My coffee addiction is getting worse.
I make a cup in my V60 first thing, and when I've drunk that I make a litre in the French press. I put that into the Thermos and take it to work with me, which means I normally only buy one additional cup of coffee during the day.
I once gave up all caffeine for a fortnight to see prove I wasn't addicted. I decided that I was, but it is probably a relatively minor sin.0 -

We had a Betamax - how old does that make me?
That reminds me. I was in a convenience store over the weekend and picked up a 20 oz diet Dr. Pepper. The store was selling them 2 for $1 or $1.99 a piece. I was complaining about the price to the clerk, that $2 for a bottle of pop was ridiculous and that I could easily remember when they came in 16 oz glass bottles and were 49 cents a piece, and he just gaped at me. I think that officially makes me old lolMy coffee addiction is getting worse.

I did the same back in the winter, giving up all caffeine and did prove that I wasn't addicted. But I went back after that 2 week period. I was very busy and not getting enough sleep and needed that pick me up. And besides, I may not be addicted to caffeine, but I like the taste of coffee and black tea and the occasional can of Diet Dr. Pepper!0 -

You can't give up because Maggie will do it! One thing we can do every day is make a new start. If yesterday wasn't so good, that doesn't mean today can't be better. We make our own destiny. Make your next meal a healthy one and take a few steps forward. You got this, You CAN do it.1 -

Happy Friday Midlifers
And nooooo don't quit, today is a new day, stay with us!3 -
Morning all! I wasn't paying attention yesterday after a gym session. I got on the wrong train.
I fixed the issue in a slightly bonkers way - I stayed on the train after I realised, and then walked from a random station to mine. It took about an hour. So I got 20,000 steps in as well as the bouldering session.0 -

'OLD' IS WHEN...
You are cautioned to slow down by the doctor instead of by the police.
'OLD' IS WHEN...
'Getting a little action' means you don't need to take any fiber today.
'OLD' IS WHEN...
'Getting lucky' means you find your car in the parking lot.
Let's just stay middle-aged forever....
You know your old when...
You lived in a time without seat belts, cell phones or home computers and survived
And played outside in the mud and dirt with no disinfectant wipes or hand sanitizers and survived.0 -

Good morning and a happy Friday to you all. Have a great weekend! Unfortunately I will be working all weekend.
On a side note, I joined a crossfit gym last week and have been working out regularly for the first time in a while and dang I'm sore! :-)1 -
I’m 38 and just restarted my journey on my MyFitnessPal. I’m down 19 pounds so far. I have a ways to go, add me if you would like. Let’s support each other!1

Hi guys 🙋♀️. I am not new to MFP but new to the community part of it. I hope it's ok to be 43 and not feel middle aged 😂🙈 On my way to my ideal weight for the second time.... doing ok so far and have 10 more kilos to go ( friends say that's too much ). Hope to reach my goals in the next two months. I have a feeling this group will make the jurney more fun 🙂 ... My biggest problem atm... I love weight training but I cant make my self to start doing it again even tho I know what it will do to my body and how good it makes me feel.
Sorry for the long post ... noob here 😂4 -
Hi everyone, I am 43 years old & hope to meet new friends & support each other. 😊

Four months away from the big 50. Started back on the path to a healthy lifestyle. Going forward with a Keto based program. Hope to hit my target before my birthday. First 30 days were amazing.

Happy weekend!
So what do we think about this disagree button? So far I think the bullies who used woo as their passive aggressive attack have transitioned nicely to using this new disagree button.
It looks a dreary day here from my bed. I do believe I will make some cupcakes.
