Thanks Jeff! I will definitely ask MO about bone strengthening meds and whatever else I should be doing to guard against long term effects of ADT. I go for walks everyday, but will start hitting the gym 3 times/week. Both my kids go to the gym so they can show me what to do (I hope)

One thing you may notice soon is that your stomach muscles are giving out and you are getting a belly. Doing a lot of sit-ups can offset that a little.

I try to do 60 or 70 every time I hit the gym. I’ve always been thin, but I’ve got a little bit of a belly because of all these years on ADT.
