I started trying to lose weight 10+ years ago and I would stay on it a while then drop off and gain back what I had lost plus some more, up down etc. Until this past January when I weighed in at 220 and I finally quit violating the ELEVENTH COMMANDMENT which is "DO NOT SHIT THY SELF" QUIT LYING TO YOURSELF and as Yoda said there is no TRY only DO so this past January I started to DO a weight loss program.
I was quite ill for the first 3 months of the doing with a serious respiratory problem but that appears to be solved now so my energy is returning and I can do things (work on my farm) without running out of breath. AND I have lost 47 pounds which also makes it easier to move, walk climb stairs etc.
I am no spring chicken, will be 74 in a little over 60 days, and with the covid virus I have stayed "locked down" with my two sons and a couple of other folks that are relatives and we are going to be SAFE from this virus because a couple of us would die if we got it in spite of all the medicine in the world.
I am a retired advanced practice registered nurse so I KNOW what to do to lose weight safely and in a healthy manner and I am determined that it willl not take 12 strong men to carry my casket when I do die. LOL

Doing pretty good on diet, but blood pressure is very low so actually ate a pinch of salt and it went back up a little bit. Have a urinary tract infection started on some medication. Still drinking 1 gallon of liquid per day.
Pretty well have a routine down on keeping calories down, keeping bowels working etc. and losing a bit of weight.
Fell two weeks ago, did a real face plant on concrete and bruised or cracked my right rib but is slowly improving. Keeping active around the place and increasing activities and exercises.
Covid virus is increasing in the US and over most of the world, California Oregon, Wyoming and colorado are burning to the ground and gulf cost has been hit again. Went through out alphabet and now are into the greek alphabet for storm names.
Politics are going crazy, and the world is in a turmoil for sure. I am staying safe and isolated, so are clay and his family and david's folks. Way too many people are tired of being safe so are going back to being "normal" and not wearing protection or being cautious. It amazes me how many people do not seem to understand the gravity of the situation.
The cops are killing blacks on video and there is a big racial thing going on with the right wing whites versus the Black Lives Matter group. A horrible divide between republicans and democrats and the up coming election may giive us a civil war. Thank goodness we are not living in a city. and are far enough out in the sticks we are most likely safe.
I am working on improving my COPD and my O2 sat is getting pretty good but am still using Oxygen at night instead of a CPAP

Losing 0.2 kg a Week

Had been drinking tap water which is "softened" with a saline solution, not realizing that I was blowing up with edema. After several days of good water, and medication for the edema it is about gone and my REAL weight is showing up. Still a little bit of edema evident in my lower legs but pretty much gone and my feet don't look like puffy little frogs.
My diet has not changed or the amount I have been eating so I knew the 180 that my scale showed yesterday afternoon was not valid.
Elderly people who are sensitive to sodium intake should be careful of city water which may be "softened" using sodium salts. It can cause many different medical problems. If you have edema (swelling) in your legs and feet consult your physician or health care provider.

general health is improving and I am much more active now, weight seems to be dropping off. Blood sugar is doing well so no problems there and no edema in my feet or legs.
My blood pressure is great and my pulse O2 is good and heart rate is in 60s and 70s. Sleeping better and my anxiety is decreased a great deal.
My face is wrinkling a great deal as I lose the weight and my boobs are really sagging as well as my belly, skin is not so elastic but it is what it is. Not looking for a hot date, and very satisfied with my kids and grandkids and they love me no matter what.
Pretty well have a routine down on what I eat though did eat a pizza the other night and don't feel guilty either LOL
