    Hello from Beautiful British Columbia, in the Okanagan Valley. I am still struggling with trying to lose even a pound. I quit smoking 10 months ago, and my body has just not figured out that it can now lose the extra weight. I joined cardio bootcamp just over a week ago. I LOVE it, it is a very intense one hour work out ranging from running, yoga, bosu ball, skipping, weights etc. So I have signed up for a month and I am really hoping that I see some results.
    Have a good one....:drinker:

    Kitty: What a beautiful region you live in. Do you get to ski?

    Nope, no skiing for me. I am a violinist so it is essential that I keep my arms/hands intact! I am such a klutz even on my own two feet that I think adding planks of wood would only increase the problem. Especially when it would allow my feet to splay in two different directions!

    I see you lost some weight, Carol, congratulations! I have been stuck on a plateau for what seems like forever. :sad: And (this seems more on-topic, and it's also true) I have been missing Vancouver tonnes lately. So you Canadians make sure to appreciate what you have! :laugh:

    Hey! I'm noticing there's nobody here from the east coast. I feel like a loner! LOL. I'm originally from Newfoundland but I just moved to Halifax, NS. So far I'm loving it! I'm going to have to recruit some fellow maritimers though.....

    Hey Peeps, how is it going this 'hump' day? Just got back from an 11 km hilly bike ride, my legs really felt this, especially after my killer yoga session yesterday.

    Dawn: The bootcamp sounds great and really challenging! Love that it seems to have a great variety, no chance to get bored. Congrats on quitting smoking!

    Kitty: LOL on the pieces of wood! I hear ya on not wanting to jeopardize those hands, do you play violin professionally? I have certainly hurt myself skiing, even fractured my thumb once, so you have good reason. Thanks on the congrats on losing weight. This was just my vacation weight, now the real work begins!

    Ctucker: Welcome, for sure recruit some other east coasters.

    Angie: Welcome, we are almost neighbors. I am just down the road in Montreal

    Okay off to shower

    Yes, but not as much as I used to, I'm going to school and thus am not able to work as much. Still no on the ski thing though! :laugh:

    Welome Mary and northermama:

    Love to see that there are many canadians on this site! I have a question for all you canucks out there:
    Isn't sometimes hard to log in your food.? Many of the articles are american, so I have to find one that I think is closest to what I have eaten. for instance, I throw out my cereal boxes as I store them in silos, so I don't have the nutrient info that I need to log in.

    Kitty: I would assume you are in music school? No matter what, you have chosen a beautiful place to study!

    Hope to hear from you all soon!

    Carol
