    4th game in a row my pervy old guy "fan" showed up to. We played like crap and had no luck at all. I took the long way off the rink to avoid my "fan".

    Why are people creepy?????

    Good morning ! I turned 49 Saturday and competed in my first ever CrossFit competition. I have always been heavy and definitely not athletic. April 2016 I began my weight loss journey with cardio and lifting. Sept 2018 I joined a CrossFit box that also focuses on Olympic lifts and welcomed the change. I will never compete again, but I can officially say I am an athlete for the first time in my life. Message here - never give up, you got this !

    Happy belated birthday and congratulations on your achievement ..

    @AliNouveau - there is a documentary on CBC (tomorrow) about a group of women ages 40+ to 70+ that are figure skaters and are headed to the Worlds! It is called "To the Worlds". I thought of you and your friends immediately. :)

    I'm sorry you have to do things like that just to avoid creepy people. You may need to get the facilities manager to speak to him.

    i'm listening to an interview with them on the radio

    i competed at the "worlds" in 2014. It's a fun competition in a gorgeous area of Germany. People are crazy serious about the competition there. I have some fun stories from that competition. haha

    I think a few have noticed his "attention". I just hope he doesn't find out I am often on the skating rink and stalks me there.

    Well, I can always come up there with a few "associates" and take him for a little drive in the country if you'd like :)

    Good Morning Everyone! Was doing so great and somehow got into a slump! Started around November and I can't seem to get back into the swing of things. I want to...
    Was down almost 50 pounds and have put about 7 back on. Seems like I am either starving or not hungry. Can't seem to find the middle. I have to say, I am not as "strict" as before. I need to get that drive back! I noticed that some "bad" habits are slowly making their way back and I have to stop them before they take over! Why is it so hard to get back into the healthy mode once you have got on that slippery slope?
    I am still exercising and get on MFP everyday and log my food, but not as good as before. Sometimes, I log all day sometimes, I don't log it all. I just want that DRIVE back! I know it has to come from me....but darn it! It's being so hard!

    It's never too late. It's also like gaining a family. You get enveloped into the skating family and it's great. Ya it can be carry at times but I have such a great group of friends from the skating world.

    And to be honest nothing beats the high you get from performing and competing at competitions. Well for me at least

    No real advice, my friend, other than keep plugging along! You lost 50 and that's a great accomplishment -- so keep chipping away at that "extra 7", and take it one day at a time!
