I'm confused about the estrogen patch. My ob/gyn gave me some samples of Vivelle-Dot patches, which deliver 0.075 mg/day. He gave me these because I mentioned that I have experienced minor problems in between my monthly cycles. Those problems include moodiness, fatigue, extreme urges to eat...

After reading these posts about the BC/ME bonus combo, I decided to try that one today. I barely made it through the squats and lunges, but it was lots of fun! Thanks for the inspiration and motivation to try something new!

Imax 2 is one of my very favorites--you won't be disappointed!

Forgot to mention--you don't need a lot of space in the workout.

I love Low Max! It is one of my top favorites of Cathe's, and even though it's low impact, you will work! It's so much fun to do, too, and I like the music a lot. HTH

Odd question, I know--but where is a good place to find a Little Orphan Annie doll, hopefully new? I've looked on Ebay, but most of those look weathered and worn. My second grade daughter is in the play Annie, Jr. this week, and I wanted to surprise her at the last performance on Saturday...

Thanks so much, everyone, for your input on what to buy at Collage. I'm going to preview the workouts you mentioned right now. My gift certificate is burning a hole in my pocket! Have a great Monday. Valerie

Thanks for your input, Jonahnah. One question: How complex is the choreography in Amy's Hi Low Knockout? I like interesting, mildly complex choreography--for example, I love all of Cathe's choreography and find it challenging but very doable. How hard is the choreography on this workout in...

Hi, all you educated exercisers! I recently received a gift certificate to Collage Video for $130, and I would love your input on what to choose. I already own all of the Cathe workouts that Collage offers, so I am trying to find other instructors' workouts that I would enjoy as much as...

The laser procedure I'm having in the morning costs $250. I don't know how much the saline treatment costs. Also, I didn't research the effectiveness of saline vs. laser treatments. I like the idea of not using needles on my veins. I will report back after the treatment and let you know how...

Have any of you ever had your spider veins removed by laser?I'm having mine on my legs done in the morning and wanted to see if anyone had any helpful hints. If you have had this done, did you wear your support pantyhose for six weeks (as recommended by my doctor)? Did you have to stay off your...

They're easy to bake. The tastiest way is in a 400 degree oven, but it takes close to an hour to bake. I wash mine, rub the outside with a tiny bit of oil, poke a few holes in it with a fork, and put it on the middle rack of the oven. Don't cover it with foil; just put it right on the rack...

I'm in charge of a family breakfast at my kids' school next week, and the school's coffee makers have died. I've been researching large coffee makers on line, and I have read some not-so-great reviews of many of them. I know the people on these forums are always a great source of info, so...

I love CK! I find it full of variety with the medium-intensity first, then the high-intensity, then the leg and arm drills. I also look forward to almost the end of the w/o when she gets the two guys to come to the front--for "motivation," she says!! I do this one once a week usually. I think...

Nancy, I hope all goes well with your test. Having it at 4 pm after fasting all day the day before seems like a really long time to wait--I guess you can't move the appt. to that morning? Anyway, good luck to you. I had to take a bunch of these huge pills to get cleaned out when I had mine...

I don't like "This Christmas" (I think that's the name of the song). I hear it all the time. I also can't stand any whiney renditions of classic songs. I love Bing Crosby and David Bowie's version of "Little Drummer Boy/Peace on Earth." Happy holidays, everybody! Valerie

Imax 2 is my favorite workout, too! The music is great, and there's enough variety to keep me interested and motivated. I can only get in about 13 or 14 of the straddle taps, even though I try hard to get all 16! My favorite blast is probably #9. I love the "Pina Colada" song!! I think I'll...
