  • I'm 5'2", 56 years old, and my goal weight is 124. I'm 3 pounds away! I now wear size 6 -- every time I buy clothes I'm shocked I don't have to buy size 1x.

  • Me--9 Binge--0 I'm planning to challenge one of Binge's best friends today - Procrastinator. I'm hoping to keep them both powerless.

  • Me--7 The Binge--0 So far so good, but it would be so nice to turn off the constant thoughts about food in the evening.

  • Me--5 The Binge--0 The Binge did his best to bust me last night but I held him off! I went over my calories yesterday -- didn't exercise as much as I generally do -- and the Binge-monster tried to convince me to go over just a little more. Well, I wouldn't have stopped with just a little food; it would have turned into a…

  • Ironically the only one of these that doesn't particularly motivate me to eat is hunger. Strange, huh?

  • I qualify and can always use additional motivating MFP friends. :)

  • Dawn, My score was 26, so I (reluctantly) decided to have the chemo -- TC like you, but I haven't had any problem with it so far. My first treatment was this past Wednesday. I'm sorry to hear you're allergic! Good luck with CMF; hopefully it will go well. Is it every 3 weeks like the TC? Stubtail, Congratulations on your 7…

  • Today I'm grateful for: 1. Staying abstinent today. 2. Having an amazingly easy time with chemo; no nausea so far! 3. OA podcasts. 4. Walking into an OA meeting 16 months ago; my program is FAR from perfect but I'm in a MUCH better place physically, emptionally, and spiritually to deal with breast cancer than I was 16…

  • I love the motivation that my MFP friends provide! I've lost about 75 pounds - most of it before getting serious about MFP. Now that I'm at a healthy weight, I'm finding MFP extremely helpful learning how to deal with maintenance. I am realizing that if I want to keep the weight off, I'm going to have to keep track of what…

  • Dawn, any word on the chemo? I was 100% sure I wouldn't need chemo, but what do I know? My oncologist suggested I have the Oncotype DX test done. My score was right smack in the middle which is inconclusive. It's not a clear cut decision but based on my doc's advice I've decided to have the chemo. I'm ticked off and…

  • Greetings from another 50+ MFP -- I turned 56 2 weeks ago. I joined MFP last February but didn't start using it consistently until a few weeks ago. I'm pretty close to where I want to be weight-wise, and I am finding MFP a really great tool for learning how to maintain. I think it IS possible to teach an old dog new…

  • htimpaired, I am sorry to here you've gained weight back; been there done that myself many times! I'm 5'2" and my highest weight was over 200lbs; you're to be commended for getting back here when you did! I appreciate your post; it serves as a caution for me. I'm basically at the weight I want to be and now I'm determined…

  • I had the testing done after I was diagnosed and before I made my surgery decision. I have family history - my mother, my maternal aunt, and maternal grandmother all had breast cancer. Happily, It turns out I don't carry the genetic mutation!

  • Hi all, I'm a breast cancer "newbie" - I was diagnosed with Invasive Ductal Carcinoma on June 15th this year, my surgery (lumpectomy and sentinal node removal) was 2 1/2 weeks ago, and I have my first appointment with my radiation oncologist this Thursday. I've lost a lot of weight over the last 18 months and I am trying…

  • Hi, I'm going to be 56 in two days; I guess I qualify! I have lost 70 lbs over the last year and a half, mostly without using MFP, but I think I dneed to start tracking more carefully to drop those last 10 pesky pounds. So here I am! Feel free to add me as a friend and I'll assume I can do likewise. :happy:
