Hello, I am Amanda, I’m a crazy cat lady from Michigan. I stopped logging and weighing mid February because of health issues and I ended up gaining back about 4 pounds. I worked hard to lose weight last year and don’t want to gain it all back! My goal for April is to lose those 4 pounds and walking 3 days a week. OSW: 250…

@brittgreenlikethecolor88 Youre doing great! I cut back alcohol in June ‘22 and started losing weight in March of ‘22. A big reason I stopped (and there are bigger reasons) was the nighttime heartburn and the daytime sleepiness. It was killing me. I would wake up “fine” but by noon I was a zombie.

@itladyee Chin up! You can do this! Losing weight is incredibly hard for certain people of a certain age and has so many factors, which it sounds like you are taking into account. I am working very hard on weight loss too and some days….man. I’m glad you had a lovely vacation, everyone deserves that. @lmlmrn I love hearing…

@globalhiker You are heard on the hot flashes. I get mine more during the day though. Driving around with the window down in 32 degree weather like a lunatic. When I get one at night it doesn’t wake me up until I am in a cold sweat and I am shivering. How many years of this? I recently bought 100% cotton sheets and a…

I don’t know if this helps or not but I had high blood pressure for a couple of years and was about 110 pounds overweight. I also have a severe anxiety disorder and a high stress job. I lost 50 pounds and started tracking my 3 major macros, my sodium (I put it down to 1,800 mg per day instead of 2,500-with my doctor’s…

Those cheesecakes look FABULOUS! Mouth watering! I love how phyllo dough bakes but dealing with it can be a nightmare! I commend you both!

@BittersweetVita Wow, you have a lot on your plate! I just finished radiation treatment for my estrogen driven breast cancer 2 weeks ago. I just started Tamoxifen on 4/4 and yeah, not fun. So tired and sore. I have to be on it for 5 years so I feel like I have to give it a very good try. I can relate with the demanding job…

@MissMay How scary! I’m sorry that happened to you and I am glad you called for help and got home safe! We need you! (Love the dinosaur post-maybe I’ll bring that point up to the doctor.) @itladyee Thank you for your kind words. I hope your dessert turns out fabulous! Pictures please! I love phyllo dough but it’s not the…

@RockinRobyn672 The hormone therapy is 10 years. I’ve been on it for 4 damn days. My cravings for sweets are through the roof. I’m usually a carbs/salt girl. I haven’t given in but chocolate is always on my mind now. I’m aware of the dietary concerns but no one (oncologists) has brought that up. It is not on my…

@RockinRobyn672 & @itladyee I became overwhelmed/burnt out/sick of weighing and logging this past February. I stopped keeping track in mid-February. I tried to eat the same. I did well for about 3 weeks and then slowly old, bad habits creeped in. I ended up gaining back 4 pounds by April 1st. (I had radiation therapy in…

@forestdweller1 I am a “fixer” too. It’s hard for me to listen to someone’s problems without wanting to offer solutions and I know that is sometimes not what people need. I’m sorry to hear of your family members problems with getting their meds. The US healthcare system is so very broken.
