Slowing down/aging

20 years ago I fell asleep driving on the motorway, I got it checked out and I was anaemic , a course of Iron sorted it anyway

Falling asleep like that for years. Youtube videos or computer screens or reading are the worst. I do an average of 25k steps a day and under 7 hours sleep. When the cows are dried off and the step count halves the problem goes away.

This was me too. It was so bad I could nod off in mid conversation. Got diagnosed with sleep apnea and got chap machine. Never looked back.
i find intermittent fasting great for keeping the weight off. 52 years old 6 ft1 and a tight fifteen stone. All down to not eating till afternoon noon and not after 6.30pm. Also eat more protein than carbs and no bread

a question for all of ye talking about intermittent fasting, is it basically skipping breakfast and just eating around 1 and again around 5 / 6 and leaving it at that. I probably have 2 stone to loose, sounds like this could be a good job.

If any of ye are into podcasts. I'm currently listening to this one. There's a few good tips and tricks from half way through to the end.

it’s something like that but you can tune it to suit yerself. Some people get in down to one meal a day. But again it’s whatever you’re able for yerself. I find coffee during the morning great for keeping hunger off. Adult generally don’t need all the food we eat. Our bodies finished growing years ago

Genetics has more to do with ageing and slowing down I imagine, than amount of meals and whatever else.

altogether?🤪

Outlook and perspective

Ah now, surely an app isnt needed to tell the difference between shite and good food. If something doesn't look like it grew or lived and your mother didn't bake it, don't put it the basket. Most supermarkets are full to the brim with unhealthy food.

On the physical side, I'd say a lot are confusing ageing with unfitness. While ageing counts for a little, one is going to be a lot more debilitated from lack of muscle tone and flexibility.

That is of course aside of any underlying medical conditions.

The old saying to breakfast like a King, lunch like a Prince, and sup like a pauper was quoted here recently and is a good a good as any.
