Please allow me to Introduce Myself...
I'm Jon, 61, and I live in south Florida. This past autumn my wife convinced me to see a doctor. My first visit to the doctor for something non-injury related in more than 35 years. I felt fine, but I wanted help losing some weight. Turns out I was on death's doorstep. The doctor found that I have uncontrolled diabetes,…

Exiting weight loss Plateau
I have lost 55 lbs and would like to lose 20 more. However, I have hit a plateau and haven’t been able to break it for 5 months. I do not exercise, and I know that would help, but I didn’t exercise to lose the 55 lbs. I ve been told I’m not eating enough calories. I live in southern New Jersey and thought a nutritionist…

❓❓❓How have I maintained my 110 lb weight loss over 5 years? ❓❓
From 288 lbs to 178 lbs for over 5 years!! I do go up and down within a general 7 lb range, but how did I lose in the first place? Was it EASY? NO WAY was it easy. At that time, I couldn't walk much, but I could still lose!! I am not a healthy eater (Way better than I was though!) and I flatly refused to make any drastic…

Fitness for folks 50+

I also have a 19 years old from a previous marriage. Why all this background verging on TMI? Well because I believe it to be…

Cholesterol
Forgive me if I am posting in the wrong section. New poster :) I need to watch my cholesterol, so I have been logging daily. Today I looked at the cholesterol MG for my end of day and was floored! After looking at every single thing I ate, it doesn't add up in the total macro section as it does in the individual posting of…

Weight loss without, or with limited, physical activity.
Hi there. I've struggled with weight loss over the last 3-4 years, mostly due to medical/physical health issues. As a result, the amount of physical activity I could do is limited to none. I'd lose a pound or two, then gain... or remain at a stable weight, then gain... and gain. Life happens, etc. Well now, between May…

Today I walked on my own -Bye bye scooter?
My husband and I both have a severe cold, we both got an earache and a fever overnight and I made an appointment with an urgent care office for Sunday morning. It’s a huge building with modern, long hallways. They have rolling chairs in the lobby, for people who can’t walk very well. I started using these chairs about six…

Weight Loss Rhythm
I have a weird kind of question, I guess it mainly depends on how an individual is goal-orientated. But which method of goal setting works better? "I will lose 50 lbs in one year" or "I will lose 10 lbs in two months"

Hi! After having had the app for a couple of years, I am just giving it a serious go. I am a father of three, and one of my kids has a learning disability.

Here to lose 150 lbs, Wanna be friends?
Hey guys, Happy 2025! I lost over 100 lbs back in 2019 and 2020 and I kept it off until I got Covid really bad and then I got depressed because I was having a lot of adverse health issues from my long covid.
