    Anyone from North Dakota?

    I agree with you about the sub-zero temps! Oy. It's already cold here, IMO. And it's only November..... I.hate.being.cold. Glad to see there is someone else who is from ND, even if you don't live here currently! Montana is beautiful! :D

    Anyone from North Dakota?

    I know! Scheels is a fun place to shop anyway, but when they started to carry products from Cathe's line-up they became infinitely cooler! :p I need to go over there one of these days and see if they carry the little pink band to do the firewalkers.

    Youngest and oldest Cathletes!

    I am 31. I've been doing Cathe workouts for 7 years, since 2004. I credit Walmart and Collage Video for introducing me to Cathe. I bought her small size step from Walmart and my first DVD (Lowmax!) from College Video. I've been a devout cathe fan ever since. I've tried other instructors and IMO...

    Average Weight Gain

    It all comes off .... if you work at it. That's what I tell myself anyway. Don't compare yourself to others who only gain 15 pounds and lose it a week later. I know. Easier said than done. I have 3 kids. Gained a lot with all of them. I ate really well with my second baby and I still gained a...

    Short Shirt Phenomenon??

    I have 3 kids and I noticed this as well! Haha! So glad I'm not the only one who has experienced this. :D I'm still working on losing weight from baby #3 ... but after baby #2 I was in the best shape of my life, and even then my pre-preggo shirts were short. What gives?! Oh, well..... an...

    workout manager has given me a proverbial kick in the butt

    I've been on a hiatus from exercising due to pregnancy and laziness. I haven't had any sort of a routine since Sept '09 ..... but now thanks to the calendar function on workout manager I'm back on the wagon!!! I love plugging in my completed workouts on the calendar. Seeing the little picture...

    Baby turned breech at 40 weeks

    A little late on posting this ... but thought I'd share as well. I find it's always nice to hear about others who have been in the same boat. :) I was 3 days from my due date and my daughter was head down. A week later (4 days overdue) she was breech. My doctor tried to do an aversion and...

    McDonald's Fruit and Maple Oatmeal

    So glad someone has tried their oatmeal! Now I know it's worth getting. Maybe I'll splurge on that next time I'm at the drive-thru ...instead of a Mocha Frappe. :p

    Any new finds on a good concealer for dark circles?

    So happy to see this question posted about concealer. :D I, too, have bad under-eye circles. Still trying to find that *magic* concealer that covers them beautifully. I'm definitely going to check out some of those suggestions. Thanks!!

    Some of my favorite things.....(just for fun)

    1. My professional FHI blowdryer. 4-5 minutes and I'm done. With the time I save blowdrying, I have more time to clean my house .... uhhhhh. ;) 2. Electric Blanket. Only way I can survive North Dakota winters. 3. Astrostart. Only way I can survive North Dakota winters. 4. North Face...

    What is the saddest movie you've ever seen

    I was going to be novel and say "PS, I Love you," but I see that's already been mentioned ...... so I'll just add my two cents, talk about a tear-jerker!! :( I wish I could think of more (that haven't already been mentioned), but I can't. Maybe I'll come up with something later .... :p

    dietary change

    What has worked for me is: -keeping a food diary -eating clean (for the most part) -not eating after dinner (when I tend to go overboard on treats) -sticking to my workouts (6 days a week on average) -having just protein and a vegetable for dinner and eating my carbs earlier in the day --Kara--

    Can anyone do the Imax's all the way through without stopping?

    I only own Imax 2 and Imax 3. I can do them both all the way through, but there are days I can't. ;) Ha! I'm with Heather. I suggest running, as well, as a way to build up endurance. I, too, was not a runner (high school track dropout!), but last summer I started incorporating runs into my...

    how do you begin to get the mind set...

    Something simple that I have found to work for myself, when I'm craving something not-so-clean, is repeating: "You can have a treat. Just not today." It sounds simple, but this has worked for me. If it helps you (or anyone else), great! :p

    Facebook an online shop for thieves

    I think it's good to be cautious on Facebook (and with anything else internet related). I'm also on facebook, but I have my privacy settings set as such that only my "friends" can see what I post. I also have it set up so no one can search for me. I don't understand people who put their phone...

    Where do you eat out with healthy meals?

    I like to look at a particular restaurant's website prior to going out. This way at least I have an idea of what I'm getting myself into. :D Dennys - they have a lighter chicken breast entree (the calories are listed on the website I believe). IHOP - they also have low-cal choices with the...

    So what is your favorite hobby?

    As a Mom of two I've found I can only have really "one" hobby (timewise, moneywise, etc)... and that would be scrapbooking. I'm addicted to say the least. I love that it's a combination of two things I really love (taking photos and *trying* to be creative). I also rest easy knowing when I'm 90...

    CATHE GEAR AT SCHEELS!!!

    Yes! We have Cathe gear at the Scheels here in Fargo, North Dakota, too!! My only complaint is that the store only sells the pink & green aerobic step (not the COOL black and grey step). I've been crushing on the larger aerobic steps for a while, but it looks like I'll have to order it from...
