    Oh man! I can't believe this!!!!

    Has anyone read the Eat Right for Your Type book? I've read some of it and thyroid condition is one of the first things I noticed for Type Os. The author seems to be pretty knowledgeable about thyroid condition and what not to eat. I also remember reading that cabbage and cauliflower are not...

    gotta get an MRI

    I had an MRI once. Since I was so nervous about it, my doctor's office found an open MRI place for me. They have machines that are not fully enclosed. You should ask your doctor's office to find you one of those. I have to admit, I could have easily went to sleep in there. Good Luck!!!

    Which household chore to you let slide longer than you should?

    Sherry, I do the exact same thing with the bathtub. Huge tubs are nice but are so hard to clean. In order to do a good job of cleaning it, you have to get back in the tub (with socks on). I'm really terrible about dusting. I go weeks at a time before doing that.

    Enough stretching

    I didn't hurt at all. It just felt very uncomfortable while I was driving or doing anything that caused me to bend my arms. Whenever I could I would stretch my arms and it felt so much better. I'm doing it again tomorrow and I'm going to try doing the downward dog to see if that helps. I...

    Enough stretching

    I think you're right Catwoman. I didn't think about it until I read your post, but my arms do feel alot better now. I also think I could have went a little lighter on the weights. I couldn't finish the bicep portion of the workout because a got a bad case of nauseau. I wish I had written...

    Enough stretching

    Just wondering if any of you have experienced this..... After doing PUB 5:00 this morning, I feel as if I want to keep my arms outstretched. The whole time while driving to work (which takes an hour), I just wanted to stretch my arms out. Does this means that I didn't do enough stretches...

    Newbie question

    Could someone please tell me what Premixes are? I was happy to read that they are included on the new DVDs. Sounds like more workout options to me. I'm just not sure what they are.

    CTX 2!!!!

    I vote for CTX2 also. How about 3 different cardios on one DVD with weight workouts on the second. One 30-minute, one 45-minute and one 60/90 minute cardio session. That would be great! Talk about getting everything in one purchase.

    Pointers for tricep pushups

    Thanks for the response Cathe. I will definitely try the tricep push up "see saw". I've tried the bent knees and although it does take the pressure off my lower back, it doesn't really help my form much. Could someone please tell me which DVD has the Supersets workout. So far the only DVDs...

    Pointers for tricep pushups

    Hi Cathe! This morning while doing the tricep section of the 10-10-10 workout I noticed that while I'm doing the tricep pushups, I have a hard time bringing my hands straight down and keeping my elbows close to my side. I think the problem is that I have an arch in my lower back. Whenever I...

    CTX Rotation

    Thanks for the reply. I'm so excited! I've finally learned enough of Cathe's steps to get me through some of her cardio workouts. Now that I'm incorporating weight work, I feel like I'm finally getting somewhere. In one of her workouts she says, "Happiness is knowing what step is coming...

    CTX Rotation

    I purchased the CTX set a couple of weeks ago and finally managed to get through most of the cardio sections this weeks. What an accomplishment! The first three days I did the Circuit Circuit, 10-10-10 and CTX Step. On the fourth day I did Leaner Legs and Upper Body Split yesterday. I've...
