Dang TH!
Your fitness for your age is fantastic.
I hope I am that lean in my Senior years.
Good job.
Thank you sir, I went from 228 to 190 lbs over the last 15 months, I never went on a diet, I just stopped eating when I wasn't hungry especially at night while watching TV. I also started back at the gym working out 3-5 days a week for the last 6 months, usually 1.5 hrs, aerobic and weight lifting. Now I get full sooner than I use to at meals, I rarely eat any kind of sweets, or chips or ice cream.
I took a break from the gym the last 2 weeks as my shoulders were starting to hurt, I thought it was because I was pushing too much weight, but after 2 weeks off I think it is both a combination of the weight and arthritis, I have had rotor cuff surgery on both shoulders. Doesn't hurt so bad that I need pain killers and rarely use Ibuprofen. Hot showers really help.
When I snack it is usually nuts and fruit, low sugar trail mix with almonds, peanuts, cashews, pecans, raisins, cranberries, strawberries, blue and black berries is what I usually snack on. Wife being Asian we eat Asian meals most time, lots of fish, lean pork, chicken, beans, low fat, low grease and lots of veggies. We eat a lot of home made soups, pork, chicken, beef and fish filled with cabbage, bell peppers, moringa, ginger and onions. Our rice cooker runs 24/7/365 days week with a equal mixture of brown, wild and jasmine rice.
