The only good thing about getting old is that you can piss off the young

Healthy and conscious diet - don’t deprive but don’t be stupid.
Regular exercise with both thoughtful cardio and weights - no strain on joints and reasonable weight.

Yep. Also a fan. Just over 12 months in.

Hugely helpful.

And of all the people I know on it, I know of none that are not happy with the results.

I thought turning 40 would be a big deal, it was not. 50 kind of surprised me, that's when I started having all of those mysterious pains, the hair started turning grey and the doctor added more pills to my regime.

It's the 60s that are starting to get to me. Just in the past year I've experienced things I've never had before, pinched nerve, muscle spasms, a lot of trouble sleeping (always been an issue, just much worse) and apparently I'm losing muscle tone and strength, even though my exercise/workout routine is unchanged.

As an attempt to make myself feel better (we all go through this) and perhaps help others who are also experiencing the effects of senioritis, anyone else care to share what we can all look forward to?
Im 42 but i think at this age it is retirement and enjoying life. That is what you should do.

My wife and. I retired at 60, later moved to an over 55 adult community in Florida. No one in our families ever did this. It was a good move.

I know I'm pretty young here but I just turned 20 and I still can't wrap my head around that i'm not getting any younger lol. I really seen a lot during those 20 years. I still feel like I'm a teenager if I'm being honest. I feel 20 years is still a long time.

Makes me wonder what I'll be like at 50-60. Hopefully I'll still driving a speedboat in Alaska by that time.

So I’m 53, act like I’m 23, move like I’m 73, moan like I’m 93, and wish I was young again …
Life is a wonderful thing, when you let everything come to you instead of continually looking for it …

I've never had a problem with aging. Things change over time due to the natural aging process and the cumulative effects of injuries. I just take it as it comes. I've been more sedentary over the last year than I have in my life, but that's because I'm in a social activity transition and I think my body has needed to recover from overdoing things for quite a while and feeling those effect. I'm slowly making efforts to engage in activities that take a little less toll on the joints and such. Really, I'm just happy to be alive and ambulatory.
