[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All this talk of exercise... the problem with being fifty is that you need to exercise like crazy to look like a fit old woman. You are, however, still an old woman. And while the exercise does ameliorate my degenerative disk disease, it doesn't get rid of it. That showed up at 51. Before that, life was peachy. Now I exercise like I never had to in my entire life just so that I can bear life, forget enjoy it. And all that exercise takes time. I've had to give up many things I actually enjoy doing to fit in the exercise so I won't have pain.[/quote] I'm sorry to hear this. I am 51 and workout 5 times a week. I work full time and am still raising two teenagers. I think's your disease, not your age, that's the problem. On a good day, I look 45 but never any younger, but that doesn't make me an "old woman."[/quote]
