Let’s have a little fun today — because sometimes the best way to get the point across is to flip the script.
If you’ve been wondering how to look and feel absolutely terrible in your 40s, here’s my no-fail list:
Consume alcohol. Consume it to excess. Bonus points if it’s nightly.
Load up on sugar and processed foods. Energy crashes and inflammation for days!
Don’t worry about protein. Just eat whatever’s around — muscles are overrated anyway.
Skip the fiber. Who needs a healthy gut or balanced hormones?
Don’t move your body. Exercise is clearly a waste of time.
Stay up late. Sleep is for people who aren’t busy scrolling.
Surround yourself with people who don’t value their health. Their habits will rub off perfectly.
Embrace a negative attitude daily. Nothing says “I feel amazing” like constant complaining.
Ignore stress completely. It’ll sort itself out (spoiler: it won’t).
Don’t work on yourself. Growth is uncomfortable — better to stay stuck.
Now, if you’d prefer to feel strong, clear, and confident instead of tired, foggy, and frustrated — do the opposite.
Fuel your body, move daily, get your sleep, manage your stress, and surround yourself with people who lift you up.
This stage of life doesn’t have to feel like a decline — it can be a powerful reset.
Here’s to thriving, not surviving,
