  • Hello. I would love to be a part of this group. I have just started walking, this is my second week. Can't wait to meet everyone.
  • Hi. Is anyone still in this group?
  • You should look into it, especially about the sugar. One of the best things you can do for your body is to cut back on sugar. I, myself, will take in no more than 20 grams of sugar a day. I still eat candy, home baked goods, I just ensure that my intake is no more than 20 grams. That is the only change I made to my diet,…
  • The smell never bothered me either, but I too have a problem with the itchy skin. I am currently using coconut oil. I does solidify if the temperature is under 72 (or there abouts) and chlorine and coconut oil smell reminds me of when I was a kid during the summer.
  • You are doing wonderful. Keep it up. I have enjoyed reading of your progress. We all have a right to be in the lanes don't let others bother you. Just enjoy yourself.
  • I really like "rotters", too. And, that is what I am going to call them. I already missed the beginning of season 4. What a lamebrain--but I didn't know. I don't watch much television. I expect I will do on demand to catch up. I love zombies, though I would hope to never encounter one. Or worse, become one. :sad: But, I…
  • Hi everyone. I hope you have room for one more. I too swim as often as I am able. I find it a very relaxing way to get in my exercise.

  • I used to help teach an adults swim class. A lot of the students had a terrible fear of water. You don't seem to be, so already you are ahead of the game. One of the drills we would have them do is while hanging out at the shallow end ( or any where you can stand and have your head out of the water) is practice bobbing.…
  • Hi Bluetoast. You can add me as a friend. I am in my 50s. I have no children, but I do need to lose weight. So far I have one additional friend on MFP and she is a great source of inspiration. As is just getting on the Community tab and clicking on any request and reading both the request and the members reply. I do have…
  • Hi. This is my third day. I turned 55 this year. I am an expert at losing weight, done it millions of times. Keeping it off, not so much. I am to the point I must lose weight for health reasons. Luckily, right now, I am only taking two meds. I have enjoyed reading the boards. Very inspirational and hopeful.
