank you all so much for your replies. I feel so much better now. I too have had terrible withdrawal symptoms from that drug. Very sluggish, tired, no motivation....not to mention sick to my stomach, headaches, VERY moody....worse than before I went on it. My neighbor knows a nurse and she...

I think you are my twin, Runner2, after reading this post inparticular. I have been doing the same thing and trying on clothes lately makes me want to cry. I have 5# I definatley need to loose and 3 more that I would like to. I am so mad at myself. I had myself totally set this time last...

What the hey is a BOSU????? Never heard of one before...just curious. It sounds very interesting. Kim

Hi all. I was wondering if anyone else has had weight gain when weanning off of a drug such as Paxil or Zoloft. I am sooo frustrated. When I was on the meds I had no problem with my weight. Now, it seems my weight gain corresponds to my step down program. Is it just my imagination? I swear...

Hi Nicole. OMG!!!!! I have been having this exact same problem. I am sooooo incredibly frustrated. It seems that with myself, the more cardi I do, the more weight I seem to gain....and it is not good weight either. I do seem to be flabbier. I read on another post something like this....too...

Hi everyone. I just wanted to comment here. Women need body fat in order for our bodies to function properly. Some body fat on women is good. Just because someone is very slim, with "no" body fat does not make them healthy. My sister-in-law is very thin, hardly any body fat and she is so...
