Astro,

Where can I buy that. It looks beyond delicious.

Howard,

I'd guess that your metabolism is just slowing down. Exercise will burn off calories and, at least in my case, help speed up your metabolism (I'm 40 with a tricky lower back/hip). I stay away from the treadmill and stick to the elliptical machines. Talk to your doc. The elliptical is low impact so maybe your back will tolerate it. Good luck.
