    New Workouts- On the Fence Help Me Decide

    Maybe I have missed some threads but am I the only one on the fence about purchasing the new workouts. I love Cathe so this is in no way meant to be to be negative. What is holding me back is that I think I will only use the High Rep and Total Body DVDs. The HITT does not appeal to me as much...

    whats so special about 3D movies?

    It is funny because the word crazy has come up in different conversations I have had with DH today. Heck, maybe I am crazy. I could try to somehow bring up the word crazy every time I see them. Thanks Ladies for helping make light of a silly incident.
