Hello Cathe fans! It's been ages since I've visited these awesome forums! Brings back great memories. I'm reading a book called Lifting Heavy Things about using weight lifting to release trauma. This is why I'm here. I'm looking for a HAES and trauma informed personal trainer to help me...

Hello fellow Cathletes! It's been too long since I posted anything here, but I do lurk a few times a week. I've got a question and I know this educated crowd is the right group to ask! ;) I'm almost through with my chemo treatments, my final (sixth) treatment is next Wednesday. My oncologist...

and I'm ready for a Cathe workout!! After a week of laying in bed and dealing with bone pain and numbness I am finally feeling human again! It's a happy day! :D I'm having some issues with my blood sugars- mostly due to the steroids- and a nurse reminded me today that exercising helps your...

I'm currently going through chemo treatment, and I'm sure that other Cathletes are dealing with cancer treatments too. I was wondering if anyone thinks a 'daily' check in thread/support group would be helpful? I think it would for me, but I'm not sure I will have time every day to check...

I haven't been doing regular Cathe workouts for about 5 months, due to a cancer recurrence and getting treatment. I posted here last week and was wonderfully overwhelmed with welcome, kindness and encouragements. Thank you all, again, so much! You all have motivated me SO MUCH this week! I've...

I haven't been active on this fantabulous forum in a long time, but I think it's time for me to reach out again. Allow me to introduce myself, I'm Connie. I'm a 35 year old, single, without kids, overweight woman who is in the middle of cancer treatment. I recently moved back home to Tennessee...

today. Wowie! What a fun and all-round challenging workout! My mind and my body felt well challenged. I decided for the sake of my kness that I shouldn't use the step at all and I'm glad I did. I struggled with the choregraphy of combos 3 and 4, but I figured most Catheites did so I was in good...

who obsessively logs into the Chat room? :p I think that's such a cool new part of CatheNation. Maybe no one else shares my sometimes odd work schedule? Maybe I am just a lonely loser? :D:confused: HA! I just tried to submit this post...and got busted for having too many smilies! Hmmm...:p...

I bought a pair of Air Pegasus for workouts, the first and only pair of Nikes that have EVER fit me well. Usually only New Balance work for me, but I digress. Unfortunately, I'm not cool enough to have or know much about iPods. So the poor sales lady at Lady Foot Locker had to explain to me...

I'm stuck in another funk yet again. I started Body for Life for Women about 2 weeks ago, and really enjoyed it. It's a wonderful program/way of life for me. However for some reason I just can't seem to stick to anything. I've been worried about some personal life issues...and feeling sad for...

Getting us started for this Memorial Monday... BRB

not having Butts & Guts so I found an awesome deal on a new one at amazon.com and bought it for myself yesterday. Whoohooo!! I even had a $5 gift code so I got free shipping! I'm excited...and terrified! }( :7 }( :D Just had to share with my fellow Cathe fans!!

I think I did it...I think I may have actually figured out how to insert a link to my picturetrail album on my Cathe signature! :o Enjoy the pictures of my new niece, sisters, and oldest niece (who will be 2 on June 1st)! :)

Yay, I get to start the thread this morning!! :) BRB

and her name is Kallie Sue, she weighs 6 pounds 2 ounces, has blonde hair and blue eyes. She's adorable!! Mom and Kallie are both very healthy, yay!! My next trip 'home' is June 25th. I'm going for my other sister's wedding. I was able to shuffle my work schedule so I'll be able to be gone...

and I'm having a bit of an emotional meltdown. x( :P Which led, of course, to junk food. Here's the story... My sister is 38 weeks pregnant...she called me yesterday around 5pm to say that she's being admitted to the labor and delivery early because she has pregnancy induced high blood pressure...

I'm on Day 3 of the meal plan, and am looking for a buddy to go through this 12 week challenge with me. Anyone interested? I'm going to loosely follow the exercise plan, too. I'm not quite ready to do the full on exercise plan, because I'm in the final stages of recovering from surgery...

I'm helping a friend get a new business off the ground. I'm good at paperwork, organization, and details...he's the "talent" of the business. The business is stress relief and relaxation training, and selling semi-precious stone handmade jewelry. I need some help getting the accounting...

Just when I think she can't top herself...there she is on the STS Blog doing a pull up HANGING in the air 'sitting' cross legged!! :o WOW! If I tried that I'm certain my arms would be hanging detached from my body...:+ :7 . Rock on, Cathe, rock on!! \ooo/ Thank you for all the inspiration and...
