Aging Hits Fast: Real Talk From the 50+ Crowd

Nobody warns you how quickly aging sneaks up! People on Reddit are spilling the tea about the wildest things that changed faster than expected: suddenly not caring about drama, losing energy overnight, getting senior discounts (without asking!), and realizing your kids are actually middle-aged. The wildest? One day you look in the mirror and barely recognize yourself. Time flies, wrinkles show up, and apparently, 3 a.m. bathroom trips are a thing. Which one surprised you most? #Health #BodyHealth #Aging

I'm questioning if it's worth it

Use it or lose it. Motion is lotion. No joke. I like, 'you don't stop running because you get old, you get old because you stop running'. Mobility exercise (Miranda Esmond-White's Classical Stretch...6 days a week) Quit the booze, eat good food and MOVE that body.

Crepey skin creeped up out of nowhere when I turned 45, and the beginning of that turkey neck crap, literally at 45 it came on at once.

I’m 63 and still run 5 miles 2 or more days per week as well as lift 3 days. I eat a healthy vegetarian diet and take care of what the good Lord gave me. A few wrinkles, who cares!!! I’m enjoying this stage of my life 😁
