The weekend and more: 336, 335, 334, 333, 332

I am beyond 30 days into my last year before I turn 50. I have about 11 months to become better or at least the best 50 year old I can be. I've admittedly been lollygagging (is that a word?) As far as health is concerned, I don't have far to go at least this early in the game. I have lots of time. I really need about 18 weeks to transform my physical appearance and physical strength (as opposed to internal strength of character, spirit, etc.). There seems to be nothing that motivates me to get a handle on this. I just organized a conference on aging research and attended a weekend retreat with lots of lectures on the latest and greatest on healthy aging. But I need more than knowledge. I can not approach aging successfully with a diet or exercise routine alone. I need to be in the right mind set and concentrate on behavior change. I'm working on it.
