RE: 12-Week Challenge Check-in * Doing the Happy Dance!... Happy Friday! DH and I are still right on track (the booger has already lost 5 lbs--men!). Today's workout will be a class called "The Mixx" at the gym. It's a kickboxing inspired floor cardio class that uses no equipment. It's...

Lori- I got mad for you just reading that! I don't think you'd be out of line at all to tell them you agree that the group should stop collecting money--but only AFTER every mom who contributed in the past had received a turn. How utterly inconsiderate of them! Kelly

Hi, all! Amelia--I lost 3lbs, too! It really makes the strictness of phase 1 worth it. But, like you, I know it'll slooooow down once the two weeks are up. I also love the way phase 1 resets your tastebuds--and your sugar tolerance. Today will be LIC for me--I'm hoping to add the bonus...

I gotta be quick cause the bus is going to arrive any minute! Amelia--Thanks so much for the website! Trying new things makes phase 1 so much more enjoyable. I'm triumphantly making my way through day 2 (:P ) of phase 1. Diana--I was referring to South Beach. Sorry for not being clear...

The kid's are back in school--Woo Hoo! Ahhhh, to be alone in the house :) Phase 1 of SBD is going well so far and I'm about to go work out before hitting the grocery store and the library. After that I must tackle undecorating my house....ugh. DH stuck to phase 1 yesterday, but opted to...

Happy New Year! I can't believe how late I slept today--and I didn't stay up past 12:30! My workout today will be Bootcamp because I'm following Cathe's January rotation. I've just completed two months of 4DS and a homemade 4DS from other Cathe dvds, so I'm really hoping to see some of that...

Hi, Wanda- Thanks for sharing all of your research with me :) I'm definitely going to pay close attention to how I grip the barbell/dumbbells and not lower down as far and see how it feels next time I do biceps. My elbows are perfectly fine when I'm not working my biceps--so thank goodness...

Happy New Year's Eve :) We've got a tremendously exciting 12 week challenge getting started in the check-in and challenges forum and I can't wait to see what you post for January! What would we do without you?! Have a wonderful evening :) Kelly

Hi, Everyone! This is my first check-in participation and boy do I need the encouragement :) I've been a committed exerciser for over 6 years now and am obviously a Cathe addict. The workouts are not the hard part for me--it's eating healthy. For the first time ever in my life (not...

Hi, Marla! Obviously not Cathe here, but I know from some other posts the answer to your first question.... Cathe does not use her videos to exercise with personally. She finds it hard to focus since she was so involved in all the prep and filming. She owns a gym in NJ and teaches...

My parents just bought a Wii to play with the grandkids and we had the same results! I was almost embarrassed that I was more sore from video game boxing than I was from my last Cathe workout. Yikes! Kelly

Thanks, guys! I've had tennis elbow before and it's not that kind of pain--I only feel it while working the biceps and then it goes away after I'm done working out. It actually hurts at the crease of my arm where the bending takes place, not the outer edges where you feel tennis or golfer...

RE: 12 Week Challenge Check in....ALL WELCOME...12/31 S... I'm in too! I need all the accountablility I can force on myself ;-) I have never faltered in my workouts and am probably stronger than I've ever been, but my eating hasn't been great for months and I've got a solid 20lbs to lose...

Hi all, I posted this in Ask Cathe, but I know there are many of you out there with great knowledge....so, I hope you can answer my question! I've noticed lately that when I'm doing heavy bicep work (currently using the Gym Styles) my elbows start feeling sore and achey. It's particularly...

Hi, Cathe! I hope I'm catching you while you're on here, but if not, I hope you'll see this! I've noticed lately that when I'm doing heavy bicep work (currently using the Gym Styles) my elbows start feeling sore and achey. It's particularly on the inside where the arm bends. It's not a...

Jill, I'm so glad someone had the book to look it up! My husband and I were a little surprised at some of the choices---I had a hard time believing "frickin" would have appeared in a children's book! Of course, it's always funnier the "dirtier" it becomes..... Kelly

I had this emailed to me yesterday and my kids and I have had a blast! Try it out for some great laughs. Sorry it takes up so much space in the post! Boobie Battyshorts (Formerly known as Kelly) We all need a little stress-reliever! This only takes a minute. Sometimes...

RE: Moms of young girls...need your advice on Drake Bel... HAHAHAHAHA....Rammstein! I actually know exactly who you're referring to....too funny, Shelley!! Kelly

Thank you, Cathe! I have such trust in your knowledge! Happy Thanksgiving, Kelly

one last hopefull bump:-)
