Failure to Plan is to Plan for Failure!

One of the crucial elements of successful weight loss is Preparation, preparation, preparation!
Preparation : Packing my bags for business traveling and planning ahead to bring my breakfast. It saved me form having to eat at the restaurant where you never know if they truly prepared your food according to your specifications, AND it gave me [...]

Lucky Week 7 !
Posted on June 26, 2008 by nancyvienneau
We all gathered at Nubody’s last night for our bootcamp & weigh-in. When Leon warned us about fatigue catching up to us, we all thought that it would never come due to the sheer excitement and crazyness of this progam. Last night, almost everyone looked cranky and grumpy and tired. We even heard our trainer [...]

Playing in the Dirt
Posted on June 24, 2008 by nancyvienneau
Last night was our 7th weekly Smartest Loser Challenge… already!? Steph and I met Yvette and Christine at the Midland parking lots and brought our suppers and had a nice picnic together. Since we all live in Dieppe, we decided to only take one car and travelled together to the Moncton Stone Crusher Site. I was [...]

Well they weren’t short shorts, but our trainer Andre was wearing shorts Friday night. Since I am a married woman, that’s all I’ll say about that! Although I have to say that I’m pretty convinced that our great performance Friday was attributable to the shorts! haha ;)
So we all met at Centennial Park on Friday [...]

Already at the 6 week mark!!
Posted on June 19, 2008 by nancyvienneau

Expanding Our Minds and Shrinking Our Butts
Posted on June 18, 2008 by nancyvienneau
Last night we attended our second psychology seminar, led by Christine. Those seminars take place at U de M’s CEPS. The classroom is amphitheatre style, and about 7 rows deep. On these rows are swiveling chairs that are actually attached to the long tables/rows. (Think fast food restaurant chairs that are attached to tables…) I used [...]

Pulling an 18 wheeler for 25 feet? 10-4!
Posted on June 17, 2008 by nancyvienneau
First of all, I have to set the mood. I currently have a song stuck in my head, because I’m thinking about this challenge. I must inflict you all with the song, so that you can enjoy the complimentary free music (in your head) that goes with this entry. My daddy is a long-haul trucker and [...]

Friday evening, the blue team and the trainers met at Moncton’s Centennial Park for another group workout. Neil told us that we would go for a little walk for a warm up. MMMmmkay. That’s different. Turns out that the warm up was walking up to the start of one of the trails. Then he turned [...]
