edited January 16 in Introduce Yourself
I have been here awhile but it seems several of my friends have become inactive. Please add me. Here is a post I made this morning and will serve to introduce myself:

I:sad: need to share: I have been on a weight loss plateau for months now. So frustrating. My doctor said not to worry about not losing, but just to keep up all that I am doing for fitness. Sigh. So, I am upping my calories to net 1200 calories (to eat back all the exercise calories I burn) to see if that makes the scale go to the down direction. Scary, because I have not been able to lose in years past unless I was under net 1000 calories. (BTW, I am 65 and on oxygen with 40 pounds to lose. I do the bike at the gym 60 minutes a day, plus senior fitness 2-3 times a day.) Wish me luck! :flowerforyou:

    Hi Sandy!
    You can add me if you like. I'm right in the middle of tax season so I'm not on here like I usually am but do check in everyday. After April 15th I can be a good MFP!! I'll understand if you don't want to add me now. Wishing you the best, Karen

    Add me. I am on here a lot, on a weight loss plateau myself. Trying to get the scale to move, so playing with the calories I have been eating.

    I believe we can all lose this weight.

    Please feel free to add me. Also I have a bunch of friends who do not mind if anyone adds them so check out my friend's list. They are a great support group I think. Good luck! Anyone else can also feel free to add me if you like.
