What a great check-in! I would like to join the ranks of the illustrious Peeps, too! Prayers for Stephanie and her baby, and to Catherine's BIL. I have a silly question to ask- what does the designation under people's names "Catheite, Cathlete, etc" mean? I am going to do Cathe's October...

Cathe (If I may be so bold!) I just started using your workout DVDs and love them! Will you continue to post monthly rotations when STS comes out? Thanks, Lisa

Hi Nyx, Shake it off, shake it off, we are going to have a flabuless week. I am ending a stretch of badness myself. I cooked chicken for the week to eat in spinach salad/low carb tortilla with salsa and light sour cream, with sweet potatos and with brown rice. We got this :D. I gave a talk...

Hello Everyone, Hope all is well. I'm going on a long walk today because I got off of work early. My husband gave me a picture of a sunset with pink clouds, and wrote this on it: The clouds above us join and separate. The breeze in the courtyard leaves and returns. Life is like that so...

Hello All, Trying to fixate appropriately on a work thing I have to do, and it's stressing me out completely unnecessarily. I just bought Cathe DVDs on ebay (which I probably shouldn't have), because I am fixated on acquiring all the DVDs to complete a whole rotation. It's not good enough in...

Hello, workoutaholic, in the pyramid section where Cathe adds 5 pounds (ie 30 to 35 to 40 etc), how do you portion out the weight? With a 5 lb bar, it would be a ten and a 2 1/2 on each side and then add a 2 1/2 to each side? Good luck with the bunionectomy- you could probably swim or do a...

Thanks guys, I'm off to research!

Hello, this is probably a silly question, but which bar do you get? Which weight bar do you pick, I know it must vary based on your ability, but what is a standard for Cathe workouts? Thanks, Lisa

Hi Murph, Glad to hear from you! I'm with you about the morning distractions. I'm finding that if I don't get up before them, workouts are not happening. That being said, workouts have only twice this week so far for me, too. good job on cutting out the snacks. How old are you kids? Hope...

Nyx, I, too, have vanilla designer whey protein, which I put in my oats and yogurt. Your smoothie sounds good, but peanut butter might be a trigger-to-pork food for me. Where did you get your troy barbell? It seems like shipping would be a lot. I saw one at walmart that was golds gym brand...

Hello Ladies! Hope all is well with everyone. I just did PLB and am in pain. I iced down my knees, time for something lunge free and low impact tomorrow. For my breakfasts, I have an eggbeater omelette with spinach, for the second one around 10:30, flaxseed oatmeal with a scoop of protein...

Nyx, Thanks for the encouraging words. They really mean a lot. good night, Lisa

OK that didn't work, here goes another try: http://mysmileyz.com/s/thighmaster.gif

Hello everyone, I'm glad to see someone resurrected the cathletic supporters. I have been busy busy as I'm sure you all have been, and have slowly been returning to my old laissez-faire eating habits. My in-laws came to visit, and I was too embarassed to do step workouts in front of them/or...

Jennifer, I apologize for typing "Michele" when I actually meant congratulations to you- I got confused with the "Michigan" part. I'm sorry if I offended you, I meant only happy thoughts :). I feel like I am interrupting someone else's conversations, so I will gracefully exit, Good...

Hello Smileyville, Just wanted to bump you up! Hope you all are having a fantastic day, and Michele, congratulations on going back to school :D Take care, Lisa

Happy Saturday! Hope everyone is well. The hurricane did not reach us, but I am thinking of those that it did, and hoping for their safety. I had a "zag" day today, and ate wheat protein pancakes with lots of butter and sugar free syrup for breakfast today. Calipers haven't come yet...

Very nice clean eating today! Impressive! I have to force the vegetables in, I am not a fan. I eat spinach in my eggbeater omelette, and that doesn't make me barf, I like cucumbers, avocado. Summer squash (is that the yellow kind?) I like only with butter. sigh. I did my share of clean...

Hello Everyone! How was everyone's day? Still seeing butterflies, literally. I woke up and tried to do a new step video, Kari Anderson, and it was godawful. The moves were simple basic step oriented and then she would randomly put in a double spin across the step, which did not add...

Hello Everyone, Hope all is well. I thought there was something very eerie going on today because I saw masses of butterflies, I mean thousands, flying all over, and it turns out that the monarch butterflies are going south to Mexico. It was like something out of Dr. Seuss's "The Lorax"...
