    Me :-)

    Thank you all for your kindness -- I feel good about what I've done so far, but I am still a work in progress!! :-) It makes my heart happy to imagine that I can motivate people -- thanks! Oh and thanks for the compliment on my kiddo -- that's my youngest son in the top picture who loves...

    High Step Training Advanced

    Hi Ladies, I was looking ahead to next week's workout rotation and day 2 says High Step Training Advanced (I'm doing Cathe's January 2008 rotation) what is that? I can't find a DVD that is called High Step Training Advanced.

    Firewalkers?

    I'm going to have to do that workout so I can try it. :-) Everytime I use that band it burns . . . in a good way! Thanks!

    Firewalkers?

    I saw this referenced in another thread and clearly I have not done a Cathe workout with a firewalker yet. Can someone explain to me what they are? Thanks! Travis

    Help! I'm so hungry!

    Truthfully I think you have to be beyond hardcore to NOT give in. I am not that person. I give in sometimes and feel like crap afterwards too, sometimes giving in turns into a binge day which turns into a binge weekend -- it sucks. But I am human. I try and find clean sweet substitutes...

    Me :-)

    I've been spending a lot of time on this site recently. I like the friendliness of you all and I truly appreciate how many of you respond to questions and discuss things in a civil way (I've been on other sites that are not so nice :o) Anyway I thought I would share my "success story" so to...

    Help! I'm so hungry!

    true, no one did mention that. and it is ultra important. I drink at a minimum a gallon of water a day. Closer to 1.5.

    Help! I'm so hungry!

    I agree 100% that calorie counting is superfluous to weight loss. You have to be conscious of what you eat and eat the right things to lose any weight, feel satisfied and build lean muscle mass (as well as lifting heavy of course). It burns me when I hear people say “well its only X amount...

    What the heck's wrong with me?!

    I’m sorry to hear you’re feeling so unhappy. Do you live in a place where the weather is kind of dreary? That could affect your mood as well – I live in Oregon – it rains here it seems most of the year and I can find myself in a pretty depressive state for long periods due to the weather...

    Muscle Endurance!

    Hi ladies, I did Muscle Endurance yesterday for the very first time and really enjoyed it. It seemed to go by really quickly! There were a couple of exercises that I had never done before; the one where you sit on the mini step and squeeze the medicine ball and then move it back and...

    Help! I'm so hungry!

    what else are you eating besides the two fruits and veggies throughout the day? Are you eating any starchy carbs like brown rice, sweet potatos, ezekeal bread? Are you getting enough protein? enough good fat? What does a normal day of food look like for you?

    No more "white stuff" !! (breads/carbs)

    RE: No more I don't eat the white stuff either for the same reasons. Have you tried Ezekeal bread? Of course you can't get it at Subway but if you like bread (like I do) and don't want to cut it completely out of your diet you might try Ezekeal. It's filling and yummy. They even have...

    January 2008 Cathe Results!

    I loved working with Cathy Savage. Actually I loved Cathy but Jodi Jones her nutritionist who also works with you is the true gem. She taught me a great deal about eating clean and healthy. Here is the link for Cathy's site http://cathysavagefitness.com/ If you live in the Boston area...
