    Getting definition in the legs?

    Hi There, I am wondering what you all have experienced to be the best way to get some real definition in your legs. I have some already, but a lot more in my upper body (thanks to Gym Styles!) My problem is this. I am used to going heavy (for me) with standing leg workouts. I use 50lb for...

    Where does it stop?

    Shelley, I just want to say that I am in the same boat as you. I have a really hard time seeing what everyone else does. I'm a size 4 sometimes a 2. I used to be a 16. Rationally I understand that I have lost a lot of weight and that I am in a small size. My problem is that I seem to only...

    Question about premixes and chaptering

    Hi there, I'm sure this has been asked a thousand times. Sorry! Do all of Cathe's DVD's have premixes and chaptering? I've started going the DVD route and will be replacing all my VHS tapes (Can't believe I didn't see how awesome dvd's are until now!) So, I would love to know if the...

    Zappos.com?

    By far, the best online shopping experience ever! I even wrote to them to say how great I thought they were, and I never do things like that. Good luck! :)

    broccoli florets.....

    Not sure if you'll think this sounds good, but I mix cottage cheese in with my steamed broccoli and add some pepper. It may sound weird, but oh it's so good. I also use frozen mixed vegetables from places like BJ's, Sam's or Costco and add those in as well. It's the perfect thing for me to...

    Aerobics Shoes

    RE: BQ and Caitlin! Caitlin, you sound like my twin!! I've been working out for over 15 years and also have an AFAA Personal Trainer cert. It was from when they first introduced it. I have the exact knee problem as you. I do Low Max on 8" and try not to jump. I get such a great workout on...

    Annapolis, MD

    Oh Cath, I'm so jealous!! DH is military and he works in DC. We live in MD, but not a part that I like. I would give anything to be in Annapolis. It is so quaint and nice. Great restaurants. It reminds me of Newport, RI a little bit. I am counting the days until we get to leave here. If I...

    Aerobics Shoes

    How funny that we are so easily swayed to buy stuff! Last week I did a search on here for something (not shoes) and somehow stumbled upon an old thread about workout shoes. Well, the Ryka Enlights were talked about. In the span of about 7 minutes I had read about them and then purchased them...

    Cathe, you inspired a fun shopping trip today :o)

    RE: Amy! Amy, I have to laugh. I just did Hardcore Extreme for the first time yesterday and thought, "Wow, Cathe looks adorable!" I loved her pony tail and didn't make the connection that it was a clip on. It looks so real! Those pics of you and your daughter are to die for!! What a lucky...

    What exactaly are sugar alcohols?

    Hi Everyone, I've seen these listed before on products but never knew what exactly they are. My Detour bars say there are 3g of sugar and 13g (I think g) of sugar alcohols. Are these a bad thing? I remember someone once telling me that products like sucralose (which is in Detour bars) have...

    Wrist pain - does anyone know what this might be?

    Hi Stebby, unfortunately I had (have) this in both wrists. I overtrained majorly in college and had to have numerous cortisone shots and wear these ugly white plastic splints all the time for about a month. I was stupid and waited to go to the doctor until the pain was severe. You are smart...

    How many calories do you eat a day?

    icklemoley, I am so with you. I wish I could feel full eating so little. I used to be able to eat a lot less (1800 cals a day), but since Cathe, there's just no way. I am so relieved to hear of women who are eating so much and maintaining! I guess that's what I've been doing these past few...

    How many calories do you eat a day?

    Wow! Thank you ladies!! I am so happy to hear that you are eating that much and maintaining! That makes my day! I knew I must not have been eating enough, but it's hard to get out of the weight loss mentality. That explains so much. I have felt so out of control for the past few months...

    How many calories do you eat a day?

    Hi There, I know that everyone's caloric needs are different, but I was just wondering about how many calories you all eat. I am asking because ever since I've been doing Cathe (used to do the FIRM), I am bingeing frequently. While FIRMing I had the right balance and was able to lose...
