Good topic! I’d find it helpful to share and motivate!
I’m finding it difficult to put enough focus on managing my food lately, although I feel it’s a priority. I’m stuck at an uncomfortable weight. (DCIS 2022, radiation, tamoxifen, last surgery to adjust breast shape Nov 2024, now testing for subclinical hypothyroidism, high cortisol, possible adrenal hyperplasia- the doctor visits seem unending.)

If it’s any help to you, I have found I’ve made slow and steady gains on exercising. Two years ago I walked into a gym knowing I needed to do something. I felt very uncomfortable there, and disliked going. But I went, and just did what I could, consistently. It’s a bit embarrassing - the small amount of weight I can lift, and my slow pace on the elliptical but I realize everyone is there for themselves and don’t really care what I’m doing.
I now go 2x a week and feel comfortable. Never thought that would happen! I started rowing and found it’s actually one of my favorite ways to exercise.

I may need to go back to using a food tracking system, like you mentioned MyFitnessPal. I have the LoseIt app downloaded, will probably use that.
Thanks for the post - it was the right comment at the right time!
