    I live in Dilworth, just across the border from Fargo. :) Nice to see a few friendly Minnesota faces on here :)

    moi. originally from Virginia/Eveleth, MN... now in Shakopee, but I've lived all over.

    I wonder if you knew my niece, Jessica? She lived in Virginia - was killed in a tragic car accident at 19 yrs old on one of the roads going up to the mines :brokenheart: She would be about your age now.

    My sister still lives there. And I have rellies in Mt Iron, too.

    Hmmm.....not sure if I can allow a Packer fan in without a green card.

    Sebeka isn't far from where I grew up in Lake Park. Maybe 45 minutes or so.

    LOL! too funny... just happened to see the MN post the other day... ;) i've been on another site forever, but started using the mobile tracker..so joined up here....like the little scanner thingie, and how it adds exercise to your cals... helps me figure things out better.. ;) i've take a whole MONTH off of weighing myself because it has not moved much since I got back from canada and i was frustrated.... next weekend is my weigh in, and i;ve been working out and tracking on the foodtracker hardcore, so please pray for good progress! I felt like God kinda put on my heart I was getting obsessed with the numbers and such...so i decided i would keep doing the healthy lifestyle, enjoy my workouts, and let Him do above and beyond what my body wants to do on it's own... leap of faith right now... gotta trust!

    good to see you here though!!! How long have you been on this site? Rhi's not, i don't think anyhow...but my sister is ;)

    Hey, Girl :)
    I've been here since about mid-August.....started on a new path of making some changes after a physical in July when they used the "o" word in reference to my weight . NOOOOOO. Have just been eating better and tracking - a little exercise thrown in at times, but probably not enough. But I've lost somewhere between 10 and 12 lbs, and am not in the obese category anymore, so THAT feels good!

    I made my first visit to Canada recently......and have seen pics of you with your sweety on Facebook :) he's quite adorable!

    Much love and success to you in your healthy-lifestyle changes! Sounds like you've been on the right track for quite some time! Take care, say Hi to Rhi, and God bless,
    Polly
