[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok. That was terrible way to phrase it…but when did you accept the weight gain, gray hairs, wrinkles and stopped the daily fight with age? At what age did you say, I cant fight anymore. Or are you still fighting it til the end…via surgery, supplements ect.[/quote]

It’s funny you asked this as I am newly 62 and it wasn’t deliberate. Weight is ok, but I tend to wear baggy clothes because I think I’m bigger than I actually am. A lot of it is depression over being forced to be the only adult regarding my parents and my siblings, but that seems to be resolving as I am flat out refusing to be in the dynamic. Today, after probably 8 months (!) I finally got my hair cut and colored and I feel so much better. I have a friend I adore who would alway say “Let’s meet for coffee and I want to see lip color on you when you get there”. I always did so and it did make a difference in my psyche. I put on makeup every day, but I forget to refresh little things. And my husband is all about him now and that doesn’t make it any easier. When my little dog passes (he’s old now but so sweet), I plan to be gone from this house at least 6 months/year[/quote]
