Excuse me, I was looking for the M&G thread, somehow made a wrong turn and ended up in the weight gain or loss thread.
Anyway, both dates are wide open, but I picked 9/14 for scant reason.
Also, 14 months ago I tore my rotator cuff and in going down the Youtube rotator cuff rehab world I got sucked into overall health and fitness. Went on a keto-ish diet and dropped 20 in about 5 weeks. Mind you I was 152 before I started this. I needed to drop the fat but when you lose weight that fast you lose muscle too, I looked like a scarecrow. I do have good reason to remain lean - BP, blood sugar, cholesterol, heart disease family history, etc. To make a long story short there is work to do but I have improved quality of diet a lot. I haven't quit alcohol but there isn't a lot left in the quiver at this point. I did join a gym (thanks Medicare gap plan!) 6 weeks ago and have been regaining strength rapidly. A lean 135 now (5'10"), or as they say in West Virginia, I'm "wiry", though they don't pronounce it quite like that.
