I have lost inches and pounds (about 8 pounds and an inch or two: chest, hips, iliac, waist). The main thing that I have noticed is the increase in my overall fitness level. I am faster and stronger. My endurance is greatly improved, too. I have been doing a lot of things for a long...

My house is ultimately acceptable and pretty clean (by my standards), but I feel like there are piles of "stuff" everywhere! I understand about feeling like your home is not clean enough for guests. I have finally come to terms with my family's messiness and tendency to collect (2 pack rats...

I agree! I agree that you might just be at your "happy weight". I am dealing with the same thing now. I am 5'4" and about 135, too. I can pretty much eat what I want at this weight (and activity level, which is pretty high). I work out pretty intensely for an hour per day about 5-6 days...

Scrapbooking, going to see movies at the theater, reading, taking jacuzzis while reading. Some of these I do daily, others I only do when I can fit them into my life! I also love to bake...cookies, brownies, cakes, etc. (hence my love of fitness!!!) But... fitness is my true passion! I...

I was actually lucky enough to find an instructor as hard as Cathe, but more motivating, since she is in person. If I could have Cathe in person, I would workout every chance I could get!! I am doing this now with the instructor that I found. I am in the best shape of my life and about to...

I know! A 13 year old? Just sad... I saw a picture posted of the octomom getting a manicure this week. Seriously? Babies at home and babies in the hospital and you are getting a manicure? It's just sad to me :( Jenn

I have read about 25 of them. Most of them I enjoyed. I just bought Gone With the Wind. I am still on about chapter 3 or 4. I absolutely love a good book! I get so excited when we have a new thread about books. Amazon loves me when I get new recommendations here!!! Jenn

I totally understand about SpongeBob and Wubzy...usually it is one of those for me, too!! But today it is So What by Pink. Not sure why, but it has been there all day! Hmmmmm. Now that I think about it, I called someone a rock star earlier. Maybe it is because of that? "so, so...

Yay for you!!!!! Isn't that the best feeling??? Congratulations!!!!!! Enjoy the feeling and be proud of yourself!!!!! Jenn

Clare~ I am doing a CLX on Sunday, cardio on Monday (a live TurboKick class), CLX on Wednesday, rest on Thursday, CLX on Friday and one hour of some fun cardio on Saturday (play with kids, Cathe cardio, live cardio class). The CLX days are just resistance training, no cardio. THe CLX days...

I am almost done with the push phase (I am with a group of women doing the program and we started with push about a month ago). I love it too! I am stronger than I have EVER been! My body is still leaning out (losing inches, not pounds). I can't wait to see what the next phases bring...

My friend and personal trainer. I am in the best shape of my life due to her inspiration, motivation and awesome workouts! My life has changed in so many ways since we met and I am so thankful that she is in my life!! My DH, who also inspires me every day for lots of reasons!! My students...

I am in week 3 of ChaLean Extreme and I am already stronget. I can lift a LT more than I have ever in the past. The scale is the same so far, but I am leaner and as I said...stronger! It is a very fun, very different way to train and I am loving it so far! Jenn

I am not an expert, especially since my house is almost completely carpet-free (wood and tile everywhere except 2 bedrooms). However, when we did have carpet everywhere, I would steam clean once a month or so, or even just the traffic areas. I never used any solutions in my steam cleaner...

The whole broken "thing" with McSteamy and Little Grey was hilarious! The death row storyline was amazing and I understood how Meredith could have sympathy for him and just want to show him compassion. I also understand about arguing with a friend and then trying to find a common ground again...

KPC was on FitTV today and at the last second, I decided to join Cathe in the workout (even though I own this on DVD). I really enjoyed this workout. I haven't done it in a very long time! I forgot how much fun it is! I am doing a ChaLEAN program with my trainer, and today called for a...

I have seen this one before and tried to look for it (with no luck)...Thanks for sharing! We have more snow predicted for tomorrow. My thought is that as long as it's cold, we might as well have snow, right? And it is COLD!!! I love the snow, but it does get pretty old after a few months...

I have done a few 2 day "cleanses". I only eat raw veggies and fruit for 2 days (no juice, coffee). I only drink water and some decaf tea. I do this when I am out of control with my eating. I do it for a cleanse of sorts, but more to show myself that I have control over my eating. I feel...

Oh yeah!!! Gnip Gnop!! I just love saying that!!! It has such a great ring to it!!! Gnip! Gnop!!!:D:D:D

Mine was the year that my Dad brought home a huge box and we all had to guess what was inside. We had to actually write our guesses on the box. I guessed that it was a lot of presents in one box and it was! It was actually a huge stocking full of presents for all of us. I got to pick my...
