    MBT Sneakers - Anyone try them yet ?????

    I just purchased my MBT sneakers. I wanted the advanced pair but the sales person suggested that I start out with the beginner. I didn't think that they were as ugly as everyone was saying. They come with a dvd and there is a class on 10/7 in Central Park with a representative from the...

    MBT Sneakers - Anyone try them yet ?????

    I know there has been talk on this forum about the MBT sneakers - just wondering if anyone has tried them yet ? I find it interesting that a Pilates Studio in Brooklyn sells them along with 1 free Walkilates Class. http://www.ellie.net/store/EHSstoreMBTs.htm Also, I thought this...

    So you think you can dance....

    I have been watching it from the beginning and I think Allison and Ivan are just AWFUL!!! He's too inexperienced and her arms and head are swaying all over the place - too distracting! Their contemporary piece was boring! On the other hand, Travis is an accomplished male dancer. Martha is...

    plantar fasciitis

    Vickie: I suffered from Plantar Fasciitis as well. I tried Physical Therapy but it was so painful that I couldn't go back. The Orthopedic suggested as a last resort cortosonze shots. Then I read an article about obesity and plantar fasciitis. Well, I went on weight watchers, lost 35 lbs...

    My Bathroom Renovation is Finished - Take a Look

    Thanks, Robyn: I am very surprised that it turned out so nice because I had absolutely no lead time and I rushed to get all of my fixtures. Unfortunately, the stuff that I wanted had a 4-6 week ship time, so I had to settle. Thankfully, that is the biggest job that I had to tackle in my...

    My Bathroom Renovation is Finished - Take a Look

    Tip #1: When you remove the toilet paper holder, one would assume that you would put the NEW holder in the same place. However, I purchased a Toto "comfort height" toilet, which is around 3" higher than the normal toilet - and of course the toilet paper holder was put back in the original...

    My Bathroom Renovation is Finished - Take a Look

    Elaine: I did not do the actual work - I had a great tile person. I did not work with any designer - just went with what I liked and hoped for the best. Really wanted a sleek look and being that my bathroom is so small and old, I didn't have many options of what I could do or buy. For...

    My Bathroom Renovation is Finished - Take a Look

    What a nice compliment!!! My sister was my helper with the tile and the rest was up to me. Actually, I wanted a generic spa-like look, in the event that I sell, I wanted something that would appeal to most folks. So, I selected neutral colors. The problem was the accessories because whatever...

    Any experience with vertigo?

    Marie: I wonder if there is any correlation between the drugs and the possible vertigo? I started in February taking Lunesta for sleeping and after about 45 days, I noticed that I had a "lightheaded" sensation - couldn't figure out where this came from - then I took out the pharmacy...

    Bathroom Renovation

    Thankfully, I don't have to re-do my kitchen - just new appliances. What kind of appliances are you getting for your kitchen? I have been looking at either the 30" Viking or Wolf gas range with a Dacor Over the Range Microwave (www.dacor.com); and either a Bosch or Miele Dishwasher. That is...

    Bathroom Renovation

    Well, I am told that it will take 6-7 days. I hope that is true because I have to move into a hotel. My bathroom is also very small and I am not having any special tiling designs and I know this guy has another job in my building that starts on 6/15. So......I am keeping my fingers crossed...
