Is something Ive been thinking about as later this year I have a big birthday, which unfortunately or perhaps fortunately isn't my 21st 
So the programme I was watching on to the other night about getting older seemed apt. I say getting older, staying young would be more accurate.
The secret is pretty much what I already knew, avoiding stress, getting light exercise (a test of which is being able to get up and down with your legs crossed) and apparently eating a vegan diet.
Hmm I might try some yoga, but I'm not giving up bacon

I am afraid all the veggies in the world can't change what you see in the mirror.

Yoga is great. I wouldn't give up my bacon either.

@Dragonairy1 ....Only go through this life once. I think we have a right to do what we enjoy.

You not being able to eat bacon seems so sad, even though you clearly face far worse things. Big hugs

That's true, there's always something else to make you ill.

so sacrificing virgins to Satan is not an option for longevity any more? I might as well stop it then

You can still try, but I'm surprised you're finding virgins to sacrifice

I don't blame you, life without bacon isn't worth living!! Bacon makes everything better.

There is no happiness without Bacon. Unfortunately I have aged past the ability of yoga because my wrists won't hold my body...If i could get new wrists I would be doing yoga...

That's a shame, until I recently started I hadn't realised how important they are.
