Diet - Trying to avoid baked goods (but they keep finding me!)  But, overall I am more disciplined!  Still have tons of Christmas cookies in the house!!!  And my sweet tooth - mostly dark chocolate if I have it!  Eat very little white bread!  Eat very little ice cream!

Mental Approach - still think I have a handle on the mental part go aging!  But, must admit, within the past three years it has been a constant focus!  Most of the issues are the new challenges - first heart issues, then irregular heart beats, skin cancer and now liver issues!  It is VERY important to stay POSITIVE and enjoy life - dates with wife, grandkids, the boys & their wires, etc!!  Golf, trail walking, & Packer Games!!!!
