Mercy! Mercy! That Dang Nabed PERCY!

Life Style Adjustments

Some think that to lose weight the answer is eating less, ie smaller portions, perhaps cutting out one meal a day. Others think that a vigorous workout routine, joining a fitness club is the answer. Still other believe that one of these fandango diets is the answer. If the truth be known its a combination of all three that will be necessary to lose weight particularly for those who are getting on in years and have allowed old eating and work habits to continue, long after an aging metabolism has outlived the need for a high energy diet.

After I retired I continued my old eating habits while slowing down the tempo of my daily life. Guess what? I started gaining weight, not so much I noticed it right away and not until I got an unpleasant wake up call. I needed three stints for clogged arteries in my heart and some of my smaller blood vessels into parts a man doesn't like to think about got plugged up too. I put on an extra fifty pounds in ten years without hardly noticing.

My wife has me on one of those Keto fat burning diets and that is working. I joined Planet Fitness and quit eating breakfast, which I hardly miss anymore. Just a word tot he wise. When you retire you have to make some major life style adjustments and a great place to begin is with your diet and exercise habits.
