Angie I love that "taking it off" show! To be seen half naked would be a incentive to lose weight though, I shudder at the thought too!!

meowee 03-20-2006 08:44 AM

I think (hope) there are other, equally effective incentives that are not quite so humiliating as a public semi-naked display of this thing I laughingly call my body. :D

Another cold and sunny day shaping up. Looks like the heavy snow is going to miss us after all.

Have another moving and shaking kind of day. See you soon. :carrot:

Hi everyone! It's minus 2 here, but the windchill is minus 6. The sun is brilliant and shining, though, so it inspired me to wash my quilt on my bed and hang it out on the line. I just checked and it isn't frozen...but the sunny side is getting warm and it's just about dry. I love, Love, LOVE hanging bed stuff out on the line...you just cannot copy that aroma no matter how hard they try to put it in fabric softener. And its only this time of year...later in the summer, things just don't have that spring-fresh smell after being on the line...or maybe I get used to it...but it definitely seems stronger in the spring.

Happy Monday!!

Hi tech.

In my dreams of what it might be like to be really, really wealthy . . . I have my 100% egyptian cotton bed sheets laundered, dried outside, and then freshly ironed by my 'staff' everyday . . . to me that would be true luxury.

da fat n da furious 03-20-2006 12:51 PM

techwife, I bought a candle from Linen n Things, its called fresh cotton, and that reminds me of clothes that have been hanging outside.

ITs chilly today,,,brrr..
just calling to make all my appointments, need to see a chiropractor, feeling off centred. Either that or we are going to get a major weather change, Ive had a migraine since late last night, barely slept.

Wide in Winnipeg 03-21-2006 12:23 AM

Late but who cares!! I would have so done that 15lbs in 8 weeks! Just the kind of kick in the butt I would need!:D
I also loved that taking it off show! Way cool! I liked the brothers they had on there one was dark haired and the other was ??redhead/blonde!! They were really funny!!

da fat n da furious 03-21-2006 08:56 AM

WIW (wide in Winnipeg) I know me too! Thought what a great attitude for life to some extent, the one who didn't like veggies...that show I could of went over there and smacked him up side the head! 2 words,,GROW UP!

And that woman Trina? She was from Calgary and had problems with her husband...well don't get me started on those two, both to me were messed in the heads.

Im not sure if I would of been a good mix, that was the group I could of been in with...very happy I wasn't.

Anyways todays weather looks and feels great,,,nice and warm,,,and its almost 7 am. Off to drive Mr. T to band,,,arghhh I hate early mornings. Stayed up late watching Miracles in the ER, some woman had a 156 lbs benign tumor in her stomach! Can you say she wasn't facing reality? Ya would think at 5'2, that even 20 lbs tumor would be noticable,,,and that she would not walk but run to the nearest medical help?
Anyways watching wayyy too much tv,

meowee 03-21-2006 09:03 AM

I saw that program last night, too, Angie. Unbelievable . . . said she didn't like doctors and hospitals . . . but give me a break. Looked (and must have felt) like she was pregnant with a volkswagen. Scary what stupid things we human beings will let happen to us.

goy 03-21-2006 02:27 PM

meowee....... sorry i just noticed that you asked me where i was in NS... i am in yarmouth.......

da fat n da furious 03-22-2006 01:17 AM

Hey all,

Doing the healthy clean eating. Need to drink more water, Brandon has lost 3 lbs since last week. I have not weighed myself, I guess I should.

Weather was beautiful today, had alot of errands, and feeling like I accomplished alot.

meowee 03-22-2006 07:17 AM

Good Morning . . . another dull day . . . but that's OK, it sort of suits my mood . . . or maybe my mood sort of suits the weather. :^:

Another pound has gone to 'ugly-pound-heaven'. On Sunday it would have been two, but one of them just couldn't bear to become 'official' I guess. So I'll settle for one.:D

Hey dafatn. Good for Justin. :hug: You've probably lost too since you've been eating clean. :hug: Well, Goy, sounds like we've got mainland NS covered from end to end. ;)

Have a good day, gang. See you soon. Keep on doing the good stuff. :carrot:

hefty1 03-22-2006 08:27 AM

hey meowee it's sunny here and i'm keeping it. i'm starting an accounting course on monday. :) glen

meowee 03-22-2006 08:49 AM

Haw, haw, Hefty. The sun will eventually work it's way East and you can't stop it. Enjoy it while you've got it, boyyo. :carrot:

Wide in Winnipeg 03-22-2006 12:01 PM

YA!! I know I would have given Trinas hubby the big old boot as soon as I found out he was messing around!!! lol!! And by the looks of him who would have wanted him(yuck) lol!!!:D
Yes the veggie hating guy was just being plain lame when it came to the veggie ordeal,for a 30+++ something guy to be scared to eat his veggies is totally absurd! lol!!

