    Default My 50th Birthday

    Yesterday, I turned 50 and when I came home from the gym I wanted to mark the happy day. Not that I was 50 but that I feel so much better than I did in Key West when I was 45

    Happy Birthday Greg!
    It's amazing that we can feel better now that we are older but also much lighter. Sometimes I don't count in years any more but in kilos!
    When I turned 40 I was at my heaviest. Never again!

    Thanks, I am just amazed at the difference in how I feel and look. I knew I was not healthy and did not feel good but never figured out how badly until I lost the weight. My joints are recovering, my stamina is increasing and my overall attitude is just plain better. I also just figured I would always look like I was looking when I was heavier.

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY! 50 is a big one and only comes but once in a lifetime (except for those of us that choose to celebrate numerous times afterwards... my oldest sister is now younger than me). You look fantastic. You should be proud of your accomplishments, you've done so much work. I sincerely mean it when I say thanks for being so supportive and kind to me and others. You are definitely a bright light on this forum.

    May you have another 50 years, full of joy, good health, and laughter!
