Check out dove's website for their campaign for real beauty. http://www.campaignforrealbeauty.com/dsef/temp2.asp?id=4187 They may have some useful ways to help. When I was a teenager and overweight, I wanted to go on a ski trip with the high school team. My dad agreed that they would...

Robin, the cake sounds good! Is your son okay? Jeanette

*I hiccup only once *It sounds like a yappy dog *It is really LOUD *I've done it everyday for 4+ years (and no silly tricks like drinking upside down will stop it from occuring) *I obsessed about what Cathe DVD's to get *I got really mad when outbid on ebay *I finally broke down and bought...

I know it might sound cheesy...but instant lotto tickets. They are fun to scratch off and usually you end up winning a few bucks. Just an idea. I'm trying not to give "clutter" type gifts this year. I've asked for gift cards (including cathe's) and workout stuff. HTH Jeanette

Hello Everyone. My stomach is upset :( and has been since yesterday afternoon. I can't figure out what it was I ate. I've been journalling my food and there's nothing that jumps out. So of course I didn't sleep well last night and couldn't even think about doing "high step challange" like i...

I can't seem to find the actual numbers but I think Pete lost the equivalent to what Matt weighs NOW! WOW!!! Jeanette

Thanks, you too! I think the eating clean and healthy is a good start. If you get into the routine now it will be easier to curb those cravings (I hope!). Just think if you get stronger now and maintain that through the PG how much easier carrying around (and running after) a baby will be...

Janice, I was just thinking about posting the same thing! I'm not pregnant, nor have I ever been, but we are going to try sometime next summer/fall. I'm about 15 lbs heavier than where I would feel comfortable usually. My goal right now is just to focus on getting into good physical shape...

Hello All! I'm just starting on the coffee this morning while wondering if it will be boiling hot or freezing cold in my office today. This morning was Low Max which I did on a 6" step, but next time I think I'll try the 8", I really didn't feel like my heart rate was elevated enough. Only a...

I keep trying to measure, but they are jiggling too much!!!!

Hello Everyone! I had a very nice break and managed to stay on top of my eating and workouts. I relaxed yesterday and was really tired this morning so decided to do Low Impact Step. I figured it would be a no-brainer and I was right, I must have left my brain in bed because I was tripping...

my DH downloads songs from itunes and burns them to a cd. he then has to rip them from the cd to mp3 format. It's a bit of a pain but he hasn't found anything else that works well. HTH Jeanette

SNM, can gift certificates be used for pre-orders? TIA, Jeanette

I ran the other week and could barely walk for the next 4 days. My inner thighs ached and my hips were so sore. I think next time the rotation calls for running, I may just use the eliptical and not the treadmill. Jeanette

I'm just relaxing with a glass of bubbly waiting for the turkey to be done. I woke up around 8:30 planning on jumping into the workout but decided to enjoy the quiet before DH got up. I had a HUGE egg white omelet (needed the yolks for the dessert) and had a few cups of java with Pumpkin...

This morning was Imax 1 for me, which I was finally able to do without taking longer rest breaks and only modifing a few of the scissor jacks and the air jacks! Is your hip pain on the side/front/back? I like the stretch where you cross one leg over the other knee and pull back. That works...

Yikes! I guess you'll really have to wish for your two front teeth this x-mas!!! :7

Are you able to pay out of pocket to the dentist and then submit it to the insurance company? I know it's a hassel but you can at least see the same person you have been. That stinks that they wouldn't refer someone else. Jeanette

Just curious, as I'm trying NOT to make Thanksgiving only about eating.... I'm thankful that my DH loves me for who I am no matter how fit I am or how many times I check this forum in a day.... I'm thankful that I have rediscovered my will power to wake up at 5:30am and have Cathe tell me...

<Does anyone else find being with family draining?> YES!!! I have seen WAY TOO MUCH of my family this year. Both my sister and brother got married and there has been tons of other stuff. I am also trying to go through a personal change of being a better person and I fall into my old...
