Any other CKD patients out there looking to swap recipes?
New to having discussions here . I am JR and struggling with Stage 3 CKD. Have to revamp my diet but having a difficult time finding recipes that are actually good . Allowable and off-limits foods are so confusing! Find myself not eating enough and feeling weakened. Does anyone have good advice for me ?
Caffeine Intake
My fitness pal needs to track caffeine intake, It would be an amazing feature. Many people have concerns about caffeine intake or just like to track it on a daily basis. This would greatly improve my experience with this app.

What is the best way to just start having AF days?
I am doing well on managing my diet, other than wine. I commit to skipping it every day, but at 5:00, I cave in. My husband does not drink, which act makes it worse. And I also do worse at home than when I’m out. I would like to have at least 3 AF days/week. Would love suggestions! Thank you
LESS Alcohol ~ May 2025 ~ One Day at A Time
Do you want to drink LESS? Completely stop or just cut back? Cutting back can mean ONE less drink a day, week, or month. Or deciding to drink only on weekends or at special occasions. On the flip side, maybe you could use this nudge to finally get to that completely sober point and be all in-alcohol free. Join us in…

In need of encouragement
I am nearly at my wit's end. I just need some encouragement, as I am losing motivation quickly. I'm the only person I know who is trying to gain weight, but I am middle aged, and I'm getting so much conflicting information about what someone in my position should do. Eat a ridiculous amount of calories and lift as heavy as…

What's one small fitness habit that made a huge difference for you?
When it comes to fitness, it’s not just about intense workouts or strict diets. Often, the small, consistent habits make the biggest difference over time, in both our bodies and minds. Maybe it was drinking a bit more water, choosing the stairs, stretching each morning, or simply showing up even when your motivation was…
