Exercise?
How much and what kind if exercise do you all do? I started out last year with 30 min on the treadmill. I have increased that to walking 1-2 hours total a day ( 5-10 miles) I am wondering if that is normal and reasonable or if I am obsessed with getting the exersize so I can eat more. My recent injury has led me to…

Check in?
Our shameful secret: the specifics of our personal issues with eating. This group could be real helpful if everyone would participate to help each other get and stay better. So how about a check in? I made it through the discomfort of a 3 lbs weight gain without purging. That is huge for me - It has been 2 weeks since my…

What to do with my big clothes

Do you pay attention to macros?
I am not feeling great even eating back most of the exersize calories. I have not paid attention to macros so I looked at my log- and I noticed I usually get more carbs than either fat or protein. Thoughts?

Fitbit helping to motivate me
I resisted getting a Fitbit but did not refuse when I was gifted one for Christmas. In the week since I started using it I am amazed at how much I want to get in my steps. When I stand I walk back and forth and silly things like that - the steps add up and I get to see the app " go green"

My grand experiment to make it through December - The interment fast result is in!
I decided to try interment fasting to get through the holidays. The deal with myself was track food and exersize as usual but allow for days off to enjoy the special occasions of the season- food and all. The only thing I required of myself was to stick to a 18/6 schedule- 18 hours fasting- 6 hour window for eating. I had…

Cosmetic surgery
Has anyone considered this for sagging neck and jaw? I decided to do it. The better I felt from working out working out and eating better the worse I felt about my neck. It got even saggier after the 20 pound weight loss. I consulted with 2 plastic surgeons and decided to have a neck and mini facelift with fat injections.…

Hello!
I have been dieting/ walking for 2 months because "everything" was was falling apart. I have probably lost 20 lbs- I was too afraid to face the scale- now I found this wonderful app I can eat without worry! Glad to find a group my age ( 61 in 3 days) I did finally weigh myself and it's all ok! Really just want to feel good.

No fear!
A few months ago I "woke" up to the idea that I was no longer young. I was only wearing baggy clothes and dreaded going anywhere. My knees and back hurt. I could not face weighing myself. I thought I was too old to be able to lose weight but I decided to try. I wanted my Granson to be able to know me as vital and not…
