OMG! I have such terrible indigestion. I've been sipping ginger ale for two days now. Yesterday I made a pot of black bean soup using dried beans that I cooked ahead of time. After eating some I developed serious indigestion, but figured it was just a one-time thing. I had more soup today...

Would you consider the bootcamp cardio section in Kickmax to be HIIT? I'm planning a HIIT rotation for two months and aside from running sprints both outside and on my treadmill I'm looking for other ways to get my intervals in. I don't have a functioning bike right now, so I was wondering if...

I usually take note of your sage advice when it comes to exercises that may not be safe to do and as I recall you have this series. Are there any exercises that you would consider unsafe in BBC? None of them seem to give me any trouble, but I don't want to set myself up for an injury either...

I'm hoping I'm on the mailing list, as I've bought every DVD from her, but I live in CT and usually it only takes a day to get something from her. So far, I haven't received the catalog and I understand they started sending them out last week. I couldn't find a place on her site to order from...

I'm currently in the first week of a P90X Classic rotation. Today I should have done Legs and Back but I was in a cardio mood, so I did Kenpo. Tomorrow I'll finish the week with L&B and Sunday will be a much deserved rest day with the family. What's everyone else doing?

Cathe has been very quiet on the boards lately and I can almost bet my sister's cat (sorry, I don't have pets) that she's got a new series in the works. Want to bet she announces something by the end of the month? Anyone???

Hi Cathe! I just finished Drill Max and I'm lucky I have the strength to type this! You have humbled me! I have all of your workouts and until today I have been able to complete all of them with energy to spare. Doing DM today I must have gulped 3 glasses of water and paused the DVD eight...

Hi Everyone! I was away from the computer yesterday and just had the chance to catch up and read everyone's posts from yesterday. I really enjoyed reading about everyone's hedonistic pleasures. They were all so eloquently written, and I could easily imagine myself enjoying them with you...

Hi all! Thought I'd start it today. Just came back from volunteering at my DD's school. It's cold out! I wanted to go for a walk but with the temp being 17 degrees I think I'll pass. It so hard to recruit neighbors into walking with me during the winter. I like the companionship though...

Hi everyone! Just got back from a 4 mile walk. I had to burn off that pizza from last night. It was delicious, nice thin crust, fresh tomato and mozzarella, with lots of fresh basil. I've been good today, so far. Had two whole grain waffles with peanut butter and a couple of veggie sausages...

It's whole. Can I sprinkle it as is onto my oatmeal, cereal, etc., or, do I have to grind it to get all the benefits. I don't have a spice grinder and don't want to buy one. Any advice? TIA!

I'm about to start a P90X rotation and was wondering what everyone thought about this workout. I've never previewed it because it's so long, but I have heard from a few people on another board that it was a waste of time. I have a million yoga workouts that I could sub for it, but if the...

Didn't see a thread on this yet so I thought I'd start it. I ate pretty clean yesterday. By that I mean no sugar, no alcohol, no processed food. I'm hoping to continue that today. So far I had scrambled egg whites and Ezekial bread for breakfast, and a bowl of low fat broccoli soup and a...

I've searched some recipes for crockpot oats and most include half and half or cream, along with water. I want to skip the cream and just use water. What's your usual ratio of water to oats for the crockpot? It looks like you need more water than traditional old fashioned oats. TIA!

My mom just informed me that my favorite whole grain wheat bread lists high fructose corn syrup as it's third ingredient! I never thought to check for it because I was more concerned that the bread have lots of fiber, which it does, but it also has that crap in it. She switched to Arnold whole...

My 3rd grade DD is having trouble with grammar. She was tested and is at a 1st grade comprehensive reading level. She's also having difficulty with sentence structure and editing. She doesn't understand when to insert commas, periods, capitalize, etc. I'm not much help in this department...

Mine skip in a couple of places but don't freeze. I'm thinking I'll probably go ahead and replace them because I'm concerned that there may be problems down the road if I buy a new DVD player. What will you do?

Where should I feel it? I feel it mostly in my back leg but should I be feeling it more in the front? Also my back seems to arch a lot. Should I use a wider stance or a lower step height. TIA!

Just finished this about an hour ago and I'm a wet mess! I hope I can walk tomorrow! I usually hate and avoid leg workouts (although it is the area I need help the most! Why is that always the case?!) but I think if I stick to this workout and do it at least once a week I should start seeing...

So far, I haven't noticed a freeze problem with LIC or BM2, however my player does skip during cardio 4 in BM2. It happens when she does jumping jacks. It's not a layer change because I've noticed those before and this is different. It's a break because one minute she's doing a jack and then...
