Please get your shingles shot!
(don't be like me :s ) I had my first shingles about a year or two ago. I was lucky - it was really a fairly mild bout. Did some research and experts say 'it's highly unlikely that a person will get shingles more than once.' Guess I should have read further because I'm one of the unusual ones. Started getting an outbreak…

March Challenge?
The February challenge started by Charlie was really beneficial, for me at least. Does anyone want to do a March challenge? It doesn't have to be weight loss (although it can be), but can be habit, exercise, binge (i.e.) related. Just state your personal goal, then we'll check in next Tuesday. With this group, we'll come…

HELP - Breakfast ideas for dieting guests please?
We're having guests for a long weekend at the lake. It was a challenge before to come up with a menu for everyone, now it's even more difficult. C doesn't like noodles, tomatoes/tomato sauce, strawberries, pistachios, many vegetables and usually avoids breads, but loves meat (especially hot dogs) and cheese. She's on a…

May Chat
So i came in to see what's stirring in our young lives, and there was NO May Chat topic. WHAT? Fix that in a hurry, yuppers... Not food/exercise or anything like that related, but today was a good day :drinker: When we bought our first lake house, we also bought a boat. Shortly after we have it, Rick starts up with "we…

Eating Out
During my prior life (first husband... living in Wisconsin) we rarely went out to eat, although I had a lot of business meals 'out'. It was such a treat that my current husband LOVES going to restaurants. AND introduced me to real Tex-Mex food. 100 pounds later ...:grumble: First time since i started getting serious about…

Our own NSV (non scale victories), because...
Our victories may simply be different that the 19-30 year olds post LOL Two little ones for me that I'll share to start.. 1) Ordered a size smaller jeans than I normally wear and they FIT. Didn't even need to suck anything in (or lay on the bed to zip them up LOL). Will see what happens after I wash them :grumble: 2) I've…

Knees (sigh)
My poor overloaded knees are not happy. I simply don't get on the floor anymore, because I can't count on being able to get back up without help. :embarassed: And stairs... YUCK! So I'm hoping that someone out there can reassure me that my knees will work better & generally be happier once I get to a suitable weight.…

Changed goal to honest, and nutrition goals changed?!?!
Started being faithful on MFP just over 2 weeks ago, and set my goal weight as my 'mini goal'. Started losing weight, and decided today to be honest - added another 45 pound loss. And MFP changed my nutrition goals completely! Now it's high carb (50%), highish fat (30%) and low protein (20%). Seriously? I don't get it -…
