"I released 19lbs and 36.5cm and my husband released 21lbs and 45cm"

Hello Tribe, I love you all! You are the best buddies to have during this difficult time. Somebody shared an interview on BBC where a physician stated that people who are obese have a 10 times higher death rate from the Corona virus and I believe this. I am not sharing my pictures – too embarrassed. 

But I did good and so did my husband. I released 19lbs and 36.5cm and my husband released 21lbs and 45cm total. Most of his weight was in his belly and he used to snore a lot and had episodes of sleep apnea, which has now greatly reduced. I had serious hip pain for the last 9 months and was worried that I might need a hip replacement. I just realized the other day that most of my pain is gone!!! This program could have not been at a better time for us. I think I would have gained 15lbs, drinking wine and eating pies and ice-cream. I had no big problems following the guidelines and did not miss anything very much, maybe a good old german bread once in a while?

I still have another 25 lbs to go, but I think I can do it!! I just signed up for Ben Greenfields Mindvalley exercise program (The Longevity Blueprint). Hope this will help me to get rid of these extra pounds. We will be first time grandparents in July and my wish is that I will be able to play soccer with her and tumble on the ground with her without injuries. Oh did I mention, I will be 67 this summer and my husband is 77 years old. 

Thank you so much Eric, and Ariel, Lisa, Amanda, Aashwini. Love you!!
