    Anyone stayed in Playa del carmen

    What a funny coincidence! We are going for a week, starting Oct 1st. We booked through Liberty Travel. They were having a special a couple months ago, but we really didn't benefit from it because we decided to book an ocean front room. I think the regular rooms were being offered at a pretty...

    Anyone stayed in Playa del carmen

    Funny you should ask...I am going to Playa del Carmen the first week in October and I am staying at the all inclusive, adults only "The Royal in Playa del Carmen". The place sounds fabulous. Here's the web site: http://www.realresorts.com.mx/The_Royal_Playa_Carmen/ When are you going...

    Is anyone NOT ordering STS?

    I preordered way back in the beginning, but due to a bad back injury, I canceled. I ruptured a disk in my back, and even though I'm now doing very well, I've been advised against lifting really heavy weights. Plus, things like deadlifts/dead rows are out for me, as are leg exercises where you...

    help-cat not eating enough?

    I'd honestly be more worried that her loss of appetite and her drinking a lot of water might mean she's got some other health issue. If her eating doesn't improve soon, I'd take her to the vet for blood and urine tests. On the other hand, loss of appetite can actually be a symptom of...

    Which Cardio Coach is best for a....

    Tanya. Every single cardio coach works well on a recumbant bike. If you are new to CC, you might want to start with volumes 1 through 3 (3 being my favorite on the bike). Volumes 4 & 5 are next in terms of difficulty. The longest and hardest volumes are 6, 7 and (I presume) 8. I have both...

    Body fat % measurement

    I had the exact same thing happen. If you go just by my weight and height, my BMI is around 22%. However, I had the same test done as you did (with the strap and activity level assumptions) two months ago, before I herniated a disc in my back, and my BMI was 24% (my activity level was a 4...

    3 more days to D-Land!

    Hey, I'm going to Disneyland next week too! I live in PA, but my sister and her family live in L.A. We are going Disneyland for my nephew's fifth b-day which is next Wed. I have a back injury so I can't do anything more than walk around, but I can't wait to see everything through the eyes...

    Pre-Order Extras?

    If memory serves me correctly (and I'm not 100% sure that it does), I think the green band was an Amy Bento extra. Shelbygirl

    I FOUND HER!!! I FOUND HER!!!!

    I just love stories with happy endings! That's great news. I'm sure she's just as excited to be back as you are to have her. Enjoy each other's company. Take Care, Shelbygirl

    This is the STRANGEST thing--ever happened to you?

    Cool Whip should have a plastic sealer around the lid. I'm assuming the one you bought had been unsealed. Stay away from anything that has no seal. What a bummer. No matter how good berries are, when you have a Cool Whip craving, naked berries just won't cut it! So, to recap, look for...

    Hernia???

    I can almost guarantee it's not a pinched nerve. Usually with pinched nerves, you'll feel pain in your butt down to your leg (if you pinched a nerve in your lower back) or in your shoulders/arm (if you pinched a nerve in your neck). Yeah, I'd get checked out soon. Hope you are weel soon...

    Losing Pets

    Rhonda, I am so sorry for your loss. It sounds like you absolutely did the right thing. The poor baby was suffering but is at peace now. I lost my own sweet 15 year old kitty last fall, and I swear, next to losing a close family member, it was the saddest thing I ever experienced. You...

    I'm a Bit Bummed...Had To Cancel Pre-Order

    Just needing to whine a little...I canceled my STS pre-order. I have a badly herniated disc in my lower back and I really don't think I'll be lifting for a while (let alone lifting heavy). Right now, I'd be happy if I could do a simple Leslie Sansome video! Oh well, crap happens. At least...

    Pre-ordered early but sustained an injury...

    Sorry to hear about your injury. I'm sort of in the same boat, but with a different injury. Three weeks ago I injured my back and found out I have one bulging disc and one ruptured disc in my lower back (like one bad disc wasn't enough). Right now I can't even do a Leslie Sansome DVD, let...

    Who HASN'T ordered STS?

    I ordered STS and was really excited about it until I herniated one disc and tore another. I have no idea when I'll be able to lift again, let alone lift heavy (which I love to do, by the way). So, rather than watch all those lovely STS DVDs gather dust for god-knows-how long, I think I might...

    STS and Herniated Disc

    I posted this in the STS Forum, but it was suggested I post here too so here goes... Hello Fellow Cathe Fans. I've been very excited about STS. Unfortunately, it looks like I have a herniated disc (based on an x-ray showing disc space narrowing, sciatica pain, foot numbness and loss of...

    STS and Herniated Disc

    Hello Fellow Cathe Fans. I've been very excited about STS. Unfortunately, it looks like I have a herniated disc (based on an x-ray showing disc space narrowing, sciatica pain, foot numbness and loss of muscle use in my calf). I won't get the results of my MRI until next week, but assuming...
