I use to weigh 250 pounds and my lower back hurt so bad I was almost disabled. It took a month of physiotherapy exercises to lessen the pain.
One day I was preparing a 3 o'clock snack of sliced apples and cheese wedges. I flipped the cheese package over and was astonished at the amount of fat content it contained. I though cheese was a healthy food. Never trust a cow to tell you the truth.
After that I read the dietary information on all things before eating. I lost 30 pounds in 3 years and my back no longer bothers me.
The secret to weight loss is not dieting, just eating healthier. Avoid foods with high fat content like dairy products and desserts. Want something sweet. Try pineapple, grapes, strawberries, etc. Replace soft drinks with water (best) or fruit juices. Soft drinks do not quench your thirst, and the sugar wakes up your stomach.
Your stomach sends the same signal whether it is hungry or thirsty. Try a glass of water and wait 15 minutes. Riding a motorcycle will dehydrate you. Grab a bottle of water at those gas stops, not a chocolate bar. Drink what you can and put the rest in the tank bag for the next flat butt stop.
Losing weight is one of the hardest things to do if you are over 50. There are a couple of reasons. You don't play organized sports anymore, and you probably don't exercise. You have also developed 50 years of bad eating and drinking habits. Every doctor you have visited lately has probably told you to lose weigh and exercise. Why do they all keep telling you the same thing?
