best foods of all time: spinach, carrots, wild fish (the 3 main are sardines, salmon and mackerel), seeds of all kinds, berries, natural apple vinegar (2 tsps a day will keep our blood smokin and your bowels rippin).

My rule of thumb, is eat something good or don't eat at all, eat all the protein (eggs, meat, fish, dairy products et al) you want but be sure to include other foods with a high fiber content to keep those bowels moving. (beer, hot coffee and tea are great natural laxatives)

tea has not worked for me but coffee and beer have. If I drink tea it seems to dehydrate me, cause excessive urination, which leads to constipation. After all, water is what keeps us regular, water from fruits and vegetables. Tea is not good for me, but coffee does a great job, nice and hot, and strong, I like strong coffee---nothing worse almost than piss-weak coffee----ooooh! no thanks. Gotta be strong and a bit sweet, sometimes with cream heavy, sometimes black, depends my mood.
I found watermelon to be the thing which really lets you take a shit the next morning on time, really cleans you out, especially after you eat a big steak the night before---steak really doesnt move through the bowel too fast, kinda constipates me, so I make sure to crank a good half-watermelon after I eat a big steak. Really pushes it through ya.
I have a fairly large collection of German Beer mugs & Steins i've collected most of my adult life, most are for decoration, but I use some of them (.5 liter mugs) on a daily basis to drink tea and coffee out of. Oddly enough I rarely drink beer out of them.
In the morning like clockwork, I eat breakfast and drink a couple mugs of tea or coffee, followed by a trip to the throne, After that I generally do about 30 to 50 pushups and around 200 situps (crunches) before taking a shower and getting ready for work or my day.
No adult should be eating chicken nuggets, at any time of the day.
Once your body gets used to doing it (even at 65 in July) it's a piece of cake, it just takes a little will power. I usually do 20 to 25 pushups, roll over and do 120 crunches, and then repeat. Typically I do this 4-5 days a week, it's become a habit after I got out of the U.S. military in 1971. Granted, I get lazy some months, but I always fall back to this regimen.
While you can never be what you were in your younger days physically, regular exercise can still help you feel damn good. Mentally you can feel as good or even better, because you don't have to go through a lot of the bullshit that comes with youth and middle age.

goddam inspiring and I thank you for it. Going on 50 and rather fucking depressed lately to be honest.
The best way to work through that shit, is keeping your weight down, exercising and long walks. (a bit of running if you prefer.) I listen to classic rock with headphones when I go for long walks, it gets my mo-jo working.
P.S. don't forget the mega vitamin/mineral supplement and an aspirin.
cheers bro
