I don't think your an old geezer Susan...

 

thanks... not yet anyway

 

Do people age from 49 to 60 overnight ???

Thankfully no. I don't want to speed up the process anymore than it seems to get as you age.

 

Nah,It's what you make of it.
I think I'm holding up pretty well, but then again I'm active.
I see people I know who are my age and they look like a train wreck.

 

I agree. Seen a few people I haven't seen in years and OMG. Seems like someone dropped the old man hammer on them. Very scary.

 

46 degrees on my bike ride today. had to break out the cold ride gear. Weather is changing fast. i figure 2 more weeks and all the leaves will be on the ground for clean up. Won't be long now........

 

My trees won't be finished dropping leaves until the trees bud in the spring...

 

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Real windy here too so that's helping get the job done faster

 

That helps, but a lot of the water oak leaves hang around till spring My maples and willow oak leaves fall when they should.

 

climb up and shake the you know what out of them heheh

 

Ummmm the trees are taller than my house.... I'd say 25' - 30' tall -- don't think I could shake that tall a tree

 

heheheheh

Later

 

I am over weight some, but other than that fairly good shape. You can never take your health for granted. Things can change over night.

 

This may sound funny, but I eat an apple every day, and try to drink a Kombucha/Synergy every day. Made me a new man.

 

Checkin in.......no trainwrecks, no sprained ankles from mt bikes, no strained anything xceptin the mod money fund & these damned whiskers that won't stay away for more than a coupla hrs, lol. Been doin the Advocare spark energy drink thing of late. Dropped all coffee, cokes & candy.......OK, pretty much all.

Good on ya!
Went for my yearly physical back in July.
Bloodwork was good except for Triglycerides. Number was up pretty good.
My Doc told me to lose a few #'s and cut out junk(excess sugars,starches and the like).
I'm not heavy to begin with, but I dropped 20 lbs. in 2 months by just cutting out junk and lots of walking. Supposed to get bloodwork in another month.Hopefully this wasn't done for nothing.

 

Quit smoking 13 months ago. I must be better for it but i did put on some lbs.

 

I quit smoking in 1991. I wore size 32's and in a month went up to 34's, in a few years up to 38's. My brother quit about the same age as I did he never gained a pound. I ate atomic fireballs like crazy for a year or so to help my cravings.

 

30 yr smoker here, quit in '07. Chantix did the job. Went up to 185 and stopped drinking, went down to 147 and started eating waffles at Waffle House, now leveled out at 160. No more vices except this damn Tacoma.
