Amybajamy: This training schedule seems like it may work for me...when you say split routines what do you mean....could you lay out a typical week for me, and how often do you work legs? What is your goal, to lean out or build? Sorry so many questions. Elizabeth

Thanks guys for answering me.....and the link was GREAT.....

Hi everyone, I was curious if anyone watched Oprah on Wednesday. She had a woman on whom she had helped shed a lot of weight. Also on the show was a doctor who mentioned 5 ingredients that get added to manufacutred food that we should avoid at all costs. I remember 4 of them but can not...

Hi everyone! I've seen a lot of you write about P90X and was wondering what the general consensus was on this series of DVD's. I was thinking of purchasing it to shake things up a bit, but wanted to first get some feedback from all of you. I welcome all opinions. Thanks :-)

I have a question on the freestyle. Is this a book that was written several years back? Do you follow the program to the letter?

Thank you so much for your reply. I will print it out and get started on it tomorrow. I can't wait! Elizabeth:-)

Just bumping this up. If anyone else has any input I would appreciate it. Thanks

Hi Amy, Not Cathe, but I can try and help. I own a body fat scale, probably one of the best on the market. It works really well, however even so, these scales work on a bioelectrical feedback which is greatly affected by the water content in your body which can vary greatly anytime simply by...

Cathe, I've got two rotations that I've picked out from your past ones and I need to know which one I should do to really lean out my legs, and maybe even burn these last few pounds off. I'm trying to decide between the August '04 or the September '05 rotation. Is there one you would recommend...

Dont feel dumb, I just figured out how to minimize a screen! I am always asking my 13 year old how to do stuff.......a sign of the times :-)

Hi Muffin Top, Not Cathe, but I do have some input for you. I've had good success with working the body for life rotation (UB, LB, UB say M,W,F with 4 days of cardio and then alternate the next week LB, UB, LB etc). After approximately 4-6 weeks I will switch it up and go to a Full body on...

Thanks Kathryn, I will try this brand as well. Elizabeth

RE: Fiber options Dear Lorrayne, Thanks for the info on magnesium, I'm going to try that. I do try and get the 2 tbs of ground flax in a day already, I think I will try the low glycemic fruits as well, I do love fruit. Thanks again

Kathryn, What type of sprouted grain bread do you buy that has no flour? Thanks in advance. Elizabeth

Thanks Laura for all your imput.....good thing I really love veggies! I will look for a good fiber supplement. Elizabeth

Dear Laura, Thank you also for your input. Unfortunately I can not TOTALLY avoid bread.....I do however only have it once a day and always before 3pm. I do use Splenda instead of sugar and take all the necessary vitamins...but I still get that bloated feeling sometimes. Regarding the fruit...

Lorrayne, Thank you so much for your input. I checked my reduced cal. bread and it only had 2g of Fbr per slice. Fortunatly, I still had the sprouted grain in the freezer so I will go back to that and stick with it. I usually do not have bread at dinner, maybe once in a blue moon when my...

Cathe, I have a question on carbs. It's been mentioned that we should eat a clean "diet" and I have done so 90% of the time.....I do have the occasional cheat with chocolate etc. but on the whole I eat fresh fruits and vegetables, lean chicken & fish (no red meat because I can not break it...

HI, I'm not Cathe, but I was in your situation. It seemed that the more I worked out the less I would lose even though I ate clean. It turns out that I was consistent with my eating but actually over exercising thereby throwing my body into starvation mode, so it was hanging onto everything...

I wanted to thank all of you and especially you Cathe for taking the time in your busy lives to write me and send me your well wishes. You are all a wonderful group. Thank you
