A big Stomach at forty poses dangers,

Tweet

Now I am a person who wants to be known as rather intelligent, I do not like making stupid mistakes, I want to be smart, and when I see stories about Alzheimer, I wonder what could prevent this so I read something that if you have a big stomach in your forties, that scared that he!! out of me. Twenty-five years ago, we did not know the danger of trans fat and most people, unless you were rich or lived in the country, or did not use margarine, would have gained weight. Now we are healthier, and yet when one remembers what one ate then. So not only do we have to put up with hardening of the arteries, danger of strokes, but now danger of forgetting who you are, where you were, your family, being reduced to below the level of a child and I do not mean that in a good way. Now had I been a smoker, I could have stopped smoking and my lungs would have repaired itself, but with all that excess fat around the middle at forty? I have not checked my old photographs of twenty-five years ago, but when my mother-in-law was alive and we visited her and I was in her bathroom that had mirrored showers, looking at me scared me. So how many of us who were around twenty-five years ago will wake up one day and not know who we are?
