    Atkins diet??

    hmm It wasn't starvation, it was malnourishment which caused my problems-- and the point of my posting was that I believe that-- in general, that's what these low-carb diets are selling.

    Atkins diet??

    a little clarity Sorry about that! I didn't mean to confuse you-- that's what I get for posting first thing in the morning! I think what I was trying to say was that the low carb diets work, and you can keep the weight off-- but you have to be careful with them. This is what I have to say...

    Atkins diet??

    Hey! I kept it off!! 60 pounds and counting for just about a year now-- but it's not the Atkins diet, its a combination of the "Carbohydrate Addicts Diet" and the low carb diet that my father was on when he did phen-fen. It does work, I will say that, it really really does. The weight FALLS...

    New to Cathe Videos

    tapes I am a total klutz so I can relate to this question!! My absolute favorite Cathe tape is Interval Max, it's not hard to learn at all and it will kick your butt every time. Powermax is probably my 2d favorite, but I have to say that it was not easy for me to get the hang of it-- it took...

    Step Works Experts??

    Seeing the post for MIC made me want to ask about Step Works. I have had this tape for a few months now and I just cannot get into it. I have other Cathe tapes, (MSB, Step Heat, Powermax, Wedding tape & Interval Max among them), but this one moves way too quickly for me and I haven't been able...

    A HEALTHIER EATING PROGRAM

    carbs and protein Hi Mary Ann, I have to say that I am no nutritionist, but I have been on a low-carb high protein program for some time now. The changes that I started with were eggs (or egg beaters) over bagels in the morning, chicken or tuna salad for lunch and then chicken or fish for...

    Bouncing Back

    Hi-- Has this ever happened to anyone? I'm a faithful exerciser and totally loyal to Cathe, and for the first time ever I was knocked out by the flu. It's been three weeks since I've been able to work out and (finally) next week I get to come back. Does anyone have any advice or suggestions...

    Interval max-very very tough

    it's awful..AND GREAT Interval Max..do you love it or do you hate it? Mostly I love it because it has boosted my fitness level by leaps and bounds (no pun intended)...but I hate it too because I can make it through about 1/2 the tape before I have to sit out some intervals. I can usually do 4...

    Creatine

    supplements Hi Kathleen.. I haven't tried Creatine yet, but I do know that there is a very good article about it in this month's issue of Shape. (If you haven't seen it yet) I am still focusing mainly on fat loss and tried a product containing Carnitine, which has produced tremendous results...

    Wedding Tape, Mega Step Blast, or Step Heat?

    couldn't agree more I have to agree with Lezly...you'll be fine. Don't be scared by the things you read about Cathe being too advanced, if you're that familiar with stepping, you'll love these tapes. I started with MSB and Step Heat, which I just LOVE. Step Heat is a little shorter which...

    Supplements

    I read the postings on the PR* bar program, but I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with other mass-marketed supplements, such as Met-Rx. Since I work out so often (6x a week, 3 weight training), I'm interested in trying supplements, or in building my own program, and I'm just...

    Tae Bo vid: Reckless?

    Tae-Bo or Not Tae-Bo... ...that IS the question, right? You might not like it-- but you did buy it, as I did and quickly discovered that it wasn't for me. You've got to hand it to Billy Blanks, though, for being either one of the best motivators around-- or for having one of the best...
