Re: My will is weak.

Ciggies are my downfall. At least I've cut right down to just 2/day and vape the rest of the time.

Hmmm, doubt it really....you could switch to a healthier food intake. For example, eating a bunch of grapes is better than a bag of chocolates? Or portion size...you could half it, if you eating a meal. Is this what you mean?

Re: My will is weak.

After a certain age I believe you are more prone to put on weight..not sure though.

I have to work out a lot harder in my 60s to keep toned and weight off, than I did when in my 40s...50s

That might well be due to our metabolic rate slowing down as we become older, so it's reckoned. Also it is said that we don't move quite as quickly as the years go by.

Personally these days I have what my mother always used to call two speeds, slow and stop.
I blame her and my father for this, it must be in the genes!

Yes you have, I remember it well.

I bought some Almond ice creams at Lidl Mags, that are equally as nice..I can’t hear them in the freezer..there “ frozen”..
