Merry Meet
Merry meet all, my name is Candice. I joined MFP in August 2012 when I decided it was time for a positive change. I gained weight after years of unemployment, and physical ailments such as hypothyroidism and side effects of some prescriptions. I went from 120lbs to 190 in a few years and finally I'd had enough. I've been…

Looking for more options
I am wondering what other LOW impact cardio videos are available. I am currently doing Leslie Sansone's workouts and I love them, but I'd like to expand.

TicTacs are they good or bad?
I stopped smoking about a month ago and have been eating tictacs in place of smokes. I go through an average of 2 boxes a day. I've googled tic tacs to see if they are bad or not but everyone says something different. What are your thoughts? Fattening? Too insignificant to worry about? Better option? I just wanna see what…

Need help with Walking
I found a few similar posts about this but none were very helpful. I am in an area not good for walking but I want to try and walk daily anyway so I thought I might try walking in place. I looked up walking in place here as an exercise but there were no results. I've looked it up at other sites but I get different answers…
