    Okay~not fair guys!.....

    It was a beautiful, beautiful gesture! :) And my husband pointed out to me that they aren't just flowers, but a dish garden, so even after the flowers wither, I'll have a lovely plant as a daily reminder of the love I received here. Thank you all so much, Donna Fitness~ It's a...

    Okay~not fair guys!.....

    Ok Wanda.................. My husband says, "you know something!" "You're in on it!" Now I know he fancies himself a "sleuth," so is he right? Or does he need to go back and watch a few more episodes of Forensic Files and New Detectives? :) Donna Fitness~ It's a journey, not a race!

    Acts of kindness................

    Debbie......... I'll have to let you know! It looks like it's got more lower body reps than a Cathe workout! I'm kind of terrified! :) Donna Fitness~ It's a journey, not a race!

    Okay~not fair guys!.....

    So if a beautiful basket of flowers comes to my door with NO signature except for "from your friends at Cathe" how do I know who to thank? :) And do you know I stood there like an idiot saying, "for me? are you sure?" And I open the card thinking, "we've been married for 10 years and James...

    TAEBO Question

    The "Get Ripped Advance" were actually my first "Billy experience!" I love them! He is intense for sure! He does seem to have a problem with equal counts for both sides of the body but you learn that as you go and will compensate in your own way. So other than the counts, I love the workouts...

    Weight Loss Check-In 5/19/03

    I'm holding steady too. Not surprised really, my eating has been up and down so I expected to maintain. I'll be missing next weeks check-in because I'll be in FL at hubby's family reunion. Oh joy! So I'll be back here by the following check-in. Congrats Linda on the compliment, it's...

    Acts of kindness................

    I am going to try to get through this post without breaking down in tears, but it won't be easy so if my typing/spelling suddenly goes haywire it's because I'm in a blur of tears! I want to share with all of you something incredible that I experienced this morning when I got my mail. I opened...

    Another face of success

    Wow Melissa, what a great success story! I think we forget all too often about how much we get emotionally and mentally from working out. I think there's some connection between getting physically strong and becoming mentally stronger. And Cathe has that way of making you feel you can do...

    One year ago today....

    Hi KeliJean, What a wonderful story of courage and overcoming adversity, WOW! I'm speechless at this moment, I guess because it seems we're always wanting to work out to become leaner, or lose weight, or our thighs jiggle too much, and we forget that for some people there is a bigger...

    Finding the strength to work out when life turns on you

    RE: Finding the strength to work out when life turns on... Hi Sabine, I'm genuinely sorry for the trials you've been experiencing, each one followed by another so quickly really makes you feel almost buried. But I truly believe that there is a bigger plan for us when these things happen to...

    addictions...

    -McDonald's fries (I have a secret desire to have an entire "to go" bag filled with hot McDonald's fries and I just eat them straight out the bag.) This is actually my "death bed" wish that my hubby and daughters are aware of and are expected to grant at the appropriate time! (of course they...

    Way O/T, but need some feedback...

    Cara.................... You just summed up exactly what these posts feel like to me, "one big group hug!" :) These replies just go to show that the hatred in this world is just one small sector, there's far more love and acceptance out there! And although hatred sometimes raises its ugly...

    Have you outgrown your Med Ball?

    Oh no, my 8# ball is still quite sufficient! :) Donna Fitness~ It's a journey, not a race!

    Attention Donna (Gettinfit@39)

    Hi Anna :) Yes, I am looking forward to KP&C, but heck, I'm looking forward to the whole set of workouts! :) Do you know I had "Fit To Kick" and gave it away! I wish I had never given it away! I didn't find her to be like Cathe, it was a good workout, but to me she wasn't like Cathe other...

    Cathe~fun thread

    Oh yeah, straddle moves and any move where you have to use both sides of the step were probably the first moves I had to overcome! I remember the first time I successfully did an "around the world," you would have thought I discovered some major medical cure or something! And looking back I feel...

    Cathe~fun thread

    Mikie.............. OMG! I didn't mention the "figure 8's" because I didn't want everyone to think I was a total moron! But they gave me so much trouble at first too! I don't know why, but if I turned the wrong way I was lost in it every time! And that move in Step Works took me FOREVER to get...

    Cathe~fun thread

    Okay~I got this idea from over at VF, but I thought we could apply it to Cathe workouts. What "Cathe" moves are NOW easy/automatic, but use to be difficult for you? Mine: -flying angels (don't ask me why I made them so hard?) -box lunges (it was a mind over matter thing!)...

    Way O/T, but need some feedback...

    NOW I have closure!........ I am sitting here in a blur of tears I am touched so deeply, not just for me, but for our society! We (as a society) really have come leaps and bounds, and this thread just goes to show that there is more love in this world than hate! :) I have my closure, this...

    Way O/T, but need some feedback...

    Hey Annette.................... Don't even think about it! I'm not white and in my head when I first become acquainted with people here I somehow in my mind picture them as white I guess cause I don't picture anything else, so what's that about? :) I rarely ever picture a person in a "color"...
