I eat SMALL quantities of EVERYTHING. When eating meat of any kind, I try hard to eat larger quantity of veggies. I can not get enough of filet mignon and pork ribs at Longhorn Steakhouse, with sides of Asparagus and sweet potato. But that is once in a month treat.
Secret to my good health at age 84 is (IMHO) daily brisk walk for 20 minutes with 1 Lb wrist weights on each hand. Just had my 4 month blood work last week at Quest lab. Saw the doctor today to go over results. Everything is perfect. My out of pocket medical expenses are ZERO. On doctors advice I take 5mg Statin pills on M-W-F. Only other meds is 10 mg Lisinopril daily, to counteract my frequent indulgence on pizza from restaurants. My body likes to hoard sodium.
