Thanks a bunch Lois!

Hi all, This question is for Cathe or whoever else in this educated crowd can answer it. When doing a piece of fitness equipment, a fitness test, etc., and your aerobic capacity is referred to as 22 mets, what exactly does that mean? Thanks a bunch for your answer. Blessings, Denise

I did the high/low also. I thought it was an awesome combo!

I don't have Low Max, but on the Hardcore Extreme dvd, I really liked the Low Max/IMAX premix. It was a nice mix. Gave me a good chance to recover:P

Did you all know that tanning beds are on the FDA's list of known carcinogens?:o Wouldn't you think they would be illegal. Also, my good friend DIED of melanoma that her oncologist, a specialist in the field of melanoma, said was caused 100% from tanning bed use. Hmm, forget excessive tanning...

I don't have CoreMax and all I can say is OH MY GOSH!!!!! IS SHE JOKING???!!!???:o

Terminator -Love it! Won't ever trade it. Hard Core Extreme - Ditto Timesaver - Wasn't for me, but if you were interested in shorter work-outs, it would be great. I like longer ones when I do a video.

I'm right there with you. I'm 5'4", 170 pounds and wear a loose size 10. Go figure. I gave up on the scale. According to my BMI I'm in the obese category. It is very frustrating. I know I have to have a lot of "unseen" muscle in there. I just wish it would show itself!!!x( I'm healthy, I feel...

YOU GO GIRL!!!!! :)

What about the guy (yes, it is ALWAYS a man) that feels he can use 3 pieces of equipment at once, tying up the machine you're waiting for. i.e. using Smith machine for chest presses, then running over to the triceps pull down, leaving a workout mat or towel there so no one else will use it, then...

Hi Marion, According to those charts I'm obese. Now, admittedly, I do have some weight to loose, but OBESE?!?! I wear a size 10. I had my body fat analysis done by a personal trainer and I was within the "healthy" guidelines. 30% is when they start to worry about health issues and I was at 27%...

Hi Gina, Isn't that show awesome!! They didn't address the kidnapping and the thing in the jungle was on preview for next week. This week went into more detail about Kate. The obnoxious guy (can't remember his name, the "con artist") found a case that Kate wanted. Her and doc dug up the dead...

I used to work at Johns Hopkins for the Director of the Center for Alternatives to Animal Testing. This was a very noble, SENSIBLE cause. They looked for ways to do away with animal testing when alternatives could be used with just as accurate outcomes. When no alternatives were available, they...

Clare, It is definitely not for use around the eye area. My doc said you need something made specifically for that since it is so sensitive.

Hi Marion, I'm 40 and use it for acne, so my insurance covers it. My face looks sssooooooo much better. My pores shrank considerably. Face looks much smoother. I've been using it for about a year. My face peeled at first for a few months. I endured it (I did look like a snake shedding if I...

Hello, I have implants (mascectomy reconstruction) and they do not affect my workouts at all. After the initial recovery time, you can do anything physically you did before. I think it is important to balance your muscles out so I still do chest workouts, but since I'll always be "perky" I...

RE: Any of you experience hormonal changes at early 30'... Oh yeah! I hear ya!!! I never had zits until my early thirties. PMS really got much worse. I would scream at my kids the week before my period (and I'm not a screamer). Insomnia showed up (I NEVER had a problem sleeping). I would...

Hi, I was periomenopausal at 37. Menopause is when you have went 1 year without your period. I'm totally against any type of hormones but then again, I'm a breast cancer survivor and my oncologists told me not to touch hormones, soy, etc. For myself I just make sure I get 1200 mg of calcium a...

I'm right on the MD line in York County (Delta). I'm about 1/2 mile from Maryland. I didn't notice Tracy was in MD. I also belong to the homeschooling group in MD, Christian Home Educators Network (CHEN). They would be a SUPER group for you to check into Tracy www.chenmd.org . They have...

Hi Tracy, I would start at your local library. They have plenty of books on homeschooling there. Look for Mary Pride or Debra Bell books. Both are seasoned homeschool moms. I would go to www.hslda.org (homeschool legal defense fund). They have the laws for each state and I believe...
