Oops, Chartres was 289 steps…Sorry, I guess it was wishful thinking manifesting as a slip of the pinky!

Well, you are not alone. I do alot of brisk walking every other night for at least one hour walking around the promenade area of the cruise ship. Watching sunset, sea and dolphin and whales. It can be chilly though brisk walking in Alaska, Mediterranean and Scandinavia.

Just like my doctor in Sta Rosa , Laguna said, “Better take preventive medicine than get sick with stroke, high blood, high cholesterol and high uric acid”. But I said ” I don’t have any of those!!” and she said it can happen so better take precaution and work out alot. I’m only in my 40’s!!!

Nevertheless have patience because we are not getting any younger and we love good food.

I have a tongue-in-cheek post that talks about a “Paris Miracle Diet” here: anesthesioboist.blogspot.com/2007/08/gastronomic-delights-in-france.html. Lose pounds by eating cheese twice a day and drinking wine with every meal! (Joke lang). Ever since I got back from our gastronomic vacation I had to reset my stairmaster: Chartres Cathedral setting, 189 steps; Eiffel Tower setting, 670 steps… :)

ok MM. want to lose weight fast? follow this:
– no carbs. like rice & pasta at dinner.
– eat protein/carb brkfast. full lunch protein & veg dinner.
– eat fruits, protein shakes in between meals.
– no desserts/sugar. once a week is ok.
– do spikes when you do cardio. do circuit when doing weights, with 90sec rest between circuit. this spikes metabolism, burns more fat during and after excercise.

bon chance!

I once attended a cooking demo where the cook was in great shape, and he said that the only way he could eat the way he does is to exercise and train for a triathlon (minimum of 2 hours a day). Since you don’t like commercial gyms, you may want to invest in a trainer. A human being who will call you up at 5:30 am to run around and do weights; force you to exercise, like a gnat buzzing in your ear.

You’re right, it’s just a matter of balancing good food and moderate exercise. I go through weird phases … lots of dieting … then I turn to lots of exercise, sports, gym … then sometimes I just go all out eating everything while being a sloth. Best of luck with whatever method you choose to the madness of weight loss!
