Knees Bend Arms Stretch
Why are all goaded into being Slim. Trim, and Fit, every day in the media?Is it really nesseccary or important in maturity to be as slim as one was at twenty one?
Especially aimed at women is… Exercises and Diets galore and we are urged to buy machines that shake us like a jelly, or D V D’s were 21 year olds kick their legs in the air and gyrate for 30 minutes to keep fit!
How is it that 50% of the population are pleasantly plump and still happily married ,or with partners who like them as they are.
Some men already slim go for 5 mile runs daily, and some never come back. They die in the process.
If you are active round the house and go up and down stairs that uses plenty of calories.
In any case, as one matures the body thickens as well.
Surely you don’t stop loving your Spouse /Partner if he is now sans teeth, and hair, and a disappearing waist line…Poor Thing!!
It is much worse in U S A, as if you don’t look young forever, even with Plastic surgery, you get put on the Scrap Heap as most men there favour younger women.!
..if you're comfortable as you are that's fine.

Re: Knees Bend Arms Stretch
One person's 'pleasantly plump' is another person's 'lardy ass'!I used to be very fit and played a lot of sport. I'm still fairly active, but the old knees have gone a bit! My wardrobe contains clothes bought WAY over 25 years ago in some cases and I can still get into them! My weight/waist has not changed in (no idea!) over 30 years. In case you're thinking I'm a lettuce eating freak, I eat like a horse!
My point is, if you are overweight through choice, as you get older you are opening yourself up to a host of 'fat' related problems. Then there is the airline thing, why should I have to pay the same as someone twice my weight who then sits next to me and overflows into my seat?
So, no - you don't need to be as slim as you were at 21, but you should take care of yourself, then you won't become a burden to your family or the NHS!
