Hi all,

I thought I'd introduce myself. I've been lurking for a bit, I did post my bio a couple of weeks ago, but this is my first message to the group.

So...here I am. The forum seems to have an incredible amount of great information on it. I've been reading of the past messages and am enjoying it.

This week I joined Weight Watchers for the first time. So far I'm impressed. I'm following the Flex Points plan and so far so good. I'm also back at Curves and trying to get there 4 times a week.

A little about myself. I live in Canada. In the winter I'm a cashier at a local grocery store. In the summer I'm a retriever trainer. Training retrievers, mostly Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retrievers for the various Canadian and American Kennel Club tests that are available. This is where my passion lays.

I live "alone" with 5 dogs, 1 cat, 6 chickens, 3 ducks and around 20 pigeons. That keeps me out of trouble! In the past I've done a better job feeding these guys than feeding myself - I'm changing that! They are on on a biologically appropriate raw diet and thriving.

so, that's me in a nutshell....posting my first message so I can someday hit the magic number and get one of those really cool weight trackers! I really, really want one of those!

I love Ottawa, it's such a beautiful city. I spent a year there (over three college work terms) many, many, years ago. Anyway, welcome and feel free to jump right in.

Ottawa is an awesome place...if I do say so myself. I got to tour it in the Fall when I had friends visit from out west. It's rare to get to see the City as a tourist, it was allot of fun. Certainly allot to do. Now....if it could just stop snowing!! I keep telling myself "shoveling is good exercise" but I'm still sick of it!
