After 12 months on a low-carb, high-protein keto lifestyle, I noticed that some old habits were starting to creep back in. Since I didn’t begin this journey for weight loss—but for a medical reason—I wanted to stay focused on why I started.
At 69, my personal goal isn’t just to maintain muscle—it’s to build it. Resistance training is a core part of my routine, along with walking and elliptical work, but training alone isn’t enough. Protein intake matters.
Rather than assume I was eating enough protein, I decided to verify it. I re-tracked everything I ate for four days using Cronometer—no changes, no “perfect keto” days, just normal, real-life eating.
In this video, I share what the data showed, how close I came to my minimum protein threshold, and the general types of foods I rely on—protein anchors, supporting fats, and simple repeat meals. I also touch on creatine use and hydration, which are part of my overall approach.
Just like I once invested in my 401k, I now invest time and energy into my total health—strength, cardio, and proper fuel—to stay strong and independent in retirement.
