From Quebec, bonjour :-) Airline Pilot

Hi Camilla, I'm from Montreal :-) Summer is here, it's time to be outdoors and not cooped up in a gym. I'm looking for a cycling companion, let me know if that would interest you.

Bonjour! Quebec :-)

Diane, I suggest you search for a friend named rpnjenn. She is on my team and she is a nurse, working various shifts and managing a household with four kids. She is very inspirational and you must have her as a friend :-)

Hi Brannon, I have been using my Garmin Vivofit for a month and it is the perfect device for me at this stage of my new training program. I looked at the Jawbone, the Fitbit, and the Fuelband before going with the Vivofit. PROS - It fits great, it's sleek, it's light and has an adjustable secure band. - The battery last 1…

Tip #3 Make gradual changes

Tip #2 Don't ban any of the not-so-good foods you enjoy, you'll only crave them more. Have them less often and smaller portions.

Welcome Ktrue!

Thanks all ! In the past, I would fill my years with numerous running events and those were motivators for me to remain in optimum form and fitness. Now they're gone due to my injury and I need other motivators to keep me from reaching out for that scrumptious chocolate brownie.

I need friends and support when I'm tempted to go for the tasty evil food. Some days I lack control and will power.

Hi, we seem to have a similar story. I'm new here and hoping this community will support me as well. All the best :)
