Wondering if this group is still active? I am heading into my 70s this summer. Want to approach aging in my best health and with resilience, knowing that setbacks can be just around the corner. Looking for a supportive group interested in improving our fitness levels and helping us rebound from inevitable challenges as we…

Thanks again, everyone!

@ csplatt. I average @ 3.2 mph in my hilly neighborhood and I walk 3-5 miles each day that I can get out (shooting for 20 miles/week). For example, MapMyWalk told me today I walked 4.52 miles @ 18.4 minutes/mile average pace in 84:27 minutes, 10.2K steps, elevation gain 246, calories 424. If I get in my full 5 miles…

I love my new digital scale for weighing food. I am really surprised at how much more an ounce of whatever is...I think I undercounted often, which, given that I am shooting for a minimum of 1200 calories, probably contributed to that fainting spell. Plus my walking, weight training and pilates. Don't over do, I know, get…

Thank you very much for sharing your weight loss journeys with me. I will follow that link on measuring--that's always good to keep in check. Also will experiment with eating part, all, or none of the net. Consistency is a factor I haven't used yet. I believe MapMyWalk readings to be accurate because they also track my…

Mine used to sync but all of a sudden, no more. I connected, but it doesn't show up.

As part of my commitment to good health I have stopped the alcohol habit. It was part of every celebration and had become part of my daily routine. It has not been hard until today. Gratefully I made it through a holiday with lots of emotions that tempted me to succumb to old comforts. I allowed the emotions to pass…

Howdy! I set a weekly fitness goal of walking 20 miles/week over 5 days. Happy to report I walked 25 in 6 days on my week 1. Yahoo! Motivation is high. I'm chasing a carrot in that I am turning 70 in August. I told myself I would set the goal of losing 20 pounds from wherever I am on my bday within the following half…

Hello Barbie and crew...I am returning to MyFitPal. I have lost 13 pounds in three years (a bumpy road but overall stable) and have rejoined MFP in earnest. Can't beat its ease of logging food, tracking nutrition intake and connecting to exercise apps. This time I am looking for community support. I have learned some great…

Hi Kathy. Mirtri, I love what you said. I just posted to Brian (Bdiddy) who also is returning after dropping MFP. I am trying to consolidate lessons I have learned from other programs. Life keeps presenting new challenges, or another way of looking at it is that when we begin to establish a new habit we get presented with…

Hey Brian. I figure a good habit is one worth going back to--and this is it! Fifty pounds seems like a lot (I'm after a 40 pound weight loss, so I know) but if we break them down to smaller goals our goals are within reach. I've lost 13 pounds since starting MFP three years ago. Life gets in the way, I try something…
