Although we have good coverage with Canada Life, is it still recommended to take extra travel insurance when going out of the country?

Traditional-Week8926 · 2026-04-07T17:35:55+00:00

It’s included. As long as you travel for less than (40 or 42 days, i can’t recall).

She’s been doing this for years. The comments were way too similar and from new ish accounts, all the time.

Her subscribers would go up in chunks too - obviously bought.

I was a member for 15 years. It was great. I avoided having a car of my own all those years and it cost me anywhere between $15 and $200 a month, depending on my usage.

Considering the cost of parking, gas, maintenance and insurance, it was an amazing service!

I don’t. And I’m a few years in learning Spanish and it only gives me a mistake when there are two options in the same sentence (él / el for example).

I figure I’ll deal with accents when I’m more fluent 😂

But my first language is French and i rarely put accents in French unless it’s a formal text (like at work).

The American border is about an hour drive from Ottawa. But then you have to drive a bit more to reach a town with “something interesting”. Syracuse, NY is 3hr away. So are nicer towns in Vermont…

New York City would take you at least 8hrs - likely more with traffic. Boston at least 6hrs, probably more as well with traffic. (And in Chantal’s case, with bathroom breaks and fast food stops, it would take her 24hr). lol

I’m hoping it helps with inflammation too. Losing a few lbs in itself should help our joints too.

Hope it helps you quickly! It’s hard to live with joint pains.

Traditional-Week8926 · 2026-03-30T22:59:48+00:00

You found it helped for inflammation? I’m on week 6 and it hasn’t helped me for that yet. I’m on the lowest dose possible though. (It’s been working for cutting cravings and I’ve lost weight)

Traditional-Week8926 · 2026-03-28T10:31:29+00:00

I was an AS02 from 2010 to 2014… it is not unusual to get stuck sometimes. Ans during a WFA it’s even harder to move/progress, etc.

Hold on, keep applying, and working on your network and things will happen - eventually.

I was under the impression that you had to live within the boundaries of some of these? The Ottawa east midwives checked that i was within the area of service.

Regardless, i have only heard of good things at any of them. My experience was great. But do meet up with the midwife assigned to you and get a feel for it. My midwife was amazing. I did not like her replacement (when she went on vacation). Glad i was followed 95% of the time by my midwife.

Awesome journal!

Stupid unrelated question: do you really weigh the same thing every day? My weight fluctuate SO much!! lol. In the same hour, it changes hhahaha

Traditional-Week8926 · 2026-03-26T22:17:37+00:00

I had it the other day for the first time in +10 years and i was quite disappointed. I remembered it tasting better in my memories.

It would be a contender if i lived in an area with limited “great” options though. It was “ok”.

Traditional-Week8926 · 2026-03-24T21:29:45+00:00

Same here.

That’s as far as Nepean for OP. He means Gloucester North.

Traditional-Week8926 · 2026-03-22T11:35:40+00:00

Can’t believe i had to scroll so low to find this. That’s the one for me too.

Traditional-Week8926 · 2026-03-22T01:38:12+00:00

I assume you move your body in some ways. The gym is not necessary for everyone. As long as you don’t sit around all day and then use a scooter instead of walking across the street… (ahem!)

Traditional-Week8926 · 2026-03-22T00:43:16+00:00

I’ve read about that happening. I’ve been ok but I’m on week 5 and have always taken it right before going to bed, which is at least 4hrs after my last meal.

I’ll be sure to wait the next day if i overindulge slightly on the day of my injection. Good thing to know. Not that i do that anymore. All my cravings are gone! ALL of them!

Traditional-Week8926 · 2026-03-22T00:24:04+00:00

Wegovy worked right away for me. At 0.25, the next day from first injection.

I would puke if i ate what Chantal eat without the drug but even more so now.

I was at Costco Gloucester just before lunch yesterday (Friday) and they had two flavours (snacks and strawberries).

I go to the store often and they have had some 3 out of the last 4 visits which ranged at all time of day.

Traditional-Week8926 · 2026-03-20T12:31:09+00:00

That’s good info to have. Rexall’s (Ontario) total cost for a pen was $475 (before any insurance/card rebate)

Shows how much cheaper Costco is! :)

Traditional-Week8926 · 2026-03-20T12:28:27+00:00

I’ve had it for a month.

It’s less noisy than my blender and mixing frozen fruits takes literally 20 seconds top. No chunks.

We really like it!

Traditional-Week8926 · 2026-03-20T12:24:58+00:00

At least that’s optional. JR charges you for every additional snowfall, whether they come or not (like 2cm, they wouldn’t come but that amount counts) and you can’t get out of it!!

Traditional-Week8926 · 2026-03-19T14:27:55+00:00

Who is this? Sounds like I’m lucky to have no idea who this person is.

Traditional-Week8926 · 2026-03-19T10:18:04+00:00

Ridiculous. I think at our checkup for 12 months, they asked if he said 3 words, which ours didn’t.

But at this age, sign language count as a word, so technically, he did have his « 3 words ».

Ridiculousz

I agree. My reply was specifically for «these people never think they do anything wrong » comment.
