Happy Birthday a day late Barbie. I've been busy and not had time to post. I lost 1.5 lb this week though. Trying to stay within my calorie limit and exercise more. My headaches are pretty much gone after getting chiropractic treatments. Had a bad night last night and woke up not doing so well this morning. It's all…

Good morning everyone! Natalie, sorry about the pain you are going through. About your weight lose, are you sure you haven't cut back on your eating because of the pain. It's been my expierence that when I am in a lot of pain I subconsciouly cut back on my eating. I would say if it keeps up say for two or three more weeks…

Well here I am ready to whine some. I've battled a horrible migrain the whole last week in June. Was in hospital Mon. getting IV's and pain & anto nausea meds. Tues was in docs office and was given stronger pain meds (narcotis) needless to say both days were a total loss. Wed I was back in the hospital getting a CAT scan…

Sounds like everyone is doing O.K., that's a good thing. They are predicting rain for us for today - I just hate dreary days. It's cloudy and cool right now. Made it to water aerobics yesterday and that went well. Plan on walking with a friend today. We never walk more than a mile but at least it's some exercise. The pool…

Morning everyone. Welcome Gail, glad to have in the group. exermom, I give Spock (our diabetic dog) insulin twice a day. 7 a.m. & 7p.m. He eats when he gets insulin to. He's doing fairly well but from the variences in his blood test I doubt that he'll ever be off insulin. He's 13 yrs old and has other health problems to.…

Good morning everyone! Chicklet so sorry that things aren't going well for you and your mother. My prayers are with you. When my DGS was little his favorite book was Are You my Mother? I read it to him every night. (He lived with us). I tried to get to broaden his horizons but no every night he would be sitting on his bed…

Good morning everyone! I think I'm getting my act together. I've been swimming already this morning and am right on target with my food plan. I went out to eat with a girlfriend yesterday and had 1 egg and toast so that wasn't to bad. Went to water aerobics and walked yesterday so I worked off the calories. I have to run -…

Had a better day today than yesterday. Stayed on my food plan, did water aerobics for an hour and walked a mile! Hope everyone is doing good it sounds like you are. YAH! My computer has been acting up today so I just wanted to get a short message on here before it shuts itself off again. Thank for all the support and…

Totally blew it in church today. I ate everything in sight. Went way over my calories for the day. When I got home I sat down and regrouped and started over. Chicklet - I know exactly how you feel. My mom lived with us the last three years of her life. The last two she was total care. Home Health came in to do medical…

Good morning everyone. Mimi & Chiclet sorry your day was so crazy. Chicklet, I know what your going through. My mom lived with us the last few years of her life and it was difficult. We at least had Home Health Care come in to help with baths and medical issues like wound care, catheters etc. My prayers are with you both.…

Good morning everyone! Hope those of you not feeling well get better soon. Does this horrible heat and humidity have anything to do with what ails any of you. I've been holding my own, had one day that I was sick from the heat but am better now. I try to get all my exercise and errands done in the earley a.m. so I can…

Good morning all! Welcome especially to the newcomers - we're happy you decided to join us. I along with others issue a heat warning for today. I'm in WI and yesterday was horrible and today is supposed to be worse. I went swimming at 6:00 a.m. this morning for an hour. Then DH and I went and ran a couple errands because I…

So far my weekend isn't going as planned. Last night DGS came home with all the fixin's for hamburgers and brats. He and his friend wanted to cook for us. I knew with my stomach problems I shouldn't eat meat but I just couldn't turn them down. So I ate a small hamburger patty and woke up this a.m. sick as a dog. I managed…
-
Good morning all! Welcome to the newcomers. Well it's 9:22 a.m. here and I just finished my weeks worth of laundry. And DH and I went for a 1 mile walk. It's not really far but we're trying different routes to see what the different distances are. Mimi be careful of that mtn lion. It's not a good sign when they bring their…

Good morning everyone! Hope everyone is doing O.K. It's good to see our group is growing. Welcome everybody. I see some of those that have been on this thread awhile are rethinking their goals and that's a good thing. Friday is my weighin day and I was pleasantly surprised to find I lost another lb. That's 2 for this week!…

Dee - I'm so sorry about Katy but you are right she's now with the Lord. My prayers are with you.

Hi Mary, my b-day is March 6 if you'll add me to your list. Boy was I in for a shock this morning. I ate 1/2 cup rice with skim milk and I added 1 TBS of raisens. When I logged in my food I discovered that the raisens had 30 grm. of sugar in them. That's more than my allotment for the whole day. I won't do that again!!!…

Wow, I can't believe it's June already. I didn't completely make my May goal so I modified my goals for June. They are all in my signature. I hope I'm not biting off more than I can chew so to speak. Welcome to the newbies for the month and to those who are returning. This is such a wonderful and supportive thread. Created…

My husband has been on Lexapro for several years and had no problem with weight gain. I'm on Zoloft, trazadone and Geodon for depression and anxiety. I'm bi-polar. I found I gained more weight without the meds than with the meds. You should talk to your doctor about your concerns and consult him before making med changes.

Good Morning everyone. Star, thanks for the pep talk and advice. I figure I can do anything for fifteen minutes so I'll give that a try. I think I will quilt or read for 15 minutes when I get a craving. I've also gone back to measuring my food because I found myself creeping in larger portions. I have to eat five times a…

Violingirl - Sorry I got your name wrong on my last post.

Vikingirl - I wounldn't weigh everyday. I was doing the same thing and the same thing happened to me. I was told to weigh once a week at the same time, it's best earley in the am. With water retention and other things your body does your weight fluctuates dailey so by weighing dailey you don't get a true reading. Good…

Hello, I'm 60 yrs old so I guess I qualify for 50+. I've only been on MFP for about 10 days so I'm still getting in the swing of things. I've lost 3 lbs so far and I'm happy with that. I measured myself and have lost several inches. In 1982 I had my stomach stappled which worked for over five years but personal issues and…

Hi, I would love to be your friend. I don't know what your eating plan is but if you're taking way less calories than needed to loose weight your body can go into a starvation mode in which your metabolism slows way down and you use less calorie thus hit a plateue. It's better to eat close to your needed calories and…
