Clinton Posted November 19, 2023 Report Share Posted November 19, 2023 (edited) Hey gents, I joined back in 2016 and kinda quit the forums back in May of 2022. At that time I went through a divorce - it left me devastated - I ended up scrapping the majority of my longevity regimen. I quit exercising, drank heavily for many months, lost my interest in eating much at all including healthy foods, had much difficulty sleeping and had lost interest in longevity 'research' and many other interests in my life. Over the past 4 months, I've met a new lady-friend and rekindled my interest in fitness, health and longevity - I remember and appreciate all of the usual suspects here and all of the well-researched and intelligent posts. I'm very grateful for all of the amazing information and people here that have helped me understand what I consider to be a healthy approach to healthspan and lifespan and I hope to soon begin contributing again to the forums, Sincerely, Clinton Edited November 19, 2023 by Clinton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. I'm still fully employed (teaching 2 courses in the Fall, 2 in the Spring) at UR -- tenured Full Prof.; not interested in retiring (would be boring). But, I no longer swim -- I used to swim with my own invented stroke -- a lousy stroke; it ate up my rotator cuffs. I had a successful shoulder replacement of the right shoulder -- but no more swimming. So, for exercise, I do vigorous exercise on an elliptical cross trainer at a high resistance, 6 days a week. -- Saul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
