Some really good advice

The Importance of Walking
Walking 20 minutes can add to your life. This enables you at 85 years old
to spend an additional 5 months in a nursing home at $7000 per month.
My grandpa started walking five miles a day when he was 60. Now he's 97 years old
and we don't know where he is.
I like long walks, especially when they are taken by people who annoy me.
The only reason I would take up walking is so that I could hear heavy breathing again.
I have to walk early in the morning, before my brain figures out what I'm doing.
I joined a health club last year, spent about $400. Haven't lost a pound. Apparently you have to go there.
Every time I hear the dirty word 'exercise', I wash my mouth out with chocolate.
I do have flabby thighs, but fortunately my stomach covers them.
The advantage of exercising every day is so when you die, they'll say, 'Well, he looks good doesn't he?
If you are going to try cross-country skiing, start with a small country.
I know I got a lot of exercise the last few years,......just getting over the hill.
We all get heavier as we get older, because there's a lot more information in our heads. That's my story and I'm sticking to it
AND
Every time I start thinking too much about how I look, I just find a Happy Hour
and by the time I leave, I look just fine.

The only parts of my exercise plan you left out are the ones to strengthen your hands from gripping the remote so your wife can't take it away and watch a chick flick, and the calories I lose while trying to catch my breath after walking ten feet. Good over all program Philly. Perfect for here in Florida.
