What happens when you get old

I'm trying to counteract the impact of getting old. I did a post about my new home gym (on its way soon), and that physical activity will do me the world of good. I've also got to reduce the size of my belly. 

A generous shape that is more often than not labelled as a beer belly. Not in my case though. Over the years I've tried everything, in moderation: no carbohydrates, meal replacement shakes, no sweets, etc. All to no avail. 

I walk one of our puppies 3.5 kms every morning and about 2 km in the afternoon. Managing over 10K steps each day. I try to eat smaller portions and, despite a relapse into eating some chocolate, next to no crap.

So, combined with the routine male ageing symptoms, I'm trying my best while taking far too many tablets.

I'm looking to hang in as long as I can. :)

Here's a video providing some context.
