A day in Seattle
Since the weather in Mt Rainier was rainy, we decided to leave Mt Rainier one day early to explore Seattle. We visited the Chihuly Garden and Glass Museum. I love glass art, and really appreciate all the exhibits. Afterward, we stopped by the Fish Markets at the Pike Place to have a quick seafood lunch before we hopped on the plane back home.
Lower Cholesterol by Dialing Down These Foods 減少食用以下食物可以降低膽固醇
Lowering cholesterol isn’t about giving up your favorite foods. It’s about being mindful of what shows up most often on your plate. Foods like fried dishes, processed meats, sugary treats, refined carbs, whole dairy products, and excess animal protein can raise LDL (“bad”) cholesterol and make it harder for your body to keep your heart in balance.
The good news? Small swaps can make a real difference. Try cooking with avocado oil instead of butter, adding whole grains such as oats or barley to breakfast, and choosing beans/lentils, tofu, fish, or seafood more often than red meat/animal protein. Consume plant-based or non-fat milk/yogurt. Fill your plate with fiber-rich vegetables and fresh fruit, and your heart and energy levels will thank you.

降低膽固醇並非代表放棄你最愛的美食, 而是要留意你餐盤裡最常出現的食物。油炸食品, 加工肉類, 含糖零食, 精製碳水, 全脂乳製品, 以及過量的動物蛋白都會升高低密度脂蛋白膽固醇（「壞」膽固醇), 使你的心臟更難保持平衡。
好消息是, 一些小小的改變就能帶來顯著的效果。嘗試用牛油果油代替奶油烹飪, 早餐添加燕麥或大麥等全穀物, 並多選擇豆類/扁豆, 豆腐, 魚類或海鮮, 而不是紅肉/動物蛋白。飲用植物奶或脫脂牛奶/優格。多吃富含纖維的蔬菜和新鮮水果, 你的心臟和精力都會感謝你。

What Most People Stop Doing After 60 That My Dad NEVER Did 大多數人在60歲以後不再做的事情 (但我爸爸從來沒停過）
Most people start to slow down after they turn sixty; they walk less, lift less, and live smaller. My dad was heading down that same path. Since everyone on my dad’s side of the family has diabetes, when I first became a Dietitian and tried to help him, he didn’t want to listen. He said, “You can do your own thing”. Then I told him that I am very grateful for him, paying for my education. If he doesn’t listen to the things I learn from school that he helped pay for, he is actually wasting his own money. Of course, wasting money is not acceptable; also he found out from his doctor that he is getting to the prediabetes stage, something finally clicked. He finally gave my plan a chance. Together, we adjusted his meals, built a simple fitness routine, and overall lifestyle. Now, at eighty-three, he walks 10,000 steps, swims, and strength trains daily. He also plays lawn bowling with friends three times a week. When we go on vacation, he joins us with the different excursions such as snorkeling, hiking, biking, and kayaking. He’s stronger, sharper, and more independent than ever.

大多數人過了六十歲之後就開始放慢腳步, 走路少了, 舉重也少了, 生活節奏也慢了下來。我父親也曾步入這樣的境地。我父親那邊的親戚都有糖尿病, 但當我剛成為營養師並試圖幫助他時, 他卻不聽。他說：「你自己做就好 」 於是我告訴他, 我很感激他資助我接受教育。 但是你如果沒有聽我在學校所學的營養知識, 那實際上是在浪費他自己的錢。當然, 浪費錢是不可接受的。而且, 他的醫生告訴他, 他已經開始出現糖尿病前期症狀了, 他終於醒悟。他最後決定嘗試我的方案, 我們一起調整了他的飲食, 制定了一套簡單的健身計劃, 並改善了他的整體生活方式。現在, 他已經八十三歲了, 每天步行一萬步, 游泳, 進行肌力訓練。他還每周和朋友一起打三次草地滾球。我們去度假時, 他會和我們一起參加各種各樣的活動, 例如浮潛, 健行, 騎自行車和劃船。他比以往任何時候都更強壯, 更機敏, 更獨立。
