Am I really going to die at age 27 like that poster told me on here?!


Question: Am I really going to die at age 27 like that poster told me on here?
I asked a question about how long I will live and whether I will make it to age 30 and put in I am only 24 and already have a variety of health problems such as obesity, high cholesterol, high triglycerides, no exercise and high blood sugars and I also stated that I drink 3 bottles of wine, sweet cocktails or any other alcohol every weekend and one lady said she calculated how long I will live and said I will be approxiamtely 27 years old when I die. She said if I manage to loose some weight I could live a little longer to age 32 or 33 and after that there is a slim to none chance of me still living. She said she knows about this cause she is a professional in age decreasing areas. She also said at 24 I am way too young to have high cholesterol, high triglycerides, high blood sugars and obesity. She said to me to congratulate myself cause my laziness and reluctance to exercise and change my diet has already taken off many years off my life. She also said the alcohol has also probably already taken a good portion off my life. But I am now very scared she said I will be dead at 27 I am now 24 that means I only have 3 years left to live according to this poster what to do? :(

I know you think you understood what you thought you heard me say, I'm just not sure you understand that what I said wasn't what I meant.

Good luck and enjoy.



This is total bull ****. She can't predict when you're going to die based on some charts. Definitely if you started being healthy you'd expand your life longer than 3 years.

However, there is an easy solution: STOP BEING SO UNHEALTHY!!! Three bottles of wine every weekend isn't...totally terrible but it certainly wouldn't hurt to cut down. And my god, exercise. Duh.



Well at least you are pleasuring yourself and having a good time! What good is it to live longer but deny yourself any pleasure, and suffer because you are avoiding all the good things in life? "Look at me, I have a longer life, but each day was hell!"



Get off your ace and start working out and eating a healthy diet of cardio and hard work. When you get your weight and everything else under control, then you can get drunk on the weekends.



Yup. You're going to die. Spend a lot of time masturbating, darling, because that's all you're gonna have until the end.

See its like statistics it does not mean that you are going to definitely die at the age of 27 but you have i high probability of dying at that particular age.
like somone walking to the edge of a cliff blindfolded there is a good chance (logically speaking) that she will fall off, but no guarrantee(i.e she could stop and remove the blindfolds), so even if you do get back to good health there is a chance that you may die from something else (totally unrelated) so take things easy, relax and find a solution for you high blood EVERYTHING issue.

i think my head



Don't believe that especially from a poster. No one exactly when you'll die. Even DOCTORS are wrong sometimes when they tell you things like that. Now it is true all those health problems will eventually shorten your lifespan but it is still impossible to predict precisely. You could die tomorrow,in a week,in two months,or three years like you said but it is all just a guess.

If you don't want to die then you know what you have to do. Start changing your lifestyle. Start eating healthy.Start exercising. You don't have to rush in it but you have to start trying and keep at it.

Alcohol if consumed too much will eventually shorten your lifespan as well but even a alcoholic's life span is around 15-20 years when they start or around the age of 50.

So its up to you now. What do you want to do with your life?


*update - true on the genetics but what works on one person might not work on the other you have to apply this to everyone but see I didn't know your gramps drank that much all i knew was from the info you gave me.

But im saying the problem is being a alcoholic. You will eventually get liver failure. I have never seen a happy alcoholic. Heres a quote and list

"Most active alcoholics do not reach the late stage of alcoholism. As a matter of fact, the life span of the average active alcoholic is 15 to 20 years less than the recovering alcoholic or non-alcoholic."
They usually die from:
Accidents:
· Home
· Job
· Auto
Suicides
Physical Deterioration:
· Brain
· Heart
· Cancer
· Hepatitis
· Pancreatitis
· Cirrhosis of the liver
· Respiratory complications
· Malnutrition

Taken from second link

"Alcoholics Anonymous indicate that the average life span of the alcoholic male is about 55 or 56 years, whereas life of the non-alcoholic male averages 66 or 67 years"

Now I don't believe your an alcoholic but you should cut down
and early death is different from a shorten life span.
Example-Your life span could have been 100yrs old
but you were alcoholic so you 15-20 so your lifespan is around 80
or your life span could have been 80
but you were alcoholic so 60
