Wow Nancy! It sounds like you are in super shape! Your BMI and waist-to-hip ration are great! Do you mind me asking if you have evaluated your expectations of yourself lately? Please don't put too much pressure on yourself to look a certain way, especially if your body isn't genetically...

Could someone please give me a brief description of Rhythmic Step. I am looking for a Cathe tape with all-step for a cardio day. I have her older step tapes which are great, but I really enjoy her newer tapes where she doesn't take time to break things down and add on. The time just seems to go...

Hi Jen, I just received Cardio Kicks and I love it! I was never a fan of Tae-Bo or floor aerobics, but I really enjoy this tape. It is one of my favorites now and I try to get it in 1-2x per week. God bless, Denise

I used Proactive for about six months and it did not work for me. I finally broke down and went to the dermatologist. Believe it or not, it is actually cheaper to use Differin (a prescription form of some type of Retin A)on a monthly basis than Proactive. God bless, Denise

Hi Kari, Boy, this is up my alley. I am a breast cancer survivor. I had two different oncologists, from two different offices, tell me to stay away from soy. They told me this even though my particular type of cancer was not "estrogen-sensitive". The FDA has labeled estrogen as a carcinogen...

Wow! This sounds just like me. My BMI is 27.4 but I wear a size 9-10. Granted, I could stand to loose 10-15 pds., but I don't think I'm as overweight as the chart says I am. I told a friend what I weighed and she gasped! She thought I was 20 pounds less. I have friends who are taller, weigh...

RE: Dml / Denise I'm doing great, thanks for asking. Coming up on 2 years cancer free. Yeah!!!! I met a lady who was waiting for all her hair to fall out so her grandkids could decorate it like an Easter egg!!!! FYI When hair comes back, it usually comes back nice. Mine was always thick, but...

Hi A-jock, Definitely go with the buzz. When I went through chemo I could not wear a wig. They have come such a long way but they still are uncomfortable. When I went out with my kids, I just wore a scarf. If you have not seen a "tlc" catalog, you need to order one. 1-800-850-9445. Tons of...

I had one a few years ago and gave it to my father-in-law after just a few months. It is adjustable for different intensity levels. I found I got very little out of it. The model I had I bought at a sporting goods store and you used your own body weight for resistance. You couldn't add weights...

Hi Marcia, I just started to really watch my carbs and up my protein. So far, so good. Of course, it has only been 2 days!!;-) I trying to just use whole wheat, fruits & veggies for my carbs. No more white bread or pasta:-( for me (I hope). It seems there is little choice for low carb when it...

RE: Protein & Other? Thanks for your help Francine! Denise

RE: Protein & Other? Hi Francine, Wow, Thanks for the info. That is just what I was looking for! My rotation plans for the week are Today MIC (step portion), T- Pyramid upper & lower, W- Step Max, Th Pyramid U&L, F-Boot Camp or Cardio & Weights, & Sat. IMAX 2. I was going to try and...

Hello, I have a question regarding protein. I've always kept an eye on my fat, calorie, and carb intake, but never really gave much thought to protein. While reading this forum, I have seen that you should have 1 gram of protein for each pound you weigh. Boy, I really fall short on that. Can...

Hello I believe a new catalog is being mailed this month to everyone on Cathe's mailing list. I can't wait! The picture of her old catalog is on the website (somewhere). I think it is a few years old.

Hi Nancy, I need to take it easy on my joints due to the effects of some chemo drugs I was on a few years back. I love IMAX 2. I just simply modify a lot of the higher impact moves (i.e. bring airborne jacks down to regular jacks or heel jacks). Some of the jump-turn type of movements (like...

RE: My story: thanks to Cathe & the Cathe-ites on the f... Donna, Thank you so much for sharing your story. What an inspiration you are! Denise:)

Hello Cathe, First, I have to say I LOVE the Intensity Series. What a great work-out!!!!! Second, my question. How old should a child/teen be before you let them use light weights? I have heard so many different things. My 11 year old son loves Boot Camp and wants to use light (1,3,&5 lb.)...

Aimee How exciting!!!!! I would love to hear about your experiences!! I know I'll never compete, but I would find it very motivating to hear what you do for training, and about your eating habits. Way to go!!! Denise

Thank you Deborah! Denise
