Are we acting our age?

How do most seniors act? What does it mean to act old? We can't be young again, but it doesn't mean we have to act "old."

How did we act when we were kids? We ate all the time, we moved and moved more. We rode bikes, played ball, played tag, ran, walked, climbed, wrestled and we got lots of rest. Then we ate.

The KEY to weight control is to raise metabolism, the rate at which our bodies burn calories. In other words, we need to act like kids again!

The important things:
1. Split your calorie goals between 3 meals and 2 snacks a day.
2. Split calories 30% LEAN protein, 30% GOOD fats, 40% GOOD carbs at every meal and snack.
3. Exercise 30-45 minutes every day (intensity depends on our individual situation). The more we do the more we can do...

Be a kid.....
