I'm on losartan. I exercise at least 5 days a week at the gym and when it's nice out I go for long long walks. I'm gaining a lot of muscle but my stomach is not where I want it to be. It has shrank a lot but I guess I got to change the diet to get it flat.

You have to read to the end to find they recommend “ five hours of moderate exercise a week”

That would never work for me. Laugh out loud

My gal Tippy looks very similar. That dog is from the Internet, but Blue Heelers all have that mischievous “look”.
One of the reasons I have to use Internet pix is that Tippy will not sit still to be photographed. :-)

This entire stupid article neglects to mention how much to exercise. Why bother publishing it?

That's a beautiful dog, there. Me, I've got a big house, so I get plenty of exercise just being in it. Plus exercise equipment in various rooms. Plus yard work. Plus renovating/restoring other houses and running around looking for more of them to rescue. Plus looking after a small flock of elderly neighbors who depend on me for errands. Frankly, I think I need less exercise.
Cats sleep more than they are awake, and they have nine lives.

She’ll be 5 this month. I got her when she was 2, and we’re inseperable.

“Teenagers and those in their early 20s may be physically active but these patterns change with age,” study author and epidemiologist Kirsten Bibbins-Domingo from the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) explained in April 2021”
That’s why we pay babes like Kirsten Bibbins the BIG BUCKS.

I’m an “elderly neighbor”. :-)
But Tippy keeps me young. I end up visiting and attempting to motivate people who are MUCH younger than I am.
Saw Mick Jagger in May and he’s even older than I am. He puts me to shame. LOL!

Probably have what 80% of us FReepers have (me included) - Metabolic Syndrome. Best way to fix that is to cut back, or cut out, carbs.

That’s quite a lot. I walk about 5 miles, three or four times a week. I cannot imagine doing cardio for five hours a week.

“Experts” say I have to walk five miles a day (10,000 steps).
After a week, I was 35 miles away!
