Mine are also on the UPS truck!! But then, according to UPS tracking, they have been for over 24 hours now!!! Obviously, "Out for Delivery" means something different here in Taiwan than it does in the USA!!! I just wish they would get here.... (Can you tell I am VERY impatient at this...

I've got a whole lot of extra CIAs! I once placed an order for something like 17 tapes from CIA. For reasons too complicated to go into here the box was delayed, so Greg sent out a whole new batch. I did eventually get both boxes, so now have duplicates of a bunch of tapes!! I gave most of...

Do you mind telling me the weights Cathe used for PLB?? I don't have my DVDs yet (WAAHHH) but I want to do this workout first. I usually use about he same weight that Cathe uses on legs, so what weights would you recommend that I use?? Thanks!!

I don't have mine yet (I'm waiting for DVD), but from what I have read, it sounds like the DVDs will have tons of options for those days when we just don't have time. For example, there will be pyramid up only, and a pyramid total-body one-hour workout. There will be just the cardio sections...

OK - here is my all-time worst day... My husband and I spent a year riding our bicycles around the Indian subcontinent. So - most of the time our meals were REALLY pathetic!!! Like eating at horrible truck stops on the side of the road, or frequently only bananas and Coke - whatever we could...

Two words - BE CAREFUL!!! I have struggled with anemia all my life. I eat well, so there is no logical reason that I should be anemic. But, I am. I have learned to live with it. However, it can be really dangerous. I once stood up too fast and started to black out. Now that happens to me...

Why is size 6 always the "standard" for being thin?? I am six feet tall and am extrmely large boned. I don'think I would fit in to size 6 even I was extremely anorexic!!! Size 12 is the smallest I would EVER think of putting this body in!!! There are lots of different bodies in this world....

WooHoo!!! I've been waiting years for Cathe to use weights to kick the abs up a notch. This is gonna be GREAT!!!!

RE: To Donna / Getnfit@38 I know I am in the minority, but I use the scale as a good tool. I don't obsess about the number since I know that my weight can fluctuate up to 5 - 7 pounds in one month. (I actually weigh myself every morning and graph it so I can watch the monthly fluctuations -...

I used to do step 5 or 6 days/week - for about 2 or 3 years, and never had any problems. Now I try to get in strength and kickboxing, so I don't do as much. But - I think it is a personal thing - what bothers one person will not bother someone else. Try it and see how your body does!!!

You can use it SOOOOO many ways!! I bought a few cookbooks with tons of recipes - the one I like best is "I Can't Believe This Is Tofu" (or some such name) Lots of recipes that are really good!!!

RE: Thanks, Jillybean I agree - stay away!!! Despite having read all the warnings and horror stories, I still started taking them. I will admit that I didn't have any of the awful side afects that a lot of people have, and I felt really good taking them - I had lots of energy, etc... I...

Can I join you girls??? I've recently started WW and have lost 2.5 so far. I do REALLY good during the week, but weekends are HARD!!!! It seems that as soon as the structure of my job goes away, so does the structure of my eating!! Anyway, I am currently at 197.5 lbs, and want to lose about...

I really enjoy Pilates, but just couldn't handle the Winsor set. I bought the first 5 tapes based on rave reviews from so many people. I can't cope with the ssslllloooowwww pace she has. Mari goes in to such incredible detail on how to position your body - and she does it on EVERY single tape...

RE: The tall people fight back! LAST EDITED ON Oct-07-02 AT 03:39AM (Est)[p]I'm tall too - 6 feet with a 35" inseam. I can keep up with Cathe on the step no problem - well, I get a bit tired, but that is because I don't do her tapes often enough to build up hte endurance...... I don't think...

Thanks!!! That's EXACTLY what I hoped you were going to say. CTX DVD - here I come!!!

I'm confused. At one point, you mention that the free shipping on existng DVDs (with a preorder) is for USA customers only, but then you have the following: "International Customers: Due to the high cost of shipping (usually well above what we charge), we can not ship partial orders. Your...

I'm just wondering why you don't use weights for your abs sections. You use weights for every other part of the body, but then you put them all away before your abs segments. Is it not safe to use weights for abs, or is it not very effective, or why????

Thanks Cathe!! I can appreciate how hard it is to try to break such a quick move into itty bitty parts!!! I've really tried to do exactly what you are saying - but as soon as I land on the heels I feel it jarring all the way up. Will I cause an injury landing on the balls of my feet over...
