    HAWAII

    Ok, DH and DD have been to Hawaii 3 times in the past 7 years. Once to Maui and twice to Kauai. We would really like to move there in 4 years after DD graduates high school and hopefully still wants to go to collage in Hawaii! We LOVE Kauai but realistically cannot afford to live here. Very...

    Bikini Yuk!!

    I have been feeling really good about myself and so strong since doing STS. I'm almost finished with meso 3!! I feel like I'm in really great shape now, but I tried on bathing suits and I was disgusted! I know dressing room lights and mirrors are ruthless, but those 3 way mirrors showed parts of...

    Recovery week BINGE

    I have done so well with the STS system and love it. I was loving it so much I could not make myself take a recovery week between meso 1 and meso . Well by the end of meso 2 I was so tired I almost couldn't finish the last week! Well, decided I better rest a week before starting meso 3 and had...

    Mitotropin

    I have been seeing this stuff advertised in fitness magazines lately. The kit includes a 30 day supply of this stuff and it says it is a "pre-contest" formulation. Supposed to be for fat burning and "appetite killer"! Has anyone heard of this or used it? I thought it might be good to get me back...

    Eating on the night shift

    I am a nurse who works a night shift and I don't know what to eat! I try to eat a late dinner, usually around 8 or 9, but I get really hungry the rest of the night. I've been eating pretty good snacks- lots of granola bars and hot chocolate, but I'm gaining weight. I think I need more protein...

    Eating and the night shift

    I just started working the night shift (4pm-4am) and am having a hard time with scheduling my meals. I seem to be eating the same as always during the day and now add more food all during the night!. I try to eat dinner as late as I can at work, but still get hungry the rest of the night and...

    JEALOUSY

    My DH's best friend and his wife have never worked out much and have always commented on and admired my dedication to my workouts. The wife always states how she wishes she had my abs and admires how strong I am. (Of coarse I love that). Well, the past month or so due to changing jobs, a...

    How to get stronger

    I do 30-45 min. cardio on the 3 days I work (12 hr shifts) and do my weights 3 other days I'm off. I do 2 days upper body and one day lower using Cathe. I never use the same DVDs week to week. I continually alternate them. Last week PUB and PLB, this week Gym style series and next week something...

    Tennessee folks??

    I saw the post asking who was from Utah and I have always wondered this about us Tennesseens! Seems like no one near me cares a thing about exercise or fitness. No one I know ever exercises. They all eat terribly around here too-so much fat, lard, bacon grease and salt! I live 35 miles north of...

    New workout schedule

    I have only worked weekends for 5 years and I usually workout the other 5 days. I work a couple of body parts a day and legs once a week. I also do 30-60 minutes of cardio those days also. Now I will try to do 30-45 minutes of cardio before each of my 3 12 hr. shifts a week. This will leave me 3...

    DH wants me to quit exercising

    I know what most of you are going to think and say about this, but I had to vent to someone! My husband and I have been married 15 years and I have always exercised. I must admit though since starting Cathe a couple of years ago I have slowly started exercising longer and longer (usually 75-90...

    P90X wimp

    I have just finished week 4 of P90X. I really enjoy the workouts and can keep up with the weights and cardio, but the pullups and pushups I cannot do yet. I have to use the bands only for the pullups and can only do the pushups by modifying on my knees. I can't believe those girls on the tapes...

    Need my time with Cathe!!

    All I ask of my family (which only consists of my husband & 12 yr. old daughter) is to LEAVE ME ALONE for an hour or so a day to do my Cathe workout and them I'm theirs for the rest of the day! They think it is so terrible for me to take this time away from them! I try to get my daughter to...

    I'm hungry

    Does anyone have the crazy obsession of working out every day with Cathe and also being hungry all the time? I have such a hard time controlling my appetite! I always feel hungry. I'm obsessed with working out but also with food. I feel it's a never ending battle. Has anyone ever taken Meridia...
