Hi all I'm Joann, I live in Alberta and work as a public health nurse. I'm married and have a 10 year old daughter 2 year old German shepherd. On top of that I'm taking an online MPA degree. I am part of this group to lose some weight but mostly to stay accountable for my healthy habits and would like to see some movement…

PW - 164.2 CW - 164.6 Thought I would see a decline but not this week. My daughter had her first day of grade 5 today. She was so excited and I love this time of year with all the fresh starts. Summer is coming to an end.

Hi Friends. This week got away on me. It was my Birthday this week and had some time off to do some fun family adventures. PW - 163 CW- 164.2 Not a great week

Hi team August has gotten away on me. I started a new course last week and as much as I'm enjoying it my summer is even busier. My husband and I sold our travel trailer last year and we are now working on converting a cargo trailer into a camper. It's a bigger job than I expected but my husband is very handy. We took it…

@strong_fit_ells - Ellie! That post must have been difficult to share. I'm here cheering you on. @ashleycarole86 hope August slows down for you. You have had some heavy stuff lately. First week of August I've been off track with eating and less exercise. I have a great long weekend camping and really enjoyed getting out.…

@lauren_989 Glad to hear you made it to RI despite the chaos. Hope you get more downtime and sun. Beautiful pictures. @Gidgitgoescrzy - wow fantastic victory getting off your meds. That's the best non-scale victory @MaddawgMadsen - love the pizza bites idea PW 165.2 CW 164.6 Had a busy weekend. We got our trailer ready for…

@wishfuljune. Hope the pup is on the mend. Not fun when more than one is down. @micki48 - love the flow photo. I don't have many flowers around my yard, it's mostly garden vegetables. I've been able to pick some peas and found 1 zucchini that has already been turned into something yummy. I know in the next few months I'll…

Hi team I had a great weekend. The shotgun wedding was lovely and so special. I also got some time to myself on the weekend. My husband and daughter went camping together and had a blast. I was not invited and made myself busy with some odd jobs I tackled and some downtime. Can't believe July is almost over. @lauren_989 I…

@wishfuljune - great loss @Gidgitgoescrzy - don't get too down on yourself, friendships can be difficult. Have a great weekend. I've had a busy week with work but so excited for tonight. I've just found out my cousin is eloping tonight and getting married. It's only myself and another friend who knows. Tonight, they are…

lauren_989 @strong_fit_ells - glad to hear you are feeling better. Nice job losing @strong_fit_ells @Gidgitgoescrzy I've had to disconnect from social media since the newyear and find I'm not using it as a self soothing and detachment tool. I also know my actions are influencing my daughter and keep off it. Find I'm not…

@ashleycarole86 - I am sorry about the loss of your friend. That is really tough - thoughts are with you. @Gidgitgoescrzy - nice work on the activity. I'm not a regular Hello Fresh user but think it would be a great idea for when my creativity gets low in the kitchen. @MaddawgMadsen - fantastic week with the workouts. Have…

@Gidgitgoescrzy wow talk about non scale victory. Your BP is that of a 20 year old. I had a off night yesterday too with going off track. Think my problem is that I'm not eating enough during the day and I just want to eat everything come dinner. @strong_fit_ells wow great activity - Take some rest and hope you feel better…

@micki48 - hope you got on the mat. Just starting is the hardest part somedays @smcewen99 - fantastic loss this week and love the pic @Heathere244 - great loss, I know for me camping can really derail the work you put in. Great motivation for me to keep consistent when I'm out camping soon @YinxFed @strong_fit_ells - nice…

@ashleycarole86 nice loss this week smcewen99 sounds like a decent lunch when you are on the go. I also love the half size me podcast so much good takeaways. @Ruth_2024 that smoothy looks delicious. I'll have to try it soon Happy Friday. The weather will be hot around here and I can't wait for it to finally feel like…

@smcewen99 I have lots of non weight goals - Keep up with my daughter to be able to bike, play do activities. I see my aunts who are all overweight struggle now with their health and that keeps me motivated at times to make healthy decision. @Lyss983 I notice a big difference in my steps when I work from home vs going in…

@gidgitgoescrzy you are such an inspiration to this group. I hear you 2lbs are deceiving when it comes to arms. Keep up the work. @MaddawgMadsen glad to hear the biopsy went well. i have never played pickleball but this is pushing me to find a place that teaches it. Hi all I'm Joann, I live in Alberta and work as a public…

@ashleycarole86 great to hear the dental work went well. Alberta weather is so crazy. @jugar Happy to hear you are back home. @MaddawgMadsen hope you got some pickle ball in this weekend or just recovered. I went with my daughter to see Inside Out 2. It was a great movie and I think it's a great movie that really…

Wow what a game yesterday. I had tickets for the watch party in the Edmonton arena and the energy was amazing along with the crowds outside. Sad to see the Oilers lose but it was quite a run. @MaddawgMadsen so good to hear the owners are listening and asking questions to keep you. I really hope this is progress to some…

PW 165.8 CW 165.2 Had a great weekend. My daughter's birthday party was a success, she made a pottery mug with a group of friends. Father's day was relaxing and what we needed to recharge. My husband has been working more because of the playoff games. Can't wait to get in my garden and see the progress. My zucchini plants…

@micki48 - How amazing you and your granddaughter get to spend time like that together. @MaddawgMadsen - Fantastic victory not turning to alcohol during this stressful time.

Hi Team - I've been distant the last 2 weeks because of school but the intense part is over for a bit. I"m Joann a public health nurse and mom to my soon to be 10 year old daughter. I'm married and taking an online MPA program that has be busy for the next month. May was a tough month and my self care went to the sidelines…

Hi team I'm swamped this week and sadly this group has been pushed to the side. I'll ask to pass on this week and next weeks weigh in. School and work have been heavy and I'm off camping this weekend. Stay well friends.

So much to catch up on. I've been more absent as the next 6 weeks will be full. I'm surprised the scale showed a loss because the long weekend was enjoyed with rich food and a few drinks. Had a good start today with a quick workout. PW - 167.2 CW - 165.2

@adrimango - love the monopoly $ idea. Could be a great motivator. @conleywoods - Congratulations on the job! you've worked so hard for this. I'm all over the place but my activity has been high and overall eating is consistent. I started a new course for my Masters program and getting myself organized for the next 9…

@lauren_989 - great job completing your 5k this weekend @micki48 - doesn't sound like a encouraging place to work right now. @conleywoods - Good luck with the interview - you will nail it. @ddsb1111 - Great to hear your husband is on board with your challenge. Support is so important. @katzservant - nice loss PW 166.8 CW…

@jugar and @EvMakesChanges - Can only imagine all the lovely memories with him. Love that he called himself the oldest teenager, must have been alot of fun. I'm Joann I work fulltime as a Public Health Nurse married with a 9 year old daughter and 1.5 year old German Shephard dog. I'm also slowly making my way through…

@Vio_let23 So nice to meet you. Welcome to the team! @ashleycarole86 hope you can get some rest. Keep up the momentum @EvMakesChanges Hope you were able to get your walk in. Enjoy the time with your dad. @conleywoods the bench looks great. Would look better with you pressing those weights on them @Kali225 I would love the…

@strong_fit_ells great job on cutting the alcohol. @jugar Thank you for all the encouragement and time spent lifting us up. I know the future of this group will be in good hands. @Gidgitgoescrzy I"m saddened to hear of the insensitivity from your friend. Virtual hug and want you to know we acknowledge all the hard work you…
