I’ve always heard that our bodies change as we get older. Our parents complained that their backs suddenly hurt; our grandparents couldn’t sleep anymore and all the jokes that went along with them.
Well, it’s no joke, things do change! I know this for real myself. After years of being able to eat nearly anything I am now officially “old” and have to limit what I eat like other old people. Maybe it’s not THAT bad, but it’s close. I’ve been eating pretty healthy these last three weeks, so the one day I choose to have pizza for dinner and eat more than I’m used to, I get the worst heartburn I’ve had since back when I drank alcohol! I don’t get heartburn, but it hit me hard.
It was a definite sign that I have to be more careful with not only what I eat but how much. This will get interesting as I start running…..
