    Four year old boy w/anorexia?

    Edited: Never mind. Everything I wrote has already been said more eloquently by many of the posts above mine....

    Who Looks Like you?

    Does everyone remember Susan Smith? The horrible woman who let her two sons drown and then lied and said she was carjacked (mid 1990s)? When that was in the news every day, people always told me I looked like her. I hated it! I've had more than a few people tell me that I look like some...

    New workouts on Fittv.

    It's a newer program called "All Star Workouts". It's a different instructor each day. I've seen the kickboxing, yoga, step, dance and bellydancing and fitness ball ones. The kickboxing seems to be the best one so far. I like the idea of these programs, but most of them are geared for...

    Large pores

    I have been really happy with the results I get from a drugstore microdermabrasion kit. I bought the one from L'Oreal and was surprised at how much it helped.

    Project Runway

    OOOh, this is my favorite show! Last season was so excellent. I miss Jay and Austin. I hate Santino! Doesn't he just look like he smells bad? I think (hope) they will keep him around because he's good tv and then kick him out right before the final 3. I would love it if Chloe, Daniel V...

    The Office

    I really enjoy this show. But I absolutely LOVE the BBC version. It is 10 times more cringe-worthy and the boss character is just hilarious. They can get away with a lot more than the US version. It was only on for two seasons and is out on DVD. I highly recommend renting it if you...

    step riser fit

    I also have the teal step. I have the risers that come with it, and they move a bit too. It's not a very tight fit. But don't worry, it's secure when you are jumping around on it!

    Gift Suggestion for hard to buy for people

    That's a very nice idea. Thanks for passing it along. Last year, my parents paid for 5 people in India to have life-saving surgery as my Xmas gift, and it was the best gift I've ever gotten! (It wasn't as expensive as you'd think)

    The Apprentice

    I have mixed feelings. I think Randal deserved to win, but I wish he had agreed to have Rebecca hired too. He was already named the winner, so it wouldn't have taken anything away from his accomplishment. I have a feeling The Donald was shocked that Randal said no. He was probably expecting...

    New workouts on FitTV.

    I've taped them all too, but haven't had a chance to try them yet. The cardio sport one looks like the most fun so far. I'm going to try it in the morning. I don't think I'm coordinated enough for the hip hop one. I watched a bit of the stability ball one, and I can't decide if it looks...

    This is fun - your theme song

    Fun! Mine is "Dizzy" by Tommy Roe. I have no idea what that song is. I decided to click on the British flag too and it was "Heard it Through the Grapevine" by Marvin Gaye. At least I recognize that one! I feel old!

    Hey New Yawkers: Strike?

    I am so lucky that I am only a 10 minute walk from my office on Wall Street. But one of my coworkers asked if she could stay with me if there was a strike! I barely know her and I don't have a place she could sleep, unless she's willing to sleep on my loveseat... Weird. I thought that was...

    What Magazines do you Read?

    Candi, I worked at US News & World Report for many years! It was the best job I've ever had.

    TIVO...do you have it? How do you like it?

    I LOVE it. It's one of those things like caller id - not a necessity, but you can't imagine how you ever lived without it. I don't have TIVO, I have DVR through my cable company and it's $8.95 a month added to my bill. The funniest thing is that I actually watch LESS tv, because I...

    Yogurt madness

    Oh, I'm the same way. Especially with ice cream. I buy Fage Total yogurt. It's unsweetened and has fewer carbs than any other yougurt I've seen. It's made with sheep's milk instead of cow milk, and doesn't have that yogurt-y aftertaste or fake flavor that so many brands have. I think it's...

    Crap. He's doing it to me again.

    Maximus, I also work for a municpal government agency. I am the executive assistant to the #2 guy here and he is a mulit-millionaire just doing this job to "give back" (he gets paid $1 dollar a year). So he is used to having everything done for him. He was giving me a lot of personal...

    If you were an animal....just for fun

    Anything that doesn't get eaten by other animals! Probably a really pampered lap-dog. Or a talking parrot with a naughty vocabulary.

    Boots for developed calves???

    Also, Ann Taylor and J Crew make extended shaft boots. Ann Taylors are less expensive and higher quality (in my opinion).

    Question about DOMS

    I only get DOMS in my abs (rarely). It doesn't matter how hard I work out or how heavy I lift. I see results, so I'm not going to worry about it. Funny, I did get DOMS in my forearm once after I went bowling for the first time in years.

    Weight loss supplement

    I think you are playing with fire! I tried it a few years ago and my heartrate went nuts. Also, once you go off them (and it is NOT good to take these pills long-term) you gain the weight back and then some. Please rethink taking these pills!
