Oh-Em-Gee! Beechers gluten free Mac and Cheese is my birthday treat every year. And an occasional treat on my unbirthdays too. It is AMAZING stuff. A bit expensive for a frozen Mac and cheese. But worth it.

@adventurista mentioned groups. Here’s three groups, and one challenge that you might want to have a look at. https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/1772-type-2-diabetes-support-group https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/141248-disability-chronic-illness-fitness-and-weight-management-we-are-here-we-can-do-this…

We keep some snacks in the car for this sort of thing. Meal replacement shakes are not tempting enough, but just right when needed. I also like single serve tuna packets, the kind with the crackers included are good if gluten isn’t an issue. One thing I used to love to pick up at an Asian market where I used to live is…

Recognizing that you struggle with emotional eating is a great first step. Well done there. If you’re still struggling, you may wish to consider discussing this with a therapist. But in the meantime, there are some things you can try. Journaling helps some people. I use sugar free gum, or some other types of things meant…

Solidarity. Have had that happen before. It’s awful.

Or the responder could have not assumed I was being rude and just said they didn’t have the information at hand. 🤷🏼♀️

I don’t think that people who don’t struggle with thyroid issues really grasp this. When I’m low I can feel it. My entire life is like everything is experienced while I’m living in a swimming pool of thick pudding. Every movement is a struggle. Thoughts are like I’m halfway asleep. Walking anywhere is like an Olympic…

OK. I’m in! For inspiration I would like to recommend the YouTube channel ProWalks Great for people who do treadmill or stationary bike riding. A gentle and otherwise kinda’ boring workout on the treadmill can be transformed into walking through Milan in the evening, or a rowdy day on the beach in Rio de Janero. Wanna…

Well, I’m not a stoic. As for limitations? It is definitely helpful not to just give up. But there is a limit to not accepting limitations. We do get older (if we’re lucky) Our bodies do eventually break down. A typically healthy youth should probably feel well nearly 100% of the time. However we are not all young. We are…

Chairs that look like Easter eggs? Reminds me of the game Animal Crossing. I wonder if the staff here plays on their free time?

Someone makes some random claim about a news report on an online forum. Me. “I sure would love to see that! Have you got more information?” Them: “Rude. Condescending. Google it yourself!” Sigh 1) Google results are not the same for everyone. The results are filtered by what you have previously searched for, and other…

I was in a car accident six months ago. I’m just getting to the point where grocery shopping doesn’t kick my (kitten) These things take forever… Solidarity

Excellent progress!

I buy my gluten free Oreos in single serve packs with two Oreos in each pack. Problem solved.

Don’t quit. When you have a rough patch, it’s ok to slow down and shift your focus. Ask questions here, etc. But don’t quit.

Entitled? Acceptable? I don’t understand your question here. Disability is what it is. It is, in my opinion, best to just deal directly with the circumstances we have.

I didn’t exercise yesterday either. Long day caring for my husband. Let’s get back at today!

Long day yesterday. Took husband to the VA. New gerontologist seems good. The usual stuff. Walked a mile through their hallways. Only recorded part of that since I forgot I could set my watch to do that indoors. 🤦🏼♀️ Husband needed a blood draw, and got a very new phlebotomist, still in training. She poked him twice and…

Not current. From yesterday morning.

::shrug:: A claim was made. I simply asked for more information.

I strongly suggest you discuss this with an endocrinologist.

Hello a welcome to MFP. What are your interests and goals? I have found it helps to have friends who share a few commonalities.

Welcome Paul! I’m guessing from your picture and your stats that you’re rather tall?

That’s a case by case basis. Not everyone can get to the point where they can stop taking medication, even with prefect behavior and diet. (Note: I am not saying behavioral changes aren’t ever necessary , they often are) Different people are different. Genetics plays a huge role, but there are other factors also. For…

You really need to give us more to go on. Are you looking to eat healthier? Build muscle mass? Drop 10 pounds? Drop 150 pounds? Are you disabled? Diabetic? Struggling with thyroid issues? How about your general diet? All fast food and microwave meals? Do you have an eating disorder? (That’s one a professional really needs…

To be fair, considering the problems in the past with spammers pretending to be friends for various nefarious purposes, it’s probably best that adding friends means jumping through a few hoops.

Thanks. Glad to be back. Computer died. Stress got me for a while. I backslid a bit. But I am back. NuStep enthusiast still! Yeah. It’s an ad from Muskrat’s Twitter. You never click on a Twitter ad these days. They are all sketch A(kitten)

Would love to see those reports if you happen to have them handy.

To quote the deli patron in When Harry Met Sally: l’ll have what she’s having! 🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸

Burnout is real. It’s important to care for yourself as best as you can and let it go through whatever phases it may. Sometimes it’s just a short time, but other times burnout can last a very long time. I don’t say that to discourage anyone, just to say it can be normal. You can’t pour from an empty cup. Speak to a…
