    1RM tips and suggestions--and a question

    Hi everyone- I was wondering if those of you who have started to tackle the 1RM calculating could share some tips. I've started printing out the cards to take to my exercise room to figure things out and was wondering if I can skip the exercises that list %1RM as 0--meaning, you don't need...

    Rice Protein Question--anyone?

    I have several family members who've drastically changed their eating habits after reading The China Study and I've heard them talk so much about the studies on animal protein that I've decided to try supplementing with rice protein instead of whey. Migraines run in my family, so lots of soy...

    Hernia question... (Any docs out there?)

    Not a doctor, but just dealt with this with my DH. He developed an umbilical hernia (belly button) in February that was only the size of a blueberry, but bothered him a lot, even when he ran. Our primary physician told him it wasn't a big deal, but he could see a surgeon if he wanted. He...

    "Lost" question

    RE:2 more seasons There are definitely two more seasons ahead for Lost--the next one will be about getting back the the island, and the last one will be what happens when they get back to the island. I'm a pathetic tv nut who reads interviews and articles about my fave tv shows :) They will...

    Tried Kettlebell Way DVD

    Well, today I did the Kettlebell Way DVD for the first time--I'm definitely going to be sore tomorrow! I enjoy the newness of of it and I love how it works the core, glutes and shoulders. It's a great change of pace. That being said, watching the DVD reinforced to me how high Cathe sets the...

    WOW!!!

    RE: More KB Questions I'm so glad so many of you succumbed to temptation with me! :) I got my 15# GoFit Kettlebell yesterday, and it comes with a DVD. I figured I'd try that one out while waiting for the Kettlebell Way to show up. Think Cathe'll make a kettlebell workout?? Kelly

    Anon- Thank you for checking in, I know many of us have been thinking about you all morning. Here's my 2 cents, for what it's worth: If he's that motivated to stay together than he should be willing to go find help. He admits he has problems and issues (even though he justifies them in...

    Grocery Bill

    Hi, 3kids- I use the Microsoft Money that came loaded on my computer when I bought it. I've been using it since 2000 (I just save my data to a cd and load it into the computer again when we get a new one) and I love all the information I get. Basically I don't have a paper check book or...

    Grocery Bill

    This is very interesting :) I balance my accounts on my home computer and it calculates all of this for me, so I know what I spend pretty well. I spend $650/mo. on groceries for my family of four and we have a $200/mo. budget for eating out (which is mostly taken up by my husband buying...

    My daughter kicked out of daycare today!! Please help

    RE: My daughter kicked out of daycare today!! Please h... Wendy, I've got to state right up front that I've not put my kids in daycare, so this is not "expert" advice or anything---however, having two kids I can say this: There is not a 2 1/2 year old on the planet that shares well. It's...

    Lost Fans (spoiler)

    Aaron is definitely connected to the island somehow, or at least the mystery--remember how the season finale (or close to it)one year was the losties and the french woman getting ready to battle the others because they thought they were coming to take Aaron away? Just like they took the french...

    Lost Fans (spoiler)

    Some Points to Remember-- **Remember when Claire went to the psychic in her flashback and the psychic said that she MUST raise her child--bad things would happen if she gave Aaron up?? I wonder what that means now that we know Kate's got him......Is Claire going to die or did they kidnap...

    ### 12 Week Challengers FEB 22nd #####

    Hi, Amelia- I know the crackers you're talking about and they are made with white flour. The ingredient list will say "whole" wheat flour if it's whole grain. If you're looking for a great crunch, try Wasa crackers. They're long like a graham cracker, but very whole grain friendly and very...

    Can you buy DVD's in a store?

    Nope. They're availabe here, obviously, and on fitness sites like collage video. I think a few of the Fit TV versions of her dvds were available a while ago at the Discovery Store in malls and places like that, but they are not the original versions and I would recommend getting the original...

    Good Morning! My son's home sick today, so I've got more free time on my hands than usual for posting. **Lori**--I've always wondered if your screen name was your birth year. I just turned the big 3-0 a few weeks ago! I was actually not bothered by it at all. I still don't feel like a...

    Doing Cathe's Feb rotation ?

    I had major reservations about starting this rotation when Cathe posted it because it looks like such little cardio. I'm currently in the process of taking off about 20 lbs that I gained over the past year or two and was terrified I'd see my results stop. Here's my experience: This rotation...
