What % do you think obesity contributes to the health problems in our country? (ETA - and why is rucking the best answer? :) ) Part II

I just drink water - the need for electrolytes is largely overblown for a vast majority of people. If you're sweating all day long, sure, but for the typical 30-60 minute workout there's no need if you eat a decent diet.

I tend to sweat a lot. I have done only water at least once a week. Usually depends on the day. Yesterday was water, today is gatorade/water combo.

I am down 8lbs. I honestly didn't think I had lost any weight at all, but my coworker mentioned that I looked like I had lost a significant amount. She was looking thru old photos of us hiking and noticed I had lost some weight since the photo was taken.

Today marks the seven-year anniversary of my first ruck - little did I know at that time what I was starting / getting into. Over these seven years, I’ve worn out an ‘indestructible’ ruck and 26 pairs of ruck shoes, while burning through 14,672 miles and 293,791 feet of elevation gain.

Find your exercise, do the work. Listen to your body but don’t make excuses. Figure out what foods help you to be your best and avoid the garbage pumped into highly processed foods.

It’s soooo worth it. Trust me.

New DL arrived today. A bit different than the 'fluffy' version from eight years ago...
