[quote="19shmoo69;c-48284514"]Thursday Ice Breaker Question: If you were going to make a podcast what would it be about? [/quote] Well if it doesn't already exist (please tell me if one does, since I'm searching!): A video podcast/Youtube channel with programs on Disability and Health, Wellness, Diet & Fitness. There's so…

Thanks! I miss my able-bodied days when I could walk 5 miles through my suburban neighborhood and the local park. And in 1980, I joined my fellow New Yorker's walking EVERYWHERE when the NYC Transit went out on strike for 12 days! Every one of those days I walked from 15th St to 79th Street to get to work, and the same…

You should realize that circumstances in your life may change over time, leading to successful weight loss. I've been on and off dieting for years. It took me 60+ years to find a group like MFP - its wonderfully supportive members, that is! - to discover how to become more fit and healthy. A lot of gaining weight is about…

Yeah, Slimsters!!!

You're not alone with being frustrated... we've ALL had those days after stepping on the scale! Our bodies just retain weight depending on the amount of salt in processed food (or even the little we may use in our clean eating). My weight this week has also been bouncing around - up and down. Some days I've been good in…

What do you like to be called? Brian How did you learn about the 5% Challenges? Scrolling thru MFP's Categories I think How many 5% Challenges have you done? None, before now What do you like to do for fun? Bake (not so much now, because of trying to lose weight), read bookds about ancient cultures and mythologies, surf…

How about "Team Catzilla" ???

Glad to see your posts robbiev2 and rwatts2165 !!! Welcome!

I give you a helluva lot of credit for those 100 lbs several times - I'd be happy if I could do that ONCE! But I also understand that you've had problems keeping it off... maintenance I hear is much harder than trying to lose? I'm 67, with a gimpy left leg due to a botched hip repair and was also diagnosed with MS. Stuck…

My journey to becoming fit has been a long - at least 60+ years long. Started once again on June 1st, 2024 when I caught a glance of myself in a full-length mirror, was shocked by what I saw, and headed directly to and on the scale where it registered 286.2 lbs. Made some hard decisions about my (then) diet... and have…

I had thought about getting a new rollator, the kind with the high handle bars you rest your arms on horizontally, but my visiting nurse (year ago) said his clients with had them, complained of the shoulder and neck problems you speak of, over time. Thanks so much for posting all those strength-training vids for me, and…

Sunday through Wednesday 🔴 tomatos, peppers 🟠 peppers, salmon 🟡 eggs, peppers 🟢 cabbage, spinach, green peas, brussels sprouts, cucumbers, broccoli (as the Irish say, "one thousand shades of green"!) 🟤 croissant (my big splurge!) ⚪ Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, chicken, cauliflower, tuna

Great, AK !!! Together, we'll leave the others behind in the dust !!! :D

Yes! Even a salad looks GREAT after you've done a 24-hour fast! LOL Even when my arms hurt after extended use of my Rollator, I am glad to have it, as it's much better support than quad canes and a regular walker. Yes, I'd love to know what your routine is for seated strength-training. Yesterday, I started doing "10,000…

Anybody here want / need a walking partner? I'm available!!!

I really think my biggest challenge remains the Autumn - Christmas holiday season (Sept 1 - January 7), I usually totally lose interest in dieting when my newsfeed is filled with gorgeous photos of delicious cakes, pies, cookies and other desserts, as well as creamy casseroles, stews and soups! I'm hoping that my cycling…

Thanks, I'll check out TOPS and WW, hadn't thought about them having online meetings, as well.
-
Yes, I did join several of interest to me and will need to start posting in them! I must say that THIS group (all us, Slimsters) has been the friendliest group of folks right from the get-go!!!
-
Thanks for your congrats, Teresa! I'm glad I'm not the only one to find weight-loss meetings unhelpful. If I'm going to attend a meeting, I at least want to feel I'm getting some useful info / support, Your Jason Seib seems he's all about 'Helpin' the Ladies' !!! LOL I belong to two different churches; one is a mega-church…

Very interesting article about a less-expensive alternative to Ozempic, et al which according to one test works better. https://dailymail.co.uk/health/article-13820505/ozempic-supplement-skinny-jab-symbiotic-fat-burn.html

I'm looking for an alternative to Overeater's Anonymous, online. The reason I had asked y'all for your experiences of OA was to see if any of your feelings towards their meetings matched mine. I've attended 4 different groups online, all of the people in the groups were very nice, and interesting. Basically, the problem I…
