Some days strength routine. Exercise increases my energy 4. Track my food and exercise. Keeps me accountable. If I don't take care…

Bread and high sugar desserts create a craving for even more of the…

EXERCISE: - I commit to exercise for 30 minutes each morning. I will alternate walking and a strength/flexible routine. In addition I want to keep increasing my steps. I spend too much time walking during the day working at a desk. I will set a timer and get up and walk 250 steps most hours before returning to my desk.…

MEAL PLAN: What has worked to help me lose 60 pounds so far is: Intermittent Fasting 18:6 which means eating meals between Noon and 6PM. With Healthy Keto which means at least 50% of my plate is filled with non-starchy vegetable, then 25% protein, then high fiber fruits and healthy fats complete the meal. What this means…

WHY: Getting to a healthy weight and staying there increases health span which is actually more important than life span. I am 71 years old and I want to live my 4th quarter which as much health as possible. It…
