I don't know about two and three...

I'm hoping that I will both be around in 20 years and able to eat solid food by then.

[-] mjsaber@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 3 minutes ago

I'm thinking about killing myself constantly. I can't imagine I'll ever long for this.

Maybe if I'm dead? But then I won't be longing for anything...

[-] andmonad@lemmy.world 2 points 20 minutes ago

Thanks now I'm depressed

[-] kittenzrulz123@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 6 minutes ago

Im extremely depressed and dysphoric, if this is the peak of my life then ill probably be dead in 20 years

[-] Mandy@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 hour ago

Yeah no. That ain't wholesome.
This is just telling the peasent to enjoy the day they weren't flogged

[-] zaph@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 hour ago

I sure as fuck hope not. My body is already broken and I'm quite miserable where I am. I understand my body will only get worse but if nothing else is going to get better this is the opposite of wholesome.

[-] Drusas@fedia.io 5 points 1 hour ago

Totally with you on this one.

[-] cRazi_man@lemm.ee 19 points 3 hours ago

This is terrible. I wouldn't want to go back 20 years at all. Every year I'm grateful that it has been better than the last. Life is on the up and up. I'm not wishing to go back, I'm looking forward to next year.

[-] lime@feddit.nu 41 points 4 hours ago

this is one of the most depressing things i've ever read

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 18 points 3 hours ago

Well let me help you there, it's not true. I'm happy where I am, and do not wish to go back to my life from 20 years ago. Continue making progress and improving, and you will be content with where you are. It's hard, but it's worth it.

[-] Pilon23@feddit.dk 5 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

I mean.. you're not wrong... But still made me laugh out loud

[-] CluckN@lemmy.world 4 points 4 hours ago

Pshh you’ve never seen my pair of baby shoes

[-] laverabe@lemmy.world 19 points 4 hours ago

One can appreciate the sentiment of the quote to value every minute while you have it, but under a more optimistic lens, the quote is not always true. I was 10x unhealthier 20 years ago than today, and I would give anything to never be there again. We all walk a different path.

[-] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 hours ago

I was physically much more healthy but my life-stress levels were much higher. So glad I'm past that. Now if we can all just do our bit to stop the world sliding into fascism, and of course climate destruction, maybe we'll be able to look back in 20 years.

[-] Droggelbecher@lemmy.world 5 points 3 hours ago

I hope I'm going to be you in the future. I'm in my late 20s and straight up not having a good time, health-wise.

[-] zea_64@lemmy.blahaj.zone 17 points 5 hours ago

If I had read this a year ago it would've been completely false

[-] Rolando@lemmy.world 10 points 4 hours ago

Feelz bad for Rich Webster whose life is on a downward spiral.

[-] tacosanonymous@lemm.ee 9 points 5 hours ago

Weird way of saying every day of existence will get worse.

[-] basmati@lemmus.org 7 points 5 hours ago

Nah, if you peak too early you gotta live with the downfall. I'm planning on being the most healthy in my 50s during the second global climate wars.

Not physically, no. The best time to start getting into shape was yesterday. The second best time is today.

I exercise for the sole purpose of making getting old suck less.

[-] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 hours ago

As an old person, a lot of my aches and pains now come from fitness-activity injuries in my youth. So may I suggest MODERATION. Watch the wear and tear on your tendons and cartilage!

[-] pearsaltchocolatebar@discuss.online 3 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

For sure. People need to know there's a difference between getting into shape, and getting ripped.

When I started my most recent exercise stint, I took my workout program and started with 4 sets of 25 reps at 2.5lb. Once I could do the last set without any sort of struggle, I upped it by 2.5lb.

This has many benefits, such as strengthening supporting muscles, letting your tendons and ligaments slowly get used to moving the weight, and cements in proper form so you don't end up doing cheater reps at higher weight.

It's more difficult than many might expect. For instance, my 10rm on bicep curls is 45lb, but my 25rm is 15lb.

[-] Droggelbecher@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

Some of us can only dream of that, because we have unrelated health issues that prevent us from exercising, and a shitton of other stuff. All we can do is hope that this isn't the healthiest well ever be, because that thought is fucking depressing.

[-] GBU_28@lemm.ee 3 points 4 hours ago

On a single daily water rat and corpse starch wafers? No gains

[-] ignotum@lemmy.world 9 points 5 hours ago

I'll have the time of my life now so i can rub it in the face of future me!

[-] TheImpressiveX@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 hours ago

Not to mention having this exact amount of money in your bank account.

[-] rand_alpha19@moist.catsweat.com 5 points 5 hours ago

Lol, I've had a really bad cold (or something) for a week so, no. I feel like I'm fucking dying.

[-] Asafum@feddit.nl 3 points 5 hours ago

2 out of 3 ain't bad.

I'm assuming they didn't expect the reader to be at work lol

[-] HubertManne@moist.catsweat.com 3 points 5 hours ago

I mean 20 years from now I would put it as 50 years earlier if I had my way.

[-] cheese_greater@lemmy.world 4 points 6 hours ago
[-] Ledivin@lemmy.world 3 points 5 hours ago

I plan on and am on track to be much healthier, but agreed on the rest.

[-] WillFord27@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

Wish I wasn't mentally ill! Makes me feel worse to think about how I feel like shit.
