Isn't it nice to know that the rules are basically the same if you are 2 or 92 years old? My grandfather will be 93 this year, and he is a perfect example of the benefits of the Lean & Free principles. He had a massive heart attack thirty years ago and was not expected to live. Grandpa gradually began incorporating many of the common-sense, livable principles you are learning in this program. Today he still drives, plays pool twice a week, exercises six days a week for 20 to 30 minutes (including lying on the floor and touching his toes behind his head 20 times, and men's push-ups). He eats like a horse and yet says he would love to "gain" a little weight. Grandpa said to me the other day, "My only complaint is, I don't quite have the energy I did in my 80's." Grandpa was told two months ago by his doctor that he had the body of a 65-year-old man. (I might add that his mind is extremely alert, as well.) This is especially amazing, since one-third of his heart is non-functioning.
Grandma, at 89, also does very well. She is extremely active mentally, but arthritis is slowing her down physically. The only Lean & Free guidelines that she has not adhered to are regular exercise (she is a very hard worker, but work is not aerobic) and avoidance of soda pop. In her words, "I'd rather be dead than give up my cola!" Well, for 89, I would say she is doing pretty well.
Stay active, maintain a sense of purpose in life, lose yourself in service, and follow all of the Lean & Free eating, exercise, and positive- thinking guidelines. Here's to a happy, healthy life and glowing golden years! (Study Luann's, Gib's, Kyle's, Janet's, and Renee's success stories in your Lean & Free 2000 Plus book. These people are all 60 or over.)
