...whole wheat pasta! I eat whole wheat breads, crackers and cereal - but pasta just needs to be good old white flour... love me some beets though :p Debbie Russo

I am so excited, my new stainless steeel appliances were delivered yesterday, finally! However, the delivery personnel left tons of smudges and fingerprints all over them. I tried a stainless steel "pop-up towelette" cleaner but now the finish looks streaky. :( Any suggestions on the best...

Goody Quikstyle The bristles are wrapped in tiny microfiber towels. They make a paddle brush and a half round. The wrapped bristles absorb moisture as you are blowing drying. Using this brush has cut my drying time by at least the advertised 30%! As a personal trainer, I seem to be forever...

I am the OP and I have to tell you I am tempted to go to another local Target and try again to buy PlayDoh. I live on the west coast of Florida (Sarasota) and I am still kinda floored over this. I can't imagine what the thought process is with this policy. Isn't PlayDoh nontoxic? Even though...

...a controlled substance? Yesterday, at Target, I attempted to buy a couple of containers of Play Doh. The cashier asked me for ID. I thought she was kidding. The system was asking for my ID and would not process the order without it. The cashier was not only supposed to check my ID but...

Love - NO TRAIN NO GAIN :eek:

Wonderwoman: Disney will be everything that you expect it to be. I live really close (90 mins away) so I have lots of experience. What hotel are you staying in? All Disney hotels offer bus transportation just know that it is not a quick ride to the parks from the hotels. There will be lots...

Hi - Hoping for some advice. I will be visiting Atlanta for 3 days in the end of October. I am going with my husband and my aunt. She is 77 but very fit (teaches water aerobics 3xs a week and swims competively). Looking for suggestions for a nice hotel in the heart of it all. She wants...

This looks really interesting, but I can't seem to find out where to order, or how much it costs. Did you order from a coach? or the on-line site? Thanks, Debbie Russo

Am I the only one not riding this wave? :rolleyes: I was watching TV the other night and the actress looked like she had awnings attached to her eyes! Sigh, seems like too much work plus glue near my contact lenses scares the daylights out of me. Debbie Russo

Every morning and every evening.:p I can't trust my clothes because by the time I realize that they are a little tight I have gained 5 pounds. I am at the weight that I want to be. At 5'11" I can put on 3 or 4 pounds and not see it. The scale does not freak me out, but if I gain more than...

5'11" with 35 1/2 inch inseam. NOTHING is ever too long on me!!! Thank heavens I live in florida where I only have to wear long pants a couple of days a year :cool: Debbie Russo

Hi Jen: I live on the west coast of Florida, not too far north of Sanibel. It is a beautiful place, but as Melanie said, very quiet and low key. A really great choice just north of Sanibel is Siesta Key. Siesta Key beach was named the number one beach in the country! It is spectacular...

I agree about the separate warm-up. I don't use Insanity as a total program, but I throw in a work-out here or there for variety. I use one of Cathe's warm ups - like MMA Boxing - then do the Insanity warm-up as the first "combo". I skip his really long (like 6+ minutes) static stretch and go...

I agree that 30/30 intervals are hard, but I just don't feel like it is "enough" so I add the intervals from Drill Max as my part two of the workout. That way I get the true HIIT done first so my heart rate is up there for the Drill Max drills which are longer and more steady state cardio...

How much time do you have available each day? Debbie Russo

I am thankful that in 31 years of a wonderful marriage to the most amazing man, we have managed to be invited out every single year for Thanksgiving :eek: That's right! I have never ever prepared Thanksgiving dinner. Initially between my family and his, there was this alternating thing...

I had a complete hysterectomy 7 years ago, the day before my 46th birthday. Crashing into instant menopause was an unbelievable nightmare for me. I suffered for almost 10 months with night sweats (up to 13 soaking sweats per night), night terrors, hot flashes, stomach pains and nausea...

I am 53 and my husband is 55. We have been working out with cathe since Mega Step circa 1992? We were using Step Reebok - remember "The hardest workout on the planet?". Well, after the first go round with Mega Step we immediately renamed it Mega Death. I never thought that I would make it...

I think they did a great job on the packaging, however I wish I could have had an option to get individual cases. I store my workouts on an open bookshelf by type of workout - heavy weights, HIIT, Step, Yoga, etc. Then when I plan my weekly rotation I pull the individual workouts that I am...
