I’m in Biloxi, Mississippi. It was about 100 degrees with high humidity today. I really have to walk inside the air-conditioned mall.
Hubby had worse numbers than this after robotic prostrate surgery. Poached egg and oatmeal for breakfast, salad and 3 times aweek fish for lunch, and very light supper. Lifted weights in garage. Dropped 30 lbs and great numbers now.
Yeouch. I can't take walking in heat either. Search for an older gym with A/C & wooden floors maybe. Another idea is can you swim? Seriously it does much less impact on the joints and you get a lot more workout in a shorter period of time.
Love you and your wife. We need you to be on your game. Walk. Go up and down stairs. If you can’t walk the mall, walk your grocery store, just keep moving. I am older than you but at your age I had terrible numbers and I just started moving, not sitting, just moving. Clean out the garage, the living room, the bedroom, just move. Don’t drink soda, coffee with cream, do drink water or tea. Don’t eat chips eat yogurt. Take fish oil tablets and joint tablets like Triple Flex. You can also think of the exercises you did while in service to our Country and do those when you can. Bread is a problem, eat sandwiches on pita bread preferably a Flax,OatBran, whole wheat pita bread with low sodium turkey and a low sodium cheese.
God Bless you and your dear wife and may you live a long time.
