Ever have a friend who asks you for your advice?

I mean, over and over again?  Gets old doesn’t it?

What they should do, health-wise, is so painfully obvious.

They know it. You know it. Even a young child knows it.

To know is to do. To know and not do, is to not yet know.  To my friend from yesterday, who’ll probably never read this, and to anyone else in denial – figure it out.

What’s Your Pathetic Excuse?

You should know, in case you don’t, I respond to every single comment and email you send. Yesterday’s Lane 8 post had a comment from occasional Guest Blogger, Skip.

Here’s the reply I just wrote, it feels post-worthy:

What if, instead of your outward appearance, you thought of your “comeback” in terms of showing your daughters that getting older doesn’t mean we have to compromise an active, healthy lifestyle?

That getting older isn’t a jail sentence to ill-health.

Do you want your daughters and your grandchildren to be unhealthy when they get older?

What will motivate them to “break the cycle” and be the change, if you can’t, or won’t, do it?
