I don't feel old

Welcome and congratulations, you must be doing some things right and have better genetics.

I'm now 76 with only a bit of gray hair, always about BMI 22, still an elite skier, and summer backpacker with heavy loads. But definitely can feel my age at times and outwardly am noticing some tendency for skin wrinkling. Thanks to modern medical science mr dave is not yet dead due to genetic issues that are certain to increase in all of us as we of this medical age live beyond years of our ancestors they never had to worry about.
To continue so, be active both mentally and physically, wisely, carefully Use It or Lose It as our bodies don't recover like they did when young and degenerate irreversibly if not used. Otherwise in less than 50 years none of us will still be here, so make the most of your precious remaining time as best you can enjoying life because increasing deterioration and the end is certain for all.
 

No-one knew donkeys years ago that smoking was bad for you....
Well, the Surgeon General's Warnings have been on cigarette packs since I started smoking in 1966. They first appeared in July, 1965. But I ignored them. Or maybe since all I was interested in at the time was playing guitar, maybe I forgot that I knew how to read?
