Yeah its pretty chilly here today. Was so nice and mild up till a week or so ago and then winter came crashing down hard. Oh well, it is that time of year.

I'm always cold, don't ask me why (I don't even know lol) but I am! I come into work in an office and I keep my jacket on 3/4 of the day whereas everyone else is fine.

I am the opposite, my wife calls me a furnace. I could literally sleep with the windows open all year long and love it. The only time I get cold is in the morning and then its only a slight chill from my body temp going down or if my feet get wet/cold

Same here. Every year when the cool weather gets here I have the maintenance guys close the vents in my office so I get no heat. Otherwise I will be sweating all winter long. We keep the office at 70-72 which is way warm for me, but everyone else has little space heaters under their desks because they're cold. I don't get it. I love it when I come in and my office is cold.

I don't even own a proper winter coat.


Also; HNY Canucks.

I ate a lot over the holidays so i'm probably over the 1000 mark by now lol

[rebeckyt]

Happy New Year Everyone!! All this talk about cold weather is depressing! I'm preparing to freeze my a$$ off as soon as I get back to McMurray tonight. Spoiled with warmth over the holidays :P

[LithiuM23]

Another day, another dollar. Hope everyones day is going well!

[Fawnl]

I just have to ask, anyone make poutine rapée for Christmas?

[melissalifts]

Just moved to Calgary from Hawaii a couple months ago. Wanted to say HI!

[sglgirl]

Morning everyone...I ate a lot over the holidays so i'm probably over the 1000 mark by now lol

Fortunately it was only my Mom and I for the holidays so it was not a huge dinner or indulgence. I did have one night, last Sunday to be exact, where I could not keep my hands away from my friend's homemade bailey's fudge (to which I am not suppose to be eating...dairy) but that was my biggest calorie day.

Where was it you went for the holidays?

It was just okay....

How is the meal plan and stuff going? Am I gonna see you on stage for the Atlantics?

I just have to ask, anyone make poutine rapée for Christmas?

It contains the word poutine so I would not even look at it. But honestly I am not sure what it is other than maybe poutine pie?

Is this welcome to Canada? Are you originally from Hawaii?

Hey sexy lady, we miss you.

All the best for 2013!

[Beccag23]

Merry Christmas and happy new year everyone! ... Totally late to the party as usual!

Been working a ton of overtime to start saving up for a few trips and a new suit for may. Funny how not paying for prep anymore doesn't seem to leave a couple grand extra in my bank account.

Poutine Rapee is a French Canadian thing. East coast. It's actually potato and salt pork... no fries and gravy seen this christmas.

Hi guise!

[Fawnl]

Oh, probably! I honestly grew up just calling them poutines. I had never heard the rapee part until very recently

[defyant]

Hey my Canadian brothers

Does anyone know of any cheap gyms or fitness places in BRAMPTON?

LA Fitness and the city gyms are too expensive for me atm. What about goodlife?

[sglgirl]

drum roll please.....

and the dumba$$ award of the day goes to me! a shot of sea salt first thing in the morning with coffee on an empty stomach will ensure that your tummy is completely empty before fasted cardio

So ... you effectively replaced your sugar with sea salt?

That's ... oh god I can't even imagine

I only have a quarter of a teaspoon a day, 500mg and any other if it is in the food I eat...currently I have no condiments other than olive oil on a meal and now of course the little bit of salt.
