Dear CandiK and Shari, Thank you so much for letting me know that you firmed up dramatically with the clean eating. It is one of those things that I have really thought was the key in the back of my mind, but I'm "afraid" to try it. Sometimes I wonder if I'm afaraid of succeeding. Does that...

Thanks so much to everyone for their suggestions. I have been seriously considering a session with a nutritionist. I probably know all there is to know about nutrition, but I was thinking they may introduce it in a new light. I have never tried food journaling, to be completely honest I would...

I'm so sorry to hear about your kitty. I am a cat lover and our two cats are definately part of the family. I hope that you will find some comfort in the memories you have of your sweet baby. I just don't know how people can live with themselves after doing something like this. Vickie

Anyone, please help. I can match Cathe pretty much pound for pound on most tapes, it's touph, but I can finish. I usually do 3 weight workouts and 3 cardio. I cannot get firm. I can tell that I have muscle, but my skin seems loose, and I'm very "lumpy". Will eating clean really make me get...

Clare, Thank you so much for your experience. I think I will give it a try. I figure, I know how to insert a tampon, it should be about the same. I am a bit leary of weight gain, but considering the fact that I've used oral contraception for 14 years without a problem. I'm not sure why I...

Thanks carol for the encouragement. I love your quote, because sometimes we need all the help we can get in the "not shooting our husbands" department. Vickie

Hi everyone, Sorry to broach such a personal subject, but I figured this is the largest place I know to "poll" women. I am supposed to start this new birth control this evening, but one of the side effects says "weight gain". My doctor knows I'm terrified of this, and he says that since I...

Thank you guys, I am so glad I am not the only one. I kept thinking, maybe I'm just crazy. By the way , I had a diagnostic mamagram, so I got the results immediately. Everything is perfectly fine. It was my first one, so it was extremely intimidating. Thank goodness that the people who work in...

Hi Everyone, Is it just me, or does flourescent light make you look 100 times worse than you thought you looked? Lately I've actually been thinking that my thighs were looking better. Firmer and tighter. Then, I went for a mamagram today,(as if that wasn't bad enough!)and when I removed my...

Thanks for all the support. I really can't wait to try it again. I may even do it again tomorrow. Vickie

Wow,my husband got me Rythmic Step (and Power Hour) for my birthday, and I did Rythmic Step this morning. I loved it! Fun, fun, fun. I have never fallen off my step so much though. I just couldn't get those step tap on the board at the end. The foot work in the 2nd section was tricky, but I...

Clare, I do sweat a lot during Circuit Max, but I seem to notice it more during CW. Maybe it's becaause I'm much closer to hyper ventilation when I'm doing Circuit Max, and that's all I can focus on! Vickie

Does anyone else find this to be true? Whenever I do Cardio and Weights I sweat buckets! Now believe me, I know there are far more challenging Cathe videos. There are other cardio videos and weight training videos of her's that I find much more difficult and intense, but for some reason I seem...

Dear Cathe, Hi, you devised a summer workout program for another member that looks really intriguing, but I have a few questions. In week # 2 and 3, you say to do an hour of strength training, 4 days a week, 2 body parts per session. On the 4th day are you supposed to do a total body workout...

Thanks so much to everyone that replied to this post. I was afraid that MIC would come out on top. I have owned this video ever since it came out, but I do it rarely. It's just so hard to get motivated to do OVER an hour of cardio. I will try to work it back in. On the plus side, I have been...

I think Bootcamp is pretty intense, I did kick,punch and crunch this morning and was dripping when I finished. In fact I was so sweaty that I slipped off the ball when I started the ab section!

Dear Cathe, I was just wondering, which of your workouts would you consider very high intensity cardio besides the Imax1 and 2 workouts? Would Step Blast be considered very high intensity? Any suggestions would be great. Thanks, and HAPPY MOTHER's DAY! Vickie

Hi everyone, Has anyone done Windsor Pilates, and if so, what did you think? I'm not much of a yoga person. The infomercial (yes, I admit, I watched it!) looked a lot like calenetics. Has anyone gotten any great tightening results from these tapes? Just curious. I thought it might be...

Missy, I have never heard of this program, but maybe he means working one body part per day, that would come out to 6 days a week. I'm kind of doing a rotation like this. I use the slow and heavy series, and do one section of each tape followed immediately by cardio. For exemple, today I did...

RE: Need advice on choosing an orthopedic specialist fo... Dear Ginger, My husband had knee surgery in Oct. after many years of pain (iced it every night). He is a second degree black belt in kung fu. Anyway, we have a friend who is a physical therapist and she is who recommended his...
