Lots of Walking in Fort Kent

I didn’t think that I would be getting enough activity during my visit with Skye and Jonas last week, but I certainly did. We walked everywhere we needed/wanted to go. To the libraries, stores and Subway, and even to Al’s for lunch one day. We walked a good 3 or 4 miles each day, maybe more. I did not keep track as I usually do. Not bad, though.

Other than that, there was not a lot of activity. I totally treated myself and Skye. We had french fries and Sundaes at McDonalds, and I had one of their Big Breakfast meals. At Al’s, I had a burger, some breadsticks with cheese and some fries and mozzarella sticks. We had cake one evening because it was Skye’s birthday. 6 small mudslides probably weren’t the best idea nutrition wise.

Jonas made us a wonderful tasting meal of barbecue ribs, mashed potato, green beans and carrots, with which I had a tall glass of milk. I rarely drink milk. And he made me toast with homemade gooseberry-blueberry jam, as well as scrambled eggs, for breakfast one day.

I took Skye to lunch one day at Subway. I had a 6 inch on wheat: Provolone cheese, turkey, lettuce, spinach and cucumber. I had a soda, a cookie and a small bag of Sun Chips as well.

All-in-all, it could have been worse fitness wise.

Thanks for your publish. My spouse and i have often observed that almost all people are desirous to lose weight simply because they wish to show up slim and also attractive. Nevertheless, they do not generally realize that there are many benefits just for losing weight additionally. Doctors declare that over weight people are afflicted by a variety of illnesses that can be directly attributed to their particular excess weight. The great thing is that people who definitely are overweight plus suffering from different diseases can help to eliminate the severity of their particular illnesses by means of losing weight. You possibly can see a steady but identifiable improvement with health as soon as even a small amount of weight loss is obtained.

Me and This Journal

Good day all! My name is Shannon Buck. I hail from a small town in Maine, where I am blessed to have the opportunity to work from home as a freelance writer. I am mom to Skye and Zowie, my wonderfully supportive daughters.



I am not happy with my appearance. I want to get back into at least a large.


When I first started losing weight, I weighed in at 279 pounds and wore a size 3x. I am now at a size 2x and, while I have accomplished much, I have gone backwards somewhat. Not too badly, as I am still wearing a size 2x, along with with some 1x.


This blog is an effort to help keep me on track with my fitness goals. My main goal is not necessarily weight-loss, but overall fitness, nutrition and health. I want to not only look better, but feel better as well.


Join me while I continue with my journey.


Warmest Wishes and Brightest Blessings,


Shannon L. Buck
