RAF293: Living to 100 and Beyond - 2022

Running: A FEVER ·

2022/02/02

It's time for the perennial favorite top 10 list of the oldest people ever. Living to be 100 is still very rare. According to newretirement.com, worldwide, only 6 in 100,000 will do it. So how much of this really applies to us? I hope it applies to me, but I really don't know. Right now, there's no formula for living to 100. Just not enough data. The people on this list are those for which there is documented proof of their age. I'll give you the whole list in countdown fashion, the changes since

RAF292: Struggling for Life

Running: A FEVER ·

2022/01/26

In this episode, the dietician recommended 64oz +8oz per pound you want to lose. I recently read that Tom Brady (see episodes 120,121,122,129,174) drinks between 14 and 37 glasses of water per day, sometimes more. There are so many opinions on how much you need. Personally, I should probably drink as much as I can. I don't think I could drink too much and I'm definitely not getting enough now.

RAF291: Track and Learn

2022/01/19

Here we are 28 episodes into the Shattering-the-Yoyo series. I'm not sure how, in episode 56, I got from saying I'm going to stay the same weight for six months, to "I need to ease down". Seems kind of like I was cheating. I was already in really good shape at this point. There should have not been a lot of urgency to lose weight, and the battle for metabolism was in full swing.

RAF290: More Meals to Lose Weight

Running: A FEVER ·

2022/01/12

I am starting to notice my step count now that I've started back to working in the office and wearing my fitness watch. It's a great reminder of how stagnant I can be. I have been eating yogurt again, sometimes have the oatmeal for breakfast, though I really like the Bicak breakfast, the "Egg McMuffin". I got a little burned out on oatmeal, and chili as well.

RAF289: Weight Loss and Spinal Meandering

Running: A FEVER ·

2022/01/05

Welcome to 2022! And happy new year to everyone! In episode 54 I sought medical advice for the first time for my neck problem. I still have the problem, but the arm pain has not returned since I had my physical therapy back then. I have also gained back the weight and that can't be good for my spine. I do notice that there are a bunch of aches and pains that go with being heavy. My knee and feet hurt more. I have occasional back pain, but not often. Anyway, I eventually found out the true nature of

RAF288: Aches and Pains

2021/12/29

I had my biometric screening recently for 2021. This is when the company "incentivizes" me to come in and get weighed, and swabbed and stuck, and measured. Like anything, you can look at it as punishment or reward. Just doing the screening gets me $10 per payday, testing tobacco-free gets me some more, and more for a low enough blood pressure and BMI. I still do have a blood pressure issue in addition to my high BMI. Regular exercise helps lower blood pressure, so I'm starting to do some of that,

RAF287: What Drives Me

Running: A FEVER ·

2021/12/22

I think the calorie log is really important. Not that writing the stuff down in itself is valuable, but by doing that, yes, we learn how many calories are in the foods we eat. Write them down even if you know you're going off diet. That way, the next time you get those 20 chicken nugget's you'll know how many calories that is.

RAF286: Nature is Huge

Running: A FEVER ·

2021/12/15

I've eaten a lot of oatmeal in my dieting in the last few years and I've learned a lot about the different types. Many instant oatmeal products contain sugar. And steel-cut oats have more calories than plain instant, but because they have a lower glycemic index they are a better use of those calories. And I can still get variety by adding my own flavors like cinnamon or adding a little fruit just for flavor. Read the full post at http://RunningAFEVER.com/284

RAF285: Vicious Cycle

Running: A FEVER ·

2021/12/08

Episode 50 is a really good example of adapting to circumstances in order to stay on my health journey and maintain a healthy lifestyle. I have a tendency to want to not do something if I can't do it the same way I always do. But I was able to break out of this by finding a place to exercise. In this case, I got on a treadmill, which I had rarely done in the past. Read the full post at http://RunningAFEVER.com/285 Photo by Andrea Piacquadio from Pexels

