It is being billed through insurance. Probably through Medicare. I wonder if they will try to run it through Medicaid. It will be interesting to see. I will take the offer, just to see what it is, and anything like MFP. Had to vent for some reason. You all bring up valid points, since you all have been through it. I am…

It actually costs nothing to me, but I have told him and the dietician about MFP, and that it was my preference. I begin to wonder whether he actually meant to send a 'sales' message. I've been wondering what was meant by a CGM, and a wireless scale. I know it's like the Freestyle Libre 2, but I would have to foot the cost…

That is awesome!!! I am proud of you!

I have a goal finally! It's 2024 based, but the calendar isn't out yet. I have motivation to drive me to that goal. I will be relearning how to swim, bike, and run to prepare for my first sprint triathlon. It's 750 Meters Swim, 13.2 Miles Bike, and 3.1 Mile Run. I am not looking to win. I am looking to finish! I'm so…

Fantastic!!!!! CONGRATS!!! My mom asked me if I was going vegan, but I am afraid of the commitment. I told her that we will figure out what I'm supposed to be on when I see the dietician, because my liver is having issues (Stage 3 Liver Fibrosis) I congratulate you! Getting to 200 is a major achievement! I hope to get…

It's worth telling yourself and giving yourself reasons for the separation. You could stay in it for the social aspect. However, from personal experience, is that it takes time until you don't remember anything about it. I was a member of the LDS Church for 10 years. I was duped because all they wanted was money to build…

I am in. Will start tomorrow! Walk the dog first for 45, and then I will ride the bike for as long as I can. My food will need to increase dramatically. I will run the numbers for tomorrow. We'll see!

Interesting combos! I'd have to really figure out what I can do, since I just started walking 2 days ago. My health is garbage. I have cirrhosis of the liver, it's drug induced (as my meds are trying to kill me apparently - I'm a schizophrenic, so I have that to figure out too), but I am going to work on it. I need to read…

PAV8888, I agree with you to a limited extent. The goals are meant to be difficult in Keto. That’s what needs to be done. Yes, you may hit your goal weight quickly, emphasis on quickly, but after that, work on finding out your ‘balance’. Some people go overboard and stay at the beginning, under 20g carbs. Keto induction is…

WOW!!! If that is not inspiring, I don't know what is!

2023! Let's get Moving!

I agree with this. Back in 2000-2004, I worked at a hospital, and I was a volunteer for the dying there too. Watching the sick and dying is not easy, especially as a volunteer. Anyway, I lost a grand total of 100+ pounds from 2003 to 2004, but it was not easy to live on 1550 calories, for sure. I am now back to my…

So sorry for your loss. I, like you, am in stasis with the same issues. My four sons, all except the oldest passed. I am here to support you too!
-
As was I. The main thing I used to get from there was ready made menus. Oh well. It'll be cool though.

I will second this, and join you!

I am coming in from both FatSecret, and SparkPeople. I will also maintain the journal I have at FatSecret. After SparkPeople went downhill, I felt I had nowhere to go. But I remembered that this site exists, and so I moved back over. I cannot remember my past alias. So glad to meet you all!
