I am a 69 year old guy and I try and exercise regularly as well as watch what I eat. I despise the word "diet" as it is short for deprivation.

How many people around my age (men and women) have a fitness and eating regimen that would be easy for a guy like me to follow/

Thanks

I'd suggest talking to your doctor about it as he has your medical history and can give you a workout plan and diet that is appropriate to you and/or reffer you to a specialist/fitness professional.
Contrary to popular belief, no two men are alike and what may work for one will be detrimental to another, especially past the age of 60.
A light breakfast and dinner and a substantial lunch are still recommended. So is jogging but again, your doctor would know better... if she/he isn't a total charlatan.
Good luck and be well.

I guess keeping up fitness and diet is personal responsibility for one self.
Do not forget Detox regime.

Since January 2 I have cut carbs and sugar and have bumped up my weightlifting at the gym I have lost 25 pounds and my biceps are pretty impressive for an old lady ( have had men tell me)

Wanted to tone up and add more muscle so that why i eat mostly protein works for me.....

Oh and I now weight 125 don't think I need to lose anymore weight I can't afford to keep buying smaller clothes lol

Exercise can and should be done at all ages im a certified personal trainer from Australia CURRENTLY in Goa. My oldest client is 82 my youngest just 14.consult a qualified professional a doctor is when you are sick he is not what you need

Totally agree , join a gym ,most gyms will do a fitness evaluation , and advise you on how to use the different resistance machines and free weights properly, don't try to overdo it and once you are comfortable and know your goals get yourself a personal trainer most gyms know of people who train.
