Hi skf1201! I travel to Kearney NE about once a week to visit my Dad from Northwest Missouri! You are not kidding this winter has been nuts! Great job getting out and moving today before the next round hits! Hopefully a better week for all battling winter next week!

Hi all. Got home from my friend’s funeral. Made huge dinner for visiting brother in law. He canceled because he’s afraid of possible snow. Had a little bout of emotional eating but have recovered. With not too much damage hopefully. Every one have a good rest of the day where you are.

Go squirley! U can do it! I am breaking it down into small steps! So want to get down there!

Happy Birthday Barbara! Machka9 love your pictures! Going this morning to funeral of friend from childhood......who I reconnected with when we were both doing chemo. Dread going but must. Janet in Eastern MO will hopefully not send you our weather! Blizzard hitting tonight with high of 3 tomorrow! March indeed in like a…

Janet - hopefully sending sun to your side of the state! We had it again today! Still cold but sunshine was awesome! Barbie I like your new word also! Pause - we all need to apply it! Jacque welcome I am just starting too. It’s fun to just read and put the threads together as the gals all post!

Mari -,just some quick ideas... Could you do seated weight lifting? Or weight lifting in general? These gals were talking about the book Strong Women Stay Young. I bought it and the exercises are not hard at all and you can start the program where you are in regard to your fitness. Very simple to do, twice a week. And the…

Hi all! It’s sunny today in our corner of Missouri and it feels wonderful! Only 24 degrees but we will take it! Enjoy reading all of your posts especially the suggestions for activity!! Do any of you battle hypothyroidism? After battling a large lymphoma on my thyroid (successfuly!) I am left with hypothyroidism and I…

Hi all! Hope everyone having a great day. We traveled 4 hrs west yesterday to Kearney NE to see my Dad in hospital. Road recumbent bike at hotel last nite, duh, didn’t pay attention to brand but seat was much better than what I have at home! Love the dog pics, everyone and for everyone battling family issues- so sorry!…

Kevrit! Good grief! B careful hope the mammo was ok! KJ - ignore the husband’s family. I agree with whoever said lose the phone. I know that’s hard but can u block them for a bit if u need to keep phone close? When u can’t hear the hurtful comments, it’s wonderful! I feel for u because that’s the kind of stress that makes…

Good morning everyone! SW 247 GW 147 CW 234 Feb 11 239 Feb18 235 Feb 25 234 Congratulations Brown Kitty! So exciting!! Every one have a great week!

Hi all. So enjoy reading your posts! On the bike seat - I totally agree with “its the size of the seat” we have one that is well padded but the size and angle of seat back make it very uncomfortable. It’s almost a 90 degree angle from back to seat. If my rear was smaller might help. It’s 15 degrees here tonight in…

Rita thanks for sharing the info in your daily intake! Very insightful!

Ok! Encouraged to hear that! I am doing the same!

Hi everyone! Kevrit- I missed it- what is your new eating plan??? More snow here today! One of my high school friends, who 35 years later we both ended up in chemo at the same time....passed last night. I ate 3 frosted sugar cookies without thinking about it. Just mindlessly ate. So starting over again today! It helps me…

This is fabulous! Congrats to you and thanks so much for sharing this journey for all of us starting out!!! It’s really something to think about - start now - so that a year from now we can see a difference in our own health!!!

Hi everyone! So enjoying reading all of your posts! Still catching up. Ordered the Strong Women Stay Young book last night. Look forward to having a new read while we are buried in snow here in Missouri. Have a great rest of the day wherever u r!

Hi everyone. My name is Holly, have been on MFP for a week. I am glad to find an active thread to read! Will read today to get caught up! Thanks for being here!

Tammy how is it going?? I think many of us are in the same boat as you. Sometimes my battle, not to sound dramatic, is literally getting to the next hour without eating. Trying to change my “comfort” from food to something else. We are slowly killing ourselves when we medicate with good. Not saying you are doing this, but…

Hi. I felt the same as you! Our gym offered several personal trainers that I could choose from- all completely flexible with amount of sessions I wanted. I actually chose with out knowing, a football strength and conditioning coach (I’m a stay at home mom) and we were a great fit! He showed me how to lift, I counseled him…
