"In the end, it IS your fault and until you accept responsibility for your own self, with an eye on permanent change, you're living in Fantasyland." Stacey D, I love your post! But what you said above, hits the nail on the head exactly!!! Gayle, what's really sad, is millions of...

Hi Sandra, I just wanted to tell you how inspiring you are!! Great job at losing and maintaining. I have about 100lbs to lose and have finally kicked the word "diet" out of my vocabulary and am learning to eat clean - I've been exercising for about 2 years now; goes to show how important...

I think I understand what you are saying. I am currently overweight by about 100lbs, and no I don't like it, but my self-destructive patterns of weightloss/weightgain have been keeping me in hermit mode. I used to be so outgoing, tons of friends, always going out, had boyfriends - but once I...

Maybe if they weren't twittering or facebooking (?) they wouldn't be at work til 5:30 :) I'm on facebook, but only because a lot of my family and friends are and that is where they post their pictures. But some of my friends, now keep sending me those damn games, quizzes, etc. :rolleyes:

That was hilarious and so true!! :D

Yesterday I was given a link for a fantastic you-tube video showing 3 excellent exercises for this - the no. 4 stretch was two of them (done different ways). The pain is almost gone already - though it does come back at bit. Atleast I can stand up, sit down, and walk without pain, most of the...

Me too!! I'm so mad at myself because I was finally at a point where I could do the whole workout again, aarrggh!! It is painful, and the worst part is that sometimes I'll find a position so I can't feel the pain, so I'll forget about and start to move - and ouch!:mad:

Thanks Magda! These exercises are great! I can sure feel it.

Thanks Gayle! This has some great information.

Thank you so much everyone!! It helps to know that it is not as obscure as it seems to be - tho leave it to me to injure a muscle that I nor anyone I know has ever heard of!!! TG for this forum! You guys are awesome! Kirsten

Have any of you ever heard of the piriformis muscle? It is a small muscle under the gluteus maximus and the sciatic nerve passes immediately below the piriformis muscle (from the web).There is apparantly piriformis syndrome. Anyway, i think I injured/pulled/ripped it doing the dynamic outer...

Thanks to Tiggerlove, I found it, it is a Body-Solid Folding Multi-Bench GFID225. Kirsten

http://www.workoutideas.com/bofomu.html Here's the link if anyone else is interested - though if you type in the exact name, dashes and all, there are a lot of website that seem to carry it, that is just the first one that also had the model number in it.

I don't know how you did it, but when I looked it up I found some benches that were close, but this is definitely the exact one. Thank you!!!

SNM or Cathe or anyone who knows about weight bench Who makes the weight bench in the CatheTV episode 9? Thank you!

I wish I had never tried smoked salmon cream cheese, OMG, it is so good with pretzels, but I will eat the whole tub if I buy it, so it stays at the store :'(

Thank you! Clare, Thank you! I had not thought of it that way at all, but it makes total sense. I used to be a competitive swimmer, and I bet if I got back in the pool there is no way I could swim the way I used to first time in! Rapid Breath, I did the whole low max today with mini...

Thank you!! That was kind of what I thought, but wanted to make sure someone else thought that too! :) I have looked into the STS program, and it is currently on my wish list - hopefully I'll be able to get it in the next couple of months. Thanks for both of your advice! Kirsten

I apologize for this being so long! About 6 months ago I decided to join the gym for something different. I went 5 days a week, sometimes 6 or 7 depending on how I felt. For my cardio I, at first, alternated between the recumbant bike and the treadmill, but eventually went to only treadmill...

Thank you!! I'll check it out.
