  • @Womona The art therapy will be kind of whatever I’m in the mood for that day. She mentioned an affirmation collage, symbolism, mandalas and breathing and other such therapist speak. If it helps, I’m willing to give it a go!

  • Hi everyone! My name is Amanda, I am from Michigan. This is my second time on MFP. I lost 55 pounds in 2016, over the years gained it all back plus some. I started again last March with a goal to lose 110 pounds. I’ve lost 45 and would like to lose 45 more this year. It’s a new month and a new year! My goal this month is…
  • Hello all, I’m Amanda from Michigan. I belong to 2 other challenges on here but thought I would give this one a try! I will post my weight on Mondays. I lost 45 pounds in 2022 and would like to lose at the very least 45 more in 2023. I have some scary medical procedures coming up in January and have no idea how they will…
  • @clprieur Im sorry you and your poor doggie got yelled at. Some people just have to make others miserable.
  • Hello, I’m Amanda. I did great with these 10 day challenges in the summer and the fall but some things have changed health wise and I’m finding it harder to lose the weight. Here’s hoping for a more positive outcome this time around. OSW: 250 lbs 1/22 SW: 204.4 1/31 GW: 203.4 1/22: 204.4 Up a little bit due to celebratory…
  • Awww Jill, thank you for your kind words! 🥲 Thanks for picking up where I need to leave off. I was sorry to read of your dear Roxie’s passing. That’s one of the hardest things to go through in life. This is a great, supportive group and I do feel safe here. There are some crazy threads on MFP! This is a good one! Love to…

  • @deepwoodslady I too have been bouncing between 201 and 205 since October 3 and it is very frustrating. I had grandiose plans last August of being in Onederland and on a beach over Christmas. Then everything changed. The fatigue I feel is like nothing I’ve felt before with this illness and it doesn’t help my mental outlook…

  • I love the Swedish Death Cleaning article! I can forward it to my dad but he'll just deny he has a problem. I am constantly on the lookout for a tendency to hoard in myself. I used to hoard books, I got through that. I live in a 1,100 square foot apartment so not a ton of space but enough for me. I have one atrocious…
  • @Stockholm_Andy I love kitties, thanks for posting that. Good luck with your experiment! Also thank you for the video! It’s very true. And I love the 90s! Thank you, I needed to see that. @MissMay Thank you, with all my heart @lmlmrn I helped my parents move in September. My mom started sorting things in May and is not a…

  • @MissMay I would LOVE to quit this job. Unfortunately it is not possible because I need my health insurance so badly right now because of this damn cancer. I could look up COBRA coverage but Im not sure where I would get the money to pay for that. I also am a firm believer that its easier to find a job when you have a job.…

  • @Sinisterbarbie1 Oh No oh no oh no! What are we going to do with these elderly folks and their brittle bones? I’ve considered making my mom a suit made of bubble wrap….seriously. My mom is 74 and I can’t even list everything she’s broken since age 55. Her most recent was….her kneecap. The dog pulled her over while on her…
