Happy Weekend, My FS Peeps!
OK, so I am so proud of myself right now, I could cry with joy! NSV - I just got home from my THIRD day IN A ROW at Orange Theory Fitness.
This is a big deal because I have not done three in a row since before Covid, I had two total hip replacements in 2020, and will be 66 years old in May!
My favorite trainer who has known me over six years said, "Woo-Hoo, HCB, way to make a come-back!"
REMEMBER: FUNCTIONAL FITNESS is more important than the Idiot Box number!
Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle - Tom Venuto
Shorter Range Goals: * Down on the Idiot Box while rebuilding muscle * Bodyfat% reading with trainer once weight is down * Drink at least 10 cups of fresh water/fluids daily * Continue HIIT mixed in with weight lifting three to five days a week * Keep up the training notebook to achieve progressive overload
Longer Range Goals: *Bodyfat at 27% or less *Longer range body fat goal is 25% - which at my age is great! *Maintain 160lbs or less staying under goal weight in 2021 *Increased strength, endurance and flexibility during workout

All this hard work and diet change-up has got to lead to a loss on the Idiot Box for you (which you may see as less important than functional fitness, but it IS still important. There are plenty of studies regarding illnesses at over 25% BMI). Very happy to see your increased mobility and new WOE, and hope that this time it will knock you into your goals!

@JustBananas - I have been on this site for many many years and been through many different WOE and activity levels. This is not "new" to me or my first rodeo. I am doing well in my own estimation and will continue to do so in my own time and pace. I appreciate your concern, and I do know what I am doing for now. After two surgeries in the last 9 months, I am kicking it.

That is great! I always feel better after I have a good workout! 👍💜
