There are many people on MFP who have lost a lot of weight eating exactly what they want but keeping calories low enough to loss. I wouldn't say anything unless asked. What seems healthy to one person is not to another. And what works for one person doesn't necessarily work for another. Question is why does it bother or…

Honey, try to stop beating yourself up over past choices. Let the past be just that past, over and done with. Now move forward by identifying what you want to accomplish and WHY you want to do it. Start today and keep moving forward towards the goal you've identified and think of WHY you need to get this done when times…

I simply stay aware of what I am eating each day by logging it here on MFP. I started because other programs weren't working and I knew it was time to look at my food choices and volume in order to accomplish my goals.

Seeing how I like working out now I can't understand why I didn't like it for so many years. I would have pushed exercise throughout my life, found activities I enjoyed and paid attention to nutrition and fitness information all along. :flowerforyou:

Also some fruits like guava, mango and papaya have fiber and you can eat them with cottage cheese or Greek yogurt for fiber and protein. And then there's Questbars- protein bars with lots of fiber

I count caffeine free and decaf. Just consider water prime goal.

Strength training is great exercise and can be an important part of a fitness routine. It will not make you large, actually it will have the opposit effect on a woman. Good luck!

There are machines at the gym intended for use with limited or no lower body use. Wheelchair etc. You can check it out if interested. Good luck with your surgery!

Tush way back behind you as you go down. Over emphasis that movement-- and let quads and glutes kick in leaving knees out of things.

Accept yourself where you're at now and be very proud that you want to improve on that! Many others in your community wish that they had the strength and will power to do what your doing so Walk Tall! :flowerforyou:

Best thing you can do is learn all you can about nutrition, move all you can and make educated and sound food choices. Try protein along with carbs and keep refined sugar low. Drink lots of water too. Get off soda, diet soda etc. just my opinion.

Time for health care professionals advice... Not ours. Probably nothing but good idea to check it out.

Ignore it. With that said there may be a day where they truly are involved with something that keeps them moving for 5 or 6 hours and they feel like keeping track in their log, but 23 hours?

I'd be insulted. Try " you will always look 30 and youthful". That might win her over. :flowerforyou:

Like a lot- in recipes.

Like this 10, 10, 10, 10, 10. Sets with other sets in between.

Playdates with other moms and kids who are compatible with you and your kids can work wonders :flowerforyou:

My husband, our two sons, one of our daughters, two dogs and a bird. It's active around here :bigsmile:

Depends on several factors like your age, size, goals, gender etc. For many it's a good number to stick around to lose weight and for others it's not enough. I suggest you try to get advice from a knowledgeable professional if possible and start there. Weight loss is a process and takes time and stick to itiveness. It is…

Na, but being healthy and happy is totally worth it :happy:

Bump for a few good recipes

Depends totally on how I'm feeling. I suggest you listen to your body and rest when you need to rest and push when you need to push. Feel better soon!

Congratulations on a job well done! You look great and have a lot to be proud of :flowerforyou:

1. Keeping track of what I eat. 2. Drinking before and after meals but not with my food. In other words I eat less when I don't wash it down.

Being in the best health I can be in :smile:

They all get along but there's jeolousy and rivilry as well. Human nature.

I gave up my way to big, way to baggy clothes! And so happy I did!

Quest Protein Bars

Set out a plan that you can live with and stick to it. For example if you go out to eat or drink on weekends you can plan to hike, bike, walk or something else physical on Saturday and Sunday thereby increasing your calorie deficit. Also the activity will help to keep you focused as well. Still need to be mindful and keep…
