Hi there! Happy to meet you :) . I already know @sunshinezombiegirl1 , and I look forward to getting to know everyone else! I go by morenin on the internet (and frankly, like it better than my birth name, so it's my nickname at this point). I have 3 cats and a dog that I love to pieces. I live with my elderly aunt and my…

Hi, I'm morenin, and I am currently in Mission Slimpossible. I would like to switch to a different group for February, please. Shapeshifters would be my preference, if there's room. Thanks!

Hi, I am still feeling awful, but I think I've figured out the problem. I take vitamin supplements because I have IBS bad enough I don't absorb all the vitamins from my food. My health improved when I started supplementing, and in particular, my previously low blood iron level rose to normal. Well, at least 2 weeks ago, I…

Just in case! I'm really sick today (on the plus side, not even up to eating). So I am going back to bed after I post. morenin Sunday SW: 255 PW: 218 CW: 216.1

I'm confused? My weigh in day is Sunday? Did I miss it?

My pcp is letting me go back on phentermine for 3 months to try and restart my weight loss *happy dance*! It helps suppress appetite, which helps me because my psychiatric medicines are weight gainers (aka I'm unnaturally hungry on them, but I NEED them to function). In exercise news, I fell off the wagon with the January…

The article said they're skimming location data and selling it to companies and government agencies. They may be able to connect account names with real names, but that's uncertain.

4 inches of snow and our house has a huge footprint, being on the corner with a 3 car driveway. 2 hours of shoveling today. I'm considering never moving again... But definitely a good workout!

In this case, a company unconnected to MFP has figured out how to access where people's phones are thru the app. I don't believe they have a way to link phone location to real names. A number of popular apps have been hit. They are then selling that information. It's not technically illegal... yet. MFP has not announced…

Thank you all for the support. I'm getting support from my family also, so I needed to take a day and just step away. Several doctors who think I should lose weight easily said I should count calories. But frankly, it seems to just be making me super upset. I don't eat under 1200 calories, but I seem to be stuck right in…

I'm really, really depressed about my weight gain. All week, I've been eating far below my supposed calorie amount. One day of extra cake, and despite the calories not adding up, I'm up 3 lb. The calories aren't adding up! I'm so tired of being hungry all the time. I don't see the point of tracking, when my body doesn't…

morenin Sunday SW: 255 PW: 218 CW: 218.4 I gained 3 lb. back overnight, probably because I was starving yesterday and gorged myself on cake. Have to do better.

We're (finally) having a normal Pennsylvania winter of well below freezing and we're expecting snow again tomorrow. Not really a big deal, but I'm exercising indoors exclusively (barring shoveling)! I had a relapse and was too sick to eat a normal amount of calories, though I had enough to be safe. I was also too sick to…

Here is a non-paywalled version. https://wired.com/story/gravy-location-data-app-leak-rtb/

The MYFitnessPal app has been hacked to steal locations of users, folks might want to switch to the website until this is fixed. https://404media.co/candy-crush-tinder-myfitnesspal-see-the-thousands-of-apps-hijacked-to-spy-on-your-location/

I missed a day due to illness, but I'm back on it. I am unsure if it's doing any good, but I figure it must be better than nothing! I really think doing it consistently will at least make me more flexible. I actually use Calm for meditation and I really like it's different choices for styles. However, my best friend who…

Day 3 of the New Year, and I am still doing 15 minutes of chair yoga and a meditation daily. Honestly wondering if it will do me any good, but maybe I'm just moody after the holidays. I flat out don't feel like going out in the cold to go to the gym (despite it being literally 3 blocks away), so I have decided to call the…

Happy New Year! As part of my resolution to take better care of myself, I've joined a challenge on Down Dog app, doing 15 minutes of chair yoga a day. Day 1 complete! I have been eating far too much sugar and not nearly enough protein, so revising my meals will be the next step.

Hi, I go by Morenin! I am currently a homemaker, living in the Pittsburgh area with my spouse, my eldest living aunt, a senior dog, and 3 cats. I am a gamer, reader, and cross stitcher. I tend to be an introvert, but I'm trying to open up to people more. I am getting into cooking more to help with my health, save money,…

Whoops, I typoed my weigh in! PW was 216.7 not 226.7!

I'm having some mental health stuff going on. Add to that holiday craziness, and taking care of stuff for my mom, and I'm a little short on time. I will be posting weigh-ins but may be absent from the conversation until after Christmas.

Pretty sure the weight is just water weight going up and down. I just wish it would settle on down! Trying to at least stick to calories, mostly. With the holiday season and poor planning, it's not always working out.

morenin Weigh in Day: Sunday SW: 255 Previous Weight: 217.5 Current Weight: 219.5 Obviously, very disappointed about gaining all my weight back. Still moving onto a new medicine, combined with holiday treats just is making it hard right now.
