Down 13 lbs since April and 10 more to go until I reach my second mini goal. I have a wonderful husband, a beautiful kitty cat that I am a mommy to and a great family. I want to be healthier and fitter so I can enjoy life and be in the best shape to live a long and healthier life.

    That picture is from two summers ago when my husband and I went to Bowser for Vacation. Neither of us had been to Coombs in forever and were both surprised at how much it had changed. Thanks.

    When i was younger my grandparents took me to Canada a couple of times. Havent been there on my own though. Which is funny since its only like 3 hours away to the locks from where i grew up and still live today. I get asked alot if i am from Canada though because of my accent. :smile:

    any time I go to Washington state people say I have a Canadian accent but I do notice an accent on some Americans when I cross the boarder.

    I have travelled to Washington State, California, Nevada, NY, Pennsylvania and New Jersey.

    I spent 2 summers working in Illinios for my internship for college and all my coworkers used to laugh at me cause i say "ehh" alot and i guess i pronouce the word "bag" funny. Wow you have been to alot of states though. I actually dont think i have been to any of the ones you listed.

    Don't live there anymore but I'm originally from Toronto (North York), went to high school in Montreal and lived in Westmount.

    I now live in Scotland, but I'm in Toronto a few times a year as I own a flat there still.

    Toronto to Scotland, what made you move so far from home? So I am guessing you are fluent in french, going to school in Montreal? I feel like the Canadian school system let me and many others down because even though we took french from grade 3 to 11, I honestly don't know much and having french class a few times a week for 30 -40 minutes isn't exactly teaching kids our other official language.
    I didn't know canadians said "bag" differently. People don't say Eh as much as people think here.
