Yes, I'm well aware of this, eat less, and eat healthier. But I'm not in the same shape that I was in 25 years ago. I'm still held to a height and weight standard by the Army. My days of running are done, I have 117 military jumps, my knees are destroyed, and I have a slight curvature in my spine. I have run 14 miles while wearing a load bearing vest, jungle boots and carrying a M16 w/ a M203. Most of this run was done on fire breaks, meaning that I was running in deep sand. I'm pretty sure that I've proven to myself that I might be just a little tuffer than the average person.
I don't mind walking or doing road marches, but my body has run it's last mile, years ago.

I get it. One of my buddies (10 years older than me) vet, shot knees, etc...

He rode bikes. Like all over the state. Some dudes swim. You do what you can with what you've got to work with. Just don't quit.

I heard this:

"when you hit thirty...."
"when you hit forty...."
"when you hit fifty...."

I called bs every time, saying my input simply had to match my output. It's math, plain and simple. If your metabolism slows, eat less. Want to eat more, get some exercise. I see guys my age that look like they're done. I see guys ten years older than me that still run marathons.

Like every other thing in life, it's part luck, and mostly work.

Don’t confuse us with facts.
Be nice

Yeah, getting old is a bummer. I look at a carb and gain weight.

The low carb thing (name a name, Adkins, keto, whatever) really works for me. But my wife has to be on board 'cause she's the one cooking. It was hard to do back when travelling a lot but not impossible. Problem is, one cheat meal and it sets me back for close to a week. I fell off the bandwagon last August. Gotta get back on.




Can someone tell this guy to stop bringing facts and logic into the equation so we can continue to wallow around in our self-pity???

I told him but good. ^^^

@KhyberPass @slapshut @Red Squirrel 556 @Miles @3clicks_Off thanks for the info. No, not a trick question. It didn't even occur to me they might be different calipers since I ordered both in 7.62x39 (I double checked my receipts) and one company just happened to stick the wrong one in the box.
