I have two daughters that are 18 and 19. So we've been through the age you are talking about. I think the suggestions offered by others (well supervised, parts of the house off limits, etc) are good. I have allowed my daughters to have these kind of get togethers in the 13-14 age range. I was...

You know, it amazes me that people actually do eat that way. Given all the information out about nutrition. Frequently, my older teen daughters will come home from friend's houses and tell me the friends had nothing to eat at their house. They tell me it's all junk, just what you described...

I could not go with Sideways. I hated the plot that two men were going out to wine country so the guy that was going to get married could basically cheat on his wife to be. I'm not a big wine enthusiast so I didn't get a lot of the references to wine. I asked my husband to shut it off less than...

Your statement that you don't have a lot of space in your workout room tells me that Tracey's Cardio Sweatfest would work well for you. It is what I would consider a true boxing workout. She doesn't throw in jumping jacks or other aerobic moves. She focuses on boxing/kicking combinations. You...

I wanted to comment on this because I have noticed that I am suddenly a size 2 or 4. I was thinking the exact same thing. WTH??? I'm not a 2 or 4! I am frustrated as well because I used to be able to buy pants off the rack without alteration or even trying them on. No longer am I able to do...

We did a winter snowmobiling trip to Yellowstone several years ago. That was a neat trip but man I don't think I've been so cold in my life! Anyway, we stayed at the Holiday Inn that is outside the park entrance. We liked it there. Our room had a hot tub which was nice after freezing my butt...

Oh this topic is so timely! My husband and I were playing tennis recently and there was a woman who had such strong perfume on that we could smell it all the way over on our court! We were even at outdoour courts!! I can't imagine being very near this person like in a gym setting. Yuck! I felt...

My daughter discovered a really great mascara that makes lashes stand out without being clumpy. Lash Stylist by Maybelline. I tried it and loved it. I also saw it mentioned in Health magazine as a good buy for great looking lashes.

I went to Belize a few years ago. We stayed at Ramon's on Ambergris Caye. It is a beautiful place and there is a lot to do there in terms of water sports. Snorkeling, sunset cruises, etc. We took a boat tour to some Indian ruins where we hiked and climbed up a temple. That was really neat. We...

I used to wear shorts exclusively. I wore Champion's compression shorts. I think that's what they were called. They were excellent at supporting my muscles and would probably help with your muscle pull. However, I don't think they make those short anymore. I have since started to switch my...

I have tried so many different kinds of sneakers. I keep trying to like Rykas and I have a pair of the N-Gage that are out right now. I also have a pair of the Enlight that I bought. For some reason, I just find that Rykas seem to break down on me and stop supporting my foot too quickly. In...

I'm a big NAY on this one! I can't go with the contrast of the light stockings with black shoes at all... You know black workout shoes? I bought a pair of Ryka Enlight II on sale. They are super comfortable on my foot. Probably fit my foot the best of any shoes I've ever worn. For some...

RE: Oh my gosh! I have felt the same way about this season and this last episode. Did Jack really think he was going to just walk out the door? Ummm... duh! And what's with the Russian guard who went into the other room to call CTU but left the door open with his back to it? I've found myself...

The Pussycat Dolls are a group of young women who used to do a burlesque show and somehow they made a record. I don't know if any of you all have ever seen them actually sing but only like two of them can sing. The lead singer and then I think one or two others. The rest of them just dance...

I have to add to this thread too! I just found this site and have placed a couple of orders. Wow! The shipping was super fast, good packaging and her communication if a DVD isn't available is great! I will definitely order from this site in the future. joycet

My biceps were so sore after doing that workout for the first time that I could barely move my arms. It hurt to bend them! :-) Now that I've done the workout several times, it's not as bad but wow! that first time killed me so I can sympathize with how you felt! Joyce

I have one of these and I like it. It works just as well as a ball without the legs and doesn't roll away when I set it down. I would think it would work fine on your floor. Anyway, just wanted to say I use this type of ball and it's fine. Joyce

RE: Can you do the one-legged hamstring raises on the stability ball that Cathe and her insanely smiling crew do in PLB? Can you do them on the mini-step? Do ya like doing them??? I can do them as well but my leg definitely feels like it is going to fall off too! What a burner of an exercise...

Another congratulations on the birth of Kelly! I am sure you will get Kelly on the right schedule soon! Take care, Joyce

I definitely would prefer to focus on Upper Body in this workout and save my legs for the step aerobic portions!! I feel there are a lot of good leg workouts available and not enough good Upper Body with cardio videos. My vote goes to focusing on Upper Body strengthening in the weight...
