Very impressive, but, why do you want to lose 20 more pounds? Just
curious if you have some specific reason.

Carrying excess weight is not beneficial to the heart long-term
particularly in older people. As a buddy said it is like cycling with a
20 pound bag of potatoes. Lots of people said I would look sickly
and thin if I lost 40 pounds. When I lost 20 pounds it was hardy
noticeable, still a bit of a gut. I believe it I lose another 20 pounds
it should about right. Time will tell. I sure feel good after losing
the first 20.

Exercise - I started running/jogging very slowly 4 to 5 times times a
week for 30 minutes. Running/jogging very slowly not at a gym but
around the city block I live on in whatever clothes - sweatpants/jeans -
I had on. Nothing fancy. Because of my age and poor physical shape, I
got up at 5:00 am, walked to the corner store which was about 5 blocks
away and back to put my body in motion. Then I did my run/jog.

Food - I have a large glass of orange juice upon awakening. While out
running/jogging, I cooked in its own juices (no oil) a half a frozen
boneless, skinless chicken breast (usually just over 100g) over very low
heat (no. 2 on a gas stove) for about 30 minutes in a covered cast iron
dutch oven (fire safety).

Upon my return after a 1 block cool down, I eat my chicken breast along
with some low starch green vegetables and/or possibly a huge green salad
which consists of 1 tomato, 1 clump of lettuce, half cup of chopped
celery, 1 chopped carrot, and one tablespoon of mayo mixed with mustard
of choice and/or sometimes thinned out with vinegar, sprinkled with
freshly ground black pepper.

Lunch consists of 2 cups of mixed vegetables, bits of cooked chicken and
a handful of cooked macaroni.

Dinner consisted of the salad I previously mentioned.

I'd rather go to prison.

For life.
