I am down to forty seven percent body fat from fifty percent body fat. I have increased my exercise to two hours a day. One hour a day was not allowing me to lose weight. Two women at the gym mentioned that I had lost weight. Why can’t I just accept the compliment and say thank you? I have to say, “I only lost five pounds….” Body fat is more important.
I am using my perseverance that helped me earn two electrical engineering degrees, raise two college graduate children as a single mother to get myself healthy. I want to get off of high blood pressure and statins. I believe they are both related to my obesity. Fortunately, my fasting blood sugar level is eighty. Years ago it was seventy.
I am using dietpower software to track my nutrition and calories. A spinach salad with tomatoes, feta cheese, (1 ounce, I measure), red onions, 2 olives and sometimes one tablespoon of poppy seed dressing, (75 calories), add 2 wild salmon patties from frozen and I get an A in dietpower. Unfortunately, when I drink 350 ml of white wine, it goes down to a C. Dietpower tells me I will make my end of June goal of two hundred and twenty pounds. My goal for July will be another ten pounds.
This will be the summer of my content!
