WORKOUT
@kymarai q
. I wouldn't say that. I was quite to very active (sports) from late teens till late 30s/early 40 so it kind fo seems like second nature to me. Since some minor health issues at 41 ish (acute, intense, but to be temporary, but seemed to have taken a toll), and then again since around 55ish (food issues: can't jog anymore), I'm less active.uestion....anyone else want to cry when they are only halfway through starting a workout?
I still like to walk. I don't push myself too much. I have to push myself to get my heart rate up for 20 minutes. My natural tendency would be to amble, stroll, much of the time when walking, To pedal gently on stationary bike and so on. Sometimes walking I go faster naturally, but not really fast usually (unless I'm late or something). I figure walking at a moderate or leisurely pace and enjoying it is better than forcing myself to go faster and not do it because I don't enjoy it. I'm aiming at present to do 20 min at high Hr on stationary bike 3x a week. I find it boring so watch a show or listen to podcast during. sometimes I forget and have to extend 5 minutes because I had been going slow on the bike.
I bet your walking lifting etc at work DO keep you in good shape.
when very young (a teen) I was surely in good shape but when we would go skiing for about 5 days year, or whatever, we would be all sore. We'd ski from morning to evening as much as possible to make good use of the time opportunity, ski ticket ect, as much as possible, and using unused muscles really made us all sore regardless of our health otherwise...
Maybe you could do a modified version so as not to want to cry! I used to go to yoga classes and there were always modified versions of poses for those for whom it was too hard. On the very rare times I've been to sports classes in past years I'm among the oldest ! the teachers are not always topnotch so I just adjust, without complex, according to my ability, so I feel okay. hopefully they don't mind too much!1 -

HEATHER you seem really fit! 2.15h of sport per day at 72 is top-notch !
Your cruise - I'd be surprised if there is not an option these days. Bad customer service otherswise. A registered letter is sometimes beneficial if the friendly approach doesn't work.
you could have a doctor's note that says due to X and the pandemic situation he or she recommends postponing. It would be a big liability for them if a customer then didn't cancel/postone (which you will!) and then were seriously under the weather due to OMICRON/DELTA...
MACHKA
Not enough time to exercise?
168 hours in a week
- 56 hours for sleep (7 days * 8 hours) OKAy!
- 40 hours for work (5 days * 8 hours) (plus transport)
- 10.5 hours for exercise (the recommended amount of 90 minutes a day * 7 days) okay!
= 61.5 hours for ... whatever you want. 🙂
+ running household (shopping, cleaning, bills, admin stuff, etc, etc)
But there needs to be some time in there for "whatever you want" I don't have 61.5 hours of it though! though I think it's great for those who do! I'm all for it! I HAVE in my youth had some times like that for sure.
MACHKA I think 1 50 km ride per month at least is AMAZING! everything is relative!
BARBARA you always write nice, caring personals!
GINNY - I was one of the people who mentioned part time. another option some youngish retirees around me have mentioned is retiring and THEN working part time for the same old employer. apparently sometimes an option : getting retirement money AND getting part time pay... using your extra 3h weekly sounds like a nice compromise for now.
For work dilemma is there some "optional" intermediate possibility.
At some point here, classes were distant BUT people could come in and do them from a classroom online (instead of home online) if they wished to. giving a little bit of leeway somehow can sometimes be more accepted. I saw one office is now having people present only 2 days a week... a lot of people seem to prefer the hybrid option. But maybe it is too risky. you sound like a very caring and careful manager.
REBECCA congratulations on your loss!
EXES FRIENDS. to Debbie and Kylia, and others,
I always liked the idea of being friends with exes but its not as common in my life as I would ideally like. it seems one or the other often feels x y or z which doesn't make for a simple friendship.
I do exchange texts and sometimes call (and have met up on occasion but not recently) with one old ex from way way back. It's light and not complicated. I think there is really good will and friendliness. But with others I get the feeling that one or the other may have some resentment or some other weirdness that make meeting up or exchanging just not that appealing, too complicated anyway. and I'd rather meet up and exchange with friends with whom there is no or little complication!
FASTING
not sure if it works for me. I like the sort of clarity of thought it offers sometimes, but I always seem to get really hungry after fasting time so it doesn't work that well for me.
ALTERNATIVE SUGGESTION TO DIETING
I read in nytimes.com yesterday about them suggesting MINDFUL eating rather than dieting:
how hungry am I before and after?
why am I eating?
how do I feel before during after?
and so on.
I had this approach 2 times in my late 20s and early 30s and it really seemed the best approach.
in late 20s my short term therapist suggested I write down what I ate, how I felt, etc, every week and send it to her (by the post back then) and we talked about it.
then in early 30s I was seriously into meditation at least an hour a day with some intensive retreats, observing mostly breath body sensations, but also aware of thoughts.
I couldn't help but be aware of my eating during those silent retreats.
on the last day you could talk and there was a treat. (chocolate cake)
I remember the craving of it and the wierd (not physically satisfying) feeling physically during and after eating it...even though it was tongue tasty..
and I stayed somewhat aware like that for some years after.
now I've got sort of a base of having practiced this physical awareness (observation) for years, but I'm less practicing for sure over past 10 or 15 years.
I feel better with tis latter approach though.

