    LAST EDITED ON Apr-01-02 AT 07:25PM (Est)[p]I just started doing Cathe's Wedding tape and invested in the Reebok Step System and it starts at 6". (I was using my old Bollinger small step at 4".) Who would have thought that 2" could make such a difference! LOL Zeesh! I could hardly make it...

    Cathe's Wedding Tape

    Hi all- I'm new to "Cathe" and just received the Wedding Tape. I'm so pleasantly surprised by the normal, everyday people that Cathe has working out on this tape. I get just a bit discouraged when I work out with other tapes that have these VERY slender, beautiful women who remained...

    Curves for Women?

    I joined our local Curves last year, but I went every day and watched what I ate. I lost about 3 1/2" in 3 months or so. But, and this could have been due to the time I was going, it was mostly elderly ladies who loved to meet and chit-chat! :-) think it is a fine place for beginners and/or...
