I really wanted to sleep in today but of course woke up before everyone a few minutes ago
Do I go get a coffee or just lounge in bed???
My vote is for both!
I chose drinking my coffee while watching curling!!!! Does it get much more Canadian ?
Well maybe if I had a poutine
Throw in a Tim Hortons reference and even more Canadian!
I could go for an everything bagel with herb and garlic cream cheese hahah.
I will admit I am going curling at 1 today. So I am having a very Canadian kinds day0 -

That sounds fantastic! Maybe grab one for me too? You don’t have to eat it, just would be a nice gesture haha.
Omg! I’ve always wanted to try curling! This American is jealous...

I'm only 3 years outside of my 20's, for pete's sake. That said, anyone reading this, please feel free to add me!
Middle aged meaning, almost 60. I believe 30 is half way to 60.1 -
Hello everyone. I hope that you all are having a awesome day.2

Happy Hump day all! I have exercised for 6 days in a row. Today will be a rest day (although I should manage close to 20,000 steps). I'm really looking forward to relative sedentariness...4

I've found the app invaluable. My BP, 1AC and cholesterol have all gone from high to normal or low over the last year. I've lost around 20kgs.1 -

Hey well done. I've been working hard lately too. I can feel my body getting tired so I'm going to go easy today but i can feel changes so that keeps me going. It's amazing when you notice the hard work making a difference2 -
Have any of you tried or are currently doing Orange Theory or another similar group fitness like that? I used to love doing boot camp classes years ago. My biggest hurdle or at least my current excuse is the intimidation factor of just walking through the doors and not embarrassing myself trying to get started.1

I'm just a newbie to the group. This isn't my first time on MFP. I am came back as I reclaim my life after finding out I had (or still have) thryoid cancer. (The culprit to my 40 lb weight gain.)6

I've a friend who does it and loves it. I checked out the website and I felt the claims they made on there were to appeal to someone who doesn't really know much about fitness and wants a quick fix. From what my friend says it seems quite gimmicky. She'll tell me she ran at a quick per mile pace I asked for how long well it's just a quick interval. If you're into that kind of thing I'm sure it would be good. Not my thing.
Also why ever feel embarrassed for starting? Everyone has to and did start somewhere. I am often told at the rink someone was too intimidated because they saw the skaters were really good....know what if you make the effort someone like me with help you and give you some pointers. It takes a lot of guts to try.0 -
Starting over and looking for some middle aged dudes to help keep me accountable. 42 male with 60 to lose!2

This app has been a Godsend. It's helped me realize just how crappy I was eating... LOL. Congrats on quitting smoking.
Determination is all that is needed to succeed. I am a mother of 2 and they are my purpose for continuing to improve in all aspects of my life. Whatever it takes to keep yourself motivated! This place is an awesome asset in that journey.
Ok, I will stop sounding like an inspirational poster on the wall of HR...3 -

No I haven't tried it. But just remember everyone there was new once. So whilst you might feel embarrassed , push yourself to go in and once you've done that the biggest hurdle is over, you'll make friends and day 2 will be easier.
