I have a recently diagnosed stress fracture of the third metatarsal in my right foot. I have to be in a moon boot for the next eight to nine weeks and was hoping for some suggestions for working out with this injury. I have all of Cathe’s dvds and prior to this injury was considering a Cathe...

My two year old has several Wiggles DVDs and we will often follow their dances together to one or two songs. Yesterday we had a rainy day and getting outside to play was proving to be a bit difficult. I thought it would be fun for us to dance together to the whole DVD and wow - what a workout...

I am struggling to lose about 10lbs that I have gained over the last 6 months or so. I am 42 years old and had my third child two years ago. I breastfed him for about 16 months and returned to my pre-pregnancy weight quite quickly. Over the last few months though, I have found my hunger...

My DD sent me a message yesterday to tell me that Cathe was at her uni lecture (way over here in Australia). I was so excited (even briefly planning on heading down to the uni myself)when she explained that there was a photo slide of Cathe as an example of a very fit and active person (to say...

My SO has always had a healthy regard for his own opinion, however, recently he has become a real "know it all". He will never admit to being wrong even when it is clear (later on) that he was - he will even claim that that is what he said all along! Nobody can tell him anything - he...

Hi Cathe Thank you for providing such an interesting and challenging variety of exercise DVDs - you and your team are truly inspirational! My question concerns two painful episodes of intercostal muscle strain that I have experienced since my third child was born 18 months ago. The...

Hi all I was wondering if anyone else had experienced this or can offer any advice. I am eight weeks postpartum and have just had a routine fasting blood test as part of my postpartum check up. My cholesterol level is high (and so is my blood pressure). My doctor has given me nutritional...

I got a little surprise last weekend when I discovered I was pregnant (my youngest is 14!). I was initially in shock but am now very excited about our miracle pregnancy. I wonder if anybody is aware if flaxseeds contain folic acid - I am now taking a folate supplement but have taken 2...
