I debated opening this thread for days. Now that I did, here is my simplistic take. I drink diet soda, never once have I thought it would cause me to lose weight, certainly not without doing the other neccessary things. I do drink diet soda as part of my effort to eliminate extra sugar from my diet. Simple. "Our tax…

Is gait and mobility ok, pain free? Maybe you are doing too much to hard or fast. I don't know. I don't do stationary bikes. I do know about bad hips and getting checked out and issues addressed. I tried (badly) living with painful mobility for years prior to deciding finally enough's enough. I saw a surgeon and got hip…

Moments: In January and April of 2019 when teams of highly skilled surgeons, nurses and therapists replaced my very bad hips making me comfortably and happily mobile again giving me the ability and impetus to take better control of ny health, weight and fitness.

Probably a turn on treadmill tommorrow. I had to suspend as I prepared for and underwent a medical screening (All ok!).

Improved mobility, health and disposition after two successful hip replacements and subsequent rehabs!

Continue to be a positive example with how you keep and try to improve yourself. Always be kind and gentle but truthful in your conversations should you continue them. Cite folks like me (I am totally ok with this); here is my story briefly: Until 2019, I lived for years with painful, nearly debilitating mobility due to…

See your doctor and have addressable issues dealt with (in my case it was needed hip replacements). Starting out do ONLY what you feel you can and absolutely find such exercise you will enjoy and want to continue doing either alone or in group settings. Be patient add only doable amounts. As I progressed through my post op…

Thinking that denying myself of treats and the like would be key to weight loss. Under MFP calorie monitoring system, I have learned that needn't be so; indeed I can enjoy those things and stay happy, so long as I stay under my calorie goals and continue my exercise patterns. My result? I closed out 2019 43 pounds down…

About to enter into my 65th year (come March). I have just closed out one of my best years in recent memory that featured two successful hip replacements and rehabs which propelled me into renewed focus on diet, exercise and general good health. It springboarded me to brighter and happier demeanor and oh and about a 43…

My motivation was of such strength (self directed rage at last failure) that the suppossed nerve wracking (mirage, your life stresses don't change) elements didn't amount to squat, especially with each and every mirage obstacle faced and busted through like the nothing they are made each "next" hour, day, week that much…

I will soon hit ten year mark. Keep your streak alive! If you haven't begun to notice, you will see that all the supposed obstacles to staying smoke free are mirages, FAKE easily busted through. This includes food and drink. If you drink coffee or enjoy adult beverage but always smoked with them, Guess What!?!? Once you…

If pool is long enough, shallow and not so busy (as in people waiting to get in), how about walking through the water? That's good cardio. I have access to exercise and therapy pools where I go as well. I have cobbled together calesthenic routines with hip exercises (post hip replacement PT) as core that have me moving…

Personalization!! Nothing that I or anybody here say will make a damn bit of difference in your efforts. It all comes down to making whatever motivations and methods used strictly and entirely your's!!! Next month will mark ten years of success for me!! After everything I ever tried to do to stop smoking previously, it…

Second time in as many days here. Alerted MFP support. If they did anything, it was a fail obviously. I suspect that email will see a lot of traffic. It will become increasingly cantankerous as the issue continues to appear, reappear.

Mine says no internet connection available, which is nonsense, because I am posting in community and have edited my diary today and naturally blog and ad features work! Bigger question is why MFB constantly allows this nonsense to continue unaddressed?? Notifications feature has been broken and absent for over a month now.…
