    :embarassed: Doh! I see its been a few weeks since I posted. Im terrible at thinking of things to say. I guess as the group is still new, it's normal to be quieter at this stage. :smile:

    Just checking in, I hope everyone who reads this is doing well. :smile: The weather here in Calgary is beautiful, even with that freak snowstorm a couple weeks ago. It isnt unheard of for snow to fall in September here, but it is uncommon. Lots of broken trees in the city & the clean-up still continues even now.

    Well, I figure I better post something so MFP doesnt disable this group for inactivity. I hope everyone had a great thanksgiving weekend. :)

    The weather is getting much colder here in Calgary but I'm determined to stay active. There is 4 flights of stairs in my building so I will see how many flights I can do in 15 minutes, then try and build on that. If anyone has any suggestions, I would love to hear them. :)

    I figured I had better post something so that MFP doesnt remove this group. I am still hoping that eventually others will join in and share.
    When I checked the mail yesterday, there was an info package from the pre-op clinic of the hospital. All standard stuff. I am a bit concerned that they are requesting a chest X-ray. I quit last year, but live with a smoker now. I was tested for COPD and asthma, but was not diagnosed with either. I did a Rx for a daily inhalation powder (Seebri Breezehaler) and a rescue inhaler that I never used.
    Christmas went okay. I roasted a chicken with a few veggies. I only had a small amount myself and more veggies than chicken. I did eyeball the pumpkin pie on the table quite a bit, but managed to stay away from it. (This morning, I announced that if someone didnt eat the last piece before 9am that I would no longer be able to stay away. It was gone 3 mins later, lol)
    I hope everyone reading this is having a great Christmas season!
    - Allison :)
