  • Well hello August! Summer seems to be flying by! I am Amanda, I am from Michigan. I lost 50 pounds last year but have been stuck at pretty much the same weight for about 7 months. This month I would like to put a dent in that number! Hooray for willpower! SW: 250 UGW: 150 7/31: 199.9 8/31 GW: 195 8/1: 199.4 8/2: 199.9 I…
  • @deepwoodslady Keeping you in my thoughts, I know about scanxiety. I have my check in scans in September for lung and liver nodules they are keeping an eye on. Better safe than sorry but it’s nerve wracking!
  • @ddainiak Great reflections! You are one of my biggest sources of inspiration here. I know you were disappointed in yourself for the end of month weight gain because your friends were in town but I also know you know you can easily get those pounds off and it is not something you do all the time and friends dont visit…

  • The other day the doctor said (for me) to make sure I am eating enough. She said gone are they days when I could restrict calories (meaning 1000 or 1200) for a few days and lose 5 pounds. I kind of remember doing that when I was in my 20’s and *thought* I was overweight and honestly I’ve tried it a few times in my older…

  • Found Jill's August challenge! MFP really buries these things! https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10895738/%EF%B8%8F-%EF%B8%8Faugust-daily-weigh-in-and-log-in-challenge-%EF%B8%8F-%EF%B8%8F
  • @jm216 and @gomifune I love graphs! I love your graphs! I wish I could post mine but I am not tech savvy enough to figure it out. I have to look at mine when I get discouraged to see that the overall trend is going down, MFP has my weight since 2011! I also use Happy Scale and that comes with all sorts of data points.…

  • @BittersweetVita I do wear a sleeve and a compression bra 24 hours a day. It’s lovely in the heat. They both were hurting so much last night though that I removed them and my swelling has gone way down this morning. I finally feel some relief! The lymphedema is no joke, I have to do my drainage exercises twice a day, I…

  • @deepwoodslady Thank you for your kind words, I am so glad to know I have you in my corner! Thank you for the link too, I can listen to it tonight. I think my chocolate cravings are hormonal. Or…I don’t know. All of my life, up until about 4 months ago, if I got a craving it was for salty carbs. Pizza was my kryptonite.…

  • @jm216 How far are you from Whitmore Lake? This is my first summer without access to a beautiful, sparkling, private pool and I am missing it! 🏊‍♀️ I’m joking, I would never just show up. I’ll sneak in during the night 😎
  • @BittersweetVita I am definitely in your corner rooting for you! It seems you have had a rough go of it. I too am a cancer survivor, and it is recent. I heard talk of “survivor support” and wondered how much support a survivor would need because after all, they survived, they should be happy right? Well now that I’m here,…
