I personally did not care for the News Feed. To me it was just a bunch of clutter. It was so repetitious having to scroll through all the posts that said so and so logged in for so many days in a row or that they had completed their food and exercise diary for the day. There were many people that did post informative…

@AmberlyMarlene You hinted in your post to check back here. Thanks for coming back. This discussion has really helped me. 98 days is great. After I almost died in November of 2021, I went one day short of four months. It really does feel good. I haven't had my liver checked in a while. I had a falling out with the only GI…

@chris_in_cal Sounds good to me! I actually have quite a few clothing items that are older than most people on this site. But they're memories. You have to hold on to them. They make me smile 🙂

To all the women out there. I don't buy women's clothes. No I'm not gay (not that that would matter). It's just that a pair of women's pants have a 20" waist and 50" hips. What's up with that? Plus, I'm not sure if anyone has noticed, but the quality of women's clothing is not as good as men's clothing. And, women's…

@Betty I agree with @springlering62. Up until yesterday, I only had two MFP friends. By joining a community group, I no longer have control of whom I communicate with. Not enough time! Also, I was involved in a few community discussions. But I never got notifications of new content unless I actually went to the community…

How long did it take you to lose 9 lbs? In my experience, GoLo is a scam. Save your money!

@Mo__Mo Thanks for the suggestions. I actually tried Wellbutrin back in the 90's. It was prescribed to help me quit smoking. But it didn't help. I finally quit smoking in 2007 with the help of Chantix. I don't understand how it works. But it is amazing. My husband and I both quit at the same time and neither of us have had…

I just realized that! They are alphabetized when you click on "Add Food" then "Recipes"
-
@kates63 I'm not an expert. But I can't see any way to alphabetize them. What I have noticed is if you edit a recipe and then save it, it will go to the top of the list. Depending on how many recipes you have, it could be tedious. But you could go to the recipe starting with the highest letter in the alphabet (say zucchini…

@AnnPT77 No problem Ann. I just feel that I eat enough food. I get plenty of protein and fiber. I do eat somewhat Low Carb-High Fat. I usually sleep until 7am or later. I usually don't eat breakfast until around 10am. I drink some coffee, watch some TV, work in the kitchen or on the computer in the morning. So I'm really…

@AnnPT77 I feel perfectly fine eating 1000 to 1200 calories a day. I'm not hungry and I have plenty of energy. I also sleep well at night. My daily meals contain plenty of protein, moderate carbs & fats. I don't eat many grains. Not that I have a problem with them. I just don't like them. My husband and I don't like rice…

I'm 66 and 5'3". I'm fairly active but I have not been regularly exercising. MFP suggested 1200 calories a day for me. I usually eat between 1000 and 1200. I have my protein set at 20% which is 60g per day. But I usually end up eating around 25% protein. I have my carbs set at 30%. But I usually eat less than 30%. The…

Are you sure it didn't say 32%?

@Tango_Bravado I eat Fage Total 2% Plain Greek Yogurt. It doesn't taste as sour to me as some brands. And, it is very high in protein. Do read the labels. Some brands have half of the protein as others. I'm not sure what brands you have where you live. But as another person mentioned, your tastebuds do change. So after a…

@Adventurista - It's going good. For a while, I was having difficulty just getting to Day 1 Alcohol Free. But I got past that. I'm no longer afraid of quitting (for fear of withdrawals). I no longer have to have it! Day 1 was April 7th. I went 6 days and then slipped up and drank just a few drinks the next day (after…

@4tammysstone - I'm presently only 10lbs down from my heaviest weight. So I currently don't have any clothes that are too large. What I intend to do as I lose weight is keep the clothes that are one size too big. But, donate any clothes that are two sizes or more too big. I know that we could gain again and wish we had…

Lookin' good!

Hi @ByeByeToDiabetes Congrats on the 7lb weight loss and normal fasting glucose level. Personally I would stick with the Mediterranean diet. It's easy to follow. It gives you a choice of a wide variety of foods and healthy fats and moderate protein are good. Don't be afraid of fat. We were programmed for years to eat…

BTW - Today is Day 4 Alcohol Free 😀 I can't believe I was having such a difficult time. After Day 1, it's been fairly easy. I know that after a while, I'll be tempted to have "just a few". But I have to remember that it wouldn't stop after "just a few". And my liver really needs some rest and recuperation!
-
@ByeByeToDiabetes I just noticed your post. So I went to the medical center patient portal. And my A1C was 4.8%. So that's good news!
