Good afternoon
With the lovely weather, I have been a bit busier than I have been. Just want to be outside in the sunshine, getting some fresh air.
Was to see the cardiologist this morning and he is very very proud of me (it has been 6 months since I saw him last). He said he has no reason to see me again, my choloesterol is great now and to keep up the fantastic work. I walked out of his office feeling very good about myself. I am his first patient that he has had, that is is on WW and he took down all info and he is recommending the program to his patients that need to lose weight. He is very impressed with it.
Well I did it. Went out on the weekend and bought a used set of golf clubs. Yes I am going to learn to golf! Now that is something I would not have even thought about 1 1/2 years ago. Still not sure how it work with my knees the way they are, but hey, I am not out to join the LPGA or anything, just some good exercise and fun. A friend is going to take a few lessons with me then we'll be hitting the links!
Tomorrow is WI and am sure hoping for a loss this week. The past month has been a bit of struggle, not program wise, but just the fact the my body doesn't seem to want to let go of any poundage! I have had a loss (1.6 over the past 4 weeks) but that is not as near as good as it has been. But I do know I am doing everything right and just need to keep plugging away at it.
Today I completed 10.3 km on my ex. bike and that puts me 604.7 km into my Trek Across Canada. It started out with quite few people doing it as well on the WW message boards but I am alone now. They gave up! It may take me many years to complete it but I determined to do it.
My Journey to a Thinner, Healthier Me
Welcome to my Blog. I hope you enjoy reading along as my journey goes along, my rants and raves, my successes and my disappointments.
About Me
- tweetybrrd
- I was born June 18th, 1961 on Father's Day to Earl & Martha Sibbald. Was raised in the township of Wainfleet where my parents still live in the house my father built. I have 1 younger brother. I graduated Port Colborne High School in 1978 and went on to Sheridan college where I studied animated cartooning. Do to major problem with my knees and many surgeries, I never completed my college education at Sheridan. I took piano lessons when I was younger and even won a Gold Medal in the Niagara Falls Kawanis Music Festival. I went on to learn how to play many instruments including, baritone sax, mandolin, acoustic and electric guitar, bass guitar and bit of the banjo. I went on the road with a band from Oshawa for 3 years, playing all over Ontario before moving back to Niagara, living in Welland and played bass guitar in a few local bands for about 15 years. I Love to draw & paint. I am self taught in crocheting and I love all kinds of crafty things to do.
