@lauren_989 and @MaddawgMadsen awesome work - keep it up Have to say with it getting dark by 4:30 here it's tough to keep up the energy for anything after work but my dog loves the cold and we make an effort to check out different off leash parks around the city. Plus the dog stays clean now that we have some snow and it's…

@Gidgitgoescrzy love shoe shopping and reminds me I should replace my treadmill shoes. PW 165.2 CW 166.0 Had a few too many goodies and rinks this week. Christmas is too far away for me to be enjoying it yet. I got my workout in this morning and have my lunch already made. Want to make this week a good one. My traditions…

My name is Joann, I work full time as a Public Health nurse from Alberta and also have a 1 year old German Shephard and a 9 year old daughter with my husband. This past month has been so much better than the previous, I've been able to keep consistency with my diet and not throw in the towel with a small set back. Goals…

@Gidgitgoescrzy gosh hope all goes well with your back. Also nice loss this week. @jugar - You have snow already? We've had a decent fall so far and the snow hasn't settled in yet, but time is ticking. Hunting season should be over soon. My days have been flying by. I had an interview for a new job and I feel like it went…

@micki48 - oh my - those kitten cuddles are so cute. I agree right now I'm not pushing myself to have all my health goals in alignment with this season. I'm not going to throw in the towel but I want to be kind to myself and also know that I can make changes in the future. @ashleycarole86 and Brad - Hope you are on the…

PW - 166.4 CW - 166.4 Love this topic just as we start the holiday season. I agree @MaddawgMadsen drinking is a trigger for me with the F-it mentality and something I know I need to be conscious about in the next few months.

@micki48 Husbands are not good a good judge of anything related to looks or our relationship with weight. We are here for you and there's so much more to you than your weight and looks. As I look back on pictures I know what my weight was and how I felt in my body at that time. We are all on a journey and this may be the…

Wow can't believe it's November My name is Joann, I work full time as a Public Health nurse from Alberta and also have a 1 year old German Shephard and a 9 year old daughter with my husband.

@conleywoods nice loss this week - how's WW going? @jugar have a safe trip back PW 167.6 CW 167.2 Small loss but I"ll take it considering I enjoyed myself on the weekend by making a delicious coconut almond sourdough bread that was amazing. It's sitting on the counter but won't get touched today. Enjoying my coffee in a…

@eggfreak Love the soup idea. I need to look at adding soup now that it's cooler. Happy to hear you are at peace with your dad's passing. @KellyBgetsfit you can do it this week. I needed some extra sleep last night. I changed my duvet and I've been so hot in the middle of the night- not sure if I'm starting to hit hormone…

PW 167.6 CW 167.6 I had a great Canadian Thanksgiving with all the turkey and stuffing and pie for 2 days but after that got out for a long walk with the dog and back to regular eating and working out. Has anyone moved with kids? It's been something my husband and I have causally talking about and getting out of the city…
-
@veronica1359 great loss this week @ashleycarole86 what a fantastic way to make memories with your mom. Amazing she could still participate in most things scooting around. @IDebraK prepping for the winter sounds like a lot of work but so satisfying being with all those animals. @MaddawgMadsen Proud of you not partaking and…
-
@jugar - wow hat's off to you for the work in providing a well deserved family a safe place to live. That story gave me chills. @eggfreak - so sorry for your loss. Would have been easy to finish the ice cream knowing you shared it with him. grief is a mixed-up emotion and not a straightforward process. @bowens1973 and…
-
@KellyBgetsfit and @CarolAnnM2 great loss this week Hump day is here but I'm keeping my motivation up. Did a tough Peloton class before work and the weather is holding up to get out for a walk with the dog later on today. Anyone else celebrating Canadian Thanksgiving this weekend? For me it's hit or miss with my family and…

@conleywoods love this idea ✅ Why are you on this journey? What pushed you to start? I have many extended family members who grossly obese and I've always told myself that I don't want to follow the family norms. Now that I'm in my 40's I can see how taking control of my health will give me a fuller life with my family and…

My name is Joann and we have entered my favourite season of the year. I love this time of year now that school is back into a routine and the weather a little cooler but still pulling veggies out of the garden. I'm married and work full time as a Public Health nurse from Alberta. We have a 1 year old German Shephard and a…

@ashleycarole86 great loss this week I am keeping my momentum to green this week up. Had a good workout before work and have been making all my meals at home - love all the produce I"m getting from the garden. Weekend is so close.
-
@MaddawgMadsen thoughts are with you at this time and thanks for sharing. @micki48 love your attitude. So much of life is mindset and how you control what you can control . PW 169.2 CW 171 It's all about mindset. I've been doing some great things and have so much more energy. Not going to let this week bring me down.

PW - 169.8 CW - 167.8 I love this time of year - the weather is amazing and there is so many yummy produce coming up from the garden. I made salsa this weekend with onions and tomato's from the garden - you just can't compare store bought to homemade. I had a great weekend, we had an outdoor art festival in a nearby park…

Hi All PW 170.0 CW 168.8 My name is Joann and I'm so glad it's September. August was a whirl wind and my whole routine was thrown off which makes September even more exciting. I love this time of year with the excitement of back to school and the routine that comes with it. I'm married and work full time as a Public Health…

@lauren_989 - My mantra is that I tell myself 'my future self will thank me'. If it's getting a workout in or not snacking at night so I can get a good sleep, I know I'm doing it for something greater than what I want now.
-
PW 168.2 CW 170.0 I've been MIA here the last month and I can now take a deep breath with summer almost behind me. I had a fantastic summer. We had a Japanese student stay with us for the month of August, and as much fun as it was, I didn't realize how much work it would be nor how much it would throw my routines off. Now…
-
So happy to hear of you daughters visit @jugar @conleywoods thoughts are with you and your family PW 170 CW 168.2 Doing some right things that is headed in the right direction. Can't believe it's the end of August. It is almost feeling like fall here
