    Weight loss question

    My son has kidney problems too - could you please be more specific about your problem? His kidneys cannot retain sodium so I have to salt all of his food and make sure he gets enough to drink because he also does not concentrate his urine. His kidneys constantly make urine whether he is...

    calorie counting?????

    Hi, I'd like to 2nd what Keta and the others said. I try to always read Keta's posts because she has wonderful ideas on what to eat and how to eat sensibly. I am 5'5, about 130 lbs and I am eating between 1700 and 2200 calories per day depending on my activities for the day and am losing...

    What do you love about Cathe?

    LAST EDITED ON Jul-11-02 AT 07:21PM (Est)[p]I am glad this thread was revived. I didn't get a chance to post when it started. I agree with everything people have said. She makes me work harder than I ever thought I could, love her sense of humor, love the fact that she has personally answered...

    Weight Gain on pill?

    I'm with Bootyquake - I take Yasmin, its a fairly new one, I think. No weight gain, cravings are not out of control, no cramps, some bloating but not like I used to have. I have really bad mood swings and this pill is a lot better than any other I've ever been on. I also have a history of...

    I'm sorry - just one more Powerstrike question!

    Hi, I just pre-ordered Powerstrike Millenium 3 and ordered 1 and 2 also from CKSales. www.cksales.com Their prices are in Canadian dollars so I think its a bit cheaper if you live in the U.S.

    Suggestions please!

    My advice is to take the segments from your videos and make ( X )number of 10-15 minute total ab workouts. Include upper and lower abs, obliques and plank work for the lower back in each workout. That would be ideal as far as I am concerned. I have no ideas about chaptering DVDs as I do not...

    Cathe please reply to this

    Hi Edith, I was just asking in general if anyone knows if it is the CTX All Step Video - I wasn't implying that you were a beginner by any stretch of the imagination! I hope I didn't offend you. It just concerned me that beginners were picking up the step and video at K-Mart and Cathe isn't...

    music in Powerhour

    I love that song during the biceps too! The music in Power Hour is the best - loud enough to hear but soft enough to hear Cathe and soo motivating. I am hoping for Power Hour II also, I can't get enough of that tape!

    Cathe please reply to this

    There are a lot of complaints in the "Suggestions for Cathe's new videos" section about the video being too difficult for beginners. I would never recommend Cathe to a beginner or some one who has never stepped before so I was wondering of it was CTX All Step being sold with the step or an...

    RE: powerstrikes vs. tae bo Thanks Stacy - you just sold me on Powerstrikes. Just have to wait until DH gets a bonus now - the only videos I have budgeted to order this year are Cathe's new ones. Unless I can sneak them in somehow...oh, well, Christmas is coming, LOL. Thanks again for the...

    RE: powerstrikes vs. tae bo Donna - or anyone else who knows - How do Powerstrikes compare to Aaron Lankford's Power Kicks? He is pretty much low impact with punching and kicking which I love. I don't like to bounce around all the time and have a lot of choreography. I want to focus on my...

    New strength videos

    I second Robin's reaction - tears, jumping up and down, etc. I am going to wake my boys up from their naps if I'm not careful! I will preorder ANYTHING Cathe does!!

    Cathe - Thanks for the reply - I can't wait! (I always get a little thrill when I see your name on a post - I am pathetically starstruck :)). Have a good one! Tami

    All CTX Videos Available Separately

    Hi SNM, Are you planning on releasing an upper body compilation of the CTX series on VHS also? Please say yes, my husband will never let me get a DVD player and I would love an upper body endurance video to compliment Leaner Legs!

    Increase in bust??

    Trevor - my husband feels the same way. My small breasts are fine with him and a well-toned body is what he finds attractive, exactly as you described. Large breasts turn him off - especially if they aren't real and it is obvious. No breast enhancement in my future, LOL.

    not eating enough?

    I agree with Honey bunch - I am 5'5, 128 lbs and I work out only 5 days per week. 3 cardio and 2 weight training sessions (focusing on endurance for a while) per week. I eat between 2000 and 2800 calories per day and can maintain, no problem. If I went below 2000 calories per day I would lose...

    Barbell versus Weights

    I've never had a barbell for the simple reason I have nowhere to put it, LOL. I use dumbbells for all exercises. It makes sense to me because I can use 12 lb dumbbells for squats, I only use 8's for tall box climb and lunges, 12's for biceps, 8's for triceps... I could never complete MIS with...

    New Firms

    Hi, I traded for them on VF, watched them once and promptly traded them again. They are unmotivating, not at all fun and quite frankly, Cathe does a much better job. I actually like the FIRM and use them in my rotations but I could not see myself doing these. The instructors rarely smiled and...

    Step ups: How high?

    I always use the 14 inch box DH made me for my FIRM videos. I am 5'5 but have short legs and a long torso. I also use it for seated upperbody work in the PS series because my full length step (also homemade) is an unadustable 6 inches. I feel as if I am sitting on the floor unless I use it.
