    Too many dvds

    I have way, way too many dvd's myself. And I always just have to have the latest ones from Cathe, Beachbody, and the latest FIRM set. Even though I have too many I just can't part with them. In fact if I had a fire they would be the one thing I would try to get out of the house (we have no...

    What's gonna happen to me when I stop using Splenda?

    How about switching to Truvia or another stevia based sweetener? That way you could have the sweet flavor from a more natural source.

    scar tissue

    I have a lot of scar tissue from several surgeries. While the scars never go away once I started working with a good massage therapist they totally changed. They are no longer hard and ropy with a lot of adhesions. The scars we worked on most are doing really really well. So if you can find...

    The Firms new workout

    I caved and ordered them. I think they will be awesome not only on their own, but as a precursor to Insanity.

    The Firms new workout

    I am intrigued by this. I have been hearing about the research they are talking about and this type of workout. I am such a video junkie I may just go ahead and order them. Must. Have. Dvd's.

    Help!!! I'm inhaling my kitchen!!!

    I have also had a hormonal IUD for over 5 years and have had no periods or any pms since then. Before that I had the exact same problems. I used to call the days before my period my "hollow leg" days not the mention the migraines I always had at ttom. I am glad that I am no longer in that...

    Help:weight training DVD for "seniors"?

    Good luck with your mother. It sounds like she is very active and it is so wonderful that she is at a point where she is willing to add strength training. It sounds like she is already doing an awesome job keeping her cardio up. I just love working with seniors as they tend to be so committed...

    Will Spinning Hurt My Feet?

    I am going to be the dissenting opinion here. I also am a Spinning instructor and I have injuries to the balls of both of my feet. Spinning makes my feet nuts. In fact I have had to give up all spinning since my injuries this summer. I have tried it both with spinning shoes and in a fit of...

    Cardio before or after weight training

    I recently heard a really interesting take on this question. It is generally thought that it takes about 20 minutes for the body to start burning fat as a fuel source. So if you do your strength training before you do your cardio your body will be able to utilize more fat as a fuel source...

    People who make smacking sound when eating

    DH makes the most unusual (loud) chewing noises. He chews with his mouth closed but somehow gets the air to mix into his food while he is chewing and it almost pops with each bite, like those people who chew gum that crackles with each chomp. In fact you can hear it above just about anything...

    So bummed

    Thank you all for your well wishes. I am feeling much better. As long as I don't do anything crazy like try to clean or carry a purse I am fine. I figure in a week or so I will be good as new. Until then at least I can walk for exercise.

    So bummed

    I got my new dvd's on Monday and planned to start on Tuesday afternoon. Unfortunately I was rear-ended yesterday and have minor whiplash. I know I will be fine in a few days, but as I am here previewing my new workouts I am getting really antsy. This accident really illustrates how very...

    Always Tired

    I got my chia seeds at getchia.com. DM and I split 12 pounds of chia seeds and we each have 2-3 Tbsp each day . I put them in my oatmeal as well as my smoothies and sometime I mix them in my smooth peanut butter. Actually I have sort of a powerhouse oatmeal recipe. I mix: 1/2 cup of quick...

    Always Tired

    This is going to sound very random, but.... I used to be tired all the time then I incorporated chia seeds into my diet. Within a week or so I felt much better. Now I am about 6 weeks in and my life is vastly different. I didn't change anything else so I attribute it to the chia seeds. DM...
