Newbie....starting Foundayo....help with A1C
It’s been ages….years…. long time since I used MyFitnessPal — so long I had to sign up again. Anyhow here I am, almost in the same boat I was a decade ago but now 75 instead of 65. Have been on the cusp of diabetes for many years and go for semi-annual blood work next week with hesitation that maybe I will officially tip…

GET DAT REAR IN GEAR July 2026 Challenge
It's not summer for some of us. It's winter in the southern part of the globe.

Progress

March Mindfulness Challenge 2026
Life is...well....it's LIFE, isn't it? It can be good. It can also be busy, frantic, and sometimes, downright chaotic. We are pulled so many directions but so many situations and distractions. When do we have time to breathe, let alone live in the moment? So this month, I think it would be excellent to challenge ourselves…
