    Bike Riders

    I found that padded seats didn't help me in the least. But I did go to the local bike place and got the cutest bike skirt! Underneath the skirt it has super padded bike shorts and although it feels weird to walk in them they are really comfortable to wear when I go on a 15-20 mile bike ride...

    doggie ear problem

    One of our dogs (who passed away a few years ago) was prone to ear infections and our vet recommended doing a half and half solution of vinegar and water a couple times a week.

    Do You think a good sweat would hurt or help me?

    I think that if the pressure and pain is gone, go for it. But if it starts to hurt during the workout, stop. I hate sinus infections! Keep some tissues nearby;)

    Those are your MOM'S weights?!?!

    That's awesome! A few years ago, we got new siding and one day the contractor was over and our neighbor was over talking to us all and the neighbor said (with admiration, I might add), that the heavy bag in the garage was mine and not my husbands! Of course, DH would have looked rather funny...

    Best weight video to lose fat and gain muscle?

    I love Muscle Endurance. I started out with Push Pull/Supersets, which are both great, too (I love PP for being short yet effective). ME comes with Boot Camp, so you would have a circuit, too. Sometimes I find it easier to work my way into using more weights by adding in circuits for a while...

    I do not want children!

    I love being a parent, yet at the same time I know others whose children have fur and are perfectly happy. My SIL and her husband are in their late 30's, successful, and very content not having kids. They love kids, have plenty of nieces and nephews, and are some of the coolest aunts/uncles...

    Crib to Bed

    I pretty much did the same thing. She was baby gated in, until she started climbing it (then we added another on top of it). The first few days she would constantly get off of it, but as long as she was safe and couldn't get into things in her room, it was fine. She learned to go lay down in...

    so ticked,can't preorder before the 31st

    Wendy, I want to personally thank you for what you do. You're right. My daughter is now 10, but when she was about 1 my husband had to live somewhere else for a little while (not due to marriage problems) and that's when I started going to the local rec center. The babysitting there was...

    What to do with all these DVDs?

    I agree...I love variety, particularly since (as someone on another thread mentioned) our interests can be cyclical. I just did a video yesterday that I hadn't done in over a year. I wasn't interested for that period of time but I am again. Also, I did not get STS and do not have any desire...

    What STS Cardio invoice #??

    I absolutely agree. I consider it an investment in my health, both physical and mental. And my hubby likes the results, so he doesn't complain either ;)

    What STS Cardio invoice #??

    Jerry, that's too funny! I personally think this is a fun thread. And you know, even if it's a little juvenile, that's not always a bad thing. Everyone's excited about it! I don't have an invoice number yet as I had to wait to deposit some money into my account today...I'll order tonight...

    I am having bad anxiety attacks

    I would like to add my two cents. My DH has had panic attacks ever since I've known him. They can get pretty bad sometimes but thankfully they do not happen often. His manifest in the form of panic/fear. And they are far more likely to happen when he does not get enough sleep. Last year...

    I'm going on my first cruise - yippie!

    Here's one...just because you CAN order as many appetizers/entrees/desserts as you want during sit down meals does not mean you HAVE to. I went on a cruise in October with extended family and every night, DH, and my two brothers regularly ordered two entrees or three desserts...the last night...

    Peeps Mon Mar 9

    Good morning! It's been a while since I've 'peep'ed in so I thought I'd do a little check-in this morning. Today was high step circuit...I do like that one! I feel like I've got a split personality right now because I want to do lots of circuits because they're efficient, but I also want to...

    Multiple Dog Owners...Look Here!

    Thanks Cynthia! When we first got Lola (the all black one), she had been a stray and easily let herself get out of control when playing (not fighting, but just didn't know how to calm down from rough playing). When we were at school/work, she stayed in a kennel to avoid problems. She didn't...

    Multiple Dog Owners...Look Here!

    We have always had two dogs. It started out 13 years ago when we got a second dog because the first was being destructive. They were best friends. They've both passed on and we have two new ones, Jackson (black & white) and Lola (the mischievous one!). They lay together, play together, and...
