  • upr3160glad your back on MFP, I find it to be so helpful for me. Wow, 10,000 steps a day. That is good. I walk in malls also in winter. Great for losing 15 lbs. Keep on going and don't give up.

  • vansnyder----thanks for letting me know what elliptical was. It is really hard exercising with arthritis, the pain is what bothers you, not the exercise itself. I got shots of what they call, "chicken injections" in my knee, (comes from the red part on a chicken) I got 4 shots, one a week and it helped me so much, it is…

  • I went out for dinner, I go to the restaurant we are going to on internet. I look up their menu and figure out what I would like to have. Then I go to MFP and add it all in, so I know I won't go over my calories. It is easy for me and that way I can just go and eat and enjoy it. I don't order anything else except what I…

  • DebraCox--- It's 7 days early, but Happy 61st birthday. That's ok in 'my eyes' to slip back to old ways, I have done it myself. The important thing is you realize it and starting over again. Good for you. This is my second time starting over, so your not alone. Does your doctor know about your new weight program. Since you…

  • SannVe--- Good for you returning to your food prepping… I am surprised at home much sugar and sodium is in foods. It is hard to do, but keeping record on MFP helps a whole lot. Good luck to you and keep in touch.

  • I was in WW years ago. I didn't get much out of their meetings. I like MFP, you can track everyday. I do it first thing in the morning and I plan my whole day of food out. Makes it easier and I can go to it if I forget (which I do a lot of lately :) If I am going out to eat,(usual restaurants) I add what I will eat and put…

  • Baby steps it will be. Your so right about the ingredients in food, I look at labels and there are so many words I never heard of.. so I don't buy it. I have to take it easy, I am getting frustrated, but won't give up.

  • You were on too low of a diet plan. I am on 1200 but don't lose anything. My osteoarthritis keeps me from exercising a lot on machines.. but I would like to know what a elliptical machine is, maybe that would be good for my knees also. thanks

  • I'm not hungry at 1200 calories. But the scale just won't budge.
    in How many calories? Comment by morey235 February 2016
  • chulipa…. I also have a hard time once in awhile to get to 1200calories, and sometimes eat less. They say this isn't good for you to eat less.

    in Calorie Count Comment by morey235 February 2016
  • That makes sense, I never even seen the recipe builder on this site. I will look now, thanks again for help.
    in Calorie Count Comment by morey235 February 2016
  • thanks, I'm learning that now about homemade. I did make the food, but your right, other people may put more ingredients into there's. So not a good idea.
    in Calorie Count Comment by morey235 February 2016
  • Now I get it. Sorry it takes me awhile. I am starting to go over the food list better. I do usually use the generic and homemade from the list. I will pay more attention to it. I have also found that some of the food on the list is not the correct information. thank you for your help and explanation.
