I'm finally starting to see more signs of aging - like forreal forreal. In my late twenties, I had gray strands here and there, a little bit of crinkles near the eyes. But now, when I see myself in the mirror, I see an aging woman. The grays are multiplying. My eyes look tired. The lines on my forehead are more pronounced. I may or may not be losing more hair. I'm really getting old...
On the upside, I don't feel that creaky and achy. I'm pretty sure all my walking and workouts that I began last summer really helped with my stamina. My body has changed, like my legs becoming more muscular, and fixing my gut also helped. For so long, I thought I just had a fat belly. Turns out it was bloat all along! Taking prebiotics and now Metamucil has helped maintain my gut health and keeping the bloated belly down.
Health has definitely been the concern for my siblings and I going into this year. From broken bones, to strokes, to diabetes, high cholesterol and liver issues. It's been one thing after another with us. It truly put my own health into perspective and that I need to continue prioritizing my health!
