Dawn Posted February 1, 2019 Report Share Posted February 1, 2019 Hi everyone, we moved ashore here 6 years ago when my husband got a job. Then the ship's cat died & I sank into a lengthy depression - I've always been active & a career woman & I REALLY HATE being a housewife. So now we've bought a farm on the coast & I'm having a mid-life change of career (at 62) to free-range chicken farmer. In the meantime my health has declined & I've become really unfit & I don't like it. I did have rheumatoid arthritis, but I switched to the paleo diet & have been symptom free ever since. Switching was easy for me, pain is a good motivator to stick to a diet. I'm now battling asthma & determined to conquer it - as you can see I don't like being sick & I will NOT become an ageing old fossil. My asthma gets worse the less I do, so I know working out is essential & I've finally found a system that keeps me motivated, mainly because I just can't resist a challenge. I've been with Nerd Fitness 3 weeks now & the asthma is improving. I suppose with my background I ought to be an adventurer, but most of those quests are in my past which seems like cheating somehow, so for now I'll stick as a rebel . 1 Quote Link to comment
