Hi Kel, Leslie, Robin, Christine and everyone else! I went alcohol-free yesterday evening and feel like a million bucks this morning! So alert (could be the coffee:7 ). And I took a break from the traditional working out and worked on clearing and burning a piece of property I just bought...

Hi ladies: There is a fresh article on Fox News' website about super skinny models and the industry's efforts(not)to do something about it. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,247162,00.html Personally, I applaud the Madrid Fashion Show organizers for requiring at least an 18 BMI for...

Robin: That chianti didn't cure you?? Leslie - I am dying to go to Charleston, only I can't come up with an excuse. Ever since The Firm workouts (1986) I have wanted to go there and see it. Wow - what a hedonistic evening to report: Boot Camp at 100%, then I made a fire in my outside...

Happy birthday Debra! You must have done alot of that alternate exercising }( to lose a pound while chowing down on shecrab soup!! Ladies - try this: put a bag of frozen cranberries and a bag of frozen blueberries in a bowl, mix in about 1/2 cup flour, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 3 Tablespoons OJ...

LauraMax: I have heard of Seasonale, but the one I take is Seasonique. I have no idea what the difference is???

Hi Ladies: I've been on Seasonique BC pills for a couple of months with no side effects at all. These are the ones where you take them back to back and only have a period every three months. Before I got on them, I was taking my other pills back to back so I didn't have a period. But, for...

Hey Kel and everyone: I was focusing so hard on being squeaky that I didn't have anything interesting to report!! By the way - there is no question that, once a bottle is opened, we drink it all. Sometimes I'll cork a white and suck on it for a few days, but REDS HAVE TO GO IMMEDIATELY...

Relieved that you have a sense of humor!!

I know - sorry! But I needed to throw a zinger out there to see if anyone was awake!

Remarks like those of your co-worker are part of the liberal conspiracy to bring everyone down to their lower level. If you think I'm kidding, believe me: I'm not. Listen to what two very intelligent people said: "Keep away from people who belittle your ambitions. Small people always do...

Good morning all! I feel a lean, clean week coming on... My body is just cycling over there on its own after several weeks (or more) of a little too much booze! It's lost its appeal for awhile. This happens with me. And I'm tweaking my workouts to eight day cycles of: 1) heavy weights...

Cathy: You might go see a certified neuromuscular massage therapist while you are waiting to get in to see the sports orthopedist. It sounds like a hip flexor injury (CAVEAT - I'm not a doctor!!) and a really good neuromuscular masseuse can find the problem. I have had excellent results on...

Robin - damn, we were waiting to vicariously enjoy your New York wine weekend!! I hope your husband feels ok... Christine - I did BM2 today, also. Fun! It's cold and rainy here, so husband and I sat in front of the outdoor fireplace (on the porch of my little gym!) and split a bottle of...

Hello to everyone! Darn, Christine, I would be doubled over after a dinner like that, but VERY HAPPY!!! If this cool group ever manages to get together, let's just be happy with the champagne, pinot and salad! I made the red bean cakes with creamy coconut sauce and the spinach and pear...

Kel and Christine: On what is hedonistic to each of us, I clearly like discipline and order in my life and find it very satisfying and enjoyable when I fit it in the right way. It truly is one of my hedonistic pleasures. So, while I crave delicious pinots, I must have the physical exercise...

Kel: Excellent post. Just confirms for me that we are a group of like-minded women because the definition of hedonism is where I was going: sort of an ideal day or a model for the perfect day, if you will. I was going to try to live it today so I could report on it, but it hasn't happened...

Hi ladies! My gosh everyone is having a clean week! Way to go. Christine - you go, girl - drink that Pinot while lounging on the porch! Then you will feel all revved up to do Boot Camp tomorrow! I find that I drink alot more when husband and I are home together... last night I had two...

Hey gang: You may recall that I gave my friends all a copy of Eat to Live and a Tae Bo tape for Christmas this year. The gifts were met with very low enthusiasm and even a bit of outrage at the possible suggestion that it meant I thought they were FAT. (They are...) Well, it turns out that...

Good morning! I had such a lovely, clean and Hedonistic day yesterday. Lunch was a can of beans (I eat the whole can - I LOVE beans) and a 1 lb bag of frozen peas with a little flax oil on it. Workout was Cathe's Muscle Endurance - felt so good... Then a hot bubble bath with a martini -...

Thanks, Kel! Well, I ate the entire sweet potato dip recipe myself and an entire stock pot of popcorn on Saturday night! That was dinner. And a few cape codders. And a red bell pepper for the dip. As ETL goes, it wasn't too bad except for the drinks. And I did IMAX in the afternoon, so I...
