Here I go: Please no harsh judging. I’ve always been thin, it’s my body type but gained weight over the past few years. I think why, no not age but just crappy eating and drinking. Always have worked out but not like I should this past year, let COVID rule my life, ugh. I’m fasting 16:8 to 18:6 Clean Eating but may slip…

Husband and I are in. We’ve drank way too much this past year! Better health is my goal.

Orange County, Ca

Thanks. Sole F85 is actually what I’m looking at.

Would love to join this group if possible. I just turned 56 on the July 25th and I wanted 5 stupid pounds off by my day. However, I got in my own selfs way, so maddening!!! I’ve always been fairly thin but when I hit 50 I’m fighting the hormone weight gain.

Wow you girls are my twin daughters

@ BigNate17 Thank You for responding and sharing your thoughts. I'm feeling a tad overwhelmed by everyone's responses. Fortunately, I'm not a stupid person regarding exercise but not the greatest when it comes to my own nutrition. I'm learning.

@SezxyStef Thanks for your response and advice. Actually my trainer is good it's me that hasn't really paid attention at what she has been suggesting up until now. I've had several major surgeries which set me back and instead of working out harder and watching diet I choose to do Coolsculpting and now have fat pockets on…

@TheWJordinWJordin Thank you for your response. I agree with good fats, just don't want to overdue it.

@kimny72 Thanks for your thoughts. I agree I need to watch calories as well as add protein. I think my hardest obstacle will be trying to eat clean and cut wine.

@capaul42 Thank you for your response. Your thoughts are exactly how my trainer believes. I've been with her for atleast 5 years and most of our nutritional talks have gone in one ear and out the other but obviously I listen a little

@gebeziseva thanks for your response. I can do 100g but if I do my weight 126 ib it's very difficult. Y other challenge is trying to cut carbs as much as I can. I love pasta, rice and breads, ugh

Thanks everyone for taking the time to help explain. I've got to get my yoyo dieting in check and yes I do drink wine at night @multifitnesspaul which is not helping my sugar intake.

Jeez Louise, I thought I was the only one who is back. Embarrassed to even be here. I don't have major weight issues but I'm so sick of always worrying about weight gain. When I stay on Myfitnesspal I always succeed and seem to be much more content with myself. Would love new friends to help me stay focused and less…

Hi, I'm 52 years old, 5'6, weigh 120, small framed and my body fat is 20%. I agree with robininfl. I'm not in any competitions or any form of a bodybuilder. I have always worked out or atleast active in my daily life. I think genetics plays a huge roll in my body makeup. I feel very strongly that you need to find what…

I personally at this moment don't know my accurate sodium number but I can tell you my body is extremely sensitive to sodium. I recently came across a website when I wanted to make a low sodium soup. Processed soup is the worst for me. Take a look at www.drgourmet.com and go under special needs, low sodium recipes. I have…

Awesome story and comeback. Welcome back!!!

Interesting question since I just read an article in Daily Mail this morning. Article states dieters should weigh themselves everyday if they want to keep the pounds off. I have always weighed myself daily, every morning and I can honestly say it has made me crazy a few more times than I would like to fess up too. I am…

Hi, We're also very similar. I on the other hand am 52 with 2 girls, 25 and 27 years old. I've always been in shape and have always exercised burn at 49 I had a few obstacles that blocked my path. The beginning of this year my life goal is to get the 8 ponds off me and change my thought process. I'm watching what I eat but…

Hi, Am fairly new to MFP and am also looking for support as well. Just need to feel happier, look healthier and especially become stron in all aspects of my life.
