You could take up the dancing again that you said you were going to do when you stopped going running with us [VBEG]. The brutal fact is that a Forties-style figure goes with a Forties-style diet (alcohol on special occasions only, meat & 2 veg for lunch and dinner, no snacks) and Forties-level of activity (lots of walking to & from the shops because you ain't got a fridge, daily carpet sweeping, digging the allotment u.s.w). Yer pays yer money, yer takes yer choice. If you want the TV, the wine, the snacks, you have to take the figure that comes with it. Modern life sucks sometimes huh.
