Let's Talk Aging Gracefully with Norah

Apart from having Rheumatoid arthritis, I have a condition called
ocular myokymia gravis which causes my eyelid to droop. All these are autoimmune conditions.

There is no cure but Doctors manage it by prescribing meds that will reduce inflammation and pain.

These drugs work by suppressing the immune system and minimizing the damage that it does to joint tissue.

However, they have side-effects such as;

👉🏾 Skin lightening
👉🏾 induced diabetes
👉🏾 Weight gain
👉🏾 Fatique
👉🏾 breathing problems
👉🏾 heart burn

Remedy

👉🏾 Reduce on fat, protein and carbs

👉🏾 Increase exercise to 5 days a week 30 min cycling 🚲 or walking and add on cardio to strengthen heart.

👉🏾 Take meds

I gained 6kg in 2 weeks.

I am on day 3 a nutritional detox program called C9.

I was weighing 80kg when I started and in just 3days am down to 77kg can't wait to check my results on day 9 and also to get a jump start to healthy eating...

Going on to 50 in the next 3 years 😘💃 God willing.

I realize am not as active because of my failing knees. However, am pushing myself to remain fit by smiling alot and doing cardio exercises 3 days a week.

How are you keeping fit?

It's a conscious decision that has to be made..The main question is WHY?
once you find out why you want to lose weight and why it has to be done sooner than later..You will need to get a accountability partner and am glad to help you get your desired results.
