I found the things we fear the most are sometimes what we also need the most. Resistance to change can be persistent, but taking one day at a time slowly incorporating those new challenging habits will be worth it in the end. I have been dealing with a herniated disc in my lumbar region for years that causes sciatica so take your time and focus on proper form. I have learned the hard way. Thank you, Nan for bringing us these great reminders. I always seek these inspirations to keep me on my path.
Nan, thanks for sharing Jane’s journey with us. I am going to be 74 in December. I have always been a 3plus mile walker and a weights class a couple times a week . I will amp it up for sure. About your diet Nan , do you want to stay on your hyper nourishment program? Or a mix of your book? That’s what I would like to hear next. Thank you again
Hi Kathy! I see a place for hyper nourishment with the smoothie on a daily basis ongoing. As she says why not nourish ourselves deliciously with those perfect foods. Since I finished the six weeks on the good life Lupus protocol I have been on step down from high raw, which means I’ve added cooked foods. The way that looks for me so far is a smoothie. I drink often on all day until before dinner, for lunch, a salad of more greens and cruciferous and fruits and veggies (It’s about 18 ounces), and then for dinner it’s cooked and raw WFPB. I hope that helps.
Thank you for this wonderful interview. I find individual’s own experiences to be the most inspirational and relatable examples that hopefully we can all bring into our lives. For the last four years, I have tried to incorporate resistance training with progressive overload since my diagnosis of osteopenia borderline osteoporosis of the lumbar region. Nan and Jane, your experiences are greatly appreciated and extremely inspirational. Thank you.❤
Thank you, Deborah. I’m finding myself repeating a number of things that Jane said, including focusing on a thing with curiosity, rather than apprehension, intensity, or fear. I love that! 🌻🥰🌻
Hi Nan!🌻 Really enjoyed this interview! Thanks to Jane for sharing her health journey. Great to see she's into weight training. I started when l was 18 years old and it's still part of my daily routine. A couple of other women who include weight training in their lifestyle is Earnestine Shepherd who is 88 years old and looks amazing. Also vegan Chef Babette who is 73 years old trains regularly. She looks extremely fit. As Jane mentioned there's lots of health benefits that come when training with weights. Have a wonderful day!
Hi Louis! Thanks for jumping in on this subject, and for sharing some additional information with me. Yes, Ernestine Shepherd is a marvel, and very inspiring. I’ve been following Chef Bette, even dined at her restaurant this year, And continue to be lead in this direction. As it relates to weight training, what is your daily routine. Do you go to a gym or do you have your own? My interest and intent is peaked on the subject.🌻🥰🌻
@@NanSimonsenHi Nan🌻 My current workout routine is a 5 days a week. Each workout session 45 minutes long, plus 10 minutes of warm-up and cool-down stretching. I do a full body workout in each session. The "best gym" is the one you are going to use consistently. That could be a home gym or one you go too. I use both. At times l may not have enough time to drive to a gym so l will workout at home. For a beginner l always recommend having a trainer at the start. Once you have a good program then you can go about it alone. Some people prefer a trainer all the time because they can also act as a motivator. The most important thing l will stress here is that you want to avoid injuries. They can set you back for some time or permanently. That's how l train now. I don't try these crazy attempts to use super heavy weights. I focus on form when lifting. Good form prevents injuries. I listen to my body. If the weight doesn't cause any kind of resistance, then l will increase it by a bit. I do higher repetitions, until failure. The good thing about a gym is that they have machines which are a bit less prone to cause major injuries compared to free weights. Just as important is nutrition when you start a weight training program. I have had to increase my protein a bit. I eat at least 1 to 1.6 grams of protein pet kg of weight. It's more so about amino acids, so a good rounded diet will include all the amino acids needed for muscle recovery. At 63, l have no joint pain, or other issues regarding loss of bone or muscle loss. People who l know who are my age have already had knee, hip, replacements. Hopefully this helps! You already have a fit looking physique so weight training will firm up all those muscles and prevent bone and muscle loss down the road. Have a wonderful day!
Bravo Louise for having created, integrated, and followed such an effective and reliable regime. You gave me exactly what I was looking for. What a beautiful outline of your plan; thank you for taking the time to write it out. I appreciate it and feel that I have a good direction to follow. I appreciate you🌻🥰🌻!!!
Hi Terri, watching, and for your kind comment. I too will be taking advantage of her Hasfit recommendation. Please keep watching and stay in touch. 🌻🥰🌻
Hi Janet, so you know where she is! I heard Dr. Goldner mention Plantpoweredpeddler twice during her wellness Wednesday podcast. It sounds like you’ve got her on for sure. I’m so excited for you. Well done!🌻🥰🌻
@@NanSimonsen I'm waiting to hear back from her. I asked for a Monday with Thomas too! Great inspiration to start the New Year if they can talk with us.
THANK YOU! Following is what AI Chat GPT says about Oreos. Strictly speaking they are, but there’s enough there that will keep me from using that example again. I appreciate your sharing…. Oreos are generally considered vegan-friendly, as they do not contain animal-derived ingredients such as milk, eggs, or lard. However, there are a few considerations to keep in mind: 1. Cross-Contamination: Oreos are produced in facilities that also handle dairy products, leading to potential cross-contact with milk. This means trace amounts of dairy might be present, which is particularly important for those with severe allergies or strict dietary restrictions.  2. Sugar Processing: The sugar used in Oreos may be processed using bone char, a filtration method involving animal bones. While the final product doesn’t contain bone char, the use of this process is a concern for some vegans.  3. Palm Oil: Oreos contain palm oil, an ingredient associated with environmental and ethical issues, including deforestation and habitat destruction. Some vegans choose to avoid products with palm oil due to these concerns.
@@NanSimonsen ...thx for the added info...I found my info from a direct interview from a reporter to one of the higher-ups at Oreo mfg where the Oreo rep assured that bone char is definitely used... God Bless... 🙂

great, we need lots more like us, so people understand that life can be different.
. . . enjoyed your interview with all the new helpful tips...btw, just loving fyi, Oreos are NOT VEGAN.... 😊
