Intuitive Eating I like what Nancy324 wrote above, but I'll also add - I understand wanting to be fit and strong and have fun while doing it (hence Cathe) - However, when researching fitness, it's way too easy to read about diets and programs and interval eating, etc. My advice: Get back to...

I'm a personal trainer and have browsed Cathe's site for a few years for personal and professional use. As a trainer, I know the basics work. But, there's always so much to learn, so I crave more reputable fitness/training resources. What are your favorite training resoures (besides...

Hi all ~ This is my first post on the new forum, so I'm excited to try it! Off the fitness topic though: My three-year-old Maine Coon mix who's never had health issues has developed gum issues. I noticed her smelly breath a couple months ago and thought it'd clear up (or thought I was just...

RE: For those of us with If anyone's curious about a BC Pill that helps with skin - YAZ. My dermatologist recommended Yaz, and my gynecologist was happy to prescribe it. It's a lower dose of Yasmin, but again - still excellent for skin. I've battled KP (Keratosis Pilaris) on the backs of my...

Listen to your body and take care! I'm an instructor and personal trainer, so I know how it feels to burn out on the same old thing. Sure, some of the traditional training works, but you gotta cross train and keep it fresh with new ideas. In the past year, I've gotten into yoga and Pilates...

Therapy, therapy, therapy! That's always my advice for four-year-old little boys! Seriously though, men (and women) are only going to seek guidance when one is ready. Growing up is hard, and if they stay in old childish patterns, they'll stay stagnant and miserable. And, ps - This...

Randi, Hi, kudos to you for getting help. I really like what Gail just said above. I work with people who struggle with the body wars, and I dealt with my own tribulations for years, but I am here to tell you IT DOES GET BETTER! Know that the steps you've taken are courageous, you are...

I'm 27. After years of sunbathing and tanning beds through the end of high school and lots in college (ahhhh!!!), I stopped. Something in me clicked to just accept my skin AND to see a dermatologists regularly (I've probably had 10 moles removed over the last six years). However, I'm not...

The others have given great suggestions above. I also had mine out in August 2001, I was 20. It might be different for someone a little younger like your daughter, but just a heads-up anyway: The first few days were like cake to me - I was still pretty medicated from the surgery, watched...

I've done the online dating thing on and off for one year. First, take it with a grain of salt. Be positive, hopeful, but just take it slowly, and put yourself out there in other ways, too. As far as writing your profile, it helps to have a good friend help! She can help highlight your...

Love the magazine's content regarding movement ideas, muscle illustrations, etc. HATE the advertisements. Matter of fact, it's been forever since I bought one (usually, I'll flip through to tweak my movement ideas), but I bought the latest issue and cringed while doing it. I hate...

I'm not sure how you can politely tell her she's chewing too loudly without tension building. Might be true, but how embarrassing. If it were me, I'd probably lean toward the passive agressive route (typically, not my fave choice, but...), and try something like: "Hey, I bet you have some...

NRGWoman ~ Congratulations!! Can you give us your background? What's your professional history, and what types of formats will you be presenting? What an amazing opportunity - I'm happy for you. :) Caroline

I'll chime in, too! I love your intention to save money and go to a studio. Most likely the studio will cater to all levels with experienced and thoroughly trained instructors. I take Pilates and also have just begun teaching Pilates. The major flaw for students (at any level) is doing...

Q: Do you stretch after every work out? Yes, I love to stretch after my workouts. But, sometimes, I'm in a rush, so I'd say about 30% of the time, I skip stretching. :o New Question: If your older self could say something to your present self, what kind of wisdom would she share...

Hooray! I like this post, too. And, I like this forum because I think Cathe is a fabulous teacher - while her workouts are intense, she also encourages balance by listening to your body to increase or decrease your effort(s). Additionally, there are some mighty funny posts here that give me...

I actually love the Austin Powers look. Just kidding! Thanks for posting this funny thread - what a way to wake up and drink coffee! It reminds me of Sex and the City when Charlotte makes Harry get rid of the hair on his back (it was Austin-like). I suppose I don't mind...

OH MY GOSH - Hallelujah, what a great movie for a change!! Go see it!!!!

Ronda, It's funny you ask. Just a few weeks ago I posted research questions on the recovery process from the body wars (including any extreme of EDs to all the various and many shades of gray) -- I'm helping to produce a film on the recovery process. My survey is closed, but if you want...
