Happy Holidays & Weight Loss

My Florida friend Larry sent this to me, and if you haven’t yet seen it, see it now. It’s delightful. Well, even if you've seen it elsewhere, see it again. Thanks, Larry.

And here’s an exercise for you to try if you put on a few extra pounds over the holidays. It seems to work, at least it did for me.

EXERCISE FOR PEOPLE OVER 50
Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where you have plenty of room at each side.
With a 5-lb potato bag in each hand, extend your arms straight out from your sides and hold them there as long as you can. Try to reach a full minute, and then relax.
Each day you'll find that you can hold this position for just a bit longer.
After a couple of weeks, move up to 10-lb potato bags.
Then try 50-lb potato bags and then eventually try to get to where you can lift a 100-lb potato bag in each hand and hold your arms straight for more than a full minute.
After you feel confident at that level, put a potato in each bag.
