Marion, I see from your profile that you are from Australia. Just to let you know, profanity is not protected speech in the United States. There is no "freedom of speech" when it comes to profanity. Guess what happens when you swear at a cop? You will get arrested for disorderly conduct...

I don't know what to believe, I found this on aspartame and it says it is safe. Moderation is the key, as with everything: http://www.fitnessandfreebies.com/fitness/aspartame.html

If it doesn't firm up, just tell yourself you earned that little bit of extra skin. Think of it in a positive way instead of negative. The third child definitely changed my body in a permanent way (unless I starved myself which I refuse to do.)

RE: Amynicole! I thought I was done but when my girls were 4 and 6, I REALLY wanted a third. Problem was my husband had a vasectomy when my youngest turned 1. He had no qualms about a reversal which was done within months of the discussion. I was 36 when he had the reversal and got pregnant...

The only exercise Cathe "beats" me on is triceps, so I guess I would have to say that because I can't keep up with her...waaaaa...!

I am glad to hear you stay home. I don't know how women can "do it all." I am thankful, like you, I am able to stay home to raise my children. Just because you are home doesn't mean you have lots of free time. Enjoy your children, sounds like you are doing just that! Like others, I clean...

This is Angie again-I just remembered the mats did feel sort of slippery to the "socked" foot when I bought them and it took a few weeks to get that slippery feeling away but they warn you about that when you get them.

I bought the "exercise" mats from this company and I absolutely love them! I think they are a few years old and have held up perfectly. I really have no complaints whatsoever. I don't know how they compare to the playmats people usually are talking about, I think these are a bit more durable...

Sorry "fitstick" but I couldn't resist asking how lean you are with name like that. No offense, it was just funny when I read your post and then saw your name.

I always work out when I have a chest cold, I draw the line at fever, aches, chills etc. However, don't expect the same energy level and if you can't breathe, probably should rest as well.

Dr. Laura would say an emphatic "NO" and I agree.

It even drives me crazier when celebrities spout their political viewpoints at concerts you pay top dollar for. I just want to hear Madonna sing "Material Girl" and not see humongous signs of a President Bush look-a-like hugging a Saddam look-a-like.

Can't help you with your question but can tell you that my husband had a vasectomy reversal too and it took 10 months for me to get pregnant (he was 38 and I was 36.) Just keep trying, I know it is frustrating but it will happen. Good luck.

The Brian Kest series is great, "Tone, Sweat and Energize." I have used them for a few years and wish he would make more videos. If you are an exerciser, they will be fine for you. Just don't expect to be able to do the poses the same way as his students. But keep working on it and you will...

One word, YOGA. I used to always have lower back pain but not since I started doing yoga just a few times a week. I would agree, not exercising is probably why you have the back pain.

Suzanne- I am thinking about a tempur-pedic too because my bed is so uncomfortable. Did you like the bed immediately or did you have to get used to it? My DH has a pillow and I love it but I don't know if I would like that for my entire body. Thank you- Angie

I had a sneakin' suspicion that it had something to do with alopecia. You are way too funny, by the way!! Angie

OK, Aquajock, you probably have answered this a million times but I can't do a search because I would never find it. What in the heck does "legally bald" mean anyway? Is there such a thing as "illegally bald?" Just curious. FYI: I am a lawyer by training so that is where the illegal...

I'm just glad we're basically the same age (Cathe a "newbie 40" and I am 41) so we can exercise into our advanced years together!!

I am SUCH a Cathe snob that I cannot even go the the local YMCA and take a class, way too easy.
