We have all been told over and over that obesity is a contributing factor to diabetes, heart disease and various cancer. I was shocked to read today it is being associated with the loss of sight as well. This is just another incentive to stay on track and keep losing weight.

I’ve been wearing reading glasses the last 4 years. (when I hit 50) A few months ago, I had to increase the strength. I’m at a 1.50, but after reading this article…I wonder how long before that will change.

I haven’t been to the gym since my mom was in the hospital. I plan on starting back the first of the year. I turn the big 55 on the 9th of January. I’m already searching out senior discounts. There has to be some advantage to hitting this age.

Mom just got up……..so I’m off to fix her some breakfast.