today I wanted to get to café at 7am and write for 4h between 7 and 1, giving myself a break time. at present I run into a few good friends who come there every day.
but I was dragging dragging dragging.
I awaken early but am SLOW to get going. I got to the café at around 8:30 or so, but spoke w friends and did this and that (also a drawing) and only worked from 9:30 to 11:30 taking notes from this book I want to return to a friend. at 11:30 mentally tired so I took a break and never really got back to work. now I'm gonna go to buy some food (no fruit left!!) and get on with the day.
At present I'm working on writing project in morning and other stuff and obligations in afternoon.
It's slightly chilly here, but mostly I'm running out of wool socks. I ordered 4 pairs yesterday and a pair of jeans. (first jeans/trousers purchase online- I'll see how it goes). clothes was such a hassle/impossibility for a year that I've finally jumped into trying the online option. Means have to get better at returning stuff.
I have bought shoes online though : known solid brands and my shoesize is very regular and standard, easy fit.
wishing you all a good day.

Accountability:Chose well: Joe, 143.5, readings, osteo back, BP, dogs to powerline, 33 mins line dancing, steps >7400, CI<CO, CI<250<CO, mfp50+, H20x8
Bonus: bequest committee emails, veg prep, one load laundry, baked gluten free Italian almond cookies… bit o’ faff for meh.
Workin’ on it:
Happier January 2022
4: Write a list of things you feel grateful for and why. Joe fed dogs last night, built fire in woodstove when power went out at 4am, cooked breakfast for us all on the gas stove. Electricity to pump water and connect to internet after this morning’s 4 hour power outage. Legs that can walk dogs, line dance, do sit to stands. Dogs that make me get up out of the chair, get outside and make me laugh,
Woke to darkness, power out, but warm thanks to Joe building a fire in the woodstove. Joe cooked hash for breakfast for us all then I went back to bed to read a bit by flashlight. Later, as Joe was getting ready to crank up the generator and hook it up to the fridge, the power blipped back on. Despite complete disruption of morning routine, was able to do my “first things” when I got up, even though it was nearly noon
Welcome @kfhontherrttrack Karleen in FL/GA!
Just thru pg 7, but Joe’s up and this is my chance to hang out with him, so later, lighter lovelies!
Lighter, lovelies!

Today was a rest day. We just went for a short walk.
Last week was a big week of exercise for us, and yesterday was an exceptionally big day of cycling for us.
I'm not sure if I didn't have the quantity of electrolytes I should have had, but I turned over in bed, during the night last night, and my left shoulder cramped badly. Thankfully it is easing up this evening. Between painkillers, salty things, and rest, it seems like it will be all right.

As I mentioned, going to uni and taking on a carer's role has changed that somewhat for me.
My work, including transportation is actually 9.5 hours now.
The remaining 60 for whatever I want includes household stuff.
I have very little time for true "whatever I want" ... instead I've decided that ordering groceries online and occasional cleaning is what I want.bananasandoranges wrote: »ALTERNATIVE SUGGESTION TO DIETING

I go with a structured method of eating that has nothing to do with feelings. I think Barbie, who starts these threads, does the same thing.
I eat certain things and certain amounts at certain times of day.
If I feel hungry, I tell myself that's nonsense because what I've eaten is enough calories so that I'll be fine, and I usually busy myself with something else.

Machka: That's basically what I do. I eat set things on set days, at set times. I'm no longer an emotional eater, although I do eat mindfully1

Thanks for all the ideas on bookmarks! I love the ideas on mindful eating. Good points.
I've been tracking my food the last few days and love the option to take a picture of the food. I need simple so I can keep up with tracking. The pictures will help me stay consistent.
Julie in France: What are you writing? Sounds very cool. I can picture you writing a lovely novel while hanging out in a quaint coffee shop.

