Happy Day, my FS Followers!

This month is my anniversary of joining FS in April 2012...that is nine years of health and fitness focus! I know and understand my body well even as I age gracefully. I always push for more - at the gym they call me "badass".

I have been at my goal weight at different times over the years, can maintain for a while and then seem to have something come up such as foot surgery, arm surgery and two full hip replacements!

Maintenance is a learned skill and I have several great role models here!
You all know who your are...

GOAL MACROS: Carbs 30-35% (TOTAL carbs under 100 grams)
Proteins 35-40% (over 100 grams)
Fats 25-30% (under 55 grams)
Calories under 1200 (with occasional tweaks)

Note to Self: FUNCTIONAL FITNESS is more important than the Idiot Box number!

Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle - Tom Venuto

Shorter Range Goals:
* Down on the Idiot Box while rebuilding muscle
* Bodyfat% reading with trainer once weight is down
* Drink at least 10 cups of fresh water/fluids daily
* Continue HIIT mixed in with weight lifting three to five days a week
* Keep up the training notebook to achieve progressive overload

Longer Range Goals:
*Bodyfat at 28% or less
*Longer range body fat goal is 26% - which at my age is great!
*Maintain 160lbs or less staying under goal weight in 2021-2022
*Increased strength, endurance and flexibility during workout

Excellent. 9 years. I think we'll all realize at some point that it is never over, there are always new things to learn, adjustments to make and challenges to overcome. Great nickname.

2007 for me

I've been here since my mom's bday, Nov 2015 (two years after her death). I think she was kicking me in the butt to get off my butt and stop sulking over her death. It's saved my life.
