Cyber Security

This summer I moved back to my house to tidy things up after a period of absence from “home”. This fall I turned 72 years young. In the span of summer to fall I found myself getting out of a routine of healthy eating on a scale of 60/40, BAD HUH!!

I was overcome, attacked and hacked by GOOD, QUICK, EMPTY foods, thirst quenching COORS LIGHT beer after yard work or catching up with friends…it all was at the alarming rate of BAD…the weight thingy…12 lbs jumped me, took advantage, hiding in my body at obvious, noticeable real places that make it hard to HIDE POUNDS as FAT CELLS love belly buttons, love handles and ASS!!

These yummy foods, cold beers, actually focused into the radar of my eye sight, these foods actually caressed my taste buds, these foods actually found a resting place right at the level of my belly button and around to my love handles each way…as I can not see my ASS, I must assume that a few FAT CELLS found a home there also!!

I thought I was active enough with yard work, I live on a acre …so from some splitting wood, stacking it, some house upgrades, cleaning garage, etc, I did not work out like I should…LIKE, I did none!!

For me, I have been slowly fighting my 34 inch Wrangler’s at my gut level… this is when I realized CYBER SECURITY attacked me, hacked my lifestyle!! The psych of TV adds, hot bikini gals drinking Blue mountain COORS Light, juicy burgers from Micky D’s, quick easy meals and adds from Perkins or someplace you can enjoy a great meal…and many more adds.

THEN, I thought I got my game on again, I feel good, I go grocery shopping, BOOM…I get hit again by the “layout” of the store, bright, colorful posters tell me what to buy, great sales, little food stands to sample new stuff. Before I knew it, my cart is full, $100 plus I figured and I have little or no fruit, veggies or greens or GOOD STUFF to prepare and cook…I told myself, next time I will buy GOOD STUFF to cook instead of “fast foods”….next time, next time and next time again, comes and go, same thing happens…I finally put the brakes on, I told myself, STOP IT JOHN!!!!

By no means, am I saying this is horror-able, I just fell into the psych of marketing, I easily let my guard down…I enjoyed the easy way out of eating, and now I have to SHAVE off those extra pounds.

I want my ASS back, I want my good energy back, I want to taste GOOD STUFF when I eat, I want to work out again. I did not lose all of that, but, I do want to be the BEST I can be HEALTH WISE!! Cyber Security, go to “HELL”, I will get back into my “game on” and get back to my 90/10 of lifestyle.

I do have to add this…I have been told this many times over the many years that my good HEALTHY lifestyles does not make a person live longer…so why pretend I will live longer by some “dumb ass” reasoning I have, or by what people throw at me to debunk my lifestyle changes.

I do not argue that I may live longer or not…but I stand my ground that I live HEALTHIER, I am still “med free” because my lifestyle changes may have prevented or changed the course of some disease or outcome like a heart attack, prostate issues, diabetics, depression or blood pressure. I speak only for myself, I am not a doctor, I know my body, I know my attitudes. I have my annual physicals and blood work, PSA’s and I come through “clean and mean”.

My present day LIFESTYLES may slip…but I always step it up again to maintain my overall health. I get to take that to the HEALTH BANK. For me, I work at keeping my “game on”, as that in its-self is my defense attitude lifestyle that I have to have, in order to attack the hacks of Cyber Security of marketing against my HEALTH…Game On, I say!!!

Later… John
