Road trip tomorrow. I hope the weather's good. The college boy called and I guess there's been no talks yet. The strike continues. He wants to come home. So, I'm off to Welland in the morning.
Hello Canada. Saskatchewan is cold and calling for more snow! I hit my first stepping stone today! I hit 5 pounds of weight loss since starthing March 1, I am ready for more!
Another cold one down here by Kingston! Minus 3C, but the sun is shining to beat the band, so my car should be nice and solar heated by the time I get in it to go grocery shopping! March is such a yo-yo month for weather. It's like it just dangles spring in front of you like a , but doesn't let you have it till April comes.
Good morning, not too bad here, still early so hopefully it will brighten up. Had some down right spooky fog last night, I don't like fog. And I remember my youngest son would cry if it was foggy and he had to go out in it...we lived behind the school and I would then drive him and walk hand in hand into the school.
I ate ok yesterday till the toast, cinnamon raisin. Ate 4 slices. Can you say Carbaholic?
Hello fellow Canadians!! Thought I'd pop in and see how you all are doing!
The weather here in Winnipeg is quite nice today! It's -10 or -16 with the wind chill! nice and sunny too! So far no sign of snow coming and that's a blessing,I don't like to shovel!! lol!
Take care,
Wendy
Happy St. Patrick's Day . . . He's wearing a white coat today. Just to let us know that Winter is not yet over. At least the sun is trying to shine.
If you don't like fog, I definitely can't recommend moving to the east coast, Angie. Fog is almost a way of life down here. I don't like to shovel either, Wendy and today's snow blanket is not really enough to worry about, luckily. It will melt away soon if the sun stays out.
Have a great day, gang, and remember to wear something green.
Did anyone see Primetime last night? Ive never watched it before but someone from another group was talking about it. There were these people who agreed to have their picture taken wearing only a bikini, we are talking about poeple who are weighing in at lowest 161 lbs all the way up to 261 lbs for the females there was one male and he was 279 lbs. So they take their picture a couple of months ago. And are told they have to lose 15 lbs in the next 8 weeks or they are going to broadcast their picture. Talk about pressure.
anyways all but 1 made it she had a 13 lbs loss. She did alot of weight training and had gone down 3 dress sizes.
So fellow Canadians, would you have ever signed up for something like this?
NO WAY! I'm sure it was a great incentive; but kind of 'the carrot' vs 'the stick' type of incentive. I've always been a carrot kind of girland this sounds too much like a 'big stick' to me.
You know what...it might be an incentive to me. But then I saw these dee-lish shamrock cut-outs today at preschool and they were so wonderful, I'm pretty sure even public humiliation wouldn't have been enough to keep me at bay from those cookies!!
Well, its still pretty cold here, but the SUN!...Oh, my, it feels so nice on my head UV is such an under-rated thing, unless you're deprived of it all winter. There's not a cloud in the sky today!!
Heck no! I never would have signed up for something like that, not just because of the pressure but I'm sure after the broadcast I would probably just pig out . I think the motivation needs to come from inside in order to stick with it long term and of course to keep the weight off after.
It's bright and sunny today but very chilly, brrrr!
