Absolutely loving it!!! Fitnik - glad to hear that the breastfeeding is going well for you two! I'm breastfeeding my first (3 mos. now) and I LOVE it. Olivia's just starting to interact with me while nursing which brings me even more joy. She's also starting to play with it a little which is...

It's a matter of proper form and technique... When stepping up onto the Step, knee flexion should never exceed 90 degrees when weight-bearing. According to AFAA, "participants are encouraged to select a step height that will allow an appropriate training stimulus without compromising form and...

WWWWWWOOOOOOHHHHHOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Need I say more?!

Hi Tricia! While I'm still on leave from full-time I have started back teaching part-time. I pretty much started pumping what I can and the result is that I have a variety of oz. bottles (disposables). I pump prior to feeding and even after if I need the relief still. Currently, the longest...

RE: Whoops -didn't take herbs I use Formula I for allergies and some illnesses but used Shaklee's multivitamin for my prenatal. I'd heard and read a lot of stuff about prenatal vitamins that was not good. For instance, most of the iron in prenatal vitamins (of which most are synthetic) is...

THANK YOU BOTH!!! Thank you so much for finding the spirit behind my posts. Like most who find a product they love and share about it - so was my intent. I must say that I have a sister-in-law who is an avid exercise who also suffers from panic attacks. Having taken what I think was a...

I am truly sorry to have offended anyone using this product. Yes, I use Shaklee but I don't distribute. I am a researcher so I appreciate their expertise in product development in this area. More importantly, I am a fitness instructor and it would be unethical for me to support the use of...

Whoops -didn't take herbs Hey FoloofaTook (I love your name;). Herbs like enchinacea, ST. John's wort, gingseng, etc. are NOT what I took. Actually, even though Shaklee is a great company, I stopped using these products while pregnant. What I DID take was FOOD supplements such as garlic and...

I use Shaklee I use Shaklee but am not an official distributor. Nonetheless, I researched products before I joined and found that there are many companies, like Vitalert, that will sell anything to make a buck. I'm not saying it doesn't work, I'm concerned about the "cost" to those of you...

FDA on supplements I'm not an expert - just a fitness instructor and one who has taken it upon myself to educate myself in this area because those who I thought would know about supplements - don't. I mentioned Shaklee in another e-mail. The FDA does not monitor supplements but has asked...

Please read my "New Vitamin Crew" watch out e-mail Hey you all! I posted an e-mail with the above title that you might want to check out! jeni

Hey all, I just HAD to send this e-mail because it seems "suspect" that this company puts all that they do into their products. The best advice I was ever given about supplements is KNOW YOUR COMPANY!!!!!!!!!!!! Are the vitamins bioavailable? Put it in water and make sure it breaks down in...

Yes - I've been and am there with you! Hi, my name is Jeni and I had a similar experience. I live in Chicago and have SEVERE allergies that are only exacerbated by our extreme changes in weather and temperature. I am allergic to "EVERYTHING" - and I previously took 4 medications a day PLUS an...

Soory but I need to bump this myself...

Hi all, sorry if this is too personal but I'm really stressed about this. I had my first baby 9 weeks ago via c-section. 7 weeks post partum I had my pap smear and it was VERY uncomfortable with a "pinching" sensation on my cervix. My doctor found a better angle and then all was o.k. (not...

Hi Cathe! You mentioned in one of your posts that you use a wide range of dumbells for the Pyramid sets (as I can see from the pictures!). What range are you talking about? I'd like to make sure I have the necessary weights by the time my order arrives. Thanks! jeni
