I used to be a 6 day a week Cathe addict. Some how 4-5 years ago I quit and started running. I have been running 6miles a day 5 days a week since. I add push ups and squats afterwards. I’m 44. I got the flu at the beginning of February and I have never been so sick. I quit running for 3 weeks...

Morning everyone! Hope everyone is doing well. We have a birthday party today and the famous rodeo tonight. We will see how that goes! Have a good one!

Hi all, Just thought I'd introduce myself. I have been a lurker here for a while, hoping that I would eventually be a poster too. We have a DD 6, DS, 4 and have been trying to have a 3rd for almost 4 years. Have had a couple miscarriages too. Anyway, I am 6 weeks today, and I feel so lousy...

I posted here about a month or 2 ago about if 35 was too old to have a baby. I got some great answers here that were positive. After 4 years of trying with 2 miscarriages we were getting really discouraged. We decided to go see a specialist in June for some help. Well, yesterday I woke up in...

My cousing gave me a 5 dvd set of Jillian Michaels workouts for my bday in april. Just tried the first 2 yesterday. WOW. I have watched Biggest Loser before but these workouts are a challenge. They are only 29-32 min long, so I did 2 for one day's workout. She splits them into working your...

Ok, I am thinking of starting a new rotation with the 4DS but I still am not able to lift very heavy weights due to a hernia, I don't use anything heavier than 10 dumbells and I can't lift anything greater than 8 over my head. All that being said, will the lifting portion of the 4DS be able to...

actually do the 40 min steady state run that Cathe sometimes puts in her rotations? I am doing the circuit city rotation and decided to actually do the run instead of substitute with another form of cardio like I always do. I ran 5 miles, and it took about 50 min instead. Wow, what a workout...

I was just taking a poll here of those of you that have had children over the age of 35. I am going to be 35 tomorrow, DH and I have been trying for 4 years for a third, and have been told that its very unlikely to become pregnant after 35 without "heroic" measures. We have recently begun the...

We are beginning the process of adoption at my house. We have a 6y/o and a 3 y/o (4 next month)of our own. We have been trying to add to our family the old fashioned way with no avail. We have decided on adoption, but don't have a lot of experience with the process for the adoptive parents. I...

This is week 3 of a 6 weeks cathe break. I replaced cathe with old taebo get ripped and live vol 1-12, and amy bento. I have to say that when i did the taebo videos 8-9 years ago they were much harder that they are now (thanks to cathe). I didn't care for amy bento the first few times I did...

I just found TLC on our direct tv and I watched it all night last night. For all you parents out there, watch an episode of Jon and Kate plus 8(children that is). It will make what goes on at your home absolutely tame in comparison. I don't know how they do it, God bless them, and I am so...

I am taking a break from Cathe. I think I need a twelve step program to assist me here. I have been training with her since 2003 non stop (except for pregnancy, colds, injuries, etc). I was beginning to hate working out period, didn't want to even look at my step or another weight. So I put...

I am thinking of buying the 4ds-the weight lifting portion for my DH and the cardio for me. Is this a good buy? I love the energy in Cathe's IMAX 2 and 3, kind of what I am looking for here too. Any opinions? Thanks!

Hi all. I haven't posted in a really, really long time. I have been recovering from some health problems. Anyway, for Christmss my inlaws gave me a Jack Lelane juicer. I have been using it since Christmas (they have been here at the house since Christmas!) and have been force feeding me...

Good Morning! Hope the weekend is going well. Yesterday was a rest day. We cleaned the garage and attic. Bake sale went good, I made a carrot cake and pineapple cake both with applesauce instead of oil. They turned out well. Thanks for the suggestions. The oatmeal cookies from Tosca's...

Good Morning! I think I beat Robin to the computer this am! My little guy starts preschool today! I thought I'd better get a head start! Hope everyone is feeling good after the long weekend and recovered from all we did, ate or didn't do! Work out- this week is a busy one so I am pulling...

Just hoping for some help with a weight training question for all of you out there. I have been having stomach problems, GERD for months now, with no relief even with major diet changes, Prevacid, apple cider vinegar, etc. I went to the Dr over a terrible cold, only to find out that I have a...

Okay, I have been reading on this forum about the water bottle/plastic contamination of our bottled water, and the suggestion to try different means to carry your water. I ordered a Kleen Kanteen for my DH and A Sigg for me after reading all of the info here. But my question is about Aluminium...

Ok, it has now been 96 hours since my treatment. WOW! I can't believe the change in my skin. NO new breakouts, and the peppering (the freckles and dark spots) that I was complaining about all came off last night when I washed my face. I have now changed my opinion of this procedure. I...

Well I did it. I went for my first of 3-5 laser resurfacings for the treatment of acne, brown spots, blah, blah blah. I was told to expect to look more freckled after the procedure until you skin flakes off, but OMG you should see me. I sure hope my acne improves, because I look not so good...
