    Hi everyone, No workout today. Will be shoveling more snow later. We got 22 inches. My plans to visit my Mom is cancelled. My sister said that their street is not passable...they live in Dunkirk, MD. Anyway....it's bright and beautiful outside but I want to snow to go away.

    Good afternoon, We already have over a foot of snow and it's still snowing hard. My plans for this afternoon were cancelled...was very disappointed. It's been quite awhile since I've seen it snow like this in Virginia. I didn't do any workouts today... a rest day... but maybe not for...

    Good Morning, I did Cathe's Gym Style Back, Shoulders, & Biceps Timesaver this morning. I'm sore from yesterday's workout. Cathe's workouts sure gets the muscles at every angle that other workouts do not do. I wonder how sore I'm going to be tomorrow. They're calling for snow this...

    Hi everyone, I did Cathe's Low Impact Circuit premix #1 this morning and really enjoyed it. I just got this DVD and I burned a good amount of calories. Jann - Navy won! This was the first time I got to see Navy beat Army at a live game. It was great. It made up for the headache I was...

    I woke up feeling really great. I had a headache for the last three days...started out as a sinus headache and graduated to a migraine headache. It seems whenever I stay at a hotel my allergies are horrible and I end up with swollen eyes, swollen nose membranes and then I have asthma attacks...

    Just got home from Philly...rough drive home with the bad weather. Last two days were rest days, although I did climb up 7 flights of steps at the stadium where we attended the Army/Navy football came. My quads were a little tight when we got to our seats.

    Hi Everyone, Today I did TLT Better Burn...Better Buns. Yesterday I had an very low energy day and my joints ached so I took a rest day. My food-intake was really bad...I was hungary for most of the day and I know I ate more than I needed. The cold weather is not helping much. I feel much...

    Good morning, I just finished doing TLT Finding Your Core. Again first time I've done this workout. It was really hard....some of the movements were awkward for me and I had to concentrate really hard to make sure I maintained proper form for fear I could hurt myself (i.e. knees...

    Good morning, I just did TLT Strength in Movement. This was the first time I have done this workout even though I've had this DVD for about a year. It was very challenging. I burned a serious amount of calories! Jann - congrats on the weight loss! Beth - I'm the same way with food...

    Hi everyone, Today and yesterday are rest days for me. I'll start up again tomorrow morning .... haven't decided what workout DVD to do yet. Maybe TLT for this week. My eating was good yesterday. As long as I keep my snacks under 200 calories I'm okay because the rest of my meals are...

    Hi everyone, This morning I did the FIRM Total Body Toner. This was actually a challenging workout...good total body workout. While doing the ab exercises, my Siamese cat (Takashi "Taka") became extremely affectionate and decided to add extra resistance by sitting on my stomach. He hasn't...

    Good morning everyone, I did the FIRM Power Yoga and Cardio Overdrive express (one of my favorites) this morning. I am not a fan of yoga, but I throw it in every now and then hoping that by some miracle I'll like it. I know it's good for you but I just don't enjoy yoga poses...I love to...

    Hi everyone, Today I did the FIRM Total Body Lite...yesterday was a rest day. I follow a rotation on a calendar as a way to make myself exercise. I haven't done the "pink" FIRM workouts for quite some time and find them to be easy which helps me focus on the muscles I'm suppose to be...

    Hi - I've been having problems with eating and staying motivated to finish a rotation too. Got back from visiting my daughter and her husband in Williamsburg VA...it was great seeing them. I am continuing doing a FIRM "pink" rotation for this week and did a cardio workout this morning.

    I really hate to cook but started doing it more after I retired from my full time job. I was on a clean eating kick for a while but decided it was a lot of work and there was a 50-50 chance that anything I cooked was tolerable. So I'm back to cooking things that are really easy (I.e. premade...

    Hi - When I pre-ordered Shock Cardio last March, I did get an email confirmation. Jann - My yorkie is a big girl (12 lbs) and none of it is fat. She is cute and adorable and I wouldn't want her any other way. Magnolia - We are on our third generation of pets. The Yorkie is our first...
