Not disease and such, but a healthy weight notwithstanding muscle which weighs more than fat.

The following articles, old as they are, make an interesting point:

I recently turned 25 and am more fit than I was when I was 19 ( I got fat after freshman year in college ).

I don't understand people in general, who settle in and throw their health to the wind. When I'm 65 I still intend to jog regularly and lift weights. Then again I am a huge Stallone fan ( no I don't support the steroid use ).

It's important that we both care about our health.

What happens is that when we get older the metabolism decreases and our life is busier so its harder to be active and look fitter...

I gained weight myself and feel better now in my late 20's than early 20's but I notice that my friends that are in steady relationships just don't care as much, they have that well he is fat too attitude...
