    Our Friends in CA

    Thanks so much for your concern and prayers. I live in Rancho Cucamonga and the fires were really bad by my home on Friday thru Sunday. We were evacuated - I am so thankful to God and to all the firefighters, police officers & Forest service crews for their great work!! Our home is fine. As...

    Large Calves

    I think I qualify for the big calves club too!! Mine measure just under 15 inches. The only time I am not thrilled about my large calf muscles is when I find cute boots that will not zip up over my calf. Otherwise, I like having these big calves!! Although I want to lose 10-15 lbs. I am...

    Low Carb Diet

    I totally agree with Trevor -- everything in moderation. I must say, I did try the Atkins Diet for about 2 months -- and when I went to the Dr. and they did a Cholesterol Test --- yikes!!! My cholesterol has really gone way up, just from the Atkins Diet. Needless to say, my Dr. insisted I...

    Slim Series

    RE: April Post: Slim Series HI! I have been doing exclusively Cathe for the past few years, but I decided to order Slim Series. I really am enjoying the change. I feel like Slim Series is MUCH easier, but also that I am giving my body a good workout. It's just VERY different. I think...

    Questions for AM exercisers

    I set my alarm for 5:20 (although the clock reads 5:30) and I try to be up by 5:35 or 5:45. I have my clothes waiting to slip on- hanging for me to grab on my way to the bathroom. I immediately head to my Family Room where all my equipment, hopefully, has been set up the night before. I...

    Loving the July Rotation!!

    Donna, I woke up too late to do Circuit Max this a.m. - so I did a Precision Pilates workout. Tomorrow it will be Circuit Max.;) I usually seem to prefer the strength workouts over cardio -- so this rotation is good to give more of a Balance. I am liking the South Beach Diet- I think I lost...

    Loving the July Rotation!!

    Hi Joy, I totally agree with you about the good points in following a rotation. It does really motivate me, cuz I can set up my equipment the nite before and I am also mentally psyching up for that particular workout. Also, when I would just randomly pick a workout each morning, it seemed...

    Anyone want to join me?????

    I am really enjoying the July Rotation -- it is kind of intimidating--- but, I have told myself I WILL do this. Body Max was tough !! I usually skip IMAX 1 and Body Max, but it felt so good to do them!! I also did the June Rotation -- and loved that one too. These are my first 2 rotations...

    The "name our puppy" contest - any ideas??

    Briee, I love the name you chose!! Aslan is beautiful and probably very fitting for your mastiff puppy. The C.S. Lewis story portrays him as just SO BEAUTIFUL !! (If I remember correctly---it's been many years since I read that series.) Great choice. I hope you all are really enjoying...

    Joannie Greggins anyone?

    Yes, to think back on it, it sure does sound strange to do a full Cardio workout to an album!! It came with pictures of the workout, I believe. I had all of Jane Fonda's too. One of hers was a KILLER workout -- like 90 minutes of very hi intensity aerobics. Do you recall that one?? I wonder...

    Joannie Greggins anyone?

    I used to have a few of Joanie Greggain's workouts --- she was great at that time !! My DH and I used to do her Ab workout together. We, once commented on how we wonder what she's doing now?? Does anybody know? What a super-bubbly personality and sense of humor !! Linda;)
