well I'm 46 with the same problem in my right knee. The medical doc sent me to the orthopedic doc to get a MRI & found I have Osteoarthiritis. I now use a knee brace & don't bend as far anymore. It's something I had to adjust to & I have my moments when it's just fine & others where it's just to painful. They just told me…

I'm in control :bigsmile:

@MikiRun, I hope your ankle heals fully & soon. Keep calculating those calories, do some tummy tucks & buttock clenches while your sitting & the weight will come off. I started back on plan 2 weeks ago, so far so good. I just need to make sure I exercise a minimum of 3 days each week & get my water intake up. It would be…

You just described me to the capital letter T. I went to all of our class reunions without the only two girls I was close with in school. I had a ball at all of them & can't wait for the 30th reunion. My two friends think like you & every reunion I find myself begging them to go because everyone always ask for them. I…

It's been years for me also, but I don't treat myself to anything special. It's just another day.

I was always told 1/2 your body weight in ounces of water per day. Check with your doctor, maybe this is a question you should send into the DR OZ show.

No, I signed my mother up for MFP the middle of last year & she just turned 75 on Christmas day. She wanted to try & get a little healthier. I just have to keep reminding her how to use the site, lol.

I also like Oikos it's made by Dannon & is more mild in flavor not tart like some of the others. I like the Vanilla & Key Lime flavors.

Your not going to lose weight if you don't eat your calories & make sure all your other nutirients are close to what's needed. If your eating a lot less then required & exercising daily your taking in even less than what you think. You will lose weight only by eating your recommended calories & every now & then just little…

I agree with Sunshine_88. You exercise all week try to eat right all week so just relax & enjoy Saturday. I'm not saying wear sweat pants & gorge yourself. You should just be mindful, but not strict on limiting everything. We do this to learn how to eat everyday no matter the situation. When the party is done go back to…

I was always told by my doctors that carbonated drinks whether diet or not can keep you bloated & increase weight. Also how much water are you drinking? I was told 1/2 your body weight in ounces of water is what our body needs so I drink 135 oz. How much does everyone else drink?
-
I'm interested. I only had 8oz so far but have 2 1/2 water bottles next to me to finish soon. I need to drink about 8 bottles. Water Goal: 135 ounces

Non-scale victories for me would be: 1. Immediate goal to climb steps without getting out of breath or knees hurting. 2. Enjoy our R & B Line Dancing parties from 8pm to 1am without giving in to the pain. 3. Get back into size 20.

I try not to deny myself anything all together, since it always ends in overeating on that item later. A piece of advise is. if you know that's what you want then plan your food diary around it by making it fit into your calories & other numbers. This way it's not so much cheating as it is a planned meal, plus you'll still…

LMAO. When a woman wears perfume it's to feel pretty & smell good for the men, but when a man wears cologne it's to hide the fact that they didn't shower before going out. :-)

I think my food is under control, but I haven't started exercising yet. My challange is to do a minimum of 30 minutes for 3 days of either a stationary bike, walking or a workout dvd by Saturday night.

Watching Rio Lobo on TCM with John Wayne & Jennifer O'Neill.

That's a tuff one. I tend to eat more fish/seafood & beans. I try to eat my fruit, veges & drink a lot of water. Try to get as much fiber as you can & my doctor has me taking Metamucil 2 to 3 times a day for the Psyllium Fiber. If you have a lot of stress or nervousness try to minimize that as well. Just being rushed or in…

When I used to work the graveyard shift I kept my clothes & sneakers in the car & drove directly to the gym when I got off. Try to get enough sleep prior to work if possible & maybe a cat nap during break or lunch if you get one. That should give you enough pep in the morning. Have a protein drink or something light just…

Applebee's for their Under 550 selections & the Weight Watcher's selections, the tilapia on is very good. Check online for the restaurants your interested in since most supply their nutrients on their website so you can plan early.

I'm not crazy about cereal, but do like the Kashi Cinna-Raisin or Wheat'n Bran-Shredded Wheat better than the rest as far as taste goes. I usually just eat them dry as a snack or overtop of my yogurt. Most cereals to me have a fake sugar taste that I can't stand.

I agree with Mjfrede2 with your hair curled, small/medium earings, simple necklace, lip gloss & nice pair of shoes. NO platforms, clogs or sandals. If you don't have the dough for something new I'd go with the first white one.
