I live in PA and we have had such mild weather....in the high 60's some days. I do not like it cold, but the snow is what keeps us out of drought (is that spelled right) mode in the spring. All of this rain is great, but in a few days, the water table goes down and we need more rain. If we...

I used to be an avid Cathe cardio girl. I still use her strength trainning videos, but I started running a few years ago and stopped using her videos. My question is this.....I am looking to get some new DVD's from her, but I don't want any step videos. What would you recommend? I also...

A good topic might be that a little prevention is the best medicine. Keeping yourself in shape now will benefit you 10 fold when you get older. I am 37...certainly not old....but I have started to look at working out differently. It is not just about looking good in my clothes but also about...

Have you ever had your thyroid checked? If your thyroid is off, it could be a reason why you are getting migraines. My cousin always had horrible migraines. She had her thyroid checked (problems run in the family) and hers was off the chart bad. Your levels should be around 3.0, but each...

I have a family across the street from me who met on one of those "internet match services". I say family because they just had their first baby 6 months ago. It is hard to find a mate in the world today. Where do you go...the gym, the bars, the mall? You of course have to watch out for the...

Boy, it's been a long time since I've posted....anyway. My question is has anyone out there ever used Natural Progesterone Cream (NPC)? I had been using it for about 8 months, at the advice of a great Hollistic Healer in my area, and was feeling terrific, but my periods were so screwed up....7...

I am hypoglycemic. I have been for 25 years. I am not a severe case. My dad also has it. Now he is really bad with it. His is actually turning into diabeties, which can sometimes happen in very severe cases, such as his. I just have to make sure I don't skip any meals and watch my sugar...

I bought mine a K-Mart. I can't remember the brand, but it is silver in color. I am very happy with it. It is only $14.99, but I got mine when it was on special for $8.88. Kim

Hi Melanie. I started running after the birth of my 4th, but I know a girl who ran all through her pregnancies...4 of them also. She has run alot of marathons...none pregnant, so she is used to running long distances. She started gainning alot of weight in her first pregnancy..about 7# a...

My crib mattress was middle of the road as far as price goes. It does have coils in it. It held up beautifully through 4 kids and is still like new. Kim

Hi Lisa. I only lost weight in my last months of pregnancy. I know a woman who is so sick during pregnancies that she weighs less after she delivers that before she got pregnant. The baby will get what it needs, you will suffer if you are not eating right...but it sounds like you are doing...

I am not a migraine sufferer, but I have alot of friends who are and I really, really feel for you. This may have nothing to do with it, but I know my mom has problems when she has a pinched nerve in her neck. She has to go the chiropractor and get an adjustment and then she is better. She...

Hi Robin. I have also heard of a new way to "tan". Apparently a salon or the like will apply self tanning stuff to give the illusion of an appearance. Like they can make a woman look like she has clevage in a plunging neckline dress. They can make a woman look like she has great toned arms...

RE: To Pfive and naughtoj about running....very long Hi Angie...love the name by the way. I named my baby Angela....anyhoo, I forgot to mention in an earlier post that I have tried to train for a 15K race and got totally worn out when I hit the 7 1/2 mile long run mark. I wanted to sleep all...

Hi kathy. I too have that same body type, but am 5/6. I am almost certain that my girls are going to have it also. I wouldn't consider myself to be an apple shape, but I am definatly not a pear shape either. More of a boyish figure. I always say that I have a boy butt, my husband says no...
