My weight has been stagnant give or take the odd kg for over a year . When you reach my age - 64 - I feel when you get the food intake and portion sizes under control you really need to try and address exercise even though with me I have a fairly manual job.
From 2 Jan I have started 4 x per week for 45 mins to 1 hour via You Tube going back to Zumba . I no longer want to snack as if I am making effort to exercise and also no milky coffee - just water most of the day then the exercise puts me in a different mindset .
In 2 weeks with a few tweaks like the water and a bit more walking I have lost 3.2kg with no problems. Hard to keep this up but I certainly know what works . Can’t see this weight loss being continual as my body will get used to this but my clothes fit better and I feel energised.
I am 5ft 1 now at 63kg so not really at an ideal but at my age the weight can come off the wrong places and age me more if I went much lower .
