I was 53 this year! I went through about 2 years of trying to mentally adjust to what I thought was life: part 2. When my personal analysis was over, my assessment was I felt better than I have in my life, I am happier (all those endorphins flying through me daily), and healthier than ever. I am greatful to be in this condition and hope I'm doing flying angels with Cathe when I'm 93 (modified of course - or maybe not). I'm in the process of creating a workout room of my own and I'm so excited I feel like a little kid.
I know it's easy to feel depressed because you are not 22 anymore...but at 22 I smoked, didn't workout, and although I weighed 97 pounds (4'11") I was not in shape at all. I think they call it "skinny-flabby".
I agree with Cathe...if your'e kicking younger butt in the weight department, you are awsome!
Have a great day...
