Welcome to the list! You will probably hear this a zillion times but to get

in the best shape you should try and add some weight work to your routine.

Muscle burns more than fat making it easier to lose weight. Plus you get

that shapely muscled look (and there are more reasons to lift, but can't

think of them right now). I like lifting weights and you will not get big

by doing it. I'm not sure what is a good intro to lifting but The Firm is

probably not a bad place to start. There are also a lot of beginner weight

tapes out there I've just never used them so I don't know what is good. You

can take a look at www.collagevideo.com and find a lot of different tapes

and look at clips. I recently started lifting with Cathe (www.cathe.com) and

went from a size 10 to a size 4 (in a matter of 4 months) and I lose weight

without much trouble doing this. While I do enjoy weight work for the legs I

also like Pilates or ballet type work. Some of my favorites are Lotte Berk

method because they are quick and I get so sore. I also enjoy The Method

tapes and just about anything else I've tried in this category. Oh the New

York City Ballet Workout is great too. A bit artsy in production but a great

workout. But for the easy weight loss, I go for working the muscles with

weights. If you've not tried weights before, you need to remember not to

work the same muscles everyday (so go for total body every other day or

upper one day, lower the next or something similar)

Hi, Tyra. Welcome!

I'm from WI and I'm part of the male minority of the group. My

wife and I do tae bo DVD's and I do martial arts. It sounds like

you've made some great personal improvements. When you get a chance,

please post a pic of yourself so we can all put a face to your

(pretty) name.

Welcome, Tyra! It is good to have you here! I'm

currentlyin the middle of a Turbo Jam kick and I also

have the Yoga Shakti DVD that I just love (although

lately, I have to admit, I've neglected it due to lack

of time to fit everything in!) You may want to give

some of the Turbo Jam toning DVDs a try - they are

fun, too and although I didn't bond with them right

away, I've grown to really like them.

it is great to meet you! Look forward to hearing more

about you and your workouts.

Welcome sprouter! The forum has tons of information as does the

Sproutpeople.com website. Use the search on the Sproutpeople group

website and it might bring up the info you want. Sproutpeople also

have fabulous sprouting seeds. I just switched from alfalfa to the two

Hi Kathy Welcome to the group! Please feel free to ask any question you might have and we will really try to help you find the answer! Treatment is usually recommended not by viral load but by how much damage you have to your liver. That takes a biopsy, have you had one recently? There are some docs who recommend tx for everyone but since this treatment is so serious, I think each person has to decide for themself.. make sure you are making an educated choice honey.. dont let anyone push you into tx as you can be left with serious side effects that are permanent after tx, even if you DO get lucky and get rid of the virus. There is NO CURE,, only remission. Depending upon what geno you are,, your chance of reaching SVR is only 50%.. Your viral load is not considered high, its significant but not high( they consider anything above 2 million to be high). You can

have a very high viral load for years and still have no damage,, and you can have a low viral load and have lots of damage,, thats why you need a biopsy before you decide whether or not you want to treat,anyway,, welcome to the group and please make yourself comfy here! jax moderatorKathy <anarchy353@...> wrote: Hi.

Kathy, Okay hon here is the straight story on treatment vs natural remedies. There are several different types of treatments and more are being developed. Right now the two most widely prescribed treatments are Pegasy with Co-pegasy and it is made by the Roche drug company (I used to work for Hoffman-La Roche many moons ago.) And the Peg-intron and Rebetrol from the Scherling Corp. I have been on both kinds of combo treatment and with the Peg-intron I got my virus count down to 1500 at the end of treatment. But did not achieve the undetectable level we all hope for. On the Pegasy I achieved undetectable at 12 weeks actually and remain so throughout treatment. 3 months post treatment I was still undetectable. But sadly it came back. But I have to say this, I am not discouraged because here are my reasons: I am genotype 1a one of the hardest to treat and reach SVR Number 2, I was overweight both times during treatment. Overweight people have a much harder time staying at undetectable. ( I am not just overweight I am considered bordering on morbidly obese). I will be truthful with you, I really think I would have reached SVR had I been at a more reasonable weight. Say under 200 lbs. And both times I was under a lot of stress while I was on treatment. Various reasons but stress can have a lot to do with how you react to treatment. Will I treat again? You betca, I am going to see a new doctor in April as I have moved and my old doctor is 4 hours away. There are other treatment opinions available to me. Now for the natural remedies, let me say this. They are to treat symptoms and by no means are they a cure or treatment for the disease. I will let others that are more learned in the herbal medication advise you on them. Milk thistle is a good herb to take with Hep C. Like I said I will let others Like Jackie,Tim, Nikki talk to you about natural helps. But by no means think that any herbal medication or even traditional med can cure you. The treatment only puts the virus in remission. For many it has been put in permanant remission. Such as Jackie-she is 5 years post treatment and still clear. She is one of our success stories. And there are many others here with the same success stories. Maybe one of these days I will be one of those successful people. Love

The most important thing for you is to have a biopsy , but since you are a log 5 the time to start treatment would be soon . Besides while you have no insurance you are eligible for commitment to care and other programs. The longer you wait to treat the harder it will be for you to get rid of . There are things like milk thistle that can help reduce the stress on your liver . And welcome to the group ...... moderatorKathy <anarchy353@...> wrote: Hi. I am new to this group.

Cool! Another area of our wonderful state represented!

Hi , Welcome - I find a good souce of information on videos at www.collagevideo.com - this is a good source of research on videos - later you can buy the video from www.half.com or another discounter or from them (they carry some very good videos that they seem to carry exclusively). You can request a written catalog which I find very useful since you can save it and mark it up as needed. Their catalog has a section devoted to pregnancy tapes.

hi melissa, just wanted to say welcome. i tried her cardio sculpt dance from netflix. i liked the weight section but the cardio was not only easy, but cheesy(even for her) and was not tthat well cued. but i do have some denise videos, b/c i started out with her a few years back. i still find use of them, in fact i am getting over a bad head cold so i will probably be doing some denise tomorrow or sunday. many in this group have tried turbo jam and love it, so you might get the same out of it too. i also like karen voight, kathy smith, and LOVE my cathe workouts. i have a bunch of videos from others but these as well as the firm are my favorite. have a great night kassia

Thank you all for your kind words and welcomes! I know I will learn a

lot. Although I do have another question. I have read that once you are

into your 2nd and 3rd trimester of pregnancy, you sould not do

exercises on your back. At least your abs, and that you sould do

standing ab work. Does anyone know if you can use the stability ball

during pregnancy. I would be worried about balance, but I do know some

people use the steps, and I would be worried about the same thing....

Thanks Again!
