    The Having Kids Debate

    This is perfectly said. I was never in a position where I didn't want kids, but the point made in this post that I liked was about whether it's your child or someone else's is perfect. I love my kids dearly, but if I had based my decision on having kids by looking at other people's kids, I...

    So, is filming done?

    Hi Lorrie -- I didn't find it offensive that you asked this question -- I was thinking the same thing (apparently like everyone else!). Just glad you posted it! Like someone else said before, if we WEREN'T asking about the status, etc., Cathe should be worried. At least she knows that so many...

    Does anyone else watch Mad Men?

    I have heard good things about this show -- I don't get the cable station it's on, but I subscribe to Netflix, so I'm going to start from the beginning and watch it that way!

    Four Seasons made the front page of the Philadelphia Inquirer

    Thanks for the link to this article. It was very interesting. Now I know why I have aches and pains all the time when a few years ago I didn't. I'm 44, so I guess I'll have to keep that in mind when working out!

    very upset

    We have two cats which are 11 years old. I had them neutered and declawed when they were just a few weeks old. They never had any problems and are just fine today. We did this because we had a cat before who sharpened his claws on our couch to the point where the stuffing was coming out. We...

    Dare I even ask?

    Thanks Chris for the update -- as always, you are wonderful and give us so much information! I, too, am so excited about getting the new DVDs, but I will wait as long as it takes because I know that the final product will be a superb, high quality workout that I can work out to for years to...

    Cathe's weighted vest

    I purchased my vest through Walmart and it did have a strong odor at first (when I would walk into my workout room it hit me!). But it's been about 9 months now and it doesn't smell anymore. Give it a little time -- it will fade!

    What to do after ten years of stay at home

    I agree about considering a temp agency. I've been in the legal profession since I was 19 (I'm now 44). I quit my job in 1989 when my youngest daughter was born. I stayed home for a while and then about a year later I signed up with several legal temp agencies. My first assignment was a week...

    Any new workouts on FitTV?

    Cardio Fusion is a great one -- keep in mind that it is segments from Drill Max, Body Max 2, and Low Impact Circuit, etc. so if you don't already have those you may not be familiar with the workout and they don't break the routines down as much as the actual workouts themselves -- BUT -- it is a...

    If Only I Could Carry The Bathroom Mirror Around With Me!

    Thank you Jodi -- WELL SAID!! What's up with that?

    Ooopsy,,,, I slipped. Now what ?

    I agree with Jodi -- don't beat yourself up, move on! Just because you were bad one meal doesn't mean you'll gain a ton of weight (you might gain water weight from the extra sodium, I always do from any cheat meals I have!). But that's temporary. Just get back on track and start eating as...

    Remedy for falling asleep?

    Thanks Kathryn for the suggestions -- I, too, have trouble falling asleep at night (and staying asleep). I already have a dark room and a white noise machine, but I'm going to try taking my calcium supplement late in the day (as opposed to the morning) and get some Epsom salts and take a warm...

    Tired of the calorie counting game - HELP!

    What I try to do is to implement the 80/20 rule (eat really healthy or clean 80% of the time and 20% I will eat foods I probably shouldn't have). I try to eat the best I can, especially during breakfast and lunch. My downfall is dinner because my husband and daughter like foods that are not...
