Personal Fitness 2019.06.28

Lost a pound. Put 32 miles on my bike since Wednesday. My A1C is back in the normal range! Doctor wants me to stay on my meds for another three months and if my numbers still look good then I can drop the metformin (diabetes) and lisinopril (high blood pressure)!

Next post on Monday.

What is this all about?
I am 54, obese, diabetic, and had neck surgery at the end of May 2018. Above is a dashboard view of my progress towards my fitness goals. I will be updating this dashboard in subsequent posts. I welcome questions and encouragement.

Fitness Strategies:
1. Intermittent Fasting - I am only eating between the hours of 11am and 7pm, fasting the other 16 hours each day.

2. Riding my ebike to and from work and errands on weekends.

3. Regular posting on my social media streams for accountability and hopefully to inspire others.
