    weight gain

    Like Candi, I turned 50 this year and also started the 'upward climb' at about 42-43. I do run, but I also rely on weights to help me with this problem. I don't know WHAT size I'd be without BOTH! ;-) I am also interested to hear what Cathe will say about this. It is amazing how...

    A sincere thanks!

    Oh, that is too cute! My two football playing teenaged boys tried to do Cathe with me once, on a dare. They were DYING! I think it was Bootcamp. They have a newfound respect for workout vids (well, Cathe's ) and ME and home workouts. Their tummies were really sweaty.....

    RE: I haven't seen 'Gee, your hair smells terrific' in stores, but they had it recently at The Vermont Country Store online. They try to find hard to find products or discontinued things.

    Hilary Swank in 'Million Dollar Baby'

    Hilary looked great before............but isn't amazing what 19# of muscle can do? I don't know why people pay so much attention to the scale. It is such a poor indicator of body fat/muscle ratio and fitness.

    Tell me if this annoys you as much as it does me

    My dh is VERY out of shape and overweight, yet 'because he played football' he is able to tell me all about fitness and form and weight training!;-) I have been running for 8 years and weight lifting for 17 years. But he knows everything......... :+

    I love him, but he drives me NUTS!

    I've got a nice quiet older Lab. It takes someone pretty menacing looking to get the hair up oin his back, much less make him bark. However, I HAVE seen him get that way, and boy howdy, I wouldn't want to be the stranger he's after!:7 Now that my kids are grown, I'm glad the house is quiet...

    Barely containing myself!!

    Isn't it funny how many of us (all of us) like to get new Cathe DVD's for holidays? Other people who aren't of this persuasion, would look at their dh and say---' let me get this straight.....you want me to pop this in.....and sweat bullets........and gasp for air......and take it to the...
