look good naked...2017

Welcome to November, 2017

This is me again this time sitting at a pretty solid 291 pounds.  How did I get here, how can you get to where you are wanting to be at. I can tell you what I have learned.
1) More muscles means more calories being burned at rest.
at 300 pounds I can lose 3 pounds every couple of days pretty quickly.  Being over 50 exercising more often is of paramount importance.  Diet.
What can I say about this.  Easily skinny people need more fats.  Athletic people are fine.  Us endothelial pear shaped bodies our friend is fats, carbohydrates are the villain of this story.
Given our brains burn carbohydrates for fuel, we need them just not the corn syrup version available in such massive quantities here in America.

If you are skinny have an extra al you can eat buffet this month.  If your just fat, do exercise, use your body by not always parking close to the entrance at your favorite store.  Too much muscle, like too much money, not happening.  As we get older we adjust to our "energy (calorie conserving) saving" actions.  Not a good thing if you want to feel and look your best.

Enjoy your holidays and eat well with family and friends if you are so blessed this Thanksgiving and Christmas

Looking Good Naked

Well we started this journey together over a year ago.  During that time I kept the faith and kept training.These are current pictures of myself at 300 pounds and 55 years of age.  consistent effort has benefits.

What about you how much has you body improved.  When we become older adults, Nature tends to cruel and starts to weaken our bodies, bones,immune system.  We get older.  If your like me you are staying active and fighting old age.

Some people however reduce their activity levels .  We spend a lot of our lives working for a pay check.  for most people that is just enough money to get by.  Then maybe we retire and our income drops by 50%.  

The good news is we have more time for our families and ourselves.

So now what do you retire to the living room, watch T.V. and rust away?  

I find most of us middle aged and older adults make the decision to maybe join that gym and start to use it.  When we actively decide to pursue a healthier lifestyle (keep physically active),  Our efforts are rewarded.

Soon you find smoking no longer is appealing neither are many 

other things we did during our 50 hour work weeks.  If you did make that new years resolution to "Look good Naked", congratulations.  

No matter what your calendar age is, choosing to become

more physically active and healthy is a gift for ourselves and our families.

I'll visit again with you later.
