Hi: My name is Howie. I will have been married to a wonderful gal for 45 years this July. We have 2 married adult children and 4 grandchildren. I am a retired Canadian Armed Forces Sergeant (airforce) after 29 years of service. I have been active for most of my life. We live in the centre of Canada, Winnipeg, Manitoba. For you from the USA, that is just north of North Dakota. We have very cold winters, but beautiful warm summers. We have a slower pace of life than that of the USA and probably less crime. I like it that way. And we do say "A" a lot. About 20 years ago, I started gaining weight and did little about it. It's hard to believe that I actually did some serious running in my younger years. I have been retired from the work force for 7 years now.(I had other careers after the Armed Forces) Three years ago I had a mild heart attack, so I finally decided it is about time to do something about it. I try to walk daily for 40 to 60 minutes at about 3 mph. We all know watching our weight is not easy. For me and my family, our faith in Jesus Christ helps us to be disciplined and have a positive
attitude about life.
Have A GREAT day,
Howie
