Thanks Marianne. Therapy hurts! But it's what got me started here and at the gym.

Feel free to add me as a friend. I'm 67, just lost 12 lbs with 45 to go. Age is a number that doesn't define you! Be gentle with yourself but be tough on those calories

Well, maybe I didn't do it right, but I started with logging and nothimg else for the first couple of weeks just to see how my nutrients were. Then I started making adjustments to balance carbs/protein/fat. And the weight started coming off - 12 lbs so far, 45 to go. Then I increased my exercise because I feel so much…

Moe's Taco Salad, but I didn't eat breakfast. Dinner will be a problem, as that was my carbs & fat for the day. Lol

@Monklady123 What about the Birds Eye Steamfresh microwave bags of veggies? That's my go-to source for veggies, and I eat probably two bags a day. [/quote] Woohoo! So glad you said this ! My fav veggie source too, especially the protein blends. 6 minutes and dinner is ready.

Withings Pulse Ox. It measures steps, distance, calories burned, sleep - all accurately. It measure elevation sometimes. It also measures heart rate but you have to pop the unit off the wristband to do it. I bought it because it syncs with my Withings scale and both sync with MFP.

"Fat takes up more room than muscles, yes, but a pound of muscle and a pound of fat weigh the same as a pound of feathers. :)" Umm, yup, I did say that totally backwards!

hmmm, sounds like someone saw me at the gym last night. Just joined & had my first session with personal trainer. At the end of the workout, I was standing in front of a mirror with trainer doing exercises with dumbbells when I noticed 2 young men (buffed out!) sitting on a bench almost directly in my line of sight. They…
