  • I am new to keto but not MFP. I just heard about keto a few days ago but don't have enough of the right kinds of foods in the house to go full keto so I'm just going to ease into it until I can manage to get to the store. By ease into it I mean I will continue to eat carbs, although in way smaller amounts, until I've…

  • There are some excellent YouTube videos that require no equipment and very little space -- cardio, calisthenics, yoga -- whatever you like, just do a search. I'm over 70 so I do Silver Sneakers. My daughter likes a certain yoga instructor, can't remember the name. As for the timing, I'm not sure it matters, just whatever…

  • I was a member years ago, counted calories, worked out at a gym with a private trainer and after 6 months hadn't lost a single pound so I gave up. I'm 71 now and just discovered keto.

  • I had a geothermal heat pump installed in 2007. The house already had superior insulation and was fairly airtight. I keep the thermostat at 74F the year round. The heat pump is on a separate electric meter and we're only charged from October to March. Average bill is around $20 per month.

  • My husband bought a case of Thin Mints last month and put them in the freezer. He does this every year and the cookies last until the end of the year. He's stingy and doesn't let me have any. I usually buy a few boxes for myself but this year I didn't get out and about while GS were selling them. I don't drive in snow.…

  • Hi. I just joined this group today. I'm 67 and had a total knee replacement last summer. I've been wanting to lose weight for a long time but was having mobility problems. I'm moving a lot better now. The doctor said I still need to strengthen the muscles supporting my knee but I've already done all the physical therapy…

  • Healthy eating is very individual. For me it's anything I'm not allergic to. I have multiple food allergies and my diet looks very strange and unbalanced to most people. The foods I have most trouble with are grains, fruits and vegetables.
