@KUMEcyclingteam Love your cake. What talent! LOL about your weigh-in rant.

@jugar and @Beka3695 Lisa @ Cafelelia reached her goal today. CW - 138.8 LTD - 30 lbs which is GOAL! She would like to be moved to cheer squad for December and is thinking about moving over to the maintenance squad after that and checking in with TWNM weekly.

Congratulations, Lisa! I'm so happy for you. Your blue bomber jacket looks just like one that I wore in grade nine when I went to Loretto in Niagara Falls (you're probably the only one who can picture where I mean). It's absolutely fantastic to see you strike a youthful pose with such a delighted expression in your after…

Your smile for today. My grandson learning to do about three things at once here. So cute! https://youtu.be/fTBSBZzfFQo

Great weigh-in!!

You can do it!! Don't be too hard on yourself. Pick yourself up and brush yourself off. Onward!

You can do it! We all need a little break sometimes and Thanksgiving is a time to celebrate. Eating up sometimes is very helpful for the next step down in weight loss. Enjoy your holiday.

Awesome weigh-in!!

April, I'm sorry to hear about your child struggling. My neighbours have the same thing happening with their two teen-aged sons. Just walking the dogs has them stressed. Poor kids.

Awesome, Ella!

It's a tough time and I have faith in you. You've been doing amazingly well under the challenges we're facing. When you're ready to reset, you've got this!

Love your map, Sheryl!

My 5k walk this evening. It was dark so there are shadows and in one pic there are reflections from the signs across the street that I just noticed now that I'm home. I used a Peloton outdoor walk audio class as it's been cold and grey and I needed the motivation. I noticed that Xavy was motivated too. We walked back…

Sheryl, I spend most of my time doing genealogy and it sounds like you’d make a good one too. I’m going to go with Chauncey Garfield got married again since his wife was only about 38 years old when she died. So, your first answer is most likely correct. It would be much more fun if he was 155!

Well, before we actually move on, thank you for writing this, Ashley. I want to give you heaps of validation. Like you, I'm prone to hiding my authentic self if it isn't happy and bright and achieving and all that. I've struggled much of November. Even when I try to be authentic and tell people that I'm struggling, I…

Wow! I love this pic from your 5k walk. It just shows how each one of us has our own landscape and you have a really good flash. I think you woke the cows up. Awesome!

OMG! You are killing the hygge, Lisa. I think I might call CBC to interview you.

This cracked me up, Sheryl.

I love it!

I love this hygge tip, Lisa! I have two reading nooks but have fallen out of the habit of using them. I'm going to focus on one of them and send you a pic when I finally sit myself down to read. I wonder if it will count to read history/genealogy books as they've now become my profession rather than my past time. I now…

Good luck with your 5k walk, Lisa Perhaps you could map your route with Map My Walk, with which I think you just need to take your phone along if you don't have a fitness watch. Another thought is to share your reflections of the walk. What a beautiful quilt! I used to do needlework and, you're right, it did limit…

Great walk and beautiful shot! It reminds me of the Bay of Fundy in Nova Scotia, Canada. I'd be out as often as possible in this scenery.

@minstrelofsarcasm Good thing you went to Lake Erie when you did. This was yesterday.

November has some of us shivering indoors instead of stepping outside for a good walk. Time for a fun and interactive challenge. A virtual team 5k walk!* *5k you say? Alright, alright. It just sounds more athletic. It's only 3.1 miles. Play it your way:* Walk it all at once! * Try a 3-day virtual relay with yourself.…

@sleepymom5 Congratulations! You're number 1. @sleepymom5 and @tryingagain5 Thanks for the words of encouragement. The presentation went well. I've never researched a family tree that was 97% Dutch and had to present it to someone in Amsterdam. She was the best though. All these cousins from the U.S., Canada, and the…

Happy birthday, Lisa! Overall, you are way down and birthdays come first. Your birthday treats soun perfect.

Hello all, Sorry to be MIA. Big family tree presentation tomorrow for a client with relatives calling in from Amsterdam, the U.S., and Canada. I feel some pressure because the family is from The Netherlands and they're going to be on the call. But, I love it.

Wow! That looks like a post-apocalyptic Roman colosseum.
