After a few years, hello again! MFP is more $ now but I’m giving it a re-try. I’m so obese (70# min to lose) and so unfit; I fall easily and am heading into ‘disability’ and earlier death perhaps — so this really IS “life or death” for me now. I’d like to see my grandchildren graduate hs at least! I’ve jumped in and I…

Late to the party here, but I started at about 220 lbs in December (5'6" height, 62 yrs old) and am now basically vegan (as of Feb 7th 2018) and eating a plant-based diet plus juicing, and am weighing now about 207 lbs. I can do only light, gentle exercise due to stenosis in my back, fibromyalgia, and other issues. Go,…

Hi - I'm "doing this again" too, as of TODAY! Three yrs of defeat are behind me and I renewed MFP (after several laptop crashes in Chrome or whatever) -- and I will join you in trying, and succeeding, this time. Let's be in it for the long haul, no matter what. Blessings ~ you can add this ol' lady if you want :smiley:

Hello, I am back after 3 yrs of defeat! MFP helped me before to lose 30#...now I have even more to lose. I let untreated depression, toxic family relationships, worsening pain (fibromyalgia/back/injuries from falls) bog me down; I gave up. But I went to the dr two days ago and saw what I weighed, and went home/cried/prayed…

Idea above this post is a good one LOL. I used to work with all guys in an IT dept, and they'd get "meat lovers" pizza with a pan crust for everyone; I blotted the grease off mine, stripped the toppings off the crust (I wouldn't even do that now!) & had a salad with it. I ignored their comments and said "I'm trying to live…

Ah ha! I thought 'Strength Training' would be with weights, but will put it in Cardio. Thanks!

Chronic, annoying pain and chest discomfort. Still have both but I do feel better, and am learning new ways to fight through and still do right for myself, even when I do hurt or feel very fatigued. It's working! Very thankful. Barb (Bree)

I just started MFP so I don't want to destroy the new habits only now setting in! BUT I will eat a little of everything and watch the portion sizes (measure!) since we'll have the bbq at our home for our family. THEN I will log everything I ate - how do you log homemade potato salad anyway? I use healthier stuff overall,…

P.S. (sorry) I forgot to say that I still juice, a couple-plus times a week, love the Green Lemonade and my 'Orange' morning one, and hope it will help me with this weight-loss and in feeling better. Good night ; - )

Hi guys, I did a 6-day fast from Dec 31 to Jan 5, 2014 after watching Joe's film, and it was quite a ride. Have a LaLanne Pro juicer and it works well but for being a pain to clean -- it takes me 30 min to soak and scrub it sometimes. I stopped the fast due to some weird symptoms, and my chronic fatigue only got worse by…

Hello all, My first posting on MFP: It's so nice to be on a forum with other ladies (and guys too if you're here) and we're all in this together so to speak! I'm very new here, just started 4 days ago to AGAIN try to lose weight. I haven't even weighed myself to see if anything is happening, since it's kinda early. Just…

I was skinny/slender until after last child was born in my late 30's, so in my HEAD I am still 'that way.' (crazy huh?) The reality I see in photos and mirrors always shocks & saddens me. Then in my 40's, with perimenopause and hubby's stressful Army deployments, my health crashed (CFS/FM - chronic fatigue & pain) and the…

Hi, just joined today and as soon as I figure out how to 'add friends' on here, I will add you guys! I don't have many true friends, and my closest ones are either not overweight or don't use the internet much (sigh). I look fw to trying this and see if I can, once again, lose weight and feel attractive and healthy to…
