  • @Fitzh2o1960 - hope you and all the new posters are finding good life style changes. @Jthanmyfitnesspal - From my hubby’s unrecognized diagnoses for years I understand the frustration you must be dealing with. Hope you find answers soon. @AnnPT77 - I always enjoy your flower pics. Wish I could stroll thru your garden. Had…

  • @AnnPT77 - Yep, basket weaving is my favorite craft, posted a picture of my e-bike with handle bar and market baskets earlier. Before we downsized after my hubby got sick I had a great craft studio filled with reed and crafts of various fiber. Now I just order a kit from Etsy and make a gift or two or a basket for…

  • @AnnPT77 Thank you once again, your insight and experience are truly helpful to so many on this thread. I'm headed to our gym today for a few minutes on the cardiostrider and a slow walk on the threadmill. After that to the craft room where I'm weaving a swing handle basket for my knitting supplies. Life is good….

  • Hello, hope all are doing well and sticking to the program for good health results. I have about 3 pounds over that don't want to budge downward, I don't want anyone, especially those new to exercise make the mistake I caused myself. I've pushed myself to burn more calories for food. I did too much on the cardiostrider…

  • @Maravee2988 Ditto to just what the others have posted to tracking your event meals. I find that using the Food/Database tab with a brief description will list quite a few choices at which point I pick one on the mid to high side and plug it in. Just please be sure you're getting enough of the required daily suggestion…

  • Hello to all, hope you've been patient with yourselves as this journey is about the long haul. Got a notification of my 8th year here. Sure remember how difficult it seemed taking off those 85 pounds. Been maintaining well, other than a bit of non tracking now and then where I simply have to remember the importance of the…

  • Haven't been logging or checking in here for awhile and the extra few pounds will need to come down again, no worry it keeps me at maintenance. Lots of reading to catch up on, so nice to see this thread active. Only thing I can add is how happy I was when my gastro Dr. told me I aged out of needing another colonoscopy, I'm…

  • I'm glad to see this thread active, however after returning from vacation (including MFP) I was surprised how many comments I had to catch up with. Had a wonderful time at the beach on Hatteras Island, NC with my kids and Grandchildren. Long walks on the beach, collecting oyster shells to decoupage as trinket dishes or…

  • Hello. Hope life is treating you all well. I'm doing ok now after a challenging month. My husband who is on a monthly chemo schedule had a stroke, came home from the hospital, immediately got covid and then I got it too. We've stayed current on vaccine so the symptoms were mild for me. Now I'm back to walking and having a…

  • Hello and hope all are doing well. I've been good and finally got my new e-bike out and about. Buying it was an exercise in patience as the first two I ordered were scam sellers (apparently a problem on Prime.) Happily the third time was a charm. Love this bike. It has 16" wheels (good for me since I keep getting shorter.)…

  • @BCLadybug888 your vacation photography is wonderful. Thank you for sharing. I'll post my new bike pic after I get it put together and out on the bike lanes.

  • Been doing good lately. I've decided to make a change in my bike. I really like my little 20" loop bike but decided I would ride more with an ebike with pedal assist for uphill areas. So it should be arriving next week. I'm busy watching YouTube videos on how to ride ebikes for seniors. I plan to continue to pedal and try…

  • Hello all. This thread is such a comfort and so very inspirational. Thanks to all who share their journey. @alteredsteve175 - glad to see you checking in and hanging in. Care giving can take it's toll. I understand and admire your never ending love. My DH has been surviving for 10 years and is now doing well with chemo…

  • Hello and glad to see this thread blooming with fun and helpful chat. I haven't checked in for a minute and wanted to say thanks to all the timeless treasures that post here. I'm turning 79 this year and due to lack of will power and not logging put on a few pounds. I've easily turned the gain around simply by doing the…

  • Hello to all and it sure is good seeing so much participation in the thread, old and new posters thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts. I haven't checked in for a long time, took some time off from tracking and of course that's never good. For those that don't remember me I'm now 77 and lost 90 lbs. After my…

  • Hello to all. Hope everyone has been happy with their food and activity choices. I've had a couple challenges, GI issues again and a fall on the treadmill. Glad to report the fall only taught me a lesson and no more than some bad bruises. Back to walking daily outside and riding my little bike around the neighborhood.…

  • Just checking in and happy to see old friends and new doing well. Here in the D.C. area the air has been smokey so I've been walking in the gym and missing being outside. Maintenance is going good, tracking early each day let's me know what my food choices for the remainder of the day will be and helps keep in feeling full…

  • Hello again, been a minute since checking in here. Glad to see many new and seasoned posters doing well and active on the thread. I'm 76 now and have been through some difficult health challenges in the last year, but after three surgeries and recuperations am feeling great. I've been on maintenance for close to a year and…
