  • Your philosophy is a great goal to strive for. I feel healthiest when I eat natural foods, such as a big pot of vegetable soup, grilled vegetables, or stir fries. I don't buy organic most of the time but I do eat lots of vegetables, whole grains, and a variety of meat, poultry, and fish. I think a hearty home-style whole…

I've been an avid exerciser for years but took a hiatus because of a hip problem but now I really want to get back to a regular schedule of healthy eating and exercising, gently building up my endurance again.

  • I just signed up for My Fitness Pal and would like friends, too. I send you a request. I keep slipping up and down in my weight loss goals. It is hard to keep restarting. But it is better to keep trying than to give up. Fitter52
