My weight loss

Updated:

I posted some time ago about working on losing weight. I forgot when it was, last year some time I think when I started using apple cider vinegar with mother daily. Any how it was about 18 to 24 months ago my weight was at 252 pounds give or take a few. Since that time I have continued taking the apple cider vinegar daily with Old Orchard pineapple orange drink which contains 5 grams of carb per serving. I have been watching my carb intake and cutting way back on starchy foods. Consume very little sweet snack food. I sometimes take a couple chocolate chip cookies and sandwich a good serving of peanut butter between them. Once in awhile a half serving of a cinnamon bun with peanut butter spread across the top. Hardly any bread or potatoes at all anymore. Substitute cottage cheese to take the place of potatoes. 

My current weight is down to 212 pounds. waist line has dropped about two inches. Time for some new pants of the appropriate waist size.

May have a day of celebration when I break below the 200 mark. Big Grin

Was to the doctor about a month ago and all appears to be healthy according to the blood test results. Blood pressure was low so under doctors orders the blood pressure medication has been discontinued.

Would like to get down to 185 pound or there about. It has been about 60 years since I weighed 185 pounds. Something like a 38 inch waist line.

Now if I can discover something to reverse aging, get rid of arthritis and rebuild the skeletal frame to when I was 18 years old would be nice. Green laugh

Still have a full head of hair yet. It has only slightly thinned the past few years. Full head of gray hair. Big Grin Started graying in my late twenties.

Thanks sully.
After I posted this I was thinking that taking proper care of your bodies needs is like taking proper care in nutrition and disease control of a flower or vegetable garden.

Diet may seem weird to some but if it works for you, it's so weird after all!
