So with this terrible update... is there another app similar to how MFP used to be?

Hi There! There are tons of groups and pages on here, but depending on how large they get the value of that page and change. Feel free to add me on here as I'm looking for some accountability as well

The commute is not every day, but I have to travel all over VA & NC so really moving isn't an option, plus we just moved in 2022 and during that move I herniated a disc... so I ain't moving again! HA And my wife and I do take turns running him around to the various things he/we have to go to. I really do need to focus more…

Yeah so my typical commute is not 4 hours, but my traveling for work is not uncommon. The new business we're starting is mainly for my wife and I'm running the paperwork & financials. I often am active on the weekends, golf, mountain biking, yard work, generally being outdoors. However, the weekend activity doesn't offset…

HI there MamasEmail71, I'm in a similar situation. I find it very hard for me to keep up with daily activities. I'd be happy to connect with you and maybe we can chat daily to keep each other on track. I just sent over to you an invite.

HI, Invite sent. I'm struggling with time due to work and commitments.

Welcome! I hope you get a lot out of this site!

I've been on here for years and some years I was able to make some great progress and while the number on the scale didn't go down too much, I was lifting more and looking better. In 2022 I herniated a disc in my back and I spent much of that year in some level of pain trying everything before I finally got an epidural…

Picking up heavy things! Fight Milk - Made with Crowtein!!!

Today marks 1 year! It can be done! Keep Going

I log in but I've not been the best with what I eat.... Anyway feel free to add me if you'd like. I'll be around...

If you're interested 191 days clean. The DipQuit app helped keep me on track. I still miss it sometimes, like when I'm stressed and I have a lot to do, but it's much easier to fight those cravings... one day at a time y'all!

That last one didn't last..... But I'm back quitting again.... day 18 now. I'm using the DipQuit app on my phone. If you're also looking to quit, give that a shot.

They say, "Never quit quitting!" So I'm on Day 3 again.

Its been 19 days again.... stress builds up and I cave in. I'm trying to fight it off again with the stress from work and the holidays coming up.

Agreed with everything here. Start light and go deep in the squat. You want your thighs parallel to the ground. Some people say "*kitten* to Grass" but that can often cause a lot of stress on your knees. Another tip might be to put a bench in the squat rack so that when you squat, you go down until your butt touches the…

Yeah routine is the tough part. So it's been 87 days now and last week I had to travel for work and was driving alone for 5 hours, I caved a bit, but I ended up buying a can of pouches and didn't even dip them the entire way and threw the can away the next day. For me, I was always dipping on the 5 hour drive to Charlotte…

60 Days

Thanks... back on track or stayed on track... 45 Days in!

Today has been 40 days and dealing with a bunch of stress and trying to fight the urge to just get a can for the day.

At this point I'm not sure really... I'd maybe ask a few doctors. I dipped for probably 10 years and would go through probably 1-2 cans a week. I think everyone has their different ties to it and the addiction. My withdrawal is more mental, I never came to that moment where I really wanted to quit, I found it relaxing and…

26 days free on January 26th!

Alright .... 9 days in!

Great job on your 573 days and thanks for your support. Which website did you find?

Yeah so it didn't last starting again last fall. Trying again. It's another New Years Resolution and today is day 4. Not "REALLY" wanting to quit is what makes it so hard... I just know that I should quit. Here we go again!

Depends on the gym, but from what I've seen at the gyms that I've gone to, you'll get a lot of support from people since you're all there with the same goal... to become more healthy. For the most part, people are not jerks. Most people are also willing to help others at the gym, if you don't know how a piece of equipment…

Yeah so its been 17 days now... getting easier but still think about it. Especially when stressors arise!

Yeah so in an effort of full disclosure... that last post from me back in February of 2015 was going well…. Then over the summer of 2015 I was out on vacation with a bunch of friends from college for a long bachelor party and thought that since I had kicked the can for as long as I had, that I could just buy one can and be…

Those friends with the high end bikes should be the ones that could help be a "translator" between you and the sales person. Those friends "should" be able to hear what the sales person is saying and either confirm that what they are saying in important and correct or be able to determine if that sales person is just…
