Hogwash. However, do keep in mind that for women the elliptical should not be the only form of cardio, particularly if you have some of the risk factors for osteoporosis or if it runs in your family. I love the elliptical, but I force myself to walk on the treadmill occasionally for more...

Hi JM! I love Pliner. I just looked at all the shoes you mentioned. I love that t-strap look, but my feet are so flat and my instep so non-existent, the T-strap would be floating out in space above my foot. Darn. Now you guys have me interested in Born. I got my Zappo's package...

I heeded your warning and did not check out those shoes, Clare. But if I had taken just a peek, I would say that they were very pretty sandals but how do you wear a 3" heel? Do they feel more comfy than they look? So pretty!!

Sorry to enable Catherine! I'm also planning to buy another pair of Munros that look cute and yet feel like walking on clouds. I cannot believe how comfy they are given the high heel:

Okay, so far I've ordered these: Dansko Adele Dansko Sissy (not gorgeous, but make your legs look like they go on forever) Munro Traci for work

I highly recommend seeing a nutritionist. I saw someone as a birthday gift to myself about 6 years ago. She had me keep a diary of everything I ate for a week before we met. She was very good about keeping foods I loved (and coffee!!) in as part of my eating plan. She gave me a written...

It's okay, Janie. These days I buy only "comfort" sandals, which probably wouldn't tempt many of you. Still, I love 'em. :D

My feet are hard to fit and cold weather shoes are hard for me to find. But when the summer shoes come out, it's much easier for me to find a good fit and I can't stop shopping! I want it all! T-straps, slip-ons, clogs, platform, strappy, wedges. Just give me the credit card and nobody gets...

Bad for your teeth? How so?

Giving up wine helped a lot. I didn't mean to or want to give up wine, but it wasn't mixing well with the medications I was taking, so I had to let it go. Wine is empty calories, but in addition, when I drank it, it increased my appetite for other empty calories. My weight still fluctuates a...

I'm so with you on this, Nan! People think of me as a bit of a health nut and then they see me drinking Diet Coke. I feel like such a fool. I have cut back a lot over the years, though. I used to drink Caffeine Free Diet Coke all day long at work, and now I never drink it at work. I buy...

Awww, thanks you guys. Deb, I love your idea of making it an all-weekend celebration! :D

Thanks, MM! I'm ordering it right now.

Thanks so much guys! I had a very lovely day. Thanks my dear Miss Lee for remembering!

I do exactly the same thing.

I can't follow instructors to save my life, and have never done a single Cathe cardio workout, but nothing makes me happier than free-style dancing. I even dance on the TM at the gym to some extent. I envy those of you who can do Cathe's step workouts, but I swear I'm fairly graceful on the...

Has anyone else tried this? It's a dream come true on busy mornings when I want to wear a skirt, but it seems like it's gone in about 4 shaves. The solid skin conditioner is a block that surrounds the blade, but the bottom part washes away while the top part of the block doesn't seem to get...

Larabars. My desk drawer at work is full of 'em.

I wish I could stop looking to others for validation of my worthiness and just have it come from within.

Thanks. My parents used to subscribe to Prevention when I was young and it scared the living daylights out of me. Nowadays, however, it's more focused on the positive than the negative. Still, it was in a recent edition of Prevention that I read that a chemical called PFOA...
