My new improved regime

OK. Just read a book about preventing and reversing osteoporosis which I officially have in my lower back. I have osteopenia in my hips.
Here is my new regime to address osteoporosis issue and to lower my LDL by 100 points by end of January when I have my next blood test:

DAILY:
Yogurt salad for breakfast. See picture. It has 1 cup plain non fat yogurt, 30 almonds chopped,  5 prunes chopped, 1/2 apple chopped, 1 celery stalk chopped and whatever else I want to through in. Today I had grapes and half a cutie tangerine thrown in. Made one for John too.

Lunch: huge salad with sardines or canned salmon with bones.  Lots of usable calcium

Supper: variable...hopefully with lots of veggies.
Always oatmeal apples and cinnamon for dessert.

EXERCISE PLAN NOW: learn to use weights. Do stationary bike, hula hoop.

I would love to be super strong and weigh 140!!!

Remember. ..
Easy on salt. Limit protein. Scant scant scant sugar.

Best Motivational Speaker

Pope Francis in Cuba

I watched part of the mass. The huge choir sang such different songs and the accompanying music was also something I never heard before. Very energetic. I really liked it.
Also...the statue of the resurrected Christ intrigued me. They took away the cross but it still reminded one of the cross.

This is delicious.

Birds enjoy figs too

So on our other fig tree ( we have 2) the birds are in charge. Either a fig is not ripe enough or it has been half eaten by birds. The birds are so vigilant. They watch. For the perfrct state of ripeness and then eat.

Fig eating beetles
