  • I'm new but I'm in
  • Hi anyone interested in forming a new group for total gym users? I have been doing the total gym DVD's with Todd Durkin but would like to find another DVD to use to change it up. It did come with a total gym DVD but she goes too fast in between exercises to add equipment. Any suggestions?
  • Thanks for the helpful tips. I have a HRM and use it when I ride mostly to see the calories burned, but will definitely try being mindful of the heart rate and start building on that.
  • I'm new to cycling. Love it. Any suggestions as to a beginner goal?
  • She also has plus petites. If you decide on the super stretch they say to size down
  • Have any of you tried Diane Gilman pants. She designs her clothes to fit the baby boomers. She has jeans that are called super stretch which you can buy and they still fit a size smaller or bigger. She also makes the waist bigger that is a common problem to get rid of muffin top. She has petites also. They are a bit pricey…
  • Hi I am 5'1' and I try to stay at around 1200 calories a day except on weekends when I usually go over. But I brisk walk on the dreadmill 5 days a week, and the total gym 3 days a week. I take weekends off of exercise but try to get golf in. I worked on putting in a garden last week and earned a lot of extra calories. I…
  • I would like to join if not too late?
  • I just bought the total gym from QVC and love it also. It came with Todd Durkin's DVD's for beginner intermediate and advanced which you can follow along with him. That's the way I do it. He times you at 30 seconds per exercise and takes about 45 minutes It even has a shorter version of the workout if you don't have time…

  • I don't know where you are from but Dillard's has almost a whole floor of petites. The ones I go to are in the St. Louis area.

  • Hi I'm sorry for your loss. I lost my husband of 37 years to cancer in December 2011. I dealt with it by throwing myself into losing weight and exercising. It truly can make you feel better and get your mind off of it and doing something for you. I know how hard it is because my husband and I did everything together and…

  • I love all the Blue Bunny frozen yogurt. The caramel praline crunch,chocolate cherry bordeaux, and the lowfat homemade vanilla are all 1/2 cup for 120 calories and has all the probiotics. The fat free homemade vanilla is 1/2 cup for 90 calories. All of them really good if you are craving ice cream. The fat free vanilla…
  • Hi everyone I bought a weed trimmer today. I hate to admit it but I never mowed the lawn. (When I got married 35 years ago I never started it cause as you all know once you start a job it is yours forever). I live in the country and so we had a huge lawn and my husband being a farmer had a small tractor for a mower which I…

They did not have them at the store the other day so I got the caramel praline crunch it too is 120 cal for 1/2 cup. Really good.…
