Personally, I don't think life is good enough to be worth wasting your time trying to stay in shape, and not eat stuff that you like.
I'd rather live a short life and relax, eat what I want...then die of a heart attack at 50. (that's just me though)
I'm 52 and a far cry from having my life be over. I'm not afraid of dying I've already faced it more times than most. I live my life like I always have. I am a ticking timebomb right now, having contracted Hepatitus C about 30 years ago. About a year ago I threw up 3 liters of Blood, I had been taken to the ER and when they were trying to insert a nasal tube that was when I threw up the blood, into a pan, that's how we know how much there was. They expected me at the very least to pass out but I fought on and didn't, not so much for me, but for my wife and son.

To hear people say that life is over at a certain age is BS. I think that thinking like that makes one a loser.

I've been shot at, been on a boat that almost sank about a 100 miles offshore, been in a couple of car accidents. When I was 7 a medic got a commendation for saving my life after I had been stung by several rather angry hornets. Don't throw rocks at a hole in the ground that they are coming out off, it tends to piss them off.
