So I am reading “Younger Next Year: Live Strong, Fit, and Sexy Until You’re 80 and Beyond” by Chris Crowley and Henry Lodge, MD. Problem is, I need it to work tomorrow, if not sooner. How come I was the only one who received this as a Christmas gift from a family member? So apparently I have to learn to be a bit more selfish and put myself first when it comes to being healthy. I got the selfish and putting myself first part down pat. I thought that was what I was supposed to be trying to correct. So here goes, I guess. One of the points of the book was to jump into the process with much bluster and noise. I suppose to help make sure you don’t backslide. That’s all I need. This is about as much noise and bluster as I can muster for the time being. But the book also made a point of saying shut up, quit whining, be a man, and just do it. Nice… where’s the love here? So the book has about 50 pages of useful stuff (nothing you really didn’t already know – except for that work out hard six days a week for the rest of your life – yikes!), and another 100 pages of repeating the same thing over and over again. Of course, after reading the important 50 pages, I flipped through the book until I found the chapter on sex – or being sexy. Sad to say that the book only devoted a mere eight pages to the subject. What’s up with that? I gotta find another book…
