    Hysterectomy?

    Thank you Debbie, that does help a lot - especially since I had it in my mind that I could probably start back to low impact stepping and upper body after about two weeks! I will follow your advice and listen to my surgeon:) Thanks! Lisa

    Hysterectomy?

    Hi everyone - I would love to hear from any of you that have had a hysterectomy what your recovery experience was. I have to have an abdominal hysterectomy in January. I'm keeping my ovaries so I don't have to worry about menopause yet, and I'm an OR nurse so I know exactly what is going to...

    Michelle Dozois?

    I have Breakthrough Step I and II, she switches off with Tracy York on both of these. They are fun if you like dancy choreography and not really high intensity, which would be good for easing back into working out. I pretty much never do weights with anyone but Cathe anymore because I'm always...

    advantages of ordering from Cathe.com?

    If you order directly from Cathe.com they guarantee their dvd's - they recently replaced one I had had for about two years and it suddenly stopped working. I sent it back and it was replaced free with no problem. Lisa

    Thank you chefkate!

    Hi Kate - I just wanted to thank you - you suggested the Sprint air card back in June when I was desperately searching for ways to get internet access in the boonies. I just got it and it works great! I'm so happy! Thank you!!!!! Lisa

    satellite internet

    Thank you for the advice - I am looking into the Sprint air card - that might be a solution. We have Verizon for our phone service but they don't offer DSL up here - they do about a mile away but not here. Thanks! Lisa

    satellite internet

    Hi everyone - I am moving to a rural area where DSL is not available. I can't go back to dial up, it's useless. I have researched Hughesnet and Wild Blue and have read both good and bad things about them, mostly bad. Does anyone have experience with either one of these, or do you have any...

    Book Recommendations, please

    The Falls by Joyce Carol Oates A Wedding in December by Anita Shreve Both are fiction with side stories based on historical events. The Falls is very long, I don't know what your time constraints are, but both were very good. And now, because of this thread, I will be going to the...

    Has anyone out there used Natural Progesterone Cream?

    RE: Has anyone out there used Natural Progesterone Crea... Hi - I have used progesterone cream for about a year and I definitely have decreased PMS/perimenopause symptoms when I use it, especially the weight gain and breast tenderness. I use the Long's Drug Store brand because it gives you a...

    Bare Escentuals Users

    Hi Rose 11 - maybe you can answer a question for me - how are you supposed to use the clear radiance? In place of the mineral veil or as a blush? I have it and I'm not sure I'm using it the way it was meant to be. Thanks! Lisa

    Low Max

    I would love to see more work outs like Low Max - I just did it yesterday after not doing it for a while and it is really a great workout - I can really get my heart rate up there without a lot of jarring to my 45-year-old joints. It also feels like I'm really working my legs. I hope to see...

    Is the Dyson Animal worth the $$?

    Anyone have a Bosu?

    Jo - your information is so helpful - I was wondering about the Rob Glick one because I have two of his step videos and I'm so-so about them, so will probably hold off on his Bosu videos for now. I was also wondering if I would be able to adapt any regular step videos - I have the ones you...
