I forgot about the community pages!
I've been trying to be good about logging into my Food and Fitness diary on a regular basis...and I've been succeeding for the most part (there are days though....LOL). I can see where my weak points are and where I need to improve, and I've been sort of doing so, although there's slipping back into old habits...I can see…

Stepping back a bit
Hey friends, I don't love when folks just disappear off places like this because I don't know if they're okay, and depending on who it is I might even worry about them. So, for transparency: I am making some changes in how I do my day-to-day routines, and one of them involves not being on MFP because it functions kind of…

Fall fitness plans
As fall approaches, with cooler weather for some of us, does anyone have any fall fitness plans? I'm planning on riding my bike as soon as I can. I have to wait until my recovery from surgery, but I'm hoping that means by mid-October at the latest, I'll be riding on bike paths with my teen who just learned to ride and my…

Pet Pals
Does your pet join in on your exercise or cast a chary eye at you from a safe distance as you ease into down dog? Pet picks welcome here! This is Daisy. She's 12 years old, has been with us for two years, and is usually lukewarm about walking. She sees me doing yoga or PT exercises as potential chances for more snuggles.

Intro thread...
Hey! If you're not too shy, please introduce yourself! My name is Mari. I live in the US, with my partner, one of our kids (the other one is old enough to have flown the coop), and our 12 y.o. beagle -- whom I coax out for a walk every morning. Really we take turns dragging each other. But lately she's been slowing down…

Olympic Inspiration?
Anyone else watching bits of the Olympics? Have you seen anything that inspires you? Have you been reminded of your love for a sport or thought about taking up a new one? I have seen and enjoyed bits of several events -- I've mostly been letting my teen and my brother choose what they want to watch. When I look at body…

Starting over when you fall off the wagon...
So, I've got a confession to make: I've been hiding for the last week. Because I hit an emotional snag, got depressed, and stopped doing all the things I should do. (Well, not all of them, but several.) What do you do if you fall off the wagon? What do you tell yourself or think about to get back on it? What I did this…

How's everyone doing?
Just wanted to check and see how everyone is progressing. I'm still just 6 pounds down. My husband isn't counting calories, but he's ridden my stationary bike for an hour almost every day since February. He's lost about the same amount as me. We saw our Dr this morning, and his blood pressure was better than it's ever been…

Favorite exercise/Least favorite exercise + Anything you want to try?
Want to share what your fave and least-fave workout activities are? Got anything you've always wanted to try but haven't? I love ballet and gymnastics the most, but have loved nearly every type of dance I've tried. I also enjoy swimming -- in an advanced-beginner, I-can't-do-a-flipturn kind of way -- and yoga -- whenever…
