  • My experience is that the scale moves first; then the inches follow. I lost weight in five months and have been relatively stable for seven months, but my body continues to shrink. MzYoga

  • What a touching story! If only we were as smart in our twenties as we are in our 60's. Thanks for sharing.

  • I'm glad I found this group! Have been doing my own version of maintenance for a little over a month. I weigh daily but don't really track calories. If my weight goes up more than 2 pounds, I cut back my eating. I also keep a running weekly average of weight so that I can monitor trends. I believe this is a more accurate…

  • I've been attempting to do maintenance for a couple of weeks( through Thanksgiving). I do not find that I can eat anything and everything without gaining. I have a target weight and I weigh daily. When I'm over, I cut back. Perhaps that's the best I can do during the holiday season.

  • When I went on an Alaska cruise, there was tons of food. I was content to taste many things, but eat selectively. Plus, much of the food is overrated and average in taste. Enjoy your cruise and stay active.

It can take a while to get use to this machine, but it does offer a good cardiovascular reward.

  • Hi, I got a personal trainer at my gym for a couple of sessions when I started. The trainer was really good and gave me great advice about machines, free weights, and nutrition related to exercise. MzYoga

  • Hi, I'm new to MFP and this group. Recently retired and want to get in good physical shape. Although I don't have a lot of weight to lose, I'm short and I have waaay too much flab around the middle. It's so much harder to lose weight as we age. I enjoy exercise and I've found for me it is important to vary the exercise to…
