Hi Beth!

Great thread! I have really enjoyed "meeting" and getting to know everyone.

My name is Jen. I have been married 20 years (this year) to a wonderful man whom I still love and admire! (WOW) We have 4 great kids 2 boys and 2 girls who are 14, 13 11, and 8 years old. I'm a SAHM and do not know what I want to do when I grow up. We also have a black lab mix from the pound who we love and 2 cats who seem pleased by the service they receive. I grew up in FL, but for the past 23 years have lived in 10 different places. At the moment we live in CT, which is great we can get into the city (NY) in about an hour. I love all types of music from classical, opera to alternative rock and country. I just can't stand rap!
I work out mostly to Cathe and just love this forum!

No kids, but 2 cats we couldn't love any more than we do. DH and I met in 1998, moved in together soon after, and have been married since November 2002.
I really don't listen to music, never have, really. I don't dislike it at all, just don't turn it on. I listen to the news in my car.
I'd love to have a treadmill, since I really like to run, but no money or space for that right now. I'm in law school and hate that, but I still have 2.5 years left until I'm done.

I gave up diet sodas a little before Christmas this year, and only drink tea, water, and sparkling water these days.
I've had insulin dependent diabetes for 18 years this March. I wear an insulin pump 24 hours a day. I love it- I'm able to be flexible with the food I eat and my workouts.

I am Cheryl, live in Michigan

I have been a member of this forum since Jan 1, 2000 - I check the forums on a daily (sometimes hourly) basis - but post minimally

Started to do Cathe when Step Heat came out (1995), she has allowed me to workout at home and quit the club scene in April, 1997

Just turned 50 in December - been married for 30 years ( to the same man) - I have 10 children - 7 of which are at home yet.

I am a homeschooling SAHM.

I love everything there is about exercise - especially the end results!

I absolutely love these forums and all of you women and the wonderful comments and all of the encouragement - even though there are blow outs on occasion - everyone tends to make up.

We can all agree to disagree - but I think we all agree that we are exercise fanatics and Cathe fanatics and that is all that matters.

I test for my black belt in kickboxing karate in April
 
Hi!

Until this very moment I have been a lurker! So here goes my first post...

I'm Tina.
I live in GA.
I'm graduating med school in MAY!!!!
I'm 26.
I have NO children- I'm still a child!
I am getting married in MAY (May is a BIG month!). I have been following my df around since I was 13. Dated him on and off since I was 16!!! Ten years later, I have finally roped him in (That was more work than school)
I listen to all kinds of music- led zep, frank sinatra, kylie m., etc.
I workout at home, at the gym.
I found Cathe while on a L&D rotation. I was living in a hospital room in rural(understatement) GA and desperately needing a workout. FitTv helped me stay sane!
