I am me,
I’ve been on mfp over 3 years now. Had people come and go, made friends for life too, but more recently, thought I’d made friends, only to have them copy me, slate me, then block me. Not only that, but get their other friends to have a go at me and say I’m copying them. Where’s the motivation and helpful advice in that?…

6000 steps a day
I'm starting at 6000 steps per day then after a month build it upto 7000 and so on until I reach 10000 steps a day. I have problems with my right leg and knees so it's very painful to walk that's why I started at a low stepage. Plus I need to figure out how to get my Fitbit to sync with mfp

New medication
My shrink is trying me on different tablets. He's slowly taking me off trazadone and giving me venflaxine. So now after three months I'm on ven with no trazadone. Somedays I feel like I'm not myself.

6000 steps a day
I don't usually walk all that much due to a bad leg but I'm challenging myself to walk 6000 steps a day. If I do more than that it will be a bonus.

Overeating
Omg I left hull on 16th October, was ill with flu for two weeks but for the past week I have been overeating. It's not like me to do this. I've put 15 lbs back on even though I'm trying to eat healthy. One too many dumplings with stew don't help either. Plus chocolate. I need to stay clear of it as I have insulin dependant…

Candy floss
i often work on the fair/carnival and used to avoid candy floss even though I love it. One day I had a bag of floss then went onto a website that you search for things and it gives out nutritional values. That bag of candy floss was 120 calories.

injections and tablets
I have both of these and sometimes I feel they are annoying but I am getting used to doing injections in public when I am out and about . I would often forget about injections while out in public but soon learned that my sugar levels would drop low.
