Hey Cathe! It's been a while since I posted. I noticed on FitTV (I admit I was watching while with a friend and not doing the workout...) that you did some exercise that looked to be an inverted push-up I THINK, off the high step. What workout DVD is this from? My friend and I were quite...

Hey LizN! It's Jen from Chicago. I used to be on Cathe's site more often but 2 kids and some physical health issues have taken there toll of the last few years (as I'm sure you can imagine!). Anyhoo, wanted to know if you could e-mail me at [email protected] re: LLSS. Thanks, jeni...

Hello girls. My name is Jeni and I am a certified Healthy Moms instructor and personal trainer. I have not posted in some time but thought this the perfect place to get some much needed advice. I have 2 beautiful little girls (got number 2 after 2 miscarriages) and both girls were born via...

Hi all! I haven't posted in a while but I just wanted to send this e-mail out. I'm a personal trainer and a Healthy MOMs certified instructor. One of my client's is an OB/GYN here in Chicago and I trained her from week 12 until one month ago when she gave birth to her first child. We just had...

Hi all. It's been a couple weeks since I posted. I found out in early January that I miscarried about 3 weeks prior. I wanted to wait until I had my D & C and was feeling "normal" again to post. It was a long couple of weeks but DH, DD and I are doing well and I am praying for God's guidance...

Good morning ladies!! I've posted here sporadically in the last tear since I had my daughter, Olivia, but I had to come on-line to say that I am pregnant with #2! I'm real early - like in the gestational period of the first two weeks! No symptoms yet - just a lot of happiness and a little...

Hey everyone! I'm am coming to the forum because this has always been the best place for me to get answers to all pregnancy/parenting questions! This week I will be traveling with my husband and daughter for the first time on a plane, to California (4 1/2 hour flight). Olivia will be 11...

Well, many of you are new but I was a regular "poster" before my daugter, Olivia Rose, was born on 9/14/02. I was NOT prepared for the demands of parenting and the challenges of balance part-time work and being a momma and computer time. WHEW!! Anyhoo, since Olivia was born I took Sheila's...

Hello Cathe and all!!! I've been meaning to send this post for a couple weeks. In the last 7 months I have been transitioning into new motherhood and decided to return to fitness as my "full-time" career so I could spend more time with my daughter. Well, I decided to ad Sheila's HealthyMoms...

Hi Cathe! I hope this is not billionth question regarding the mini step! I have been off the circuits here for a while and wanted to know the status on this product. Do you know when it is to be available? Thanks! jeni

Hey all! It has been a LONG time since I have posted...but I wanted to come on and say the I passed the ACE Personal Trainer certification! That's part of why I've been gone! I must say that trying to study with a new baby (ages 3 months to 5 months while studying) was QUITE the challenge...

Well...I've completed the homestudy HealthyMoms certification and putting it in the 5:00 pm mail! I'm thrilled to be done although I am taking the actual course here in Chicago in April. I must say, WOW SHEILA. I feel so KNOWLEDGEABLE and will feel very confident in providing classes if I...

Hello ladies! I am just wondering how all of you are doing with your c-section "pooches"?! Mine is still there (sometimes more obvious than others) and I'm getting bored of my abdominal routines. What are you all doing to target that area? Is it working? Is it hopeless? I'm sure it's not...

Just wondering if anyone knows if Fitnik had her baby and if so, how things went and are.... jeni

I am truly sorry to have offended anyone using this product. Yes, I use Shaklee but I don't distribute. I am a researcher so I appreciate their expertise in product development in this area. More importantly, I am a fitness instructor and it would be unethical for me to support the use of...

Hey all, I just HAD to send this e-mail because it seems "suspect" that this company puts all that they do into their products. The best advice I was ever given about supplements is KNOW YOUR COMPANY!!!!!!!!!!!! Are the vitamins bioavailable? Put it in water and make sure it breaks down in...

Hi all, sorry if this is too personal but I'm really stressed about this. I had my first baby 9 weeks ago via c-section. 7 weeks post partum I had my pap smear and it was VERY uncomfortable with a "pinching" sensation on my cervix. My doctor found a better angle and then all was o.k. (not...

Hi Cathe! You mentioned in one of your posts that you use a wide range of dumbells for the Pyramid sets (as I can see from the pictures!). What range are you talking about? I'd like to make sure I have the necessary weights by the time my order arrives. Thanks! jeni

Does anyone know where I can get the bench used in the pyramid upper body photo clip? I know at some point it was found in Cathe's equipment link but I don't see it now. Thanks! jeni

Well SNM, you hinted at this so I must ask!!!...when do you plan to offer the "ministep" or when will it be available from the The Step company or whoever will sell it? Thanks! jeni
