I Want To Feel Young Again Like You

e other day, I received a rather nice complement from a colleague who noted my excellent shape and fitness. Let me tell you, staying in shape at this level is a lot of work, it’s a huge sacrifice, but I feel worth it. But, not being a fitness consultant or personal trainer I wondered exactly what advice could I give that would work for almost anyone who wants to lose weight, tone up and stay healthy? Let’s talk.
First, my colleague asks me; “So in addition to your exercise routine do you eat a special diet? I am just trying to watch what I eat and pay attention to portion control. I want to feel good when I look in the mirror. I don’t think I will ever look like the Statue of David but then again he is dead and I am alive.”
Yes of course, he’s right. And, here is the advice I gave him and I’d be glad to share with you today. You see, I eat smoothies with vegetables and fruit, with isolate protein powder, and a lot of homemade soup. I also watch my calories, but not as much as I used to. But let me say this; if you’ll cut your calorie intake to 2300 calories per day, walk/jog 3.2 miles per day, then boost that up to 2 walks per day, you’ll lose and keep off 35 lbs in 2-months.
I also recommend you cut out wheat products and sodas, no beer or alcohol. Your gut bacteria will change in about 2.5 weeks and you won’t crave all the BS processed foods in about 20-30 days. But you have to stay with this plan for at least 60-days before you’ll be happy with the results, then once you do get lighter, you can up the exercise and start hitting the weights in about 45-days.
