Hola! Just a quick note from me today, as I am on my way to the company kickball game! :-) So, no workout for me today, but I do intend to do some walking to get to the field and around the area, but nothing really substantial. Today is going to be a rest day. Katie, I'm happy to hear...

Toni, I agree with Natasha. When I did STS, my appetite also increased dramatically. I ate a lot more protein. Greek yogurt with fruit, peanut butter on whole wheat bread or crackers, or just pieces of turkey or chicken breast. I found this was the only way to satiate my appetite with a minimum...

Hello, Congratulations on your weight loss Ladylep, that's awesome. Your diligence with your workouts that last couple of weeks is paying off for you!! I'm glad your TTOM is not that bad right now too. Katie, kudos to you for pushing through and getting your workout in today! I hope your...

Hello Everyone, Katie, thanks for starting the new thread! I wonder if anyone will pick up that Xtrain thread at some point...? I'm sorry about your ankle.:(How long does this usually last when you have these flareups? Any idea what exactly causes them? Is it an overuse injury, or something...

Hi Mariposa, This happens to my sister in law, and she has a sun allergy. There is a special type of sunscreen that she uses that is more effective than the higher SPF brands, but I would probably recommend that you go see a dermatologist to see what they say. I can share that she is able to...

Greetings, I hope everyone is having a peaceful Sunday. I just finished up my Tracey Mallett Booty Barre workout. This was the first time through for this. I liked this workout. It reminded me of Turbo Barre, as it has some weighted upper body and some cardio blast work to keep you heart rate...

Hello All, Renee, hot naked yoga, huh!?;) That's awesome. Does the vinegar and water do something to help you pass the stone more quickly? Would you be able to go to work while you're dealing with that? I hope Sunday is your lucky day and it passes so that you don't have to deal with this next...

Well, I wish I had waited on UY, since I've only done it a few times, but I had bought that when it first came out. I bought the Leah Sarago upper and lower body workouts, and two Pump it Up DVDs, which are a series of dance cardio aerobic workouts that I LOVE. Thanks again for the heads up...

Ladylep, I hope you're not coming down with something too. :confused: Sending you healing energy and wishes that you are able to fight that cold off. It's hot and muggy down here in DC too. I'm going to try to get some gardening in today, but we'll see how that goes. My SIL gave me some pepper...

Hi Nathalie, Unfortunately I cannot help with this because, even though I am of Caribbean descent, I have dreads. There was a long thread on the videofitness forum about hair care for black hair, and there was a product that was discussed that is supposed to absorb sweat more effectively...

Good morning! Yesterday I did a mashup of workouts. I started Tonique Born to Move, but after about 15 minutes the plumber came...talk about saved by the bell. That workout is hard and that was just about the time the torment begins. Then he finally left, and I ate lunch and did Tonique Disk...

Wow, it's not this colorful in my kitchen when I'm making snacks. I must be doing it wrong. ;)

ENABLER!!:mad::p:mad::p:mad::p Thanks, Betty. Eva

Hello Everyone, This is just a quick post to answer Renee's question, since the Deal of the Day is time sensitive... I did STS, and I loved it. You are not working one body part per se as Cathe groups them, like chest and back, or bis and tris and shoulders. Lower body is always on it's own...

Man, I am so bummed for you guys, Renee, Katie and Melissa. I wish you were all feeling a million times better. Renee, I will be keeping you in my prayers. My understanding is that kidney stones are excruciating. I imagine you have some painkillers. Don't worry about posting here if you're not...

Hello, Melissa, I am glad your quilt came out well! What kind of machine do you have? Do you usually use it to sew clothes? I'm sorry you are not feeling any better, but I'm glad you were able to have a relatively low-key day today...the park near your house sounds lovely. :D Katie, I'm...

Greetings, Melissa and Katie - I am sending you both healing energy for your respective bouts of the ickies...rest and relaxation is probably the best antidote for what ails both of you, so I hope today is an easy day for you. Melissa, that's so cool that you're making a quilt for the...

Congratulations, Shannon!

Melissa, Just quick post to say I'm sorry you have cramps and are not feeling well. :( Get well soon! Eva P.S. A rest week sounds fabby! :) I do sometimes take weeks where I'll do easy workouts, but I don't think I've taken a total rest week, although I like that idea. I guess my...

Hi Everyone, Ladylep, a metabolic workout is one that uses light to medium weights with cardio-infused moves to build strength and endurance at the same time, it's also a good cardio workout and gets your heart rate up. Afterburn and CSS are Cathe's flagship metabolic workouts. Today is my...
