A discussion for people over 60: Let's focus on what we can do

I'm not certain exactly where to post this but I cannot stop watching this 70 year old man dance hip hop. Not only does he make it look like fun, albeit hardly easy, but great exercise and a powerful mood enhancer.

At 66 years old I find it very difficult to lose weight. I started on the traditional Keto diet which I did for two weeks. I lost 6lbs within the first 3 days. I haven’t lost 1 ounce since. I switched to the Healthy Keto Mayo diet 5 days ago and still not 1 ounce of weight loss. I walk for 1 hour everyday and drink plenty of water. I’m very frustrated!

Awesome video and yes, very addictive. He is someone who has been dancing all his life…so very fluid in his movements. My son in law’s dad danced all his life and could do those moves into his 80s. My granddaughter, who will be a musical theater graduate this May, taught me hip hop years ago….the real hip hop..omg. And we did Tina Turner routines….Proud Mary….I am 81 and still dance (by myself mostly lol) around the house. There is always music piped into their house across the breezeway and into the garage (my house is behind the garage):
We love jazz and big band.

Who cares what you look like..it’s so much fun and definitely a mood enhancer. Cut a rug everybody. I would love to get on the floor with him.
My grandkids (all young adults) will dance at the drop of a hat and we have often done this in public over the years. I’m still trying to perfect the move where you turn around on one foot….ain’t easy. Kudos to him.

After a second glass of vino my moves are flawless hahahaha.

Try it, you’ll enjoy it…Put some music on and start to feel your body move….can’t help it. Thanks so much for that link.

I am 72 and just had to put down our 13 year old lab mix. I would love to eventually get another dog but like you I think a smaller dog would be best. Lizzy got too heavy for me to lift when she developed arthritis. As much as I loved having a lab, I’ll have to get a small dog. Will adopt from a rescue.

How about over 90! Still sew teach Sunday school , read and do my house work. Yes I’ve had my share of health problems but I’m working with and through them. Still enjoy life!

I think it's all about the calories we take into our bodies. I've seen my husband just have the weight just melt away because he counted every calorie...good luck !
