✅ Exercise: 75 minutes walking ✅ Calories ✅ Tracked 0 passdays used ( ) It has only been since I decided to retire that I really realized just how sedentary my job doing psychotherapy was compared to any other roles in my life.

@makattack220 @MizSpiffy I just went to read the messages from my notifications and what a coincidence--- one of the messages was about how helpful on the topic of motivation they had found James Clear. They linked this page of his on motivation. https://jamesclear.com/motivation

@MizSpiffy I am going to tell you the same thing that a person in another group just wrote, which I totally agreed with. Motivation wanes. You can´t rely on motivation to keep you at it. What you need to focus on are building habits. So my advice is use whatever amount of motivation you have and focus it on how you are…

@jmu1965 Infections can affect insulin and blood sugar measures and other measures of inflammation like c reactive protein. Actually not just the infection itself but especially the heavy duty anti-biotics needed to treat it can really affect your gut microbiome and throw off your metabolism for awhile. It is wise to…

✅ Exercise: 1 hour pickleball and walking in the park ✅ Calories ✅ Tracked 0 passdays used ( ) My NSV this month is that the results of my blood tests now show me as normal in all the measures that previously had me in the pre-diabetic range.

@kodakslim I started trying low carb last Fall after finding out my blood sugars were almost at diabetic level. I had previosuly avoided trying it due to concerns about whether it would be healthy in the long term, but it has been an exceptional good experience for me. When I do eat carbs I make sure they are ¨slow…

✅ Exercise: 10 minutes rowing, 20 minutes swimming ✅ Calories ✅ Tracked 0 passdays used ( ) How do you maintain productive eating patterns and/or get yourself on track when derailed?

✅ Exercise: 30 minutes swimming ✅ Calories ✅ Tracked 0 passdays used ( ) I try to eat below my calories and have whatever calories I burn by exercise be just a bonus.

✅ Exercise: 20 minutes pickleball ✅ Calories ✅ Tracked 0 passdays used ( ) First time back out to play pickleball in over 3 years.

@jmu1965 Have you tried kombucha? We love it and it is easy to brew. I personally love the carbonization and flavors as well as the health benefits. Since Christmas, we now have two homemade continuous brew systems of 2 gallons each so we have a continuous supply.

@jmu1965 Kefir is probably great for your recovery (I am assuming you received some pretty heavy duty anti-biotics for your sepsis) because it is a great source of probiotics. I hear it is quite easy to make your own, although I haven´t tried it due to sensitivity to milk. I would encourage you to think about consuming it…

Hi, I am Susan. I live in a rural area in Kansas. I am back for my sixth month with UAC. I have now lost 50 pounds, and am in Onederland since actively tracking with MyFitnessPal starting last August. Like many others, it is not the first time I have lost a lot of weight. I have lost a lot and gained it back twice in my…

I signed up again for this great group. I think it is my 5th or 6th month. It is so well organized and well lead. The format makes it simple to post brief posts daily for accountability and there are also opportunities for learning and sharing. This group is really helping me achieve my goals.
