Hello, I just found out last Monday that I'm pregnant, DH and I are thrilled though completely shocked! I'm approx. 5-6 weeks, due in early Feb (seems so far away! I'm sure it will fly by though). I've had to have some hcg/prog. testing due to some bleeding (probably implantation) and...

I know strenuous exercise is to be avoided after donating blood but what about before donating? I was hoping to do Butts & Guts today but wonder if I'd be better off doing a something lighter, maybe a cardio w/o? Anyone have experience w/ this? I know about drinking extra fluids and eating...

Hi, I was hoping some of you could help me. For one of my classes, a classmate and I have to do community service which involves teaching 16 6th graders some kind of exercise. We decided to teach a core class with a 10 min warm-up of basic exercises, jacks, speed skaters, etc. The main part...

I'm hoping some of you will be able to back me up in a disagreement I'm having w/ my dh (the d is not for dear in this case):) We've found a piece of property that we want to put an offer on. This is our first time buying real estate (or attempting to). DH thinks that a RE agent or attny...

...that you love? We currently have a cuisinart b&g but it's never worked right (I should've returned it but threw the box away), it drips sticky coffee down onto the burner from the grinder - it's such a pain to clean. I ordered a "kitchen essentials" g&b from Overstock but that was defective...

I went to see this movie a few days ago and it was so cute! I keep thinking about it. It's truly amazing what Emperor penguins go through for their babies and the bond they share with their mate. I highly recommend seeing it but would warn against bringing young kids, its very much a...

Well, she's always been lean but she seems more so since the last series. Did any of you notice this or am I just imagining it? I know video cameras can alter one's size but the rest of the crew seem the same size in your pictures as they do in the videos. Great pictures everyone...

I'll give some background first. I have just finished my spring semester at school and need to get a summer job (possibly going into the fall/winter). I have one year left at school and will have an associates degree in exercise science. During next spring semester I need to do an internship...

It's the diet where you eat low calories one day, high the next... Does anyone know what it's called? I'm thinking it would be a good topic for a research paper/presentation that I have to do but I need to buy the book for it. Is there a website? Thanks in advance :)

It's not that big a deal but I can't do the leg press with shoulder press in HSC because my hands hit the ceiling. It's a normal ceiling height and I'm not that tall (5'4"). Anyone else with this problem?

Hi Cathe, I did GS Legs Monday and wow, what a great workout! My calves and glutes are still screaming for mercy :) My question is what is the best way to improve my hamstring flexibility? I'm hoping to be able to do those SL Dead Lifts one day. I can touch my toes but not without a little...

Has anyone else had problems with the sound on High Step Challenge? I think it may be just my DVD since I haven't seen any posts about it but I just wanted to check here first before contacting SNM. Basically the sound is normal and then suddenly it's very low and muffled sounding (both music...

Please help me decide, I keep going back and forth :)

Or even previewed it? I'm dying to know how it is (awesome, I'm sure). Does it compare to ME or PH?

I have a sneaking suspicion that I have a sinus infection. I've been sick since Jan. 14 but was feeling great from Sunday until yesterday. Then, This a.m. I woke up with a bad headache (temples, face), sore throat, plugged ears, and glands so swollen I can hardly turn my head. So I can't tell...

Can anyone give me some recommendations for acne treatments? I can't use Proactiv or anything with benzoile (sp?) peroxide in it as I'm allergic to it. I was looking at Murad products, which I've heard good things about but I'm skeptical to fork over more money for something that may not work...
