    Herbal tea recommendations please

    Hi Lisa, yes green tea is caffeinated but they come in decaf as well. I'm not sure if the Sleepytime teas help with my sleep or not. I'm a pretty sound sleeper, so I can't really compare to when I drink it before bed or not. I do think the herbs are relaxing though :)

    Collage Video going out of business

    I agree, I can't imagine the chaos that must be going on with CV. I don't blame them for the mess-ups, I think they've done the best they could with this crazy situation. My receipt said "WE ARE VERY SORRY" and I think they truly are. The system just couldn't keep up. I'm still not sure why...

    Collage Video going out of business

    I just got my order today. I ordered Cathe's Yoga Max (got that one) and two KCM DVDs (didn't get those). I never received any emails from Collage that said my whole order wasn't being fulfilled. I just received the confirmation order email with the 3 I ordered, then a shipping email but it...

    Oil Pulling

    @Tracy, try sticking it out. It grosses me out a bit too until the oil melts but I am already seeing results! My skin seems smoother and more radiant and my mouth and teeth feel cleaner. I can't tell if my teeth are any whiter yet but either it's all in my head ;) or I really am seeing these...

    Oil Pulling

    I had my first OP session this morning and it went well. It's definitely something I hope I'll get used to the more I do it. I let the coconut oil dissolve in my mouth before I starting swishing because the solid texture grossed me out a bit. And I did swish nice & slow. I used 1 tsp and did...

    Collage Video Going Out of Biz Sale

    I just placed an order but it looks like their inventory is going fast. I put Butts & Guts in my cart and by the time I went to check out it was gone :( I got two KCM workouts and Yoga Max though :D I may go back and get a couple from the Low Impact series later :eek:

    Oil Pulling

    Thanks for the feedback y'all! I'm anxious to give it a try as soon as I can get by the store for a refill of my regular coconut oil. Did y'all have any trouble at first (i.e., gag reflex) or anything?

    Oil Pulling

    Does anyone do this? Putting coconut (or other) oil in your mouth for 20 min, swishing it around and it pulls bacteria & toxins out of your mouth, then you spit the oil and germs into the trash.

    Thoughts on BODY BEAST?

    I have BB and have done one round. I really enjoyed it. Like Eileen, it's hard for me to build muscle but I saw really good results with Beast. There are two phases, one for if you want to build and bulk and another for building and leaning. The latter adds in cardio so if you decide to go...

    ToughMudder Events....

    Congrats on taking the plunge to do a Tough Mudder!! I did the Warrior Dash last year and among my usual workouts I added in running and focused on upper body a little more to prepare me for the run and the obstacles. Like RapidBreath said, doing some trail running should help as well. Good...

    STS in January

    I'm starting my 4th rotation of STS this month. I actually started in November and finished M1 but with the craziness of Christmas I decided I couldn't commit to the time requirement of STS until after the holidays. So...I'll be starting over next week with M1 again. I will be just doing the...

    Anyone switch from iPhone to Samsung Galaxy?

    Thank you so much for your replies ladies. Since I'm an Apple fan I think it probably makes sense for me to stay with the iPhone. DH is an engineer in sales so he sees a lot of colleagues w/ android phones which probably does work better in his business. But for me, I think the iPhone is what...

    Anyone switch from iPhone to Samsung Galaxy?

    DH is planning to upgrade from his iPhone to the Galaxy and is trying to talk me into doing the same. I would love to hear any thoughts/opinions from any of you who have done the same. Or even started with the Galaxy but switched to the iPhone. We have been an Apple family for awhile & I have...

    Smokers (outdoor/food...not cigarettes!)

    My hubs has a Big Green Egg and loves it. My dad and both brothers-in-law have one too and everything I've eaten smoked on them has been incredible.

    If Cathe made an STS 2...

    Great thread!! I have been hoping and hoping for a long time Cathe will do an STS 2, so I'd be a happy camper if she does it. All of the ideas posted are great. I love using the barbell so having the cast use both DB & BB would be great so we can choose personally what we want to do. I...

    Muscle building

    I have Body Beast & really enjoyed it. It is geared towards men but lots of women do it too. I also love heavy lifting and this one fits the bill. Sagi is a hoot too so that gives it a fun factor.

    I thought you should know....

    Cathe, I'm so sorry to hear of the passing of your dad. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. He will always be in your heart and memories until you are reunited again. Hugs, Tracy

    KCM's New DVD Trim Down is available to pre-order and with a clip.

    I've never tried any of her workouts. What are her best weights (heavy or hypertrophy type) DVDs? I've looked at her Muscle Definition one but haven't tried it...any others?
