Too skinny!! In the after pic they’re just bones.

I also should point out that the container doesn’t have to be a actual bento box. Any shallow container with a lid will do. Online searches will have you down any variety of rabbit holes.

I’ve had lots of success in the past with BENTOS, the Japanese style lunches. They are structured for variety, portion control, and nutrition. Not only that, but they’re also designed to be eaten at room temp and incorporate anti-bacterial approaches to ensure food safety. The basic premise is to choose foods from five…

Thank you all for the warm welcome 🙏 🙃 I’m taking suggestions to heart lately, even though I’ve heard so many times before. Today they’re sticking. For example: I have PT 2xwk and normally take elevator. Since getting on MFP, I’ve taken the stairs and I swear I can hear a heavenly choir sing when I summit to the second…

Ok I’m done lurking - I figured I should introduce myself before things get awkward (if only in my head). I’m April, 52, n00b, been on MFP six days. Situated in PNW, near the capital. I am semi-retired 2+ years, not by choice. By now, if I was reading this, I’d be thinking “yes, but I want details about your fitness…

Homemade, lacto-fermented sauerkraut. Incredible stuff!! Kills the urge to graze and feeds your gut trillions of beneficial microbes that heal the gut which has an incredible ripple effect. I grab a forkful and munch. Instant and lasting gratification. It’s my secret weapon.

I had back fused (C8-T8) in October and I’m pretty much at ground zero for any exercise. My stubby legs have always loved running. The rest of me…

What is the downside (no pun intended) to inverted postures? Do they make floaters worse, cause them, or all of the above?

April, 52, from Washington. This is my best effort to date to adhere to food logging. I feel different this time around, as if it might actually take hold and allow my other efforts to manifest positive outcomes. Glad to be here. Us old fogies need to stick together!

Hi to all! I’m April and I have 150 pounds to shed and leave behind. I’m really terrible at a few things (hence the current weight problems): I suck at tracking and logging food, being consistent, defeating apathy, being creative with food, exercising, being social, and making friends. The good news is I am up for…

Thank you to those that took time to write helpful tips and suggestions. They are all extremely valuable and I am writing into a note to make my lock screen as constant reminders. It is nice to get different perspectives- always something more to learn.
