Hi Lisa, I have a great deal of advice, but the first thing you must do is not blame yourself. Yes, it's true that we teach people how to treat us, but you started doing all those things because you're a good person. If he's taking advantage of you, and it sounds like he is, he's the one...

I agree with everyone reminding us that the book is FICTION. I also understand why a Christian might be offended. Kudos to any Christian who is well-read enough to effectively shoot down the story. However, I strongly feel that the Catholic church has brought this on itself. The...

I agree that the plot lines this season were too weird. Seems like Betty Applewhite is gone - good riddance. Her story was just plain creepy. (I do like the actress playing her - what's her name again? I hope she gets a job on another top-rated series.) Mike can't be dead, or they'd have...

RE: To those who have lost a loved one to illness/cance... Janis, I know how you must be feeling. I lost my own mother to cancer three years ago. She didn't want to die, and she fought it all along. But finally, the end came, and my sisters and I felt better when she passed. Mom came to a...

Hi Cathe, I've added Cardio & Weights to my rotation, and I love it! Were you all having fun that day, or what? I love how Rhonda and Cedie smile right at me (so it seems), and you are giving me perfect instruction while even laughing! The step choreography is great--a perfect mix of...

Cathe is one of the few to put out a good, advanced kickboxing w/o on DVD in a while. I would love something along the lines of KPC. My suggestion is to include more simple kickbox drills that keep the heart rate up and combine punches and kicks well. Add to that some great music and this...

RE: Update on eBay Hi Chris & Cathe, Thank you for taking action against this seller. Consumers can complain, but only you can protect your copyrights. There are many legitimate sellers on eBay, but these blatent offenders make everyone look bad. It's easy for consumers (myself...

>Another great piece of advice I got when first stepping with >Cathe was to use a combo at a time as a warm-up to something >else. Then you are learning the steps and aren't too worried >about not getting a hard workout, you know? > >This is how I learned Low Max! The Classics are...

RE: Favorite Kick, Punch, Crunch should be at the top of your list. Also, I like High Step Circuit for a change of pace. I haven't attempted the other 2 High Step w/o's yet. You may want to tack on one Low Max combo at the end of your workout. It took me a little while, but now I love it...

Major congrats to you! This is both for getting the weight off and for your new one on the way. Your post will keep us motivated. Keep us informed with updates!

Don't worry Carolyn! Soem people are rude, rude, rude! You did everything you could to give a safe, effective workout, but it sounds like nothing would have made them happy. They should thank you for taking the time and trouble to be there. You're the one who showed class and...

I think TJ is much easier than Cathe or Janis. I like that they're dancier, but not everyone will agree. If you want something tougher, I read at VF that there's new one due out in February, maybe later this month. It's called Kick, Punch, & Jam and it's supposed to be more intense than...

Let your sister know that she has her family. Too often, the victim becomes isolated, and this limits her options if things escalate. If your sister comes to you after any violence, don't attempt to protect her alone. Call the police and a local domestic violence agency. (Here in St. Louis...

I love that you posted her picture! If more nasty MIL's knew their DIL might post their picture, they might think twice. Confronting her is an option, but IMO it seldom works. Most evil MIL's have been that way for years and will never change. I agree that she's jealous. You look...

The woman is evil, nasty, and self-centered. In many cases of evil MIL's, the DIL is told she's overreacting. In case anyone has said this, you're NOT. I'm sorry this is ruining your holiday. Take care of yourself. E-mail me any time if you want to vent. Trust me, I've been there!

I'm wondering if anyone who's had Botox gets migraines. I've been told Botox may prevent them in some people. I just turned 40. People say I don't look it, but I have crows feets/forehead wrinkles/frownie lines. Yeccch! I'm considered Botox, and I wonder if I'll see a reduction in...

No, you are not a horrible person. But overweight people are not horrible, either. I understand not having sympathy for lazy people. Too many of my friends don't exercise. My concern is not for their looks, but their health. Unfortunately, being overweight, even a little, equals health...

I'm so proud of you! You've worked hard on your body, why not improve everything else? Some people say they would never have surgery. (don't believe them) I say go for it; my nose job and veneers were the best things I've bought for myself, unless you count Cathe! I know what you...

Basic Step (no BF) came with the Wal-Mart small step. The first time I tried it, I was ready to drop it from a high-rise. Later I got into VF and with everyone raving about her I decided to try again. I just did a little each afternoon until I got it. Before long I pre-ordered LIS and bought...

Happy Birthday Julie! I'm so sorry about your mother. The first year is so hard, but it does get easier. Just think how proud she is that you did Thanksgiving so well. Go ahead and cry, it's good for you. 42 is a wonderful age to be healthy and happy. All ages are, but there's...
