  • Hi Lizziness - I hear you on the daylight - I can't wait until we get more and my emotional 'funks' become fewer. My diet has totally suffered this past week. I'm PMSing, and I just find it makes me have absolutely no will power what so ever. However, it does make me come out of it more motivated to actually have will power (if that makes sense), so hopefully it'll be for the best. I was down 10 pounds last week, but I think I'm going to forego this week's weigh in so I can get it back on track. I also want to sign up for some yoga lessons offered through the city recreation program, so that should be cool. Still haven't started exercising in earnest yet, but I can feel it tickling in my bones .

    Has anyone ever seen a yoga swing (it's what Rosie was demoing on 'The View' a few weeks ago). I saw it, and I WANT one!! It reminds me of playing on the swings as a kid! I'd totally have fun with that (and some exercise too). Now just to convince the bf to let me drill a hole in one of his house's exposed beams so I can hang it from his ceiling

    It's currently -15 or so (celsius), but it's supposed to be up to +15 later in the week. I'm VERY excited!
  • Mauvais - I hope you are feeling better. Sometimes a weekend of sleep is a good thing.

    Lizziness - I so get the whole cycle thing. I find that happening often. It should at least get better soon!

    Sillymonkey - sending some sun & warmth your way! And good luck convincing your bf.


    I am here. I just got back from 3 days in Las Vegas, which were fun. We got to see Spamalot, which was great! (Well, at least if you like Monty Python it is) I loved it. Mostly we just wandered around the whole weekend, which is great but my feet hurt by the end of it. It was a good time though. Now I am just waiting for Friday (then Saturday) to roll around so I can see my favorite bunch of Canadian musicians.
  • Thanks Squeaker!

    Glad you had a good trip to Vegas.
  • Lol - I caved and weighed-in today. And I didn't actually gain. Considering this past week included no tracking, a bunch of large meat portions, some very greasy pizza and even a poutine (fries, gravy and cheese), I consider myself blessed. So, this is the week to be totally back on track after my one week grace period. But yikes - no gaining? That's incredible!!
  • Ugh- been sick all weekend and living off soup and toast.

    DH just got back from L.A. today - boy did I miss him! The house was too quiet without him.
  • Hi everyone!
    First of all I apologize for not being here for months, secondly can I come back? Please,please,Please??? Hope everyone is doing well! Look forward to chatting with old friends and meeting new ones.
    Hugs to all
    Virginia
  • Welcome back Virginia!

    I hope you are feeling better Mauvais!
  • Hi Virginia!

    I'm still sick - this is ridiculous! But am am better than I was.

    Haven't been on much as I just haven't had the energy to post. I've been going to work and then coming home and crashing.
