Hello, Fashionistas. Anyone else loving boots this season? I have no problem finding great boots to wear with pants, but I went on the hunt for tall boots to wear with skirts and kept striking out because the boot shaft was too wide. Someone recommended a site called skinnylegboots.com...

Citing a study that questions whether all calories are truly alike and suggesting the possibility that carb calories cause obesity more than other calories. http://www.nytimes.com/2012/07/01/opinion/sunday/what-really-makes-us-fat.html?_r=1

Is there a good way to monitor my progress from post-surgery ground zero up? For example, maybe a gadget that monitors time, intensity, heart rate, etc. and then keeps the information and allows me to compare my workouts over time? On the gadget itself? On a website? I haven't been keeping...

Are there any videos on the market for intermediate to advanced exercisers who suffer from common, garden variety lower back pain and want to avoid making it worse? I do my best at modifying, but I'm never really sure how to modify correctly, and I never seem to get it right. Given that 50% of...

Not much varies in my diet from week to week. I have one breakfast that I eat, I have the same lunch about 4 out of 5 weekdays, and maybe 4 or 5 different dinners that I rotate. I do vary my evening fruit by season, but that's about it. I rarely get tired of something I really like. Guess...

I was researching the topic of why some people make a smacking sound when they eat, and almost everything I read assumed that it was voluntary and caused by "rudeness". That may be true in some cases, but during Thanksgiving dinner it occurred to me that the members of my family who smack are...

My DH went out and bought bags of chocolate, but I just bought bags of mini boxes of organic raisins, little bags of sliced apples and chocolate granola bars. Our apartment building is filled with really young trick-or-treaters this year; it seems like about 75% of them are 5 or younger. I'm a...

Has anyone here ever owned MBT shoes, and if so, do you think they are worth the price? My vacation is going to involve lots of walking, and I want to be sure I can keep up. TIA!

If I have 10 "likes" next to the picture of my Decalgirl skin by tomorrow, I get a free skin. Would you mind? Just click on the link and hit "like" next to the pic of my Kindle with the poolside skin. Apparently, I'm obsessed with Kindle accessories. :rolleyes: Can't help myself. I may...

It looks so cool, but how would I use it? As a mobile device: It would fit into my purse, and they make a nice cover to protect it, but I'm constantly running around and I can't imagine carrying another 1.5 lbs. in my bag. My Kindle weighs 10 oz. and even that feels a tad heavy sometimes...

My feet are hard to fit and cold weather shoes are hard for me to find. But when the summer shoes come out, it's much easier for me to find a good fit and I can't stop shopping! I want it all! T-straps, slip-ons, clogs, platform, strappy, wedges. Just give me the credit card and nobody gets...

Has anyone else tried this? It's a dream come true on busy mornings when I want to wear a skirt, but it seems like it's gone in about 4 shaves. The solid skin conditioner is a block that surrounds the blade, but the bottom part washes away while the top part of the block doesn't seem to get...

I had to see the oral surgeon this week, and I hadn't been there since 2007. I used to be a regular (don't ask), so they know me well. The surgeon's assistant said I looked great and that I actually looked younger than the last time she saw me and she wanted to know what it was. I haven't...

I'm reasonably content with my body as long as I'm consistent with my core exercises. (For the very first time in my life I actually have a 25" waist! I'm not the small waist type, and I was so surprised, I had to measure 3 times to believe it). So I'm good on the body front. But guess what...

I can't believe he died and we will never know more about Lisbeth Salander, one of my favorite characters of all time. Where do you go after Lisbeth Salander? What can you read and enjoy just as much? Any ideas? I fear all will pale in comparison.

I didn't want to respond to your thread on the Ask Cathe forum because it was a question for the group, not for Cathe, and I didn't want to clutter up her space so to speak. Just wanted to say that it sounds like you are eating like a bird! How do you keep going? :eek:

NOT!! Will someone please give me $32M to stop working?? Just sayin'.

Mine shipped yesterday. $11.99 on Amazon and I got free shipping! Can't wait to try it!

Now that the 5-day work week is fast approaching again, I was wondering if anyone has any tips for keeping up energy during the work week? I generally start off energetic and focused on Monday, and by Friday need an ambulance to transport me home. Does anyone else have this problem, and does...
