I am with you in every respect. But as far as the food and weight gain goes, if you’re ever in the position to consider a cruise, try Regent lines. My friend Sue and Don travel with them annually.

But the gourmet meals are absolutely delicious, varied, and properly portioned for people in their 70s. This weight loss is not through any exercise program on the cruise, purely the excursions they took and type of food served.
