Eggs are a delicious, nutritious meal - carton

Eggs – a Delicious, Nutritious Powerhouse Meal

Fit and Strong, Food and Drink

I must say that one of my favorite foods is eggs. They are delicious, nutritious and versatile! For many people, eggs are a favorite type of breakfast. I like my eggs scrambled, poached, fried, and boiled. Other than making some cereal or toast, eggs was one of the first foods I ever learned to cook*. Not only are eggs delicious and easy-to-prepare, they also offer a lot of health benefits. Eggs are packed with protein. A single large egg contains about 6 grams of protein, making it one of the most protein-dense foods available. Protein is essential for the body as it aids in muscle development, tissue repair, and overall growth. We have all heard many times how especially important it is for women over 50 to get...

Gardening as exercise - drapes of wisteria in early May

Do You Count Gardening as Exercise?

Are you a garden lover? If so, perhaps this is one of the reasons you've decided to stay fit and strong. One of my "whys" for getting strong is to be able to garden for hours without pain or being uncomfortable, but can I really count gardening as exercise? UPDATE: Parade Magazine posted this on Nov 6, a week after I wrote this article: If You Want To Live to 100, Aging Experts Say You Should Take Up This Hobby ASAP. Please note, I don't consider Parade Magazine to be the best source of health and fitness news, but it was interesting to me that it was gardening. The writer, Emily Laurence, is a journalist and health coach. Trimming back overgrown tree branches, moving large clumps of...

Keeping a Fitness Mindset

Fit and Strong, Hiking

October is a month that I traditionally have a tough time keeping a fitness mindset. In years past, at the end of September, I participated in the Akron Marathon in a relay team or by running the half (2015 & 16 the team; 2017 & 2018 the half.) After that goal was achieved and October arrived, I was always felt a let down from goal achievement and a bit like taking a break. I haven't done a running race since the 2018 half, but still find that October's weather tends to make me feel like staying inside and less like enjoying outdoor fitness activities. Having Peanut (my dog) really helps me to get out and walk. This weekend I was looking forward to the color changes...

Getting Steps in Autumn

Fit and Strong, Hiking

One of my goals this time of year is to be outside and enjoy nature. I find that it's easy to get plenty of steps walking in nature and it's easy to get the steps when you're not thinking about it. Lately I've done some hiking and talking with friends. It's always a pleasure to walk and talk. It's also one of the prettiest times in nature here in Northeast Ohio -- Fall! I was lucky to be out in sunny warm weather and still get to see trees just beginning to change. One of my walks was at Hudson Springs Park, not too far from where I live. Jill and I took a short walk around Hudson Springs Lake with our dogs, Penny and Peanut....

I had an awesome lunch over the weekend of veggies with protein. It was delicious. It seems like all the vegetables are becoming ripe and are really tasting especially good to me right now. Maybe it is just that time of year! By this photo you might think I didn't get enough protein ,but I added a couple of ingredients at the end of cooking and after I took this photo that really boosted the protein levels in my meal. Here's my recipe for these delicious veggies. No surprise, I sautéed them on the stove. To prepare this meal, first I pulled out the cutting board and a sharp knife. Heated up the pan with some extra virgin olive oil. Chopped and sliced the following veggies: Onions Peppers: red,...
