50+ thread

Shoulders are one of the worse things to rehab I'm told.
One Good thing is I can get tested results online.
My a1c is UNDER TARGET.
The hospital gave me a target and online the target is .5 less. So I'm kinda upset about 2 different goals. But I'm still under the lower target.
Colesterol is a ongoing issue I'm my family. I'm real close but my good stuff is low. Like it was many years ago. And doing what they said made it worse. But that's ok. Not going to take any more meds.
Lake tomorrow. Mowing lawn, registering Harley and grandson today. Going to try to find some tomato and cucumber plants to plant in a week or two. Keep them in the garage for now.

Hope you find a solution to your levels.
Stay well sir

if you would like to raise your hdl raise your fiber intake and exercise i get on the treadmill and walk fast and uphill if you don't do this already

 

Morning all.

 

Heheheh that's the kicker. I did that years ago. Lost weight down to my black belt training days. Exercised. Diet. You know the whole thing. Felt like crap. My good stuff went DOWN.... I told them to go screw and stopped everything. Gained my weight back and had all my energy back. Not going to do that again. I walk like 2 miles a day. Pick up 150 lb pieces of vehicles. Push vehicles etc. sweat most of the day. And they want me to exercise AFTER THAT.. Yeup Sure. I need to rest for the next day.

 

Oh yea they told me to exercise. So I did. Lost so much weight so fast my food intake couldn't keep up with my body output. So I stopped their crap diet. Feel so much better except for the joint stuff. Gained my weight back. I would waste away to nothing doing what they said. My output Is literally like a runner.
I do not stop. I do not drink regular soda anymore and I stay away from birthday cake. I eat anything I want but don't gorge myself anymore. That's the only thing different I do now.

 

like i always tell people different things work for different people. i lost rt at 100 pounds before diagnosed and people ask how i did it? i tell them weight watchers but you may not have the same results it just worked for me. like my wife doesn't get it when i'm working i don't do the treadmill. i spend all day block sanding or painting and climbing up and down ladders i don't need the extra work out and my dr agrees.

 

Dr. Don't have a clue about tech work. I told them to follow me around for an hour. Lol

 

yeah i tried to explain and he really didnt know what to day toher than agreeing that i'm deffinately active haha. if i get away from that kinda work and do something less physical i'll work out

 

Yep, on my feet all day, lifting moving, walking, solving problems. Backpack 20 to 30 miles and I am 40 lbs overwieght. Diets don't work, it's like you said, Mike, eat what you want but don't over do it. Fat, dumb and happy.

 

Your far from Dumb buddy.
Fat and happy. That works... ROFLMAO

 

Good Morning !!!

Overcast and cooler temps this morning and should reach the low 80's today

I've also been trying to lose some added lbs of fat I've been collecting over the last few years LOL!! . I'm 6'4 and right now at 240bs , trying to get down to 230lbs . What's funny is my BF % is right about 26-28% . I don't want to get to lean like a friend of mine who's 56 yrs old 186lbs BF 13% , that's too much

So if I can get to 230lbs and 25%BF I'll be happy

 

good morning i hear was an interesting game last night

 

you know your bored when you clean house just to have something to do

 

so at almost 50 i work my ass off (when i'm working) i exercise, i eat a low fat high fiber diet with limited meat intake, don't hardly ever drink, my only vice is chewing tobacco so why all the health problems? sometimes i fell like it's all just bull shit

 

I'll just leave this here...

 

Labs done....EKG normal. Conferred with doctor as far as how things will go day of surgery. Got all the instructions and orders. All I have to do is take a bottle of laxative the day before, not eat anything after 1PM day before, then report to surgery admissions desk @ 10AM the morning of.

Nurse who did EKG looked very much the little hottie! Was seemingly unimpressed with 58 year old bald fat man.
