When I was younger I was quite thin but I always had the discipline to diet and exercise if I found myself gaining weight. Now that I am middle-aged with a family. busy working a lot, and more health issues, I find it hard to follow a healthy lifestyle. Currently, I am exercising by walking and working out at a club with my friends who are stricter with themselves. I am exercising more but I definitely need more diet control if I am to be successful.
