I did GS Legs this morning, and while lying on my back doing that outer thigh move with the band around your feet and criss-crossed in front the darn thing just snapped. Well, of course I had to finish with just half a band which actually was better. On that move I really have to choke up on...

Honestly another reason I don't post much is because I have seen other people getting jumped on for posting a repeat question. It made me afraid to ask the wrong thing. Me too--that's why I usually keep to myself. I just read what interests me. --Sharon

Stacy & Kathryn-- Thanks for the suggestions. I've done both of those moves before, but they just slipped my mind. --Sharon

Hi Cathe! I did Butts & Guts this morning (got a real butt-kicking for Christmas!), and had a lot of trouble with the 1-legged squats. I have a bunion that just kills me with these from flexing my foot too much when it's behind me on the step. I did static lunges instead, but thought I'd...

I have it in my hands, feet, nose, and ears. The ear part is really bad because I wear my hair very short. I have also tried taking a prescription drug for it (Norvasc, a calcium channel blocker) but didn't really find that it made a difference. I've just learned that I have to suck it up...

My son is 19 years old now, but I went thru this with him when he was a little boy. He held it so long that he did get constipated. We went to the doctor, and he gave me suppositories. It only took one time using those, and he never wanted that again. After that, we just made a rule that...

I've had great results, as far as maintaining my size and seeing more definition. I've been too lax with my diet, or my results would be even better. I've learned that I respond better to more cardio and circuits vs. heavier weight training. I love to do both, so like for this month I'll...

Cathe always posts the new rotation right before the 1st day of the month (probably tomorrow night). I've been following her rotations for years. What I usually do is repeat 1 week of the current rotation I'm on (because I can't make one up for myself either!) because if you look at the...

I use Only Sweet, or SweetLeaf stevia. The SweetLeaf has fiber added to it. It's harder to find and more expensive. The only problem I have with stevia is that it doesn't dissolve well in cold beverages. Like usually if I make iced tea, I'll dissolve it in about a 1/2 cup of hot water before...

I also gave up artificial sweeteners over a year ago. I use stevia in my coffee and tea, and gave up soda for the most part. When I want one, I drink a regular soda in the small cans. I lost 5 pounds after giving it up. --Sharon

Hi Barbara! I have lupus. I'm 39, and I was diagnosed in 2001 after almost 2 years of symptoms. I have worked out regularly for 14 years, usually 6 days a week for 45-90 minutes. You have to listen to your body, and not worry about keeping up with others (especially Cathe!). Some days I...

I'm a sweater too--and I have Raynaud's! Sharon

I love iTread and iClimb. Most of the time Grace doesn't bother me, EXCEPT when you're in a sprint and she counts it down. She'll say you can do anything for 60 seconds, that somehow turns into 90 seconds to 2 minutes. She does that a lot!!! The only other thing I can think of is one of...

Wow! Leanne M. hit on a lot of the same bands I loved. How about Billy Idol??? I nearly was thrown out of that concert. My first concert was---Rick Springfield!!! Now there's not many bands I would pay money to see live, how sad.;( Sharon

Thanks for the input. Mine's just my left foot, so hopefully I could still drive. I'll miss my workouts tho!!!;( --Sharon

Has anyone had this surgery, and how long was your recovery? Thanks! --Sharon

Missy-- We recommend (also the American Association of Orthodontists) the first consultation around age 7. We don't treat most 7 year olds, but like to check their development--make sure they don't have missing teeth, and check for skeletal problems early. If early treatment is recommended...

I work at Judy Orthodontics which is off of 106th and Commerce, next to the Goddard school. Maybe some time we'll run into each other!!! --Sharon

Is this the Michigan Road Ritter's by 106th Street? One of my offices is right behind it. --Sharon

I gave up all artificial sweeteners last summer after reading the reports on both Aspartame and Splenda. I have not only avoided weight gain, but have been able to stay about 5 pounds lighter with no extra effort.:P The biggest problem is avoiding these sweeteners. I just found that...
