Stalwart warrior that's not in your face

Hi.

Mandy here from sunny Phx. Enjoying nice weather and regaining use of body after 6 strokes and massive concussions. Looking purely for... Well, guess nothing in particular

Enjoying using MFP again, glad to be able to move some now, enjoying the freedom to track stuff.

Let's see, Im 35, 5'9, large frame, basically hourglass shape, have always been physically strong and more sedentary due to paralysis these past three years than ever could have imagined! Look forward to dancing, hiking, the beach, everything again.

Things I find hard.... Getting 150 grams of protein a day, sometimes really hard to eat enough calories, feel like I don't quite connect to my actual size, maybe never have. But that's ok. It'll all be ok in the end.

Strokes and all due to physical attack when I was 32, not due to medical issues. Don't have high cholesterol (though I'd like to raise HDL), blood sugar problems or high BP, just burden of excess fat.

Anyway, hope all are really well. Thanks for reading this.

Peace, warmth and exuberant energy,

Mandy
