Hi Mr. Levant, before I was able to lose my extra weight, I had to come up with a strategy that fit into my daily life in which the exercise needed was not an extra activity but automatically became part of my daily routine.

It would take 1 hour and 20 minutes by transit from my work to get home after work so I decided why not just walk home, it took 1 hour and 45 minutes to do this walk. I walked at a slow sustainable pace and it easily became part of my routine so every day at 4:30 pm I would just finish work and go along my way. I did this for the entire summer and I lost 40 pounds. I listened to music and sang along but others have suggested listening to an audio book.

I am not telling you to walk home from work but I am saying find something that easily becomes part of your daily routine without you having to need such strong mental discipline to force it into your daily routine. You need to get healthy, because Canada and the world still needs you.

Interesting bit of history on how the building of the CP was used to support homesteading western Canada, partly to keep the American’s from trying to make the geographic connection between “Seward’s Folly” (Alaska) and the northwestern parts below the 49th parallel. I had always heard that one of the impetuses for Confederation was to join together so that the then large, experienced and unemployed Union Army (after mid-1865) did not get any big ideas and drive north.

Thanks Rebel News for telling the truth .All The Best In The New Year !
