It is one of those places that you are START/ FINISH in 30 minutes! 90% of the time I have to do it without my leg because of all the sweat, it just falls off!! Hard work pays off in the long run! I am down a…
  • Hello! I am also a Fatty Liver person! Too much medications, stress over the past number of years (2014 I had a leg amputated because of a rare bone tumor) and the lack of regular good exercise has created weight gain. My liver specialists has told me that I need to lose 15lbs by the end of September and pray that my…
  • YESTERDAY saw my 2 Specialists (oncologist and liver). Blood work for the Oncologist was GREAT! Blood work for my liver guy - was not great.

  • I hear you about wheelchairs and carpet!! WHY??? I live in a great 2 bdrm apartment that is wheelchair friendly but it would be too small for 2 chairs. Only the bathrooms are not exactly wheelchair friendly which is okay for me since I can take 2 hops from the door to the toilet and shower....plus usually in the bedroom, I…
  • Sorry to hear about your Mother. I come from a F-d up family as well! I was informed 10 days after my mother died from the flu. Who told me was one of my nieces because she thought it was really mean that I wasn't being told. To make a long story short, my brother and I were officially disowned from the family - letter…
  • I am with DoTerra Essential Oils! I love the oils! They got me off a whole lot of medications!
  • Sunkist - those oil charts are interesting and I saved them. My BFF sells oils and I have a bunch but needed a quick reference. Also, regarding your retirement - would it be possible for you to keep volunteering as a police/community liaison if you wished to? That is, of course, if you are leaving on what you feel are good…
  • Marcekynh there are a number of essential oils that can be used for depression and anxiety. The first step is aroma...what scent/smell brings a calmness, balance to your loved one. then it is a matter of finding what works....diffusing and applying the right oil can help. My hubby suffers from PTSD and Anxiety (his go-to…
  • it has been a rather busy week already! I am prepping for a 2 hour workshop about Essential Oils that will take place on Saturday. Work has been somewhat busy (police work, so there somewhat busy and insane) and still wrestling with what date I am picking for my retirement and having to make all those phone calls to let…

  • MARY from ARIZONA - so true but if your diet is not containing this much fat to begin with....my stomach was COMPLAINING big time! I understand about the fat and that it is good to have in your diet but this was a bit of an overload on my gut.
  • Tuesday. Had an awesome weekend although totally bombed on the food because the only food offered was all deliciously deep fried (sausages,bacon, hashbrowns) and the eggs were laden in grease! The other meals were also tasty but fatty....so no amount of cross country skiing would burn off those delicious calories!! Yes, I…
  • Hey Donna! I am in Winnipeg as well! Live off of Henderson Hwy! We should meet up!
  • WENDY / EXERMOM : when I am at the gym I can pretty much do everything that I use to. I was doing one legged squats until I hurt my only knee. I could do a 1 leg machine squat with about 80lbs. but now I pretty much skip leg day. Since I have been either crutching or wheeling for the past 6 years...I have incredible…
  • I think I like this group! :-) My meal plans have been going well this week. My hubby and I maintain separate houses, which is a little weird but he has anxieties that causes stress on the marriage so it was best that we live for awhile under 2 roofs. I love the man and I understand his anxieties so we make it work. We are…
  • Wendy - I try to swim 2000m three times a week and it is all arms becuase my only knee is a slightly bum knee at the moment. The hubby is an ex-olympian (Montreal summer games) for swimming so I have the perfect coach! I haven't been able to get into the gym because ever time I do...I pick up a bug. I love Hot Yoga and try…