Good morning Pals.
I’ve decided on my word: Focus. There are several things that I need to focus on but first I have to write them down it seems everywhere I look something need cleaning, organizing or thrown- out.
I am the oldest lady on this thread at 82. I have three grown children and 9 grandkids. We have been retired since 1997. My DH was career Air Force for 24 years then we both worked at a university for 14 years.
We both had COVID and took the vaccines. I had bad reaction to shots and am still dealing with after affects. Besides going bald,on the top of m head, the other worst thing is fatigue. At my age. I should be fatigued but not like this. Lol
I want to get back to golf but will try 9 holes first. My other interests are bridge, reading and knitting.
I was born in LA and grew up in MS. We have traveled a lot and really miss cruising. Have plans to go to Hawaii in February depending on restrictions etc.

Hallo! Just relaxing and recovering after the girls have gone home.
They did some decoupage, which went well, but was a test of my patience. I did lose my temper with them once when they were fighting with cushions in the living room. All my nice ceramics, plus my dad's prize winning vase that he made! I did explain afterwards why I was cross. Otherwise it was great. Charades was played, plus 'gambling' with dice. 
I showed funny animal videos.
I managed to fit my afternoon bonus exercise in after they had gone at 2.30. I'm enjoying the German series on Netflix, The Last Word. We got up extra early to fit in the morning exercises, plus ring Saga on the dot of 9, when they open.
Lost some sleep last night, anticipating the Saga conversation. Tried all kinds of arguments and proposals. Eventually we agreed with them to leave the final decision until the 21st. There may be more clarity by then. I won't lose anything by postponing the decision and things may have changed. I might lose another night's sleep, but last night I did manage to get back to sleep eventually, using my techniques.
Now preparing for a quick nap before joining DH for a TV programme we both like. Dinner is fish soup with rouille, cheese, and croutons for DH.
Love to all. I feel I need a holiday now!

Bea further demolished the decorations on the Christmas tree by wearing a couple of the decorations as earrings.
I then amused her by making this.

I need to buy groceries but this snow is messing with my schedule. I was hoping it would melt off the roads by afternoon but now the temp is lower than predicted. Maybe tomorrow, but then how do I fit in yoga? Hmm. I could have done extra writing today if I hadn't slept late!

My dh did that- Retired, gets his full pension and they asked him to come back part time. As long as he didn't go over 63 hrs a month(if he went over, they would take the pension for the whole month). Then Covid hit and they really needed employees so they lifted the restrictions. We thought, great, it will be a few months where he can work more, get more money in savings and he couldn't go anywhere else anyways- Essential worker- Well, they still have not put the restrictions back in AND if he works something like 95 hrs a month, they reimburse his medical $300 plus reimburse any prescriptions we get during the month. We have been able to pay off my car in 11 months instead of 4 yrs, the few major bills we have(car/homeowners/property tax) are all paid up until June.
He is ready for them to cut back on the hours so he will only work 12-15 hrs a week but he does like seeing his account going up and up.
As for my ex. We didn't have any contact at all, didn't know how he was doing, found out he was married doing a google search. Found out later that the card and letters I had sent, just wishing him well, had never been given to him. His second wife threw them away before he saw them. She also told his parents they were not to have any contact with me. She passed away of pancreatic cancer. Wife #3 knows we talk, just doesn't know how much/often we talk. We still love each other and wish things were different. But there not.2 -
I texted my friend at tea time (who lost her partner on the 19th December) to wish her well. She got back into her own house yesterday, having spent Christmas and New Year holed up with her sister and BIL in Liverpool. They all had covid together. She rang me back immediately to tell me that her sister had just rung her to say her own husband had just had a heart attack and died.
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
I am just unable to find words. They were all super close. She feels bad she is not in a position to support her sister in the way she was supported. My heart goes out to her.
Be nice to each other.

Suebdew in TX
Sue- Sorry you are still dealing with the side effects. I lost about half my hair but not in one spot, just thinned all over. My doctor told me to get Rogain- I got the generic from Amazon and it has really helped. It did take a few months of treatment before I saw a little growth. It will take years to get it back to where it was, as my hair is down past my waist. Thankfully, my hair is very curly so, unless my hair was wet from a shower, people could not tell I lost any(unless it was in a braid)

Pooches weren’t interested in training for kibble this morning. Will try again later. Gonna pour down rain all day, good thing I have rain pants and jacket…
Welcome @auditgoddess Sandy in TX (and TN) lots of wisdom and support here.
Rebecca that is an impressive map of your success!
Welcome @herronisland. The details differ a bit if your using the app on an iphone, an android phone, a tablet or a laptop, but this works for me:
To bookmark a thread, click (or tap) the empty ribbon toward the right of the thread’s title. It fills in and turns blue.
To return to a bookmarked thread, click (or tap) your profile pic/circle at very top right, then click (or tap) Bookmarks and select from the list.
To return to the non-community sections of MFP (Food and exercise diary, etc) click (or tap) “Calorie Counter” at bottom of page.
MaryAnn in UK is your dog training assessment a job or volunteer? Is this obedience, field trials, trick dog, therapy animal or??? Please tell me more about your “dancing partner” is that what we would call “Freestyle” in the US?
Welcome (or is it welcome back?) @southernmom3 Eileen in MS. Next time one of those negative people tries to rob time from you, smile, say “no” and go on to do something that gives you joy. Setting boundaries is a survival skill. Just my .02.
Welcome back @Tawny7 Mary in Rochester. You are not alone in being reminded by the holidays of those you’ve lost. Sometimes I can channel the sadness into gratefulness for having had them in the first place. Other times I just have to have a good cry.
Kylia I’m more likely to cry before starting the workout. Have to drag myself kicking and crying. Once I get started I’m ok. That having been said, I’m working out at home alone, no one but me is pushing me, so if something hurts or is too hard, I just pass. Like Julie, my default speed is stroll and I’d rather do that than try, and fail, to force myself to do I detest. When I take the dogs to the powerline, we stroll, but then I try to practice a line dance or two, or shuffle/jog partway back up to start the sweat.
Suebdew, duplicate or party bridge?
Heather, pillowfighting in a living room containing treasured ceramics? I’d’ve been more than cross, I’d’ve gone ballistic! Hope they learned there’s a place for everything…
Bea’s bling. Oh no, your poor friend and her sister. 
The closer, the harder. ((hugs))
This morning’s reading on trust got me, helps me understand and accept the illogic of hope and faith.”There are times when we can do all that a fellow creature needs if only he will trust us. In getting a dog out of a trap, in extracting a thorn from a child’s finger, in teaching a boy to swim or rescuing one who can’t, in getting a frightened beginner over a nasty place on a mountain, the one fatal obstacle may be their distrust. We are asking them to trust us in the teeth of their sense, their imagination, and their intelligence. We ask them to believe that what is painful will relieve their pain and that what looks dangerous is their only safety. We ask them to accept apparent impossibilities: that moving the paw farther back into the trap is the way to get it out – that hurting the finger very much more will stop the finger hurting – that water which is obviously permeable will resist and support the body – that holding onto the only support within reach is not the way to avoid sinking – that to go higher and onto a more exposed ledge is the way not to fall. To support all these incredibilia we can rely only on the other party’s confidence in us – a confidence certainly not based on demonstration, admittedly shot through with emotion, and perhaps, if we are strangers, resting on nothing but such assurance as the look of our face and the tone of our voice can supply, or even, for the dog, on our smell. Sometimes, because of their unbelief, we can do no mighty works. But if we succeed, we do so because they have maintained their faith in us against apparently contrary evidence. No one blames us for demanding such faith. No one blames them for giving it.”

not sure if it works for me. I like the sort of clarity of thought it offers sometimes, but I always seem to get really hungry after fasting time so it doesn't work that well for me.
ALTERNATIVE SUGGESTION TO DIETING
I read in nytimes.com yesterday about them suggesting MINDFUL eating rather than dieting:
how hungry am I before and after?
why am I eating?
how do I feel before during after?
and so on.
I had this approach 2 times in my late 20s and early 30s and it really seemed the best approach.

I feel better with tis latter approach though.
The hunger issue happens for a couple months, then it kind of goes away. I get hungry once I start prepping my meal, and nibbling on something then that enzyme kicks in telling me, yes you are hungry. I eat my meal, maybe a snack then get back to fasting. Definitely an OMADer. (one meal a dayer).
Putting some Himalayan salt kernels under your tongue helps with hunger and headaches too.👍

Oooh I was up at 6:30 AM this morning, then sent to gym with Lee. Yep I did it!
Today's food was a repeat of yesterday, because it was so wonderful.
Shrimp salad with tomatoes and thousand island dressing. Then two hash brown patties, two eggs and 4 sausage links. Dessert is 3 prunes and a piece of chocolate.

Thank you for very much for explaining how to bookmark. I couldn't see the ribbon until I changed the Zoom from 100 to 80. I have had MyFitnessPal since 2014 and for New Years I just bought myself a paid membership. So far, I have explored the extra options and benefits, but I can't find instructions or how to get MyFitnessPal to answer a question, and I have several questions. I've tried searching these forums without success, which is frustrating - and being frustrated makes me overeat.2
