I will turn 60 this year. it is 100 xs as hard to knock off weight and keep it off. Let's be friends? We can comiserate together. :bigsmile:

That is so exciting! My kids have been out living their lives. They came back and both carried on about how good I looked over Thanksgiving. It is great motivation for me to again concentrate on my lifestyle changes. I'm right there with you. It's great to have MFP friends share their successes!:wink:

I'm a substitute teacher. When the kids tell me I'm mean I say, that's ok my kids call me MOMM- "Mean Ole Mrs. Miller". It's o.k. I treat my kids the same way. My 26 year old has thanked me for letting her live with consequences when they weren so big.My son thanks me for letting him play in the dirt =) . It takes a…

Brilliant! I fidget a lot. I toe tap, finger tap, wriggle in my seat. Even when I am laying down some part of my body is moving. Now that I am getting a handle on eating and have stopped pull-ups (to the table LOL) maybe when I reach my goal and I maintain my eating, I won't gain weight back?

Add me as a friend:happy:

There are also age and fitness levels that affect everything. Rule of thumb keep the calories you consume les than the calories you…

If you can't be a shining example be a HORRIBLE warning!

Go to recipes Add your ingrediants Then let MFP calculate calories. Whenn you eat that meal again click on recipes and on the right hand side is a hidden button that pops up and asks if you want to add your food to your food journal. easie peasie

Hang in there cupcake! I sent you a message. Let me add- ice it before you go and take an antiinflamatory (alleve, ibupropin, whatever your dr has you on. Then ice it again when you get back. sometimes the inflamation is the pain stressor so if you can keep the inflamation down the pain won't be as bad. Did they put you on…
