I am 67 years old and maintaining a 287 pound weight loss. I am trying to decide whether to go for that last 50 pound loss that will put me perfectly on the doctor's weight loss chart. Well, I guess I've actually decided to go for it because I have now joined SP. I just don't know if it is reasonable to expect more.

Member Since: 4/9/2019

Fitness Minutes: 6,285

My Goals:
To get stronger physically and to reduce my waistline to a healthier measurement. Possibly to lose 50 pounds.

My Program:
 Strength training four times a week, chair yoga twice a week, tai chi twice a week, and walk at least 40 minutes every day.(I am retired. Can you tell?)


Personal Information:
I am now a retired attorney who practiced law trying cases all over the state weighing 502 pounds! But when you are under 40 years old, you can get away with many dangerous habits with seemingly no repercussions. I slowly lost weight as I got older and wiser.

    Wow, I hadn't realized popsicles were an option for preparing for colonoscopy's (since I'm one who has not yet had it done.)!! But what got me interested in popsicles was last summer when I was so nauseous after chemotherapy. I was doing chemo starting in July and the heat was getting to me... at one point, I moved in to my mom's house because the smells of the cat litter box and having two sweaty dogs was more than my system could handle. At some point the idea of popsicles seemed appealing after several weeks of not being interested in food. My mom got these really small popsicle molds from the thrift store, but they were like one ounce sized, intended for toddlers I think. This summer I just decided to skip that extra fuss and aggravation trying to keep those tiny pieces clean, and donated them back to the thrift store. So I've been shopping and checking prices all summer. I'm sure they will be cheaper later on this summer or fall as they try to get the summer stuff sold off but oh well, I was willing to take it on when it was on lightning deal! I have also made some color free popsicles using plain coconut water and smushed up bits of fruits like strawberries, peaches, melons, whatever I had or was in the mood for, and that seemed to work well. I'm like you.... didn't want to deal with artificial food coloring etc.
