Hello I am Linette I am over 50 and sick of diets hat just do not work. I just completed a Mindful Eating course that gave me some tools to help me gauge my hunger and eat more instinctively. Any support along this journey of Health and Loss is very welcome. I have about 100 pounds to lose. :)

I am currently 243 and my ideal weight for my height is 135-140. So here I am on a journey of Getting healthier.

Glad to have you back. I have gained much more than that. I have a total of 80+ to loose. Menopause, illness and a job where I sit all day has been something I could not overcome. I feel now that i am ready. started the 1st of the year so far 5 down. but if i loose only 1 a week i a happy with that.

only you and I for now but I am Hopeful more will interact

Oh yes my knees did not hurt till I got heavy. 2017 is going to be fantastic

I have found the movement helps with the joints and metabolism just getting the motovation to move is a challenge.

Adding you Add me - anyone - most from when I was on before are inactive also. I have given myself a year to complete my goal. I have started a Blog to help. By logging on a public Diary my Successes and Fails I am hoping to achieve this Goal. http://linettedoodysharrow.blogspot.com/ I have over 80 pounds to lose.

Eat your goal calories and only count activities for cardio that are not normal daily activities. I am sure if you did gardening before and you gained while doing it before joining MFP. I don't know why people count cleaning their homes either. I gained all those years I was cleaning and doing laundry. So I refuse to count…

I am joining. I bought this a few months back and then got busy with work and school. My job now lets my department work from home and I am now at home,Yea!!! and I can do it on my lunch break. Now I can sweat and sit at my desk in my tee-shirt and shorts and who would care. Loosing some inches would be great. I have my 30…

I am working at home now and I am hoping with having more control over my day and having complete access to my foods and not being tempted by the cafeteria that I will stick . Exercise is harder when you work at an…

Isn't funny how weight can affect ability to be motovated and energy level. :yawn: I have the same problem. I find once I do get out I am fine.:happy: It is the initial getting out that is hard. I am working on it too.

Park down the block and walk a bit maybe. There has to be somewhat less convenient area that still provides access. Where there is a will there is a way.

PHOTOGRAPHY I consider myself an extreme hobbist. I have been taking class at a local community college to learn and explore it. I love the contempory and abstract but I also have a love of landscapes. [img][/img] Saguaro National Park, Tucson, AZ by lbccphotomom, on Flickr [img][/img] The Bridge by lbccphotomom, on Flickr

Photography is my creative outlit :smokin: I am still learning and discovering new things. The unusual and hidden abstracts in landscape :glasses: Like below: [img][/img] decubitus by lbccphotomom, on Flickr I also like to create odd protraiture with a sense of whimsy and the unreal :noway: And object can inspire me to…

I like to do photography to express myself. :smokin: I really like to use a Holga camera it is considered a toy camera because it has a plastic lens. This type of photography is classified as Lomography. :flowerforyou: [img][/img] decubitus by lbccphotomom, on Flickr [img][/img] Salton Sea Beach Marina by lbccphotomom, on…

I am thinking that in the digital is is more about producing a print and the other is maybe more about coffee table books. One section is for show and the other shows how. That is a bit nutty that would go to gether. An 8X10 camera and glass negatives would be far from digital I would think. :noway:

Hello my name is Linette and I am 47. I have been taken photography classes now for 4 years. I can only take one each semester cause I work full time. I prefer landscapes but have become intrested in contemporary portraiture/narrative since I started taking classes. I went back to school when my daughter took a photoclass…

I love using my Holga it uses 120 film and I can develop at home, I use a changing bag to put the film in a developing container and when I am done I scan my negative into the computer and print. Here is a shot I did with this process.
