Senior Weight Loss QuestionQ. This senior citizen thoroughly enjoys reading Diet Bites. At 73, I find that I am at the very top of what I should weigh, according to your weight charts. I lead a fairly active life, have no health concerns, and try to eat healthy. Also, I feel great! I am not as active as I was in my youth, of course. Is there something more that you could suggest to help me get to the low end of my desirable weight? ~ Milly, Austin, TX
A. Milly, even though you are at your highest 'suggested' weight, you are doing great! Here's why. a) Age plays a big factor in what an individual weighs. b) More and more doctors are recommending that seniors do well with a little additional weight on their bones. c) You appear to be doing all of the 'right' things - the activity, healthy food choices, and you are healthy. d) A person's weight is dependent on several factors - such as how one feels at a certain weight - and you feel great! You touched on a very important point, that being 'activity and youth'. As we grow older, we do tend to slow down and of course, a decrease in activity without a decrease in food intake, may make an individual put on a few pounds. But Milly, just keep on doing what you're doing now, because when you've got a good thing going - don't rock the boat! If you are still concerned about your weight (and again, I think you're just fine) then I'd ask my physican for a professional opinion. Take care, Milly! ~ Sky at Diet Bites
