Ann, I remember you from a while ago, especially after you and another guy (a Penn State graduate, I think) left comments on my post about nutrition, fitness, and cholesterol. When you mentioned in the quoted section about hardly ever using the newsfeed, I completely agreed after realizing that my daily logging over the…

jsmestflowers, "I don't care" and "execute the plan" may sound robotic to the ears; however, after watching the methodical pre-game routine of Tom Brady from the endzone in the 2005 season as he kept throwing quick slants over and over and over while the Steeler team ran a multitude of random plays, I came away with more…

Impressive degree of detailed reading required to sift through the actual scientific study, which the journalist deftly summarizes. So far, I feel great eating high-fiber foods (80+ total grams a day) after spending years feasting on Pizza Hut, Burger King, and hot wings, and oh, McDonald's 🍟 fries. The male boobs dropped…

Ann, You're on top of the most important aspect—keeping focused on the original poster's comment. When I first posted in support of the thread, I attempted, more or less successfully, to provide an anecdotal story of my own journey from those younger years to now (age 14 onwards) for illustration. As for the (your)…

Here's my fit tip for a good guage on the actual age of the body (see WorldFitnessLevel link, if viewable) https://www.worldfitnesslevel.org/#/start You probably have already heard of VO2 and that treadmill test. I recently, well, actually two or three years ago, left a soak in the sauna and drove straight to the ER after…

Penn State. I finished grad school years ago. As for protein, I'm a bit leary of asking the kidneys to do more work processing the added protein, although plant-based protein, from what I've gathered, seems much better than the other kind. In terms of goals around better body composition, I'm rather comfortable with the…

Good question. I burn over a thousand calories each day with the 20k steps, so I have to eat 3000+ calories just to maintain normal weight. Those calories push all my numbers well beyong the average in terms of grams. I rarely look at the percentages. Here's a closer look at the numbers: Fiber: 85+ grams Protein: 85 - 105…

This is a good thread of posts to skim through. I remember a jacuzzi conversation at the YMCA years ago with a fit woman who mentioned how her abs come and go after or before meals. She adamantly stated that underneath the layer of fat, I would notice nice abs hiding. Fast-forward after that chat, I took a year off and…

Ditto. I know your sunset photos will work. Although, once you gather your tribe, your private MFP feed could work as well. It's easier to see each day (for me). As for recipes, I'm sure that'll work, too. Play around and see what fits for you. 😊

Good move, Ally! I'll support keeping this near the top of the MFP feed by commenting while transitioning to a new beginning.

Here's what helped me a year ago when I was exercising indoors. I've got a YouTube channel playlist dedicated to solely to "Indoor Resources" (I link the first easy routine here) 😇👨🏾‍🎨 https://youtu.be/XvClcfVqwXA
