  • Good Evening everyone, sounds like a productive day for a lot of us. This morning started off for me on the wrong foot but I shook it off. I'm facing many changes coming into 2023 and many awakenings as well. I'm grateful to have found this place again where everyone has been so welcoming and kind....... Now that being, I…
  • Ahhh I think I've found my way back. I've been back on MFP for some time but am now just getting back into the message boards. I would say I'm new but I'm not as I've been on MFP before and lost my way. Now things have changed. I have chosen to take my life back so to speak in the sense of emotional, spiritual, and yes now…
  • For the past 8 or 9 years, I KNEW I needed to drop weight. Before Covid I joined a gym and also worked with my doc on trying to find some meal plan that would work NOTHING did I signed up for various apps and then quit them including MFP several times. I gave up on myself and then the world shut down fast forward to the…
  • Be kind to yourself, find something that works for you, and stick to it. Don't hop from one plan to the other. My doc had been trying to convince me to start back on doing macros again with my food. I frowned but talking with the trainer I had I realized its about moderation and measuring and not so much about what's in…
  • Its normal for what they are doing. But you as the trainee also need to know that when they ask how does that feel or are you ok you need to let them know how your feeling or thinking about the exercise. My trainer bumped up my weights which I took on as a challenge. Upper body phew even with a machine I kicked my own butt…
  • 2.5 mile walk this morning before the rain moved in. Its how I start the day and clear my mind if I'm bogged down.
  • Greetings everyone I'm Chris and I live in the Merrimack Valley in Massachusetts more specifically about 30 minutes outside of Boston. I've been trying to get my fitness life plan so to speak back in sync and now I've worked out a way to get my meal plan in sync. I used to be a member of MFP a looooooong time ago and just…
  • My trainer got me back on MFP so here's my spin.... Before I was in the gym meaning I signed back up In late Sept/Oct... I was walking and by walking I was walking 5-6 days a week .... I built myself up so I am doing a 5k a day. In past years I'd end up injuring myself. Now its about pacing myself and listening to my…
  • Good Morning everyone.. Greetings from Massachusetts . I just wanted to pop in and say hi....Been reading through the posts and found this one and said yep this will do :) ..... Height 5'4" SW 265 CW 256 GW 200 ( will re-evaluate when I get there if I want to drop more) What I posted regarding my goal weight when I started…
  • I fall into the 50ish category and would be happy to loose 50ish pounds. Seriously, I've used MFP previously but stepped back from it years ago but here I am again working out at my gym walking etc etc.... I'm seeing it's not the lack of exercise that kills me but what I choose to put in my body.... Looking forward to…
  • Keep this in mind .....You've done it once it will happen again unless you consult with and do the strengthening exercises.... From what I recall hiking is not on that list......Let me share this with you... I've had history (over 30 years) with both knees both the patella and the joints dislocating.....I woke up two years…
