Thanks Chuck... any tips to make my diving easier as I get older?

Stay in shape! Easier said than done.  I used to be able to drop 5 pounds in a week by just controlling  what I ate. Not any more. It’s a big deal now. So, I weigh myself every day and if I’m inching up I do something right now.  I make an effort to walk every day, 3-5 miles. I’m not a big fan of jogging, walking can do just as much and the chances of injury are much less. Another thing is to keep diving. Like everything, the more you do it the easier it is. Keep a good attitude, there are lots of ups and downs.
I’m lucky, my GF is also 74 and she loves diving as much as  I do. We keep each other going.
Good luck!
