    One more benefit of a fitness regimine!

    I totally agree!! Not only do I have friends (like you!) from online fitness groups, but some of my closest friends here I gained from joining a hiking group :-) Good for the body, good for the spirit!

    Peeping Out

    Hi Peeps! for those that got to take a class with Cathe yesterday, I'm glad you had a great time!! I'm jealous ;-) I was planning on doing LIC today but changed my mind. I started with a few errands, then met a friend at Applebee's. Our church did a pancake breakfast there this...

    PEEPS for Wed January 14th

    Good Morning Peeps! This morning I was originally planning on doing PP, but my hamstrings and lower back have been really tight ever since doing PP last Thurs. I usually have really good form, but something must have been off. I know my weights weren't too heavy as I used lighter ones than...

    Peeps Tues Jan 13

    Thanks for the suggestions everyone! Phyllis, DH and I are like that. He is a night owl and I'm up way early. Ellie, we just got a little snow (maybe two inches) yesterday but we've barely gotten any. I think this was our second snow of the season, and the first time was just a few...

    Peeps Tues Jan 13

    Happy Anniversary, Conni! I just finished LIS and totally hit a wall at the end of the last step combo...couldn't do the last intensity blast. I have got to have something more than half a banana before I work out! But I've got about half an hour between the time I eat and the time I work...

    cardio lover looking for strength

    Have you ever considered any of Cathe's circuits to 'ease' into weights? I think you might like that because it has cardio in it as well as weights. Do something like that for a month and then it would be easier to do a regular weights workout.

    Peeps Tues Jan 13

    Good morning Peeps! First of all, welcome to kariev! It's a great group here :-) This morning I have LIS on my plate, followed by a little abs work (either Crunch: Pick Your Spot Pilates Abs or Sara Ivanhoe's 20 minute yoga makeover Flat Abs) if I have enough time. Vilma, I can't...

    Has anyone tried High Step Circuit Beginners DVD

    I think High Step Circuit is a great video. It may not be as advanced as the other high step workouts, but it's fun and it's still a good workout, IMO. No, I'm no longer advanced (2008 was a rough year for me) but I also have to think about my joints. It doesn't seem to be as high impact as...

    Push/Pull & Super Sets

    I personally really like them. I only have so much time to work out in the morning before work (an hour or less) and I find them a great length and I feel like it's a good all around workout. I guess a lot of people find them easier. I don't find that to be true, but I am also not an advanced...

    Peeping Out

    Heather, here's the picture of the Stanley Hotel. Obviously they only filmed the inside there, but it's in such a beautiful place!!! Just minutes from Rocky Mountain National Park.

    Peeping Out

    I am sooo with you on that one, Ellie! I could never do it and it breaks my heart when I hear about animal cruelty stories, too. Here's the recipe for the chili: Turkey and Black Bean Chili 1 ½ lbs ground turkey 2 C onion and green pepper, chopped 15 oz can seasoned diced tomato...

    Peeping Out

    Good morning folks! No WO for me this morning either (I never work out on Sundays). Today before church I have to get two meals into crockpots...one for dinner tonight, and the turkey & bb chili for lunch this week. I'll post the recipe later if anyone would like. I think I got it on the...

    Crib vs. Bed When to switch?

    My daughter was less than a year old (10 or 11 mos) when she was climbing out of her crib. As soon as we found her climbing out, we bought a twin sized mattress and put it on her floor, with the little bed rails on it. It seemed to work really well for us.

    Sleepy Peepys??

    Good morning sleepy peeps! Ellie, your house is beautiful! I can't believe it is so clean considering the fact that you have younger children. My house is lightly cluttered. Not too bad, but more cluttered than I'd like. I try to follow flylady cleaning/decluttering tips, but it is so...

    How to get spray paint off glass!

    I'm glad to be able to help. We were shocked that it worked. I was going to see if my boss would let me take a little acetone home from work (I work with chemists) but the gasoline worked and didn't damage the paint on the car.

    How to get spray paint off glass!

    I am telling everyone I know about this...my car was vandalized last night. When I went to my car to leave for work, I found that someone had spray painted my rear window. Turns out that someone had done this to several cars in my neighborhood. Ugh! I was not looking forward to damaging the...
