I have read soooo much here about the S & H tapes. It is one series of Cathe's tapes I dont own and am tempted to purchase. I've looked at the vid clips online, so I know the process is moving heavy weight very slowly. What I want to know is, how MUCH of a difference did doing a rotation of...

RE: the top of the hips and across the belly ROFLMAO....I can just see this. Very funny, Amy. Thanks for a good laugh on a Friday morning (with BIG BIG snow in the forecast for the Chicago area....hmmmm, makes for quite a weekend, eh? Good excuse to do a Cathe video instead of schlepping to the...

RE: Decrease in Metabolism Hear Hear Bobbi!!! Great article and reference! Thanks for the info. I agree whole-heartedly with you re: exercise, bones, estrogen et al....one of the main reasons I exercise and weight train is for bone strength and collateral(ligaments and tendons) strength and...

Nicole... Below, find a copy of an article on CLA and what it is/does. As far as getting enough protein, you might want to consider protein supplementation using protein drinks. MetRx, EAS, AST...there are several great companies out there making protein powders that can be mixed with water or...

Deb... I have always sworn by either Reebok DMX walkers or Nike Air walkers. They are light-weight, yet have super cushioning capabilities. The Reebok DMX's actually have an air channel running through the sole of the shoe, and the air moves back and forth as you step, cushioning each foot...

RE: abdominal fat and menopause Amy... Just out of curiousity, are you getting that "particular" age? meaning menopausal? I just turned 46 in January, and for the last few years, have noticed that my fat likes to deposit itself more in my mid-section than ever before in my life. I am built like...

RE: Oops How kewl...I'm envious, Cathe! You look better PG than I ever did...pregnant or not! LOL Hope you can post a couple of pics from this pregnancy for us to see. You have not only motivated this old fart from Chicago (me!<G>) but my middle daughter as well, who lives in Oklahoma and does...

RE: Finding Cathe Now this is going to sound really weird, but I found Cathe in...of all places...a viseo store! This was back in 94 or 95...forget which....but I think someone "returned" a Cathe video to a Suncoast (I remember exactly which Suncoast, btw<G>) Video store and got money back for...

Hi Marnie and everyone! Just your friendly neighborhood nurse here, putting in her two-cents worth! All the replies to Marcia's post are good and true...to some extent. I subscribe to Muscle Media, which, IMHO, is one of the most reputable sources for the lay person (non-medical professional)to...

Hi Bobbi! This is soooooooo off-topic, but I HAD to ask you.... how the heck do you insert those cute smiley icons into your notes? Can you use them in other places, like personal emails and Instant messages? I read in one of your previous posts about the copy/paste, but Im not sure what to do...

I have an interesting question that is just due to sheer nosiness and curiosity.... Posted on another forum here on the Cathe pages, someone asked if any of the ladies in Cathe's videos regularly participate in the forums. There was also talk about some of the physical transformations we've all...

Dear Likes 2 Be Fit.... Cute call sign! Below is a copy/paste of an article I found on the web re: body types and exercise. There are books available (check out Amazon.com) on this topic. Good Luck! Lynn Finn ******** <<Foot.com News and Info Choose an Exercise That Suits Your Body Type...

Maureen... Tough luck, friend. Sounds like a nasty diagnosis. You might want to check out a recent thread on the "Ask Cathe" section called "Knees and Workouts". Theres a lot of discussion of knee pain, various exercises, knee braces, etc. There are a number of us out here in Cathe-land who...

Nicole... Believe it or not, I get a HUGE bottle of chewables at Costco; I think they're pretty much nation-wide, though not in all states, yet. They are a warehouse wholesaler, much like Sams clubs, but I like them a lot better. I got 600 chewables for $15.00, and the label lists both the RDA...

Hey Jen...KEWL! The Chgo marathon, eh? Granted, it isn't Boston, but it's just as exciting. I've lived outside of Chgo and work in Chgo (at the U of Chgo hospitals) all my life (it seems...LOL). Isn't it the best city in the world? Or am I just prejudiced? Hugs Lynn...who needs to get shin...

JWM, I don't know a whole lot about synephrine, except that it is contained as neo-synephrine in many OTC quick-acting nasal sprays to prevent stuffiness during colds, flu and allergy season. Based on its name, it looks like it might be a synthetic form of epinephrine, which causes cardiac...

RE: Wow, Thanks so much, Lynn! Laura; I'm still waiting to hear from my daughter. She called me Friday night, but they were so bogged down at Walgreens (she works at the busiest Walgreens in Oklahoma<VBG>) that she completely forgot to ask about calcium and iron consumption. She works all...

Kathryn Yep...went the PT route three times, (no less...arghhhh). Also learned how to do the patellar taping you describe, so the kneecap tracks better. The taping works for a while, but winds up going with the path of least resistence after a couple hours and becomes ineffective. These last...

Tammy... Hear HEAR! for Shaklee! Personally, I was an Amway distributor for many years in my more youthful times, and their vitamin line was comparable to Shaklee in purity and safety. I used them for many years with confidence. I didn't know about the GNC lawsuit. What a crock! I rarely buy...

RE: Supplement questions--Thanks, Lynn! Laura... For some reason, that sounds familiar to me. I don't have anything at hand to confirm it, so I'm going to turn to my daughter, who is a pharmacy tech in Oklahoma. She works at Walgreens, and they have a wonderful cross-matching computer system...
