71 here, feel a lot younger. Combat wounds and injuries are slowing me down somewhat but just keep rolling. Now raising our year old grandson.

No smoking, alcohol or drugs have kept me and the missus in good health for the 49 years we have been married.

Going on 70. I feel much younger than I look.

So much so that every morning when I look in the mirror to shave I think, "Look what an old geezer I turned into."

Then I think, "quit ending your sentences with a preposition."

I'm middle aged and I feel middle aged.

At work, people from all over the world contact me for advice. That doesn't happen if you're a youngin'.

Physically, I have a few aches and pains from my football days. I've been working with a personal trainer since October and I've shed 20 lbs plus my strength has really picked up the last 3 weeks (both make me feel younger). I planted the garden yesterday so I'm experiencing the temporary soreness from a once a year activity.

It's a rough spot to be.


This is me ! The mind of a late-20s/early 30's in the body of a 65 year old. And neither one matches my true age of 53.

I'm 40, mentally 28, physically older due to my back, knees and joints always hurting.

I'm going back to school to get my degree. I recently went to the campus for a proctored test and that made me feel mentally old. LOL

I'm old, but my Wife says I'm immature.

Where does that put me? (Besides on the couch.)

I'm feeling older than my actual 54 years today.

Spent yesterday morning showing / teaching my 9-year old how to ski 'bumps'. Went great until feeling that twinge in the lower back...

Motrin helped. but moving carefully for a while.

Whatever "I'm thirty, but I feel sixty" translates to on your scale.

It's been a real bad few months.

I'm 50 and feel every day of it. Everything hurts, everything creaks or pops, and nothing is working like it used to.

I'm just beat down and ready for a break, but I'm afraid if I stop I'll never get going again.




Here's to the sunny slopes of long ago.

From what I've seen of 80, I hope I don't make it there, and the stats say I won't.



Arc; don't give up too soon.
I just turned 83 and I don't look a day over 78. Actually I don't feel any different than I did 20 years ago.
Obviously I am different, I cut down a couple of smallish trees, bucked them in to stove lengths, and started splitting them just before my birthday. I have not yet finished the job. I can gather up the energy for about a 6 hour spurt, and then it takes a month to gather another.

But I can still hold a pistol out at arms length and still see the target, so I'm good for a bit longer.

Soon to turn 60 and my body feels way older, replaced hips, bum knees and shoulders, and a God awful back some days. Yet, I keep on plugging along.
