Please do not take away the Newsfeed. It has has been instrumental to me in dealing with horrible health issues that have been tossed at me. The friends I made here encouraged me to eat right, exercise and keep on going when the going got tough. My Fitness Pal is My Fitness Family. Please don't think the Community posts…

Hello old and new friends. I hope I'm worthy of being a member of this group. I've logged over 1000 days with mfp, try darn hard to be the best I can be, including a good friend. Thanks DVDBEASTMODE for setting this up!

Trying to get this right. I looked at my log this morning and noted I missed a day. The following should be correct: April 1: 0.59 miles April 2: 1.11 miles April 3: 0.49 miles April 4: 1.56 miles April 5: 2.54 miles April 6: 1.31 miles Sorry to everyone facing summer temperatures already! We've been having alternating 70s…

Decided to give this try as per a suggestion of a friend. Last month (Feb) I set a personal goal of 30 miles (yeah, that's total miles in one month). Hahaha! Boy I am newbie! Made just over 17 miles in 1 month, I'm walking (in some hills when the snow wasn't around) ~ 3 to 3.5 mph with varying times. I have a long stride.…

I see no postings from this group. What's wrong?

Why would someone disagree to welcome? I don't get how this works.

Doc said no more isometric. I have a 5 cm ascending aortic aneurysm. 😔

Thank you for the information. I saw a specialist at Cleveland Clinic Aug 16-17. He said 1% risk of stroke and 0.5 % risk of death for me. Must be different than how your dad's was, plus I'm 67. My AAA is 5 cm. The surgeon said I could think about surgery for 6 months and retest stuff again. But it's been the same size for…

Me too. My mom lived to 95 years of age.

Did you try Noom?

Me too! How do I friend you?

I'm originally from Chicago, but lived a bunch of places. Thank you for the photo compliment. Napa Valley is also awesome. ✌

Welcome!

Debbie, Thank you for the welcome. Call me KP, nickname since high school. From Sunrise Beach, Missouri, US, on the Lake of the Ozarks. Also has beautiful sunsets.

Dragging = stress before Dr appts? I get that way.

Precious!

While being Veggie is laudable, I thought the title of the post was "Hi All - coming from Noom." I'm in the process of figuring out MFP after 1 year of Noom. Anyone else a Noom convert? What's your take on the two programs?

Never have I ever given up a dog for any reason.

I love cilantro! Does that mean I have the right or wrong genes?? Levi's are my favorite. 🤣

New Member. New to planks. Need low impact exercises, so today I tried my first planks from the Killer Core list. One each, I did them!!!

Excellent advice. Doing just that next week at the Miller Cardiology and Cardiovascular Institute at the Cleveland Clinic. THANK YOU!

Thank you for the positive information. I appreciate your support!

How true it is!

Anyone had or care for someone who had surgery for an ascending aortic aneurysm (AAA)? Open chest or endovascular? Recovery? Quality of life? How did you decide it was time for the surgery? Any diet or exercises to help? I don't know anyone who's been down this path and I'm very concerned about my longevity and quality of…

Got it 100%! Thank you!

I think I joined. But I don't get past the first screen. Where do I find the group? Thanks

How do we add friends please? Thank you!

Exercises for weight loss and flab tightening (I lost 35 pounds with Noom between Aug to Dec 2020, but then just plateaued). I can't do high impact stuff do to my ascending aortic aneurysm (balloon in big blood vessel on top of my heart). Any suggestions? Thanks

I complete a daily food diary, stick to 1200 / day or less. Exercise to my ability (balance aerobics and strength). Try to help others. I don't know how to get involved with MFP to do any if this.

Go for it! Every day a new challenge you can meet.
