[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I disagree - as long as you don’t get too skinny. Take your goal weight from your 20s and 30s and add 5-15lb depending on your height and build. In my 20s, I looked best at 135-140. In my 40s, I look best at 150-160.

I have a co-worker who lost weight in her late 40s. She went from what appears to be a size 12/14 to what looks like a size 6/8. The first time I saw her I didn’t mention anything because I was worried she had cancer and I didn’t want to pry.  She looked so gaunt and haggard and her hair was limp and thin. She has kept the weight off for 6 years and it took 2-3 years for her face to fill in and for her hair to be full and shiny again. [/quote]

This has been my observation of some people. As you said, it’s hard to tell if some people have some disease that prompted the weight loss. For those who i know don’t have disease, I am glad for them. You’re right about the hair in some of these people. That adds to the older look too. does that mean their new eating regime doesn’t involve the right balance of vitamins?[/quote]
