Weight Management
Maintaining a proper weight is critical to healthy aging. Your organs and bones compromise from carrying around the additional stress of excess weight. Carry a 10# sack of potatoes with you for a day and you'll realize how much more difficult it makes maneuvering. Knee replacements are often the result of carrying excess weight. Check out some of the healthy meal options available on the internet if it's difficult to cook, otherwise begin a sensible program like Weight Watchers or TOPS. Begin a daily walking program to help burn the calories. Many of the area senior centers offer indoor walking.
