😜 Biking Across the U.S.A ★ On My Stationary Bike 😜

Brooks Runners
Firstly, I aspire to be a runner. Currently I carry too much weight and in an aging body I am overly cautious about joint damage. I danced and played soccer ⚽️ all my youth, went back to play a season around age 45 at my heaviest weight because if I couldn’t move for something I loved I might as well be dead. I lived…

Eating 1500 to 1800 Calories
I've been at this for 2 months and a I feel great. I'm only tired when I dont sleep enough. I started at 386 (scale) one July 4 and now Sept 7 i'm at 348. I'm thinking 19 Lbs a month is no safe. Some of it is probably a change in medication though that removed edema from both of my legs. I can now see the veins in the top…

I’m coming, coming back, back to MFP!
Hey! I’ve been here off and on for at least 10 years. I’m in a place where I’m finally prioritizing myself, more educated, and also giving myself grace when I slip up.

Yo-yo dieter, seeks healthy relationship with food!
Hello 👋 For most of my life I have been on one “diet” or another. The last 6 years have been extremely challenging mentally, however after a humongous amount of work I am now content 🙌 My next challenge is to finally tackle the weight (which has sadly got out of all proportion - unless I’m next to a walrus). Next year I…

A friend suggested I try CrossFit and though I was worried about being the heaviest person there I went anyway. Fast forward two months, I…
