Wat back when, I was on the South Besch diet and I believe its phase I is similar to the DD phase I in that you limit carbs. It left me feeling weak and real low energy. So much so that I couldn’t climb a hill I was used to foing regularly. I did lose 9 lbs in the first 2 weeks and managed to keep them off. Even tho I…

I just found a Dash Diet group on MFP but it doesn’t look very active and I don’t know why it didn’t show up when I first searched for it. This time I went to groups in the icon on the left at the top of the page and did a general search instead of a title search. It showed up 3rd down on my search results with the author…

Simone - if you started one I would join and support it.

Did you scroll all the way down to where Servings let you enter the number of servings for the recipe?

So I'm 71, with a bmi on high end of normal (24.something). I eat Mediterranean most of the time, veggies, fruits, lean protein. In 2002 when I was diagnosed with high blood pressure and low thyroid I weighed about 185 lbs and was put on meds. I now weigh 140 and feel good at this weight. I go to the gym At least 3x a week…

My doc cut my dose of cozaar from 50 mg to 25 mg and told me to monitor my bp, taking the measurements first thing in the morning then later in the day after I've taken meds. Just back from dr. Appt. she took me off cozaar completely, told me to keep measuring bp and come back in 2 weeks to see if my bp stays low enough to…

My goal for August is to do 150 minutes of aerobic exercise per week, not counting walking the dog who seems to be getting as little slower on our walks. And to do 2 weight workouts a week at the gym using free weights and machines.

You could check out My Dash Diet. I'm using it to keep track of my fruits and veggies. It's not so great for total calories and the food look up is awkward but I mostly use the generic entry to count the number of f & v I eat. Seems I should be able to do this in my head. I aim for 4 fruits 4 veg/dAy.

I bought some kiseo tape for ankle weakness. You need to go to their website for demos on how to tape for various injuries. I noticed that plantar fasciitis was one of the many conditions listed. My ankle feels stable. It might help.

Lemon pepper chicken, broccoli, brown rice and roster carrots. A glass of cab.

What did you say to your friend when he weighed 245?

IMO my body is under stress trying to shake off the cold virus. I don't want to stress it more with a workout. I take my grandmas advice and pamper myself by staying tucked in at home, drinking tea and eating chicken soup. Then I ease back into my workout schedule when I feel better.

You can get tendonitis in the front of the foot. It's the anterior tibialis. I hurt mine when I increased the incline on the treadmill doing HIIT. See if flexing then pointing foot hurts - that was my symptom. Doc recommended rest and ice and compression . It helps
