Hi Donna... :)
A friend was talking about the horrors someone had gone through having had their stomach stapled and it ended up with me telling her about you and your journey and she was very impressed with your stick-to-itivness...
I usually am just lurking these days.......I don't feel I have the right words or the expertise to make too many comments, but I guess I should chime in as an encourager from time to time. for some reason i just had to join in here. some capitals and some not...i typed elsewhere and copied it...
Hi Amni and 'my fellow Canadians'. I'm from Burlington (near Toronto).

We have had our computer disconnected for a few days, so I just saw this post this morning :-). You are always so warm and friendly and were one of those who welcomed me after my first post and I just have to add my best wishes too!
So.....a belated...
I seem to do this a lot....so frustrating too. I did a nice post with a message to each one and now I lost it :-(.
You'll just have to trust me....I said great encouraging things to each of you ;-).
I am at 153 now....want to get to 140 but will be very pleased when I get below 150!
Have a...
Happy Birthday from Canada too! http://www.smilies-world.de/Smilies/Smilies_klein_1/torte.gif[/img]
You were one of the first people to 'talk' to me here and have been a great encouragement :D. I really got going on keeping a food journal because of you. We are about the same age (I'm about a...
When I read your post you got up my curiousity going and I went and counted mine.
WOW :-wow I have 88 and 17 of those are Cathe....it's like underwear......sort of creeps up on you. :-) I too used to think if you had 100 plus you were kind of overdoing it, but I'll be there soon I guess...
Do you hear a sigh coming from me too? ;-)
I haven't had a TTOM since June but here I am with it again today....ain't menopause wonderful! I weighed myself before I started and was wondering what was happening when I saw a few #s gained. I did eat some Halloween chocolate but not that much...
So nice to see pictures of both of you!
Donna.....your journey to fitness has brought you far....you look great! :D So nice to be able to put a face to your name.
Connie....you have put in a lot of hard work and time too to look like you do! :D Good for you and thanks for posting these...
Hi Kelly......I'm trying to do more weights out of choice to see what happens....not cutting out cardio entirely but lowering a bit.
I 'feel' (along with Donna) that the cardio is the weight loss 'thing'. I know it isn't true but it is hard to let go of.
Glad to hear you are well and...
I nearly didn't post this week because I don't have time to say something to everyone but I did read all the posts and want to encourage all of us to keep on trucking! :-) I guess I'll quit going on about my posting etiquette and just post. ;-)
I did go down another #. I seem to be at 154 now...
You really are something, Donna! :D
I feel like I know you.....you're so honest about yourself and you're hard working and such an encouragement to others! I think your kids will see how you have changed during your weight loss/fitness journey and will have picked up on a lot of that.
I am...
Hi Anna :-)......Yes I workout with Cathe. I just did Circuit Max today.....using lots of modifications but I can get all the way through it. I can't do a lot of high impact because it starts to hurt my knees.
I really like doing my weights with Cathe and I have a fair number of them......but...
I haven't posted in ages because I was away for a month and then just got kind of busy and out of the habit of posting.
Congratulations on the 2# Kay...very nice to seen drops like that! Hope you get adjusted to the new house soon and start to wake up happier. :-)
I'm not weighing this morning...
