To Quote Aerosmith: "I'm BAAAACK in the saddle again..."
So, it's been approximately 6 weeks since I posted on here or went to the gym. At first, I didn't feel too badly about not going to the gym since I spent about 3 weeks doing a lot (and I do mean A LOT) of time outdoors doing both work & recreational activities including: - Tearing down a 10' x 20' deck piece by piece with…

Isagenix...thoughts anyone?
Hey Folks... One of my Facebook friends has recently started the Isagenix program and keeps going on and on and on about how wonderful it is. I've done a little bit of reading on it and, in my opinion, it seems to strike me as a bit of a "pyramid scheme". Anyone? Just curious :smile: Jeff @ YEG

26 POUNDS!!! YESSSSSSSS!!!

Hey Kids...I thought I'd share this thought I had tonight... Other than the inches coming off the tape measure & the numbers on the scale getting lower, sometimes it's hard to notice any results of any kind. I mean I do notice some things (my shirts & pants feel looser, I see some "definition" in my body, I can squeeze…

You Bet Your A** I'm Counting It!
They don't call it "The Great White North" for nothing! Last night/early this morning, here in Edmonton, we got hit with a wicked little blast of winter. I share a driveway with my neighbour (kind of a "pie-shaped" driveway) and I discovered that if the wind is coming from the right direction, it dumps all the snow in my…

Housework & Yardwork?
Hey Kids (I call everyone "Kids"...ha ha!)... Just a quick question: who here counts housework and yardwork as exercise? And if you do, how do you calculate the calories you burn? I'm just curious because as soon as I finish up with my flight-simming (don't ask...yes - I'm a total geek...ha ha!) I'm heading outside to…

7 Pounds In One Week? Wow...
Alright...it's one of 3 things: 1) The scale at the gym was wrong last week when I weighed in 2) The scale at the gym was wrong THIS week when I weighed in or 3) Changing your eating and exercise habits really can have a HUGE effect! I'm going to go with #3! Now, before everyone jumps all over me for losing an unhealthy…
