An update on exercise and nutrition. I’m 5 months into my new year and feeling strong. In January I was still running 3x a week with weight lifting on other days. I also began a “squat challenge”- 10 squats after every time I had to pee! That adds – Whew<\/p>\n

By March I was ready to dive in again to the original P90x videos.. They are long with too much talking, so I skip to the exercises. I’m coming up on day 80 and will add some running back in after a time off for my hip.<\/p>\n

I finished Keto, but have stayed lower carb\u00a0<\/em>–\u00a0not really counting those per say. I do choose fruit & veggies over grains & bread. 2 drinks I consume EVERY day: BCAA\/lemon\/apple cider vinegar (pre-workout)<\/em>. And a low-carb protein shake (post-workout<\/em>).<\/p>\n

50s haven’t been bad! My neck & back ache more but I attribute that to sitting poorly while typing, sewing, painting… Energy is good, I only wish I could visibly see more<\/em> of my muscles :\/<\/p>\n

Favorite snacks remain: raw nuts (toasted and mixed with Lily’s chocolate chips), Kirkland Nut Bars and any berries. ❤️ Goat or sheep hard cheese is a daily indulgence. We will be traveling to Spain this summer. I can’t wait to try their varieties.<\/p>\n

After 1\/2 a century,<\/em> my one discovery: I don’t need as many calories as I used to, so I try to make them count nutritionally – paying attention to what’s in my food and where it comes from is #1. Stick to\u00a0the garden.<\/em><\/p>\n

Eat something healthy!<\/p>\n
