Saw the pictures MeRoMo you look good in white :lol: Instead of shoveling just put a sign in front of your house stating "Snow for Sale" and see if you get any takers...Sorry for making fun. I am still trying to get all the ice off my drive away from two weeks ago. Hope you have a great snowday and tried not to be too bored. You can think of me stuck in my office working away until 6 pm with no relief in sight!

So I think today should count for all of my exercise this week :) I did two hours of shoveling and then just had to help push my dads car up a HUGE mountain of a hill. I'm not leaving the house again until its all gone :) I can deal with being bored!!!

M.

M. I notice a common theme in your pictures :lol: I shouldn't laugh, we'd actually like to have snow like that, just not necessarily all in one day. :D I 'm trying to think of the postives about your situation. 1. you'll lose weight shovelling the snow, and tone :strong: 2. you'll save on heating as this is the best insulation. Your heating bill is probably as outrageous as mine, so yo ucan appreciate this. ;) Your place is starting to resemble an igloo :lol:

Trixi, I like your idea. Selling the snow, you just never know....:lol:

Diana

Hello all from Canada! I am new to this forum stuff so bear with me...I live in Calgary....brrrrrr. But not as bad as you guys in Ontario have been getting it. I've been hiding in the background reading all the posts and thought I'd jump in. I used to be over 200 lbs (stopped getting on the scale then) size 16-18, and now am at 140lbs. and a size 6-7. I haven't tried dieting really and am allergic to excersice...it makes me sweat, my heart beats funny-lol- but decided that I want to be at my ultimate healthiest when I hit 40. (37 now). I eat all day long, no exhaggeration. At least 8-10 times a day. But only fruits and veggies during the day and chicken or fish with salad and other veggies. I have only 5-8 more lbs to go and I will have accomplished what I set out to do. It has taken me a couple of years but was on my own doing it. I would love to join the chats and make new friends.

Remember, those who have the willpower will always come out on top! :flow2:

Welcome Canadian Red! :balloons:

So yeah, I think the idea of selling snow is a good one...does anyone have a truck I could borrow to ship it down south! :)

Its not all that bad I guess, we have power and HEAT!! I got up to the store to get some food to last us for the weekend, but it was slim pickings (So what I got probably isn't the best food to be eating...but oh well!)

So I've been ranting all day...and I'm very sorry!! I promise I won't do that anymore (Or until Saturday/Sunday when we get 15-20 more cm!!)

How is everyone else doing? Got any exciting plans for the weekend?

Cheers!!

M.

Thanks for the Welcome! :grouphug: Weekend! I would love to relax and do nothing but I have two teenagers and housework to do :crazy: I think that after reading all of your posts, I may even get on my treadmill.

Welcome here Canadian Red. Wow, Red, you are superwoman! :spin: Way to go! You must ahve been a dedicated girl! Obviuosly you eat good things as you wouldn't be losing the weight otherwise. How often d oyou use your treadmill, or any other exercise? I use my bike, and I actually don't mind it. I've jsut sort of gotten ussed to it in my routine. Mind my asking how tall you are? My goal is similar to yours, and am just wondering approx what size I'll be wearing, just something ot look forward to for me.
My plans for the weekend are to watch my DH curl, I'll enjoy that. Oha and going out for supper tomorrow with a group of friends. Should be fun.
Bye, Diana :wave:

Welcome Canadian red!!!!!!! you have a great sense of humor!! I think I am too alergic to exercise but got the shot for it...it was called "get off your butt or your butt will smother you befre you can sneeze" shot....if your looking to have a yard sale MeroMo I know some Jamaicans who love to bobsled!!!!!

Hope you all have a great night!!! and MeRoMo If it was me I would have b#$%hed more!!! so don't worry....

Happy Saturday....going toattempt to get more ice off my drive way....Hope everyone has a great day!

:wave: i lost 1.4 today.
m: i guess you'll be shovelling this weekend.
it's raining here today
:) glen

:cb: :cb: :cb: Way to go Glen on the loss. Look, you'll never be in the 270's again! Rain, interesting, is that normal for this time of year? We're above 0 today as well. Nice, hope for spring!
Diana

Great job Glen!!!!!!! We spent alot of time getting the ice off the drive way in time for another five cm to fall!! At least it was mild today. I can't remember a sunny day. Looking at MeRoMo pics I thought to myself that the sky was gorgeous. Tonight we are just going to relax and watch movies. I am finally start to fell a little normal. Still have pain in one side of my face (I think its the glands but feels like a toothache)

I am hoping for spring like today!

Hello everyone

After 2 weeks of staying the same at ww I got a little depressed, then a little angry. While at angry I took it out on my bike and best friend(I made her walk 30 minutes every nite this last week. It's paid off in a lost inch. I have now settled down to my exercise plan of biking, sit-ups, running stairs, tread-mill and exercise videos(I change up every other day) I want to see more loss.

Remomo Sorry to hear you're shut-in, it's something that would drive me nuts too. I walk in the rain( like last nite )or the snow( it makes me move faster) I saw your pictures and I'm glad we had nothing like that here lately(and I 'm hoping not at all this year)

zanne Hearing about your friends' loss is enough to motivate me to work harder. It's great to hear about someones sucess.

canadianred Sorry to take so long to welcome you but WELCOME! ! WELCOME!

glen BRAVO on your loss :D :D I am waiting for a weight loss along with another inch loss. Keep up the good work.

Trixi I hope you're feeling 100% better soon. :^:

Way to go Glen! I'd like to see the same results this week at my WW meeting, but with all the junk food that I ate this weekend I'm thinking its not going to be as good!

And contrats to you too NC, a whole inch! I bet you're excited!!!

Trixi: I'm glad to hear you're feeling better. I hope you continue to get better and better!!

So its raining in Toronto? Any idea how the weather will be there this weekend? We're leaving for the city on Friday...I'm so excited!!! :)

I did walk alot of walking this weekend, can't start my car (I think being under six feet of snow tends to kill a battery...) and I actually don't mind all the hills (I like at the top of a HUGE hill!!!) Its snowing again today, nothing like it was on Thursday and Friday, so I'm thinking I might head out for another walk.

Well, hope everyone is having a happy Sunday!

Cheers,

M.

Ok so this is it....I have had my fun and gained a ton in the past three weeks. Two because of just me being stupid and last week I had no energy to even try. Today is day one again for me. I am finally feeling 100%. Thanks for all the warm wishes.

I will be a good girl and eat right and exercise and nooooooo drinking. I am really upset with myself and I know if I cheat even a little I wont be able to stop. I promise myself to stay on track and win this battle with myself in order to be a better person. I have been so grumpy that I am sure my fiance is about ready to leave me. I know its depression because I have not been OP butI am the only one that can doing anything about it.

I consider this day one again and will make it to day 365 if it kills me. I will exercise, eat right and drink tons of water. I will not quit.

Thanks for listening. Hope you all have a great week.

MeRoMo It is suppose to be pretty mild here. Its not calling for any snow, or rain and I hope the weather is great for your weekend. You are going to be really close to me, Zanne and Hefty.

Northernclipper keep up the good work and send some motivation my way please?

Trixi.
