    @misplacedmama Thanks. I laugh a lot. I should have a six pack from all the laughing I've done throughout my life, but if I do, it's hidden to me. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    @Spotteddingo That could not have been easy to share, and I consider it a privilege to be one of the ones you shared it with. Having unhealthy relationships with food can very much lead to a real illness, and we must continue to talk about it to bring more awareness of it. I'm sure your mom was a real gem (most moms are), and she would be proud of you for committing to eating healthier and being healthier.

    @KeriA Happy birthday!!! Hope you had a wonderful day!

    For chair yoga, I started with a book called Sit n Fit Chair Yoga. It's very basic and actually a very thin book. I know some of the reviews of the book criticized it for being so short. I bought it anyway since it still sounded like a good place to start and for me, it was. I've since seen some of the exercises in the book in youtube videos and articles on yoga. I then watched a few youtube videos to add more exercises and I have a 2nd book that's much more comprehensive and includes a section on chair yoga routines based on goals you want to achieve through the practice. I can't recall the name of that one right now. I'll try to remember to look it up. I haven't yet found a youtube video that I love. I know I read about some here on MFP that people really liked but I didn't check into them at the time. If anyone has any chair yoga videos they like, please share. Thanks!

    @Arralethe I love BodyPump! Are you doing it at a gym, or at home on demand?

    On demand at home - I do Bodybalance too. I'm too out of shape for Attack, but I'm working up to it :)

    Please can I join you, I'm back at the beginning again after losing a good amount of weight then thinking I could maintain without logging my foods or weighing myself regularly so in the last 2 years I've regained all the weight I lost. Today I'm starting again and hoping to lose weight and keep it off this time.
    Height 5ft 3ins
    Current weight 220lbs (08.03.21)
