[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m 53 and actually more streamlined in routine than my 20s.

I learned what works.  Having olive skin and taking care of it from a young age helped dramatically.  In my 20s I learned the healthier and smoother your skin the less make-up and crap you need.  I’ve used retin-A since I was 20 and with hats to protect my skin since late 20s.

I have dark hair so I don’t try to be a blonde.  The roots get professionally colored every 5-6 weeks (takes 1 hour).  I get highlights twice a year. I have long thick hair she only need a haircut about every 5-6 months.

I am a former serious athlete abs have always worked out a minimum 1 hour day.  Very easy to fit in n 24 hours.  I get a pedicure every 3 weeks.

My 30-year old nephew’s wife tells anyone that will listen that I look “30 years old”.

I have muscle memory—little extra fat.  I don’t diet but I moderate.  I might have a big Ny strip steak, cocktails and wine on date night but eat less later in the week, etc.  It is all very manageable.

One of the things my husband like about me when we met was my love of food and drink…I wasn’t a “salad only” girl.  We are both healthy eaters and don’t look physically really any different than our 20s, we still beat 20-30 somethings in the gym/exercise class.

It’s tiresome to hear people talk about their routines and deprivations.  Life is short- enjoy it.  Have that slice of cake or glass of wine once in awhile![/quote]

Meat has issues, but fattening isn't one of them. You get fat from french fries and ice cream, not steak or even (bunless) burger patty[/quote]
