  • Hi all, Happy New Year's and Happy Friday, Don't have much time, but wanted to let you all know I am still kicking around here, doing what needs to be done. Nothing new to report. I hope you are all doing well. Lana~ congrats on the new job!! ~Saltine~ >:)
  • That is amazing work you have done! I have also been on this journey for a few years and can't seem to find anything that will work for me. I am currently 258 lbs again. I was down to 213 March 2017 then hit a plateau, my dietitian advised me to stop my morning workouts because I was putting too much strain on my body. so…
  • Hi, Happy Friday I hope everyone is doing well, I really have to be better at keeping in touch. Just wanted to pop in quickly to wish everyone (from Canada) a happy Thanksgiving. All is okay with me just trucking along haha Lots of snow was dumped in Winnipeg I have 2 tree that split in half because of the weight of the…
  • Hi all, Just a quick check in, glad to see everyone is doing okay. I am still on the mend, not 100% but getting there. I go back to the dermatologist next week, the skin on my legs are still very tight & still retaining fluids but that will probably take a couple more weeks to clear up. I want to start waking on my…
  • Hi all, Happy Friday, It has been a while since I posted last, I hope everyone is well and would like to say hi to any newcomers. ...boy oh boy have a got a whopper of a story...sorry for how lengthy it is... Well since my last post I became very ill, my skin broke out. I have had psoriasis & eczema since I was about 14…
  • Hi, I hope everyone is well, Just popped in for a quick minute to let everyone know the house inspection went good (the inspector even said he would buy that house :) ) Got up again this morning to do a workout, figured that would help me gain 1st place in my fitbit challenge but had to take a really short lunch break so I…
  • Hi all, Not sure if this will work but this is the house we bought. We have the house inspection tomorrow. :) https://www.royallepage.ca/en/property/manitoba/winnipeg/9-bergman-cres/9982758/mls1915577/

  • Hi all, Thank you for the advice Lynn & thanks to Sara & Suzu for the support. When I got home last night my pups were following me around as they usually do so I whispered "walk" just to see if they even remembered that word. Mocha (male pup) whipped his head around and started wagging his tail like crazy, kind of like he…
  • Hi All, Sorry again, I haven't been around as much as I should. :( I am stuck, lost my umph my desire, my drive... :s I am not sure how to get it back...I have been telling myself every night before I go to bed that I am going to get up in the morning and start working out, I want to, I just don't...I snooze my alarm even…
  • Today like every weekday I had 1 fried egg, 2 slices of Turkey bacon low sodium, 1 toasted english muffin and 1 slice of marble cheese with a banana.
  • Hi All, I hope everyone is doing okay, I haven't looked back at the entries I have missed. Sorry I have been MIA, I kinda fell off the wagon for a while :( but it is time to get back on, my bday is next week & I am not getting any younger so as the saying goes...you have to "Kitten" or get of the pot so to speak! So here…

  • Good morning everyone, Long time no talk, I am hoping things are winding down & I can stop by more often. I hope everyone had a great Christmas & New Year's, mine was good, I got engaged on Christmas eve :) ...possibly having the wedding in Florida next December.

  • Good afternoon, Sorry I didn't add my Fitbit link so people could add me: https://www.fitbit.com/user/6968LK Sara~ Thanks for the suggestion, never thought about seeing a travel agent. Waving to Lana, Tess, Kathryn, and all who follow. ~Saltine~ >:)
  • Happy Monday everyone! Life has been a bit crazy latley. I upped my walking and added a morning walk again, working up to my 5k in the morning again...maybe as I want to also add weight training 2 times a week to start as it gives you a longer burn afterwords. I actually got up to 114,000 steps in one week...I was happy…
  • Hey everyone, I hope everyone's week is getting better as the week progresses! You all know I want a dog. Even my therapist, who is not a dog person, says so. I would really love to have a golden retriever puppy for the fun of it all, but I also realize that it just might be better to adopt a fluffy furry adult creature of…
  • Hi everyone, Sorry I have been MIA for a while, just really busy & have been depressed (guess it is that time of year). My pup Mocha had to go to the vet & we found out he had gastroenteritis, so he had the medication and seems to be better now...this was totally my fault...I like to make homemade dog treats for them & saw…
  • Hi all, I did pretty good on my after work dog walks last week, however this week is not looking too promising. Rained yesterday so we stayed home (I couldn't let my poor little Mocha melt) & dinner with BF's family tonight. Oh well try for tomorrow! :) Dawn~so sorry about the family drama, I have noticed when my Gpa…
  • Thanks for the advice! Last Sept I started walking on my treadmill, started out at 120km for the whole month, come Oct I crushed that, so bumped it up to to 250, then Nov up to 300 Km, then Dec 350 Km (didn't reach that goal just because of xmas & time off my weekly work routine (2 weeks holidays from work)) . I tried…
  • Hi, I also have PCOS, please add me as I am struggling so much to lose weight. I walk 5 times a week for 75 min (6.5 km) on my lunch, been seeing a dietitian & since doing so have gained weight instead of losing it & also walk 30-40 min in the evenings. I burn about 11-1200 calories a day & consume about 12-1400 calories,…
  • I am having issues with my Blaze, I walk the same route everyday at lunch about 75 min 4 miles, but this week my Blaze is logging me in as anywhere from 3.5-4 miles, not sure what is wrong with it. Could it be because the weather is warmer & the sweat is making the miles inaccurate? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

  • Hi all, Just a quick update, I haven't started my AM walks...my bed is just too comfy to get out of...I know that is an excuse as I have gotten up early before & will do it again by the end of this week. Gave pups a hair cut on Saturday, my little Mocha was so good & let me snip anywhere I wanted...Thumbelina on the other…
