    How often do you all check in with your doctor regarding health issues or weight loss? Just once a year, more, less? I know because I have health issues I am supposed to check in twice a year at least but it has been almost a full year.... and I am so nervous about my labs tomorrow that it is crazy. :#

    Are you a musician? I realize it doesn't take super huge big skill to play the uke, but you seem to speak with confidence about playing and singing.

    @MaeesaAHHH can I ask you & the other ladies here a question . Are you getting random requests from men to be your friends ? I have no interest in chatting with men . I’ve received 3 requests . It feels jerky to turn a friend request down but 2 were very young men & todays was someone in Alaska but I clicked on the photo & it said no friends no posts . Is this some fishy thing I should be afraid of ? I declined by the way . But I still feel bad . My mamma raised a girl who hates to offend .

    I've had a few requests too and if they seem dodgy I will remove them.. You shouldn't feel bad as it is your profile and you can have whomever you want on it.. Or not 😀

    I have some friends on here who are men and also trying to get fit and have been good friends and very supportive. I think you can tell pretty quickly who is here for the right reasons. For a while I actually got a bunch of...how shall I put this... pornographic female accounts lol not sure what list I ended up on but it's stopped now. I get skeeved out when a man private messages me, I usually just don't reply and then they delete me lol

    I have too many chronic conditions so i get checked every 3-4 months. I guess it depends on wat kind of problems u have, the doctor usually tells u how often u should follow up. If not, ask him or her at ur next appointment. Good luck 👍💓

    @allison8668 thanks for asking!!! I used to play lead guitar in a metal band when i was younger lol. I also played keys, guitar is 6 stringed whereas the uke is 4-stringed but i got my son a ukitar (or guilele) which is a hybrid (basically a 6 stringed uke). My son also has a guitar that his aunty gave him which he cant play yet. My voice is nothing out of the ordinary but i still sing cuz i love music so much hehe. I also played the mandolin briefly, another 4 stringed instrument like the uke. These days i just play/sing for fun, im no metal head lol 😆

    Lol @Gold6767 at ur experience! Yes, there are many nice people here i agree. But like everywhere else, it's a public network where we meet people we don't know. And we all have different priorities about using mfp: some of us are looking for new connections outside just fitness buddies, etc. I have lots of male friends in real life, my best friend from high school is a boy n we r still in touch but im not interested in meeting new people on social networks at this phase of life to be honest. N i dont want to deal with drama with my husband if any situation arises, so i just play it safe. Also, the reason i mentiom I've been approached by sketchy men here on mfp is that I've mentioned everywhere on mfp including my profile that im a mom n i dont want male friends but they add me anyway.

    Normally I would see my doctor annually for a well check up however, I became ill in March of 2020 and the roller coaster ride of different doctors had my head spinning for a while. I too was worried about my labs and happily I was quite surprised by most of the results. I see my GP tomorrow so I'm ready, she on the other hand may not be since I last saw her April.

    Good Evening all I hope everyone had a great day. Today was a good day for me, Cardiac Rehab at noon and I increased all my workouts by 5 minutes. After the rehab I took a short walk at the park before the rain started. taemdpkkvc6h.jpg

    Good Morning to All, I hope you all have a wonderful day. This morning I have appointment with my GP for annual check up and follow up from a visit in April before all the testing was scheduled by my cardiologist. I am checking to be sure I have copies all of the test, my blood pressure log etc. just in case the other doctors and hospital didn't send copies which often is the case. After the doctor's visit I will stop on the way home at one of the parks for a walk, then off to do some grocery shopping.gqxh3vh2uy7g.png

    I love starting my day here with this supportive community . It’s made a huge difference in my mindset . Thank You all so much for your inspiring stories ! This was us last night . Me trying to not drink carbs & to get some dinner that wasn’t fried . I was starving ( beach community ) we really should just stay home until sept ! But I ended up with 2 cocktail shrimp . So I was pretty proud of that ! 4soerbop0308.jpeg

    Hi everyone 👋 im Kari, 41 (next week), and back on this merry go round! Lol as I'm not getting any younger and this isn't getting any easier (crash dieting) I'm going back to basics and taking the slow approach focusing on consistency with staying active and counting calories. Seems a lot of folks on my friend's list went different ways and my feed is a little empty. I'd love to make new friends who are active and motivated to make positive lifestyle changes. Feel free to add me! Because I can't for the life of me figure out how to add people myself ☺️

    Good Morning All, Happy Friday! I wish all of you a wonderful day and a great weekend. I am off to Cardiac Rehab today so I am trying to get the morning chores out of the way, my knee is still off from the workout on Wednesday so the step platform is out of the running, having my knee go out on me is not an option. After rehab it's off to find a nice piece of Salmon for dinner.
