Sunday B) Just for today :smiley: 7 things 2 DO in the next week: * I need to find my old old journal of meetings. (I take notes on ideas and doodle to pay attention; otherwise I knit; or lately I've been listening to walking...which is why this is a transfer from 10 days ago.) * I need to get a sponsor. Either local or…

Fri-Walked sister's dog for 40 min; Sat-mowed side-lawn with rotary mower; binged a bit on more corn chips late Friday (up too late...ate) and late enough I counted most as Saturday, which then made it hard to not go over my calories, before the exercise cals. In reviewing the week: BASE: 1650 Sat: 1647 Sun: 1438 Mon: 1701…

13 days today...my lucky number!

Nutrition: (Pre-) Tracking 1200-1650 is daily goal; more planning esp. batch-cooking; Deal with binge urges by: movement first, (10 min of marching in place often diverts it), journaling feelings 5 min. second (often eating my feelings and confronting it will at least help me understand) and listing healthy options third;…

Long term: Good Health, attractiveness, Easier living 8-week goal: 5% would be great; sticking to whole 8 weeks would be amazing; Able to go for a walk without panting or needing to stop after a short distance Why: Health and Wellness; Joy in Being More Fit Movement: Up every hour; 10 minutes daily minimum; 5 days a week:…

Hi, Selene here in Michigan (have been 3moons & sparknb from sparkpeople); have lost and regained same 50 pounds (need to lose 200) since I don't stick with it. 5% loss would be great kick-off for 2025. I have no real health problems yet other than hypothyroidism from my 20's which was severe enough to cause premature…

Great Ideas! I especially like the decluttering & protein ones, & get outside is good too :smiley:

I came here looking for invites also

Thurs...90 min mowing lawn (with a rotary mower...no battery/gas; just me and the blades (which have needed sharpening)...it was killer cardio) Ended up eating double serving of my snack that I've been craving (really I want nachos...but easiest was some reduced-fat (slightly lower calories) cheese (for protein...I was…

Wed: made up for sedentary...moved for four hours today, 3 of it grocery shopping at a big box store that competes with Walmart (Meijers), and might have been dragging there because I was tired after walking the dog "Garbanzo" at the SPCA :wink: :smiley: for an hour; also staying on track, under 1650 :smile:

Mon-Tues post: Got caught up over the weekend on 90 in 90, and did long-ish walk on Sunday, and was doing some non-OA but strong self-dev (shadow work) stuff on Mon & Tues via an online conference, some of which re-inforced OA. I crammed a week's content into about 24 hours, pulling an all nighter. Was a bit sedentary…

Read B)

Hi, new to the group, and back on mfp; Started moving some (went for fall walka) and mindfully (mostly) :* :D ;) eating and logging food (& drinking water) on Autumn Equinox; have logged and increased water (& caught myself several times realizing again that I eat when I'm thirsty, but had stopped hydration habit). My Oct.…

Oct 1: Just Do It

Wow y'all are SO inspirational! I think it's 10 for me. :)

Mini goals...coming back to mfp in autumn...not the first time...one of my best seasons to lose...weather's nice enough, stuff to get done before winter in the yard; so...basics: more water & moving, & logging food and checking in on groups, setting up a good base level of habits; also 90 in 90

Congrats!

Hi all; I'm new to the group, long-time lesbian (almost 4 decades!). I don't drink water enough...and eat my thirst (among other issues). Hot/cold herbal tea is my go-to, usually non-sweetened, occasionally with stevia, monk fruit or other natural sweeteners. Saw an article about infused herbal waters that replace…

Whichever team...Back again after a couple years away (was on this on original sparkpeople, then here at mfp) under different profile names (sparknb & then 3moons)

So far, the weekend is going slow, though my stomach had issues midday today, Saturday, after a bit of a junky thing from the morning (& I was going to eat my regular whole grain bread & nut butter but then ooj) so then didn't eat anything until dinner, which was big since I had only had less than 200 cals other than the…

Thanks @AG_Lake :smile: I will check that out in the next week. So far, I've been doing the podcasts as I walk, so it's a 2-fer :wink: My sister at one point invested in the big book, etc. Then dropped out. So I inherited them. They are in the basement somewhere, it's on my list for this next week. I'm going to start…

Daily Check-in: New-ish to OA, doing 90 in 90...of a sort. So far I did podcasts on steps 0-3, & then listened to a meeting last night at 3AM (US time) which was a UK meeting. Not a great connection, but I made the effort. So that counts. 7 things 2 DO in the next week: * I need to find my old old journal of meetings. (I…

Hi @AG_Lake; and anyone else. As of the Autumn Equinox, (the past Sunday) I'm a returner to MFP, mostly to track food, and also doing some OA, to help walk my path. I'm a compulsive over-eater. I have been listening to the OA steps (steps 0-3 so far) podcasts as I've been going on walks or doing yardwork, one a day. Today…

Hi everyone. I took a bit of a break for the last week from tracking & mfp & calorie counting, but I'm back and hoping that by the end of Feb, I'll be where I was a couple weeks ago. Then March is long, and warmer, and more active in the garden, (the garden Center down the block had a sign saying 25 days til spring (I…

My3: 1) got outside today 2) prepped many kiwis 3) NSV: starting to see stomach smaller & w/ stretch marks

My 3 things: 1) reached out to my friend re: going to conference 2) stayed in bounds 3) got coding done PS: SO glad your husband is doing well, Linny; cute dog & good for you for 2 hour walk...just a reminder to everyone and myself not to over-do when it feels so easy

3 things: coded, set up mom's bday (very low key, but she's still in pain), let dad sleep for better part of day (still sick)

Hello everyone! Linny, hope your husband's cardioversion puts him back into sinus rhythm. My mom's bday is today (I type this late Th, but really early Fri A.M.) She went to urgent care today, had CT. Wasn't spleen/kidney's...either internal pulled muscle, or another bout of shingles (which is super painful...she's had 2,…

Beautiful! Where is that heaven of earth & sky? Oh, and onward & downward is a great mantra/inspiration/affirmation!

Good luck Linny! My dad has A.Fib, as one of his first contraindications. He had a few ablations back in his early 60s & has been on meds for decades, still kicking, so passing on some of our family's luck to you. After one of his last ablations, he overdid it, chopping a tree down, {shaking my head even now remembering…
