health maintenance
As we're all old farts here, do any of you diligently watch (or have started to watch) for things like calorie intake, cholesterol or pre-diabetes signs or any of that stuff? Do you take any special medication and/or vitamins?

Multivitamins daily, drink more water than anything else, barely any fast food and no frozen junk, just the basics

High cholesterol and diabetes here.
I have lost weight though, but made little to no difference.

Re: health maintenance
after getting absolutely trashed in April / May for a variety of reasons I have decided to take a break from drinking and also trying to hit the gym up more often. I got kind of lax on working out and felt my energy levels severely drop so need to get back into the routine.

Re: health maintenance
i don't stress about calorie intake so much currently, i restricted heavily last year while i was getting in shape/losing weight etc, but my metabolism is juiced enough now that i don't have to really watch what i eat as long as i maintain my usual activity levels (which i do). same as these dudes, very little in the way of processed foods etc, i make everything i can from scratch and generally don't do takeout more than once a week.
i have been drinking a bit more the last couple months than i did most of the last year but still a fraction compared to what i used to. had high blood pressure, had to take medication for a couple years, but that's well under control now. i will find out about cholesterol and all that jazz in a monthish. but no problems historically

Re: health maintenance
My chief struggle is with back pain. Weight wise, I'm where I should be, maybe a little on the thinner side.

Re: health maintenance
If you want to get your drinking under control, one thing you could do that worked for me is, set a day in the week that you'll drink, and then abstain the rest of the week. Say, Friday or Saturday, and allow yourself 3 beers. Put yourself in that habit and routine to begin the process of weaning yourself away from it.

Re: health maintenance
been having some problems with the lower extremities which has kept my daily mileage lower than i'd like. accordingly i have gained about 2.5 pounds back and i am starting to panic about getting fat again. but my glucose and lipid panels all came back in normal healthy ranges so that's nice
