Kimbra, I am a lifetime WW member, having lost, and kept off 90+ pounds over the last 4 years. Last fall, due to a lot of work related stress and an injury sidelining me for awhile, I gained back 25 pounds. When I had lost weight before, I followed the points plan, and it worked, but I had the...

RE: Are you having problems with low music w/ the Hard ... No problems with the music level. In fact, I have done IMAX 3 and LowMax and was still able to hear the music over the sound of my heartbeat crashing in my head!! I've previewed all the others, and they are, thankfully, fine. I have...

Hi Sharon, the Moncton and Amherst Ys both do fitness instructor courses several times a year. Sometimes they schedule the theory portion over two Saturdays as opposed to over a series of weeknights. Given your location, that may be an option for you. Then you need to complete the practical...

Hey Sherry, we are neighbours, how cool! The Amherst Frenchy's is a favourite stop of mine. I work just up the street. You are the closest "Catheite" I've heard of. I teach fitness classes at the Amherst YMCA (including a Hi Step Challenge which is very a la Cathe) and have certainly spread...

Hey Lorihart and Dixiedog, had to jump in and say "Hi". Not only am I also waiting not so patiently for my CKSales order, and checking for updates constantly, I am a fellow Atlantic Canadian. I am in northern Nova Scotia, so am practically Dixiedog's neighbour. With the bridge, Summerside is...

Mine did too! I guess there will be some sweating and jumping in the Maritimes tonight!! Have fun. Cindy

Hey Dixiedog, I am in Amherst, N.S. and still no sign of my CKSales order. Where abouts on the Island are you? Cindy

RE: 10 Things about you that we Catheites may or may no... I can't resist - What a great idea. Here goes: 1. I am Canadian - living in Nova Scotia 2. I am 36 years old 3. Have been happily married for 11 years to a man who is getting better looking every day! 4. I have a son 8 and...

Hi Cathe. This is MollyKate. Mommy is helping me write this. I am almost 5. Just like Kayla, I think you are great! I love to watch Mommy exercise with you, she sure gets sweaty! Thanks for helping Mommy exercise, she sure loves your videos, and so do I. From MollyKate

Yippee!!! I am in Nova Scotia. If the DVD's hit TO on Saturday, then maybe, maybe, I could have mine on Tuesday!!! Thanks for the info Shaan, I'll be running to the mail starting Monday a.m. Thanks, Cindy

Hi Guys, I had to chime in from "Lurker's land" on this topic. It is so wonderful to see others who, despite being told of their "obsessive" behaviour, refuse to see regular exercise as negative. I was a fat inactive child, and not surprisingly, a miserable self-conscious teenager. In...

Hi Guys! I'm signing in from the East Coast, from Amherst, Nova Scotia, a small town of 10,000 on the border of N.S. and New Brunswick. I am 35, married to a fantastic guy, with a son 7 and daughter 4. I discovered Cathe back in the late 80's and actually still have her "Fit and Firm" and...

Hi Lori, I don't have an answer to your friend's problem. But I did want to cheer you up and let you know I received my DVDs from CKSales yesterday. You're in Nfld right? I'm in Nova Scotia, so it can't be long now!!!! The Terminator is fantastic (sorry to increase your agony waiting) Cindy

Lori, Lori, Lori, I am sitting here dying with envy!!!! I saw Blue Rodeo about 2 weeks ago in Moncton, NB. Isn't Jim Cuddy to die for!! They sang "Bad Timing" and it was amazing. In fact, every song was fantastic. Totally cool that you got backstage. I have loved Blue Rodeo since I first...

Hi Helene, I've been off-line for a day or so due to the icestorm. I have a catalogue for a place in Quebec called "Muscle Up Canada" and they sell all kinds of fitness gear, including medicine balls of various weights. They are all in metric weights so I have asked my DH to do the conversion...

Hi Beth, I'm in Amherst, born and bred, except for university years in Halifax. I have had Imax2, and C&W on VHS. After reading all the reviews I ordered the Terminator and BootCamp DVDs this afternoon. Now I have to find a medicine ball, which I'm sure my kids will think is another toy. My...

Hey Beth, had to respond to your post. I am in NS too, and also battle with Caillou. What part of the province are you in? Cindy:-)

Hi Lori and Helene, its fantastic to find other Cathe fans in the Great White North! Her workouts really gets you in shape for the snow shovelling!!! What a coincidence Helene, I just started a rotation last week with StepFit!! Took some serious rewinding on those flying angels, but finally...

I am a big time lurker, but just had to respond to this post. I am a longtime Cathe fan and instructor posting from very cold and snowy Nova Scotia. I'm practically Lori's neighbour!!!! I love these forums, review them daily, and get so excited to see other Canadian Cathe fans. Cindy

Hi Cbelle, Congrats on combining WW with Cathe. Its a winning combination. I lost 75 pounds doing the combo and have kept it off, with a few 5 pound "swings" for a year now. In terms of Activity points, after a few weeks, I received an exercise counter with divided activities into Light...
