    Calories per day poll

    Thanks for your replies. It helps me to find out what other people are doing. I know it's very individual, but still . . . I'm getting a bit frustrated with myfitnesspal telling me every day that I'll reach my goal in 5 weeks. It's been saying that since January, so I'm obviously not doing...

    Calories per day poll

    For those of you who track your calories, approximately how many calories/day do you consume? I know that every body is very different, and I also know that there have been similar posts, but I'm curious. So, just for fun, chime in if you want. Things to include might be height, age, body...

    Pre-workout snack/meal/supplement?

    I like a smoothie with protein powder, 1/2 a banana, and spinach. This gives me enough energy to make it through a workout without feeling heavy or upsetting my stomach.

    How do you stop your child from picking at scabs?

    The only thing that worked for me was putting a band-aid over the area.

    Poll: Best rotation?

    Have you checked out Cathe's newest April and May "getting ready for summer" rotations? I went from the X-Train 90 day undulating to the April rotation and plan on moving to the May and June rotations when I finish April's. I'm not really losing weight, but I am losing fat! I'm also tracking...

    I'm very jealous--in a good way!

    Slanted risers

    I like having mine, but I got them years ago for something like $25 or $30. I don't think they are necessary. They do feel really stable, however.

    Were you wearing your Little Orphan Annie secret decoder pin?

    Dulse - why did the price go up?

    ... It's the fishy taste that I don't care for with seaweed (or does fish taste like seaweed...? deep thoughts!) ....and even more important do fish see weeds:p? :D:p:rolleyes: Nancy, you made my morning!

    Dulse - why did the price go up?

    Excellent advice. Since I've moved, I'm not familiar enough with the ethnic/import groceries in the area. I will have to do more research. I had purchased the "Marine Coast" brand based in Maine. Their website says the following: "Due to a number of factors, our supplies of certain...

    Any Runners out there?

    Here's a good thread: http://cathe.com/forum/f97/following-cathes-rotation-running-287092/ Hopefully Jenn (jdimascio) will chime in. She's my running guru.:D

    Dulse - why did the price go up?

    Whoa! I wanted to order some more dulse on Amazon, and the price has gone up by over $11 from when I ordered last year (Marine Coast Dulse pack of 6). Does anyone buy dulse, and where do you get yours? Thanks!

    Heart Rate Monitor

    Hopefully someone will give you a correct answer, because I cheated. :o It voids the warranty to replace them yourself, but that's what I ended up doing--I couldn't stomach the cost to send it away. I just ordered the right batteries on "batterybob.com" and replaced them myself. It's really...

    Heart Rate Monitor

    I have a Polar F4 that I've had FOREVER (okay, it's been about 8 years or more). When this one dies (if ever) I'll get an F6. I did replace the chest strap because it came with the old one that was sealed and you had to send it in to be replaced because you couldn't replace the battery...

    Apple Cider Vinegar

    I've tried it straight, but much prefer it diluted. Has anyone tried Vitacost's store brand? It says it's organic with the 'mother' like Bragg's. One reviewer said it was just as good. I was learning towards trying it because you can get free shipping for $25 if it's their store brand.

    Perspiration Inspiration! - Sweat Activated T-Shirts

    I think the shirts look awesome and are a fun idea, but not something I will purchase. I have a bit of a different opinion, for what it's worth. While I do work out in wicking t-shirts, mine are cheap ($5 Danskin from Wal-Mart). My running shirts are nicer (technical fabric and cool colors)...

    Whey Protein

    Thank you for your review of the Natural Factors Whey Factors. I already had it lined up for subscribe and save delivery for May. I'm excited to try it. For me, the ingredients are more important than the taste. I wish the Muscletech from Sam's Club wasn't full of artificial stuff. It's too...

    Apple Cider Vinegar

    I try to have it 2-3 times a day with stevia. I'm out right now. I like to buy the gallon of Bragg's. Does anyone know a good place to get it? It's too expensive at my local health food store. Amazon doesn't have any with super-saver shipping right now. Where do you get yours.

    X-Train and Weight Gain?

    Funny that this post popped up again. I forgot I had written it--proof that things do get better with time. ;) I can't comment on Weight Watchers, but I think some type of nutritional plan is definitely the key to success. I'm finished up my 90-day rotation. I had a setback with getting...
