What are Can Do Couples? Who are Can Do People?
Today’s ” Can Do Couples : Living Active Lives Together” discussion is brought to you Ensure. Have fun discovering how you can be a “Can Do” person as well.
Living the “Can Do Couples Life”, Walt and Shelley in a 1997 Plymouth Prowler
Ever wonder how some couples (or people) as they age maintain that “Can Do” attitude? How they just keep going and experiencing and loving life? Here are a few characteristics that I feel help “Can Do” couples experience and enjoy life:
- They keep a positive attitude even in the face of adversity
- They encourage each other and those around them
- When they have a set back, they try to get back up
- They keep up on the latest trends
- They surround themselves with friends and family
- They plan things to look forward to
- They find reasons to smile and laugh
- They maintain a healthy lifestyle by focusing on great nutrition
An example of Walt and I as a “Can Do” couple: We keep up on the latest trends by regularly Snapchatting family and friends and using the latest filters!
Check out this video of another “Can Do” couple, Byron and Helen, who are motorcycle riding grandparents.
Did you notice how Byron and Helen embody many of the characteristics that I outlined above of “Can Do” couples? They laugh and smile often, have things scheduled to look forward to, they stay current, and remember to focus on great nutrition.
Byron and Helen have been together for 58 years. Their love of classic cars and motorcycles has always kept them active but it almost sidelined them when they had an accident. With the help of Ensure, they got back on their bike and back to doing what they love! I find their story inspirational and motivational for Walt and I.
Walt’s choice of a healthy breakfast includes seeded toast, spaghetti squash casserole, and Ensure High Protein Nutrition Shake.
Walt recently had a health set back which I will detail in an upcoming blog post, discussing how his Can Do attitude helped him to recover quicker. As I said, Can Do People, are those who understand the role nutrition plays in turning “I can’t” into “I can,” or “I used to” into “I am back to.” That’s why they drink Ensure. It helps give us the strength and energy to do the things we love.
Why Ensure is the drink for Can Do People

Ensure nutrition drinks are scientifically-formulated with nutrients, essential vitamins and minerals to fill any nutrition gaps, giving adults the strength and energy needed. Walt tried the Ensure High Protein Nutrition Shake. He was impressed that it had:
16 grams of protein to support muscles
23 essential vitamins and minerals
160 nutritious calories
4 grams of sugar and 2 grams of fat

What a cute post! I love the photos. And my dad used Ensure when he was sick and not able to eat much, he never said anything bad about it, and he was very picky!

I try to register, but the page just refreshes. I try again with email and it asks me to register so it’s not taking…. Hummm.
Ellie Augustin says
How fun are you guys! I truly believe you having fun together and being silly keeps you as young as you feel Love it.
David Elliott says
Sounds like a great grand prize. Of course having an extra thousand a year would be awesome. There is so much that I could do with that, including putting some money aside for my daughter’s college education. It is so cool to see different couples who keep up with things and stay current on trends. All of them look so cute. Good to see people who still love one another like that as they age.
Sarah says
I’ve never tasted Ensure but sounds like a great idea for keeping your nutrition good! Sometimes, I’m not able to get a good breakfast in.
Lena Burkut says
You Shelley so right- the nutrition is so mus more important as we get older. I am the point where I have to always monitor what my husband is eating. I will seriously consider the ensure – looks like a great solution
kathleen says
awe.. you two look adorable. I keep seeing Ensure in the store but have yet to try it. I think I’ll try it out next week.
Michelle Cantu says
Goals!!! My husband and I need to start snapping our lives, we are so lame. You totally gave me a push to start acting with a can do attitude, we definitely need to get active together.
