How old are you…really?

I’m issuing a challenge.
 
I just took 11 years and 8 months off my REAL age, and I did it sitting down!  It only takes a few minutes to take the RealAge test at www.RealAge.com.  This is the site that was cofounded by Dr. Michael Roizen, one of our keynote speakers.  I couldn’t believe it when my REAL age came up–50.9–I was flabbergasted!   I know I try really hard not to act like I am 61.7.  This made my day!  I challenge YOU to take the test AND report on the ACC Blog.

AAFCS Keynote Speaker’s New Moniker

For those of you who view the Dr. Oz Program on TV, you know he and
Dr. Michael Roizen, our keynote speaker, are best friends and colleagues.
Dr. Roizen is on the show a lot. This past week he was dubbed with a  new moniker:  “The Enforcer.” To look at Dr. Roizen, you will notice he is a man of slight stature, but he does command respect. We are looking forward to hearing Dr. Roizen, chief wellness officer of the Cleveland Clinic, during the third general session on Saturday, June 26, 2010.  Hope you can join us!
