Hi again! I'm hopelessly confused by this board thing, but I"ve read the posts and am so touched by all the stories, the support, etc... I hope to figure this all out because I definitely want to be here :flowerforyou: Got a great workout at the gym tonight and have been very successful with meal planning and staying well…

One more thing please? How do I bookmark this board ... not sure I"ll ever find it again!

Hi All- I'm jumping right in even though I don't quite understand these boards... My name is Amy I live on Martha's Vineyard. I just turned 50 last week. I've been on MFP sporadically for about 3 years maybe. A year and a half ago I had a total hip replacement and right before that surgery, I was in the best shape of my…

I'll be 50 next year and me too!!

I hate it when I"m doing my cardio and I hear the grunts and groans from the huge muscle guys in the free weight area.

Congratulations! You are an inspiration :)

thanks for the reminder :)

I thought of a bell. In between hacking away at my leg, I kept ringing it.... Because I had fallen into a cavern, the echo of the bell alerted hikers far away who managed to save me and also stitch up my leg where I had been sawing away at it!

Try to squeeze in a quick walk or something. Exercise will help! Air popped popcorn is a strategy a dietitian shared with me... It is very low in calories and you can have a few cups of it.

I loved the yoga too!

You can do it!! I've just started (again). Sugar is definitely my drug and I find once I get it out of my system, the desires are easier to manage. Feel free to add me, we can help each other!

Fantastic!!! Congrats on your success!

welcome! I joined about a week ago. So far so good :)

I used to love the eliptical at the gym. You burn LOTs of calories. But I can't do that right now so I'm on the stationary bike. And pilates.

Welcome :)
