Morning, all! :wave:

I was looking at pix & video of Frederiction and area yesterday...it must be awful to have to deal with such conditions. Hope it stops raining before that happens down your way, Meowee!

Retired, are you anywhere near that 'berg parked in Qidi Vidi harbour? When we visited, it was late summer, so we didn't get to see any.

Today is one of my 'in-office' days, so I'm just going to wish everyone a great day, and get going. :wave:

Good Morning!

Weigh-in day again for me... wonder how much I've lost (or gained) over the last 4 days. Not looking forward to it, that's for sure.

I have a few friends in NB who are up to their eyeballs in water... not a pleasant thing to go through. I hope it dries up there soon.

When's the lobster festival in Pictou? I'm only an hour and a half away, maybe me, the hubby, and son will take a jaunt there. I'm all for meeting new people. (and yes, even grandmas with 5 cats LOL) I have 2 cats, a seal point Siamese named Eekem and a tortoiseshell with 27 toes named Portia. I love my furbabies!

Anyway, hope you're all having a great day, take care. :hug:

I definitly sense some sort of meeting happening! Im heading to canada in two weeks for a few months.. and i will be in halifax lots too. between pictou and halifax I think a meeting is called for with the three of us lovely ladies!!



In other news! I hit the 280 mark! that means im exactly 100 pounds away from my ultimate goal! and I Thiiiiink I won my first 5lb challenege on 3fatchicks! :)

How are all of your mornings going??

Abso-tively, Posi-lutely . . . and here's a little information for you . . . http://www.pictoulobstercarnival.ca/index.htm . . . about Lobster Carnival -- present and past.

PS:
But I'd be up for a little jaunt to Halifax too . . . if that suits you two better.

BTW . . . good luck for your weigh-in HALI . . . :crossed: . . . and :high: on your loss FAUX.

Hello everyone. The weather here is sunny and cold. Daffy, I'm 400K west of Quidi Vidi. My sister lives in St. John's and they have lots of bergs just outside the harbour. We've been watching them on the news and I've commented on how foggy St. John's is when we've been having sunny weather most days. Our bergs are farther down the bay from where we live. Our harbour is quite inland and the bergs don't come in here at all. We have to travel about 50-60K to see them and of course we don't because they are no big deal here. But that one that was on the news at Quidi Vidi has broken up since it was on tv and someone caught it on video. That was something to see as it cracked and churned up the water.

I must add my concerns for the people of NB near Fredericton and the route of the St. John River. I've never experienced a flood in my own home and it must be awful. I saw a house floating down river today as I watched the news. We've had some awful flooding here in NL in the past but not in the area where I live. Actually, I live at the top of a hill and if our house flooded it would be a major catastrophe for our town as most of it would be completely covered by water!

Good work there Fauxtini on your 5 pound challenge and hitting that 280 mark!

:carrot: Yay Fauxtini!!! That's awesome chickie!!! Keep up the good work!! :carrot:

Thanks for the support guys!!

I saw some pictures about the flood today too. CRAZY! I don't know many details.. I just hope people are ok and some stuff is salvagable :(

OMG -- we have sun -- what a treat. Hope some of it is reaching NB too; they certainly don't need any more wetness around St.John. :no:

Well, better get myself moving and shaking :carrot: See you later. . . :wave:

Mornin' Ladies!

The sun is finally shining!! Hopefully today I can get in the rest of my exercise for the TBL exercise challenge today.

I went for my weigh in last night... up a pound again... I had a meeting with my counsellor and we brainstormed for a while. She asked me if I was sure I was 5'7" b/c I seemed taller than that. Lo and behold, I'm almost 5'9" LOL I always thought it was kind of weird that when I was wearing my shoes, I was pretty much eye to eye with my 6'1" hubby. Anyway, so we realized that I was on the wrong plan for my height/body and that was why I suddenly started gaining again, too much food. I did manage to lose 6.5" in 4 weeks though, which is very impressive considering I rarely exercise. :o

Anyway, I'm rambling on... gotta go get ready to head out and enjoy the day. Hope you're all having a fabulous weekend so far!

Take Care :hug:

I weighed myself today after a 'tricks and hints in dealing with our scale' seminar with my DF and i'm up to 281.5 today!! that's a pound and half difference from yesterday!!! I'm going to blame it on TOM and go on to DF for 20 more minutes about how it ' just can't be'! lol

Maybe there's somethiong I don't understand HALI but if you turned out to be taller than they first thought, wouldn't that mean that you could actually have more food now.:dizzy:

Don't worry FAUX, the course of true loss never runs smooth either.

You want to see 'bouncy-bouncy' . . . here's what I call my "blip" chart for March and April. The only good thing is that April is lower than March (in most places). Though I posted this before, but can't find it now. :shrug:

Hello!

Karla

Hey faux....good job on the 180 mark.....forget about this morning's weight...your scale lies!! LOL

Meow, just saw your chart, maybe you can help!!! I tried making one for myself last night with Excel and almost lost my temper. I want a 2 line diagram, one being my projected 2 pound a week loss and the other being my actual loss. Did great with the projected (one straight line from top left to bottom right) but the actual loss I can't seem to get right. Argggg

Anyone better at Excel then I am ?? (added a pfd file as attachment)

Cloudy and cold here in Quebec. Went out for breakfast this morning and did very well. 2 pouched egges, slices of fruit, 1 coffee and multi-grain toast :-)

My furbabies went for grooming and now I am ready (i think) for housework....

Have a great Saturday xo

Start Date: April 24th 08
Start: 253
Actual: 249.4

Hi wkgirl. You fit the criteria-Canadian, eh! Yes, get that baby fat off now. I'm working on that also. My two babies are 28 and 23. :D

Beautiful sunny day here in Central NL. Skies are blue and the wind is a bit warmer than yesterday. Youngest son and his GF are gone for a walk and DH is asleep on the couch. Mom is taking a walk around the house (she calls it her exercise-she'll be 92 years old in two weeks). I'm inside wishing I was out. And to top it all off, I ate more macaroni and cheese than I should have. But it was good. DH is awake now and going for a bike ride. Just mom and me-hardly a chick online either. Have a good day, everyone.

Okay TAMMY . . . looks like I've got the other half of what you want . . . so I'll see if I can add a straight diagonal line to mine and get back to you if I succeed.

Hi ISABELLA . . . it often turns quiet on the weekends. :shrug:
