good morning,
Steps:
June 10= 9562
June 11= 3075
June 12= 10,104
June 13= 4808
I've lost motivation, or maybe commitment. I don't feel like logging food, making my steps. I had to take my Dad to hospital for surgery on the 11th so not a lot of steps, but I didn't feel motivated enough to go for a walk that evening. Not sure whats going on, but I'm in a slump for sure. I'll try to turn things around on my days off.
Have a good weekend everyone!3 -
@JenHul - I’m sorry to hear you’re feeling unmotivated. I hope you can give yourself grace and maintain your fantastic progress. I’ve been so impressed by your consistent losses. I’m guessing you must be close to your goal weight.
Could this be your body telling you that you’re there?
You’ve come so far! Maybe reflecting on your success and what got you to this point could help you reframe your feelings? Best wishes getting through this phase of lethargy! You can do it!

newsfeed is being replaced with Activity. I've been playing with it a bit, and here's what I've learned.Itadakimasu7 wrote: »Hey Shape Shifters - I love this group but am feeling sad without my newsfeed. I looked forward to a few posters in particular each day who are now gone. Anyway, I'm dropping out but will come back now and then to see how everyone is doing in the group.
Good luck everyone.
But first, let's clarify the difference between MFP and MFP Community. They might appear as one
thing, but they are not.- MFP Community is a separate software package called Vanilla Forums. Vanilla Forums is an Open Source Software package. That means anyone can get their own copy and integrate it into their website. That's what MFP has done. On the plus side, it saves companies from having to create their own forum software. On the down side, they have to accept the package as it is currently designed. So, newsfeed is being removed from Vanilla Forums, and MFP has no control over that.
- You have two distinct profile pages: one is your MFP profile, found at MyFitnessPal's My Home tab, then Profile subtab. This has the URL: www.myfitnesspal.com/profile/<username>
- You have a second profile for MFP Community: currently it's a bit awkward to get to (they might fix that), but you'll find it by clicking the Community tab, then clicking your profile photo at upper right, then clicking again on the photo in the dropdown.
- On your Community Profile page, you'll see Activity towards the bottom.
https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10915268/welcome-to-your-activity-feed#latest
One important note is: Since your Activity feed is part of your profile, it won't be accessible if your profile is set to private. Their solution for those who want to keep their profile private is to create a Group which they can then invite specific members to join (same as how F2F group works).

- Under your Notification Preferences, there are toggles for New comments on my activity feed posts and New posts on my profile's activity feed. Checking these will ensure you're notified when someone posts a comment on your Activity Feed.

@JenHul Hope your dad is ok after surgery and recovers quickly...some days when we're overwhelmed, we just have to concentrate on breathing and then each day after, take baby steps to get back on track. Will be thinking of you this week and we're here if you need to vent. YOU GOT THIS, even though it doesn't feel like it right now...baby steps, baby steps!!

@angmarie28 - That’s understandable. Try to give yourself grace and time to grieve. You are always caring for others, whether at work or home, so I hope you can allow yourself to lean on others during this difficult time. I remember you often carved out time from your busy schedule to care for your mother when she needed help. I hope it’s a comfort to you that you were there for her and you had such a close relationship that “she was [your] person.” My condolences to you and your family. ❤️🩹2

@angmarie28 I'm sure you're still reeling and that's the worst feeling ever...like the world is moving too fast and you have no control over anything. I'm so sorry for your pain. Just try to breathe...and when you feel you can, take a walk to center yourself...cherish some of those hidden away memories of good times with your Mom...places she liked to go, things she liked to do...it will make you feel her presence all around you...and although you might shed a tear, it will help you start to heal. I'm thinking of you...just breathe...and lean on your family...take care...we're here when you need us...

The daily card:The Greek philosophers first popularized the idea that the heart is linked to one of our strongest emotions: love. Love brings us joy and, as research has shown, is also good for our physical health. It appers in various guises: romance, compassion, empathy and friendship. Send silent love to the people you encounter today. In your mind, hope that they will find happiness during the day. Imagine that love as a white light flowing through your body and out to everyone you meet.
