    Excel question

    I've actually been teaching myself advanced excel to improve my skills in hopes that it helps me get a job. I know the basic's and some advanced work; I've been learning a lot from free tutorials on you tube. You can learn just about anything there. Here is a link for the "basic excel". autumn...

    New Thyroid Support group!

    I will check it out. I wonder if my inability to loose weight is more than eating too many cal's. I'm taking an rx and don't feel particularly bad, just can't loose the weight quickly, it's like pulling a cow up a hill with a shoe string. - autumn

    is it all about the cals?

    for me it's cal's. I thought if I workout hard enough and long enough I can eat what I want. Maybe that's the case if I'm an Olyimpian or when I'm at my goal weight, but the past 7 months or so I've workouted out and stared to loose weight until the summer or the end of it...it stopped. I didn't...

    What do you do to get re-motivated?

    I just pick my most fun dvd's on those days. It's hard to get started most of the time, but now I have a good assortment of dvd's to choose from - and doing the STS strength and it's changing my body makes me want to continue .... but once I get started I really am fine - I think once I started...

    I can't contain my excitement

    that is exciting. Wait til you get to meso 3. I loved meso 2 and love 3 just as much. I had a problem with a weight bench I bought though. It's fine for dumb bells, but not for bb's. I can't find one that holds a bb, and dh is looking to hook me up for valentines day. Hey, I like w/o stuff...

    How different is the STS to P90X?

    You know, hearing what Sandra said it sounds like the Barry's Bootcamp I got a really good deal on and bought .... I hate it. He doesn't do all the reps, walks around and points at the girls buts, he is annoying. He just creaps me out. I do use the bands it came with, but that's it. I might...

    Tell us about your STS results!

    strength gains I'm starting my 3rd wk of meso 4 today. I have to say there is one big difference I have to mention. When I was doing meso 2, I couldn't do boxing or kb after an sts upper body w/o. Now, I'm doing much heavier weights, and I can do it. I think that is incredible. I'm lifting the...

    How different is the STS to P90X?

    my opinion I'm at the end of STS and saw the commercials for P90X and thought it was way too intense. Where do you go from there? I would def take a week or two off to do lighter cardio and yoga and stop the weights to give you body a rest. But as far as STS, I think it's a more gradual...

    STS CHECK IN DISC 30

    Feel very strong, I like heavy weight work. I actually always wondered why I had such a hard time getting weights up with rear delt lifts until I heard Cathe mention this form pointer - about aiming them more to the back. I always had them go up straight to the sides. What a difference that...

    Thinking about moving

    Westchester county was voted # 2 in most expensive taxes. DH & I moved from Long Island, NY to East Tennessee a few yrs ago. We are so happy about it, and love it. It is so inexpensive to live here, foods about the same, but the weather is nicer and it's beautiful. If you think of moving to...

    Have u noticed on the biggest loser....

    It motivates me too. I am waiting on dh to hook up tv in gym (I just get dvd's and tapes now) so I can watch that and other shows while I jump on the ellipitical for an hour at night. It would work out well for me, but he's so busy now. I hope he'll do it soon. - A

    I need Help for My Sugar Addiction

    Sugar is my problem as well. As a matter of fact this week I have vowed to eliminate it from my diet. Not only is it causing me not to loose the weight I want, even though I exercise so much - but it makes me sick to my stomach. So does fake sugar - I'm adding more fruit to get it. I don't...

    I feel like I'm "cheating" on Cathe!

    LOL, I justify it to myself by saying, I'll do an easy dvd for this w/o, and also Cathe doesn't have yoga & Pilates, so I feel ok doing them. I basically only do a few Firms I like on easy days, with light weights but now w/ the new STS cardio, I like so many of them I'm finding it harder to...

    idea Could you split the time up? A few days alone and then you can be recharged to have a romantic few days away w/ dh. - Autumn

    Have u noticed on the biggest loser....

    I am big on good form when working out, thanks to Cathe - and have mastered a lot of exercises. I figure if I can do it, if your using the right weights, anyone can. Then why do the "best trainers in the tv bus" not teach the contestants good form. I get just getting the to w/o is a victory...

    What are you doing for Valentine's Day?

    tight budget We are on a tight budget (unemployed x 2) but we are just making it, just the 2 of us - so if I can save a little from the next few wks and cut back on groceries (which I usually buy @ 10 bucks more than we need anyway), then we can go to this great fish place I love. It has...
