That turning 30 means you lose all of your strengths and tolerances. Can't eat the same foods, can't consume alcohol, gain weight uncontrollably, need a half-bottle of aspirin just to move in the morning. You just can't do anything about it, your just fat, in pain, and tired all the time.

I feel this in my bones. I got grass pollen allergies and I can't eat as much bread and cheese as I used to be able to. Pulling all nighters is pretty rough now as well.

My dear friend, I know it is painful. Your body is not what you’ve known all your life.

No one can stop the decay that comes inevitably with time, but why do you think you can’t do anything about it ?

i hardly didn't even notice until i hit 40 that i was slowing down haha. then i ground to a halt at 45, because i got very sick. i'm coming out of it now, and experience substitutes a lot for strength. and you can still be flexible, that's something i find easier to keep than strength also, since it isn't so much bound to hormone levels.

I'm crawling toward 45.

Yes, you don’t look it !!

Feel it, tho. 😂

We’ll have to do something about that !!

Maybe some bone marrow will have you feeling 40 again 😂

I'm 47 and feel great, except I can't run marathons anymore and my knees get sore sometimes.

marathons are overrated. sore knees come from doing high impact exercise like running or skateboarding

but joint problems are a sign of autoimmune problems as well, though also from scarring. i have both, and i'm 49.

XD

Not at all. I totally thought she was in her 30's.

Alcohol is a known preservative.

i think it's other genetics in this case tho

except i have this in common and also only just started to look a bit old in the last 3 years

I’m glad you’re coming out of it. Growing old is the way life. And there’s a wisdom in it, but I deeply refuse that we just wither away when we grow old. If so, then we were never really alive !!

Yes we have less energy than before, we will not go gently into that good night !!

that's why old bastards are grumpy

If they make up for it by being wise, I’ll take it 😂

it's an essential part of survival. you use what you got.

This is the way.

I'm rebelling against this narrative. I don't feel this way :)

Ah wonderful !

You cannot imagine how happy I am to have misunderstood what you meant !!

No black pill around here! ... most of the time :)

Thank you for your compassion though, it's highly appreciated.

🫂🫂

Wait till you hit 50 lol

We never doom !!

this is only 9 months away for me

Best of luck.