they have a show called miracles in the ER??? That sounds great! I don't get to watch much tv with a 2 year old around:( and when I do I'm far to tired to watch anything!! I used to love watching Trama in the ER and birth stories,etc...now I watch Little Bear and Franklin LOL!!! My favorite is Toopy and Benoo HAHA! I also LOVE to watch Miami ink when I think about it,and have the time.
So far here is about the same as last time I posted here,-8 and sunny! Another month and I'll be getting ready for camping season! I'm pumped about that!Started to buy the necessities already,like the camp site,jigs for fishing,cloths for cleaning etc. Can't wait!:)
W.

techwife 03-22-2006 12:20 PM

W. - I love the picture of you and your son. He looks like such a happy guy!! My vast exposure to the tv also includes the Nick Jr set. Someday I'll have the tv to myself again and I can watch what I want through tear-stained eyes, missing my little guy at kindergarden. :(

Well, the sun is shining on...THE ICE BREAKER!! It's parked at the breakwall down on the river as we speak!! My favorite sign of spring. AND, they're loaded up with the channel markers because the ships start moving tomorrow!! I can't wait. My son and I will be going to the water when we see one coming, get out our binoculars and find the ships flag...then we look up the flag's country, then find it on our globe to see how far its come around the world just so we can see it float passed little ole Cape Vincent.

I'm so happy!!:carrot: I can hardly wait!!

da fat n da furious 03-23-2006 12:47 AM

AAAAAAAAAH I can relax now, I know for a fact I did wayyy too much today. Seriously I covered this whole city on my errands. So much accomplished,,,feeling quite smug. Ate super healthy, other then drinking chai tea latte, not sure if thats good or bad. Tasted darn good so going with bad...lol

Weather was balmy...spring like. wrecked my favorite leather shoes today when I got stuck in some mud...grrr

meowee 03-23-2006 01:29 PM

Nova Scotia checking in . . . another dull and relatively cold day. I think we were having nicer weather in January than now.

One good thing about being at the grandchildren stage of life . . . you do get to watch 'adult' TV . . . never fear, girls, your time will come again.

Have a good day doing all the right stuff. :carrot:

goy 03-23-2006 01:34 PM

another NS check in... not too sunny, but not cloudy.... just an inbetween day. hehe
i went to the gym this am while my little one was in pre school...... now i sit at the computer while my house work waits for me. hehe

da fat n da furious 03-23-2006 02:49 PM

Alberta weather seems to be the hot spot! Snow is melting fast here...my dog is sunning herself on the window ledge.

well off to find some colorful boas,,,need to make a parrot costume.

3fcuser1058250 03-23-2006 07:08 PM

Ontario checking in .. ran 8.17k it was awesome 10C and :sunny:, I ran in a long sleeve t-shirt, it's all good :running:

da fat n da furious 03-24-2006 01:14 AM

Ilene, i feel like Ive run a few KMs.... I have been doing errands trying to get things for the caberat Im stage managing next month. And no other parents signed up to help with our school play so Ive been doing both props and costumes, have most of the props. And 90% of the costumes. YAY!

well I had a great day, warm weather,,,but again with the spooky fog.

meowee 03-24-2006 09:39 AM

The sun is shining here in 'eastern' Nova Scotia and it's a couple of degrees above freezing. I always feel better when the sun is out, :) even though I pulled something in the back of my right knee yesterday and it is very sore. Just thinking about your 8+ km run is making it throb. :dizzy: Think I'll take a couple of tylenol and put it to bed for a bit.

See you later, gang. :carrot: Hope you each will have a couple of extra minutes of exercise today to make up for the fact that I don't think I'll be doing any. :^:

techwife 03-24-2006 09:50 AM

Checking in from just south of the border here! Did I mention the ships are moving along the river? Hallelujah!

Cloudy today, but yesterday it was sunny and wonderful. It didn't get above freezing, which is good because then the dog can go outside without dragging in half the backyard. We haven't had any precipitation, frozen or wet, for about two weeks...which is so nice. It'll cut down on the mud when it warms up.

BUT, I took my son for a bike ride and warmed up our rosy cheeks with cocoa for him and green tea for me. That sun is just to nice to let a little coldness get in the way.

Talk to you guys soon!!

Kris

hefty1 03-24-2006 11:49 AM

hi all. sunny here. i'm going to the y later. glen

da fat n da furious 03-25-2006 02:39 AM

hello all, again we had a warm day,,,had a busy day, but got alot done.

feeling good, getting my strength back, didn't eat so great, went to Red Lobster with a good friend,,,had garlic shrimp,,,and it was dripping in butter...bad bad

meowee 03-25-2006 01:05 PM

Hi all . . . nice and sunny now, although it was quite foggy first thing this morning.

Nothing exciting around here . . . my knee is still bothering me and I have to go out to pick up a few groceries so It will, no doubt, be worse when I'm finished.

