    Difficulty with Aerobic workout

    Be careful with fish oil capsules! I had a cholesterol problem last fall and started taking them as instructed. At my 3 month blood test my liver function was WAY out of whack. I just tested again, after 3 more months of healthy eating/exercising but eliminated the fish oil and my liver is...

    Foot Pain

    I haven't had that exact pain but I had PF and no long take foot pain lightly. Get to a foot doc and get an evaluation. If you can get a diagnosis and fix it early, you'll save yourself a lot of pain and recovery time!

    Why am I feeling so blue?

    Please consider seeing a therapist! I was struggling with issues last year and talking to an "outsider" really, really, really helped. At first it seemed weird, but I can't stress enough how helpful it was. My favorite thing he told me was "you're going to be 40 anyway, why not be 40 and...

    Baseball Fans......excited!

    I'm a fan in the sense that I like to go to games, watch people, eat the stadium food and drink beer! My DH is a fan and we're going to a Cubs game in Wrigley Field for "our" anniversary this year. 2 years ago, we went to Yankee Stadium for "our" anniversary. Luckily, both cities have...

    Instructional Video is a Must! Cathe, please must read this!

    I have the most trouble with moves that put my back to the TV, especially if she doesn't cue with what foot I should be on. I think there's a difference between an advanced exerciser and advanced moves. I don't think it would take away from the workouts to put an instructional chapter as an...

    What's your favorite fruit?

    Definately raspberries. I buy this great big bag of frozen all year round for smoothies and treat myself to fresh in season. Strawberries are a close second, followed by apples but only if someone else cuts them up for me - I'm lazy and have a bad jaw so they have to be sliced up. Now, what...

    Mucinex

    Yes, I have asthma and rely on it whenever I get a cold to make sure I don't have complications. I've never had any of the side effects talked about, but everyone's different. My doc recommended it so you might try asking, or if you have a good pharmacist. Get better soon!

    CARS & IMAGE - - lets have some feedback :)

    I LOVE LOVE lOVE my Honda Accord! It's pushing 10 years now and the only problem I had with it was a flat tire and too much dog hair in the back seat....so not really the car's fault! I'm looking to replace ONLY because it doesn't have all the "new" bells and whistles, like CD player, etc...

    The new fashion trends...

    I soooo agree! I was at an event at my local Nordstrom last weekend and if I had a dollar for every "crack" I had to see, I could have paid for all the make-up I bought! It's horrible - especially the poor lady who really should have worn another style but went ahead and put pantyhose on...

    bra help

    Wacol from Nordstom are my favs - I have bigger "girls" and I get great coverage and motion control. Get fitted - it's worth having another person in the dressing room with you!

    Looking at some new shoes?

    I don't wear either of those but I recently had the problem of my toes and the ball of my foot going numb during long workouts. The shoe expert recommended switching from an all leather shoe to one that has mesh - not only are they lighter but I haven't had the numbness. Just an idea.... good...

    Do you ever just need a break?

    YES! I do need breaks, usually seasonally but sometimes more often. I think it's tied to weather...... It usually lasts a week or more and I have to "just snap out of it" - I start to feel like a sloth and a lump on the couch. I find that I'm re-energized and get good results quickly when I...

    Do you consider yourself high maintenance?

    I try to be high maintenance without drawing too much attention.... I spend plenty of money on skin care, make up and hair color & styling ONLY so I can get ready quickly and feel good about myself. I don't wear high heels except to funerals, my jeans are tight when I'm not carefully...

    Endo, Meso...Confused-o

    Interesting.... of course my bicep test came out to be medium, but I think I do better with lighter weights/endurance. But you're right, it's mostly trial and error! Thanks!

    pilates

    I've had the windsor pilates (20 min beginner and 45 min advanced) for a while now. I find that I don't use it very often but when I do I can definately feel it! She's easy to follow and there's an instructional section to make sure you've got good form. I have arthritis in my neck and...
