    Speaking of Kickboxing-DVD Advice

    Thanks, ladies, for your replies. :) Are there any other KBing workouts that you would suggest that aren't on my list? Should I consider Amy Bento's Rumble, even though KBX and In the Ring didn't click w/me? I might try those two again this summer when I have more time to learn a...

    Speaking of Kickboxing-DVD Advice

    Since kickboxing seems to be the only cardio that my knee likes, I need more. I have all of Cathe's kickboxing, Amy Bento's In the Ring and Kickbox Xtreme- both of these I really hate. It would take me months to learn them. I have Tracey Staehle's Strike Zone, which is too slow and easy...

    Protein powder recommendations

    Guess I never thought to put it in the blender. Duh! I am going to try the vanilla one (dessert tea) next. I bet it will be super yummy with the protein powder. Maybe I'll try adding chocolate protein powder to that flavor. You are are a wealthy of knowledge, Kathryn. I always look...

    Protein powder recommendations

    Thanks, Kathryn I just had to revisit this thread to send out a thank you to Kathryn for recommending adding protein powder to tea. Gosh... I tried some of the Celestial Seasonings Almond Sunset Dessert Tea and added vanilla protein powder. It was so very good. Has a creamy-taste like chai tea...

    What Happened to.....?

    Oh, it's (rating LauraMax's threads with one star) not a super recent thing. It's been going on for a couple of months now. I find it very high school, but regardless, I really wonder about, and as strange as it sounds, miss people who posted a lot and now aren't even on the forum. It would be...

    Jessica Simpson's Body

    Speaking of body image... I teach at a high school where appearances are VERY important. Well, the dance team just got new sequin booty shorts (uh, yeah....) anyway, the instructor passed out coupons to a tanning salon and to a gym. Can you believe that?!?! WTH?!?! No wonder girls have body...

    What Happened to.....?

    Yeah, those are the two gals. They were just too cool, and I always loved to read their posts. Now I guess I'll just have to keep myself entertained by seeing how many of your (LauraMax) threads get one star. We ALL know who is doing it. It's like a soap opera around here. But I must say...

    What Happened to.....?

    During a search for random info. the other day, I came across a couple of posts from former forum members- hippa hip (hips?) and bobbie. I always enjoyed their posts. That got me thinking. I wonder what happened to them, and to others who have posted for awhile and then just disappear. Do...

    I just don't get why those girls go on the show and get so drunk. Gosh... I would be afraid that my mom would see!

    Chalean Extreme Initial Impressions

    Yes, I meant moves which aren't knee friendly. I am finally getting to where I can actually do some cardio. I'm known for overdoing things, so I'm being very cautious. Thanks for the answer. Once I'm done with a Jari Love 3 month rotation, which seems to be working for me, I am going to...

    Onto a more serious note - alcoholics

    My father who died when I was in my 20's was an alcoholic for most of my life (and his!). I just want to agree with the many posters who have said that you can't make an alcoholic quit. It's a disease, thus they aren't really deciding to drink over someone or something else. That's a tough thing...

    Chalean Extreme Initial Impressions

    Would you consider the cardio in this program high impact? (plyo-type moves, twisting, etc...)

    Cooking Question

    Thanks so much, Chris, for answering my question AND including a very delicious recipe. I think I'm going to make my life easier and try yours! Again, thanks. My husband is starting P90X again and I remember all the prep work for the recipes. This will be a lot easier and will be pretty close...

    What New Years Day Workout Are You Doing?

    Today was Jari Love's Ripped 1000. I've been using her Ripped workouts for a month now and am already having great results. I think I've finally realized that my body does not like heavy weights. Even with the high reps, my knee hasn't bothered me once. High reps and low weight have given me the...

    Cooking Question

    Please help a novice cook! I am trying to find a recipe for breakfast that I can make ahead of time that would be similar to the omeletes in the P90X recipe section. Can I make the below recipe with all egg whites instead of some egg whites and some whole eggs? If I also wanted to add some...

    relationship/love ?

    I thought I couldn't live without my high school sweetheart (we were engaged when I was in college and he broke my heart- some Jerry Springer type stuff!). That feeling of love was so deep that I never thought that I could feel that way again. I realized when I met my husband that we BOTH felt...

    Anyone else keep survival supplies?

    Gosh, Ellie, I'm impressed! I thought I was being prepared by having a couple of flares and an emergency kit in the trunk of my car and I have a flashlight with working batteries in my night stand. You've given me something to think about.
