    The last two spots!!!

    Hi - I haven't posted in a while (going through some life-changing events in my life) but I often still lurk. I love this forum. I have managed to continue my workouts...somewhat. (lol) Well, anyway, just wanted to say that my daughter and I managed to snag the last two spots of the...

    P90X January Starters, Sat.

    Hey Everybody - It's a gorgeous day here in NYC. Perfect. 58 degrees, not a cloud in the sky, no wind......perfect. We're headed into Manhattan for a matinee and then dinner. Angie, thanks for the compliment and you're absolutely right - I'm very hard on myself and I need to lighten up...

    P90X January starters, Sunday

    Classic/Phase 2/Week 4/Recovery Week/Day 1 Good morning! I was surprised this wasn't started yet. Are you sleeping in Wendy? I did Stretch X yesterday instead of rest. I like that. But today..oh, the dreaded Yoga. I'll give it my all. I don't know what I'm going to do in place of...

    The Oprah Show today

    Disclaimer: I love Oprah!!! I know some people don't. And, I'm not usually star struck. I am star struck with Oprah. (Okay, maybe Richard Gere and George Clooney too, but that's it!) Today's show was so empowering to older women. It was such a nice show and discussed Dove's new...

    Cardio Coach - one question, please?

    In line with Shelley bringing up P90X, I also have a question that's probably been brought up about a million times. I did a half-hearted search but couldn't find the answer. Ok, finally the question. I don't do much cardio - actually I hardly do any. I should join the "I hate cardio...

    Kathy (Annabelle2)

    Hi - I've been reading BFFM recently and when checking your "check-ins" it seems that you eat a lot like the way he suggests. Are you following the plan? What do you use to check your BF? Do you feel it's accurate? Do you do it yourself? I think I may have a hard time with all of the...

    What's for dinner?

    Along the lines of the grocery shopping thread, what's everyone making for dinner? I have a hard time with the "what's" for dinner. I don't mind doing it (because I like to eat) it's the "what" that drives me insane. Sometimes I feel like I do circles in a grocery store, probably because I...

    The Magic Bullet

    Does anyone have one of these? It's one of those small blender-type things. The informercial makes it sound like you could blend just about anything with it. I hate leaving things out on my kitchen counter (almost as much as I hate even more having to pull out my huge blender.) I just...

    P90X Shoulders and Arms

    Hi Everybody - Okay, I just did this workout for the first time (it's the only one I've bought so far in the series) and, I don't know, if my arms arent hurting in the AM it may be the last time I do this workout. I found Tony to be a bit, uh, corny and just not Cathe. I'm spoiled, I guess.

    I still need help with Christmas present

    Hi - Remember me? Still looking to buy the best weights for my daughter. Now I'm leaning towards adjustable dumbells. Does anyone know anything about either the Stamina Versa Bell Set (it claims to change with the slip of a pin from 5 - 25 lbs.) or the Bowflex 220 Selecttech Dumbells (which...

    I want to buy....

    my daughter some of her own exercise equipment for Christmas. She needs some weights - she has 5's and 10's and I'd like to buy 8's, 12's, 15's and maybe 20's. I'm also thinking about a bar for her and I don't know much about these either. (My bar is one my husband salvaged from someone -...

    Lean, Long and Strong

    I borrowed this book from the library the other day. I haven't tried the concept yet, but it does look interesting. Since I have a hard time exercising "from a book", I emailed the author about the possibility of making a video. She wrote back that she was in the process right now. She's...

    Portion control

    I am one of the cleanest eaters I know, with the exception of most of you Catheites, that is. My problem is portion control. For example, tonight I made a turkey chili loaded (and I mean loaded) with vegetables. You could barely find the turkey. On the side I made brown rice. I am...
