You get to eat as much tuna, sword fish, and other sources of dietary mercury because while something is going to kill you, it probably won't be that.

Ditto trans fats in baked goods or anything else. Gonna kill somebody 20 years younger, but that ship has already sailed in our case.

I wouldn't suggest taking up smoking again if you've managed to quit. That can still ruin the rest of your life as it finished the COPD job and you have to fight for every breath. Not fun.

You can ignore the guilt boice when you pass the gym. Walking is best for us, along with maintaining as much flexibility as we can.

And a lot of things will stop bothering you completely, things you might have obsessed on when you thought you'd be around for anothe 30 or 40 years but which don't seem worth the bother when you think you can probably start counting your life expectancy on your fingers without taking off your shoes.

Happy 3 score and 10 birthday.
