  • Hi everyone, I'm returning to MFP after several years off ....... delighted to be among "peers" here. I really have to get back into shape - regain muscle and fit back into my clothes. L0L! And my doggy needs to lose a few pounds too so he and I will be on this journey together. My challenge now is to stop snacking and…
  • Wow! absolutely stunning! Congrats! The venue is a beautiful compliment to how great both of you look. Where is that? So happy for you. Enjoy the journey together!
  • Wow! Your grit and determination are really inspiring! I looked at the photos. Just .. wow ! Like you, I don't care about the lbs, but gaining muscle and being leaner. I'm only 5't tall too, and small boned so it only takes small portions to get up to my BMI. My worry, at my age (in my 60's) is flabby skin and getting rid…
  • Me too! Happy to What's App.
  • Thanks, GymGoddess for the tips on water, casein protein and collagen. I'll add those. I'm glad that murphy2020 asked this question. I'm in my late 60's (how did that happen?!) and have enjoyed snacking way to much during quarantine plus my metabolism certainly has slowed down.Yikes! So with that combination, my tummy at…
  • Tim, would it work for you to buy yourself a small refrigerator that is just for you? Buy a used one (thus cheaper, often found on Craigslist) and stock it with things that are only for you. Fill it full of carrots, apples, other low calorie but crunchy snacks. This way every time you open the door for a snack you aren't…
  • Hi PremGandhi - thanks so much for the info! You are right. I should have noted that I need to lose "just plain ole fat!" as well. L0L! And don't worry too much about me gaining tons of weight. I tend to freak once I get a comfy, rotund tummy and slim back down. Just takes longer now that I'm a senior citizen (how did that…
  • My basics are that I am a senior citizen, live in Hawaii. I'm 5' tall and needing to build up muscle and lose visceral fat in legs and abdomen. My weight is considered clinically "low" but it is obvious to me that inches, not lbs has to be my criteria. Definitely a round tummy that was not there last year and my "whoops-…
  • Njuzu - very happy to have you as my buddy! I'm not too familar with how to do things in Community. How do I "add" someone and what does that mean? Your IMF is very strict. How is it working for you and how do you feel?
  • Hi Kixton. Thrilled to have you as my buddy. Is there a way that we can private message via MFP? That we can share email addresses if you prefer. You may be like me - preferring to be a bit more private for our details and because email is sometimes easier to keep up with.

  • OK. Can't help myself weighing in here both as a user of a local gym AND as a dog behavior counselor and dog sports competitor. I love dogs. My own dogs are my family members and sports partners. Based on what I know of dogs, NO dog should be subjected to a gym environment with the following exception. If there is a…
  • Hi, I"m 67 and excited to have you all as my accountability buddies! After my hip replacement I discovered the joys of snacking all day long. Dawned on me that I now need to work off some visceral fat in the abdomen and would love to lose some of the "cushioning" in the hips and thighs. I'm trying a 8/16 Intermittent…
  • Mauanawili in Kailua Hawaii! Anyone else from Hawaii?
  • Hi "Hello Again" Love your moniker! That's me too! Back on the path to fitness we go!
