Darkness Ascends in Magic City

by TR Cameron

  As a tween I even tried those candies, AIDS that were supposed to suppress your appetite if you drank them with warm water. Glug. I ate four or five at a time and when they became associated with the name of an epidemic of the 1980’s – they withered away. All for the best.

  This time is different. I’ve stopped chasing a perfect weight that I came up with in my head based on nothing. A diet that would help me get there and then I could discard just as fast and go back to ‘normal’ eating. That’s really been my desire all along. To look good and eat like everyone else.

  That has never been my story and it only took till now for me to get it.

  However, even at my age I can learn and while ‘normal’ is out of range, healthy is still very doable. I’ve cut out sugar and processed anything, baked stuff too. And I’ve taken up yoga and swimming again. Two forms of exercise I actually look forward to and will keep doing for longer than a year. Neither one really feels like exercise. Key for me.

  And I get meditation thrown in as a bonus.

  When a body gets to be 61, my current age, it was thought that the best that can be hoped for is to maintain some agility, stay in your own house and be flexible-ish. New studies, though are showing so much more is possible and quality of life can be amazing – if we can just get off the merry go round of quick fixes (which belong to the young) and focus on the bigger prize. A lifestyle that we like, can live with, and rewards us with a body that can still do just about everything. I’ll let you know. I’m gonna be on this path for a while. More adventures to follow.
