Can you imagine yourself at the age of 90 and beyond with weight problem?

you would be surprised I will be 90 Nov 15 and a lot of my friends are in their nineties and we are not all senile either we love life and live it.

If by God's grace I am still alive by that time, I wish I still have this 28 inch waist or even smaller.

@epiffanie That photo of your comfort food looks so beautiful and inviting.Plain strawberries would have been better.

There are too much fat in your food, my friend, and it is bad for your health.

I can't imagine being around at 90 although my mother lived till 104 and everyone says I'll do the same. I don't even want to live that long. :)

Right now I am too young to think of my nineties. But you should take care to stay fit and to live a beautiful life.

Not to mention metabolism slows even more as you age. When arthritis and osteoporosis sets in, mobility even becomes harder. Yes you may have lost some teeth, but doesn't mean you lose the extra pounds easy. Aw joys of old age. :D I would love to reach 90. My bf's grandma is 90 and while she is slightly overweight, she is still pretty up and about. Still cleans, cooks, gardens, and plays Pokies/ Slot Machines. Still attends senior get togethers and stuff. More than reaching old age, I'd also love to reach old age HEALTHY and still strong. If I become too much of a burden to my future children, I'm pretty open minded about getting into a facility.

TO be honest with you, I don't like reaching that age. I've always thought of dying while doing something right rather than to live longer and get aged and becomes slowly degrading in a physical level. teh food that you have, that's a lot of cream. maybe you need a doctor or dietician to help you out.

LOL you sound like you have the most positive thoughts today..

I can imagine myself at 90 and I hope I live that long. The bad thing is I probably won't be able to care for myself by then and will be in either a nursing home or living with my son.

I wish I can reach that age and still have a sharp mind/memory; never mind the weight; but I think it is easier to lose weight at that age because I would be very careful about my diet.

You are overthinking now Bess. Don´t forget to live now and eat what you like. We would never know when our time will come but I would like to reach 90 with still a clear mind and good health.

I don't need to wait till 90 ,I am already overweight.

Well I'm not thinking about it. I'm just living my life now and how can I make it better.

To be healthy at any age is a blessing and to be healthy beyond seventy years one has to be mightily blessed! I live in moderation especially in terms of food intake with the occasional indulgence. I rather would leave than just count my years but then it is not in my hands! siva