Have a great weekend. Keep up the good stuff and here's a little dose of :dust: to help us along. I really need it because you've got me drooling for those garlic-cheese biscuits at Red Lobster. :D Luckily (unluckily) we don't have one around here.

hefty1 03-26-2006 08:41 PM

hello. where is everone. it was sunny here. glen

da fat n da furious 03-27-2006 01:01 AM

I would love to have more buiscuts....lol did I say that outloud?

wonderful warm weather here,,,feels like spring!

Ate a horribley high cal breakfast...then burned it all off with priming our basement twice, then painting it twice,,,,my forearms ache.
Got our taxes, all organized as best as I can, and so now just have to hand it in,,,see how much we owe...*sigh

meowee 03-27-2006 12:02 PM

Hello everybody . . . sunny and fairly mild . . . but I'm afraid I don't match the weather. I had a very nasty 'hypo' in the middle of the night (very low blood sugar level) and after I had a little nibble to bring it back up I just kept on eating. Result . . . I consumed half my day's calories by 4 am. :o Oh well, I'll just do the best I can for the rest of the day. Luckily my week had been pretty good until now.

Have a good day, gang. Keep in doing the right stuff and I'll see you soon. :carrot:

meowee 03-28-2006 01:00 PM

Good Morning from eastern Nova Scotia . . . sunny and windy around here. Where is everybody today?

Pleased to mention that my calories for the week are within 1% of plan with today to go. Yesterday was an almost disaster, but the week is doing OK. T:carrot: omorrow, of course, is my weigh-in day, so we'll see what the scale has to say.

Have agood one, gang.

da fat n da furious 03-28-2006 04:25 PM

Good day all,
weather looks beautiful over here, warm and mild, no snow. I am doing a bit of spring cleaning and have most of the windows open,,,even thou that means I will have to dust again...lol

Eating clean, need to do more water intake though

Dragonfly1 03-28-2006 04:34 PM

Hey all you Canadain Chicks,

New to the site and loving it. Good to see lots of Canadian support. With the weather so nice here in Calgary I have no excuses not to be active.

meowee 03-29-2006 07:53 AM

Good Morning from eastern Nova Scotia . . . another nice sunny day . . . don't you just love it.

Another ugly pound has left the building. Not the fastest weight loss I've ever seen but at least things are moving in the right direction.

Have a good day and keep on moving and shaking, gang. :carrot:

da fat n da furious 03-29-2006 04:15 PM

Dragonfly, it is beautiful here, I shouldb e out walking my dog. Instead I went shopping, groceries that is

Dragonfly1 03-29-2006 05:06 PM

Ya, it is a beautiful day in Calgary. Took the dog for a walk yesterday, hopt to again tonight.

Wide in Winnipeg 03-29-2006 06:15 PM

:D Oh rub it in! lol!!:D


Out here in Winnipeg it's about 0 and cloudy,looks like rain too:(

How are you all doing??

meowee 03-30-2006 08:26 AM

Another beautiful day in Nova Scotia . . . sunny and mild, but a little windy. Hope the weather in Winnipeg is better today.

Notice that it's still pretty quiet around here.

Ruthxxx 03-30-2006 08:40 AM

Quick hi! The South Beach Forum keeps me pretty busy but I do like to pop in here to maintain my Canadian status!

Spring is finally arriving here - it actually was above freezing last night. The ground is still frozen but tomorrow's warm rain should solve that problem. Then the gardening season will begin! I'm off to town to treat myself to a new wheelbarrow today. This afternoon, I plan to stir up some of the leaf mulch that is keeing my front perennial bed frozen. I want daffodils!

March certainly is going out like a lamb although NL got a dump of snow this week! Anybody here from Newfoundland and Labrador?

3fcuser1058250 03-30-2006 08:47 AM

:wave: Hey Ruth!! I wish I had the ambition to start looking into the gardening and lawning stuff, but I'd rather be running :shrug:, so in a few I'm running :running: to the gym to work back and chest...

Another beaut if a day hre in Eastern Ontario... +10c and it's not even 9am yet... Yes WinW I AM rubbing it in :lol:... But don't you worry, this boasting will come and haunt me when it's gorgeous there and rainy here...

da fat n da furious 03-30-2006 11:22 AM

Good morning, beautiful here,
Had a busy day yesterday, had to see the optomitrist (sp=eye Dr.) I was making a costume piece with some synthetic fabric and had a particle get in my eye. The dangers of theatre...lol Coming from me that is the truth, fell off the throne and broke my foot last summer. (throne=king's chair that was on top of a set of stairs, had to explain cause at the hospital they actually thought I fell off my toilet, not that I haven't fallen off my toilet,,,well not mine but thing is I fell off and did hurt my ankle, AND that people is another story..lol)
Did some shopping, bought a new shirt, is a smaller size,,,wahoo! I guess all that clean eating does work.
