Getting in shape 2020

[Blue J]

I'm back down to a loose 36" Waist. I eat far fewer calories than I used to.

2 eggs and a Soy-sausage, for breakfast, 100 calorie roasted cashew snack, Salad and Veggie patty for lunch, and a granola bar in the afternoon. Dinner is a low carb veggie dish or occasionally a chicken breast or turkey burger. Fish/Shrimp for Sunday dinner. Eating less has been the ticket for me.

I still walk and work in the yard daily. The garden is cranking out a fresh supply of tomato's and peppers and roses. I have not stepped on a scale so I can't tell ya the weight. I feel much better than before.

Nice work Jimbo.  It's a very simple equation, just takes discipline. 

My wife and I blew it out the first two weeks but got it under control and have been eating salmon, chicken, lean red meat, veggies, qunioa, brown rice, etc.  We have one cheat meal a week like pizza.  I workout using dumbbells 4 days a week and get in as much walking as I can tolerate.  I'm down 11lbx from Nov 19 and 6 or so from COVID era.  Decided last night to make the extra push to drop 8 more in July.

Who is still working out?

I'm just getting back into it. Took a few months off and then the pandemic hit and then working from home, back to bad eating habits, drinking a little more than I should blah, blah blah. I started perfecting my round belly again. Gained 14 lbs.

 

I thought about it the other day, then decided to think about something else. I'll resume when the buggy is done.

Hopefully I dont Tripp over those words later...

Be careful.

I have been going. Just started back running from surgery the last few weeks.

I forgot about your leg! Hope that is going well. I was joking about the "resuming when my buggy is done"

Well, I guess “ getting In shape”  means your BP as well.  I spent 6 hours in the ER wed.  Went in because I coiuodnt catch my breath and was worn out walking 20 feet to the bathroom.
  Found out BP was 210/160 and resting heart rate was 110.
ER dr gave me PX for bp meds until I got to it dr.  I have an appoint Thursday.
  I spent wed thru sun on the couch doing nothing. Went back to work today. BP is still high but  I feel 100% better than I did at the ER.

Yep, I've had high BP for almost 20 years now. Been on medication since around the age of 34. Sometimes diet can help but, most of the time it takes a little pill to keep it straight.

That is really high Kevin did they let you leave before it came down?
You need to keep an eye on that from now on.

Yeah, incredible...thank goodness you got to the ER.

If you're going to buy a home BP tester, the full arm cuff ones are the way to go.  I have a wrist one, and it's not trustworthy.  I also prefer the non battery powered ones.

No, that’s why I was there so long. They were about to admit me
