Reply #20: My grandparents too (born in 1889 & 1886)

[SoCalDem]

they had bacon or ham & eggs for breakfast every day
porkchops, roast beef, steak, meatloaf, chicken etc for "dinner & supper"

meat EVERY meal... and pies...and cookies..and fresh veggies..and mashed potatoes with almost every meal & gravy..

They had no weight problems, but both died young by today's standards..she with leukemia and he with a stroke..

They did not live to be 90-somethings, but they enjoyed their lives and their deaths were not "years-in-the making"..and until their final undoings, I never remember them being ill or taking medicine./.

We could learn from them :).. I see so many people whose whole lives revolove around meds, hospitals & doctors..and I wonder..would I want to live like that?? I keep saying HELL NO!