RAF284: Six Meal Plan Established

Running: A FEVER ·

2021/12/01

Continuing to battle metabolic slow down due to rapid weight loss. I don't want to dismiss the constant mentions of the beauty of nature that I find in these episodes when I was spending a lot of time walking outside in the beautiful park near my home. I have thought about getting a bike, but I'm still hoping I'll get my foot back in shape quickly. But I think that is a big psychological boost, taking in the beauty of nature as much as I can living in a city. Read the full post at

RAF283: Be a Turkey, Not a Chicken

Running: A FEVER ·

2021/11/24

Welcome to the 5th year of Running: A FEVER! Several episodes discuss the importance of water and how much you need. Currently, I'm not being very intentional about that. Should be easier since I am working from home still most of the time. I am drinking, but usually, it's coffee or soda. The standard menu during this time is oatmeal, yogurt, chili, jerky. Metabolism continues to be an issue, which is why I am now trying to be very deliberate and patient about the rate of my weight loss. UPDATE

RAF282: Obesity and Health Insurance

2021/11/17

The period when I was consulting with a dietician on a regular basis was a good learning time for me. That was really what it was about, so after a while, I really felt like the sessions were not as valuable to me. If you're taking lessons on doing anything, there comes a time when you have to evaluate whether you're using your time valuably -- is that a word? I think I may have just made it up. I am still using smart balance and olive oil mayonnaise. Every now and then I find a healthier food

RAF281: Walking Shoes

2021/11/10

Welcome to the 18th in our series shattering the yoyo. Episode 46 was really about the external factor, motivation. And that's important to what I'm doing now, but the key word is DOING. So the philosophy is great, but what I am really interested in now is the action I was taking. I recommend if you haven't heard the episode, that you go back and listen, that's RunningAFEVER.com/46, IF you want to hear some great motivational philosophy.

2021/11/03

It's interesting to hear this, and I remember how good it felt to fit into those clothes. I felt pretty good, and you can tell I was really enjoying life, I was commenting on the beauty all around me, the spillway, the water, ducks, dogs.

2021/10/27

I feel like I really am learning as I listen to this, even though it was the tail end of the Biggest Loser contest. At that point, I was talking the talk but not yet walking the walk. I couldn't resist starving myself for the contest.

RAF278: Pride Goeth Before a Fall

Running: A FEVER ·

2021/10/20

So here is the problem. You can hear by the sound of my voice, though I am trying to speak to myself with this rational idea of losing weight slowly, gaining health, not losing weight, etc. There is still a kind of pride there. And you know the old saying 'pride goeth before a fall'? Read the full post at http://RunningAFEVER.com/278 Photo by Tim Wildsmith on Unsplash

RAF277: Weeks to a Better Body Fat

Running: A FEVER ·

2021/10/13

At this point in my fitness journey, I did not have my own biometric impedance analyzer. I could get that measurement at my dietician, otherwise, I was just using BMI to estimate my body fat. Since then I have acquired a scale that gives me BIA as well. And right now, I don't have a body fat number because I just started using my scale again and that function is currently not working.

RAF276: Never Give Up

Running: A FEVER ·

2021/10/06

When I recorded this episode I had lost 50 pounds, more than ever, and I had a goal of losing 100 total within the year. That's probably twice as much as I should have lost. I think when I spoke with my cardiologist a few weeks ago, he said something like 3 or 4 pounds a month. So my goal of a pound a week is right in there.

2021/09/29

Being reasonable, having patience is a recurring theme in my diet and exercise work. I've been on both ends of each. Eating too much or too little, exercising too much or too little. You might say I am an expert at impatience. Read the full post at http://RunningAFEVER.com/275 Image by Robin Higgins from Pixabay https://tinyurl.com/robin275

One of the things you notice I'm doing is counting calories. I have not been doing this very accurately this time, and I need to have that done by the next time I do an episode.
