Due to a combination of the following:
- not just losing a lot of weight, but becoming "fit" and committed to working out and being active
- increased confidence due to exercise
- increased confidence just due to getting older and knowing more who you are, giving less of a shit about what others think (this does not mean being a bitch - it just means knowing what not/not to sweat)
- how you carry yourself matters significantly. Being secure in who you are.
^ This!!!
As a 50 year old man who has committed himself to a lifetime of fitness, nothing is more attractive to me than a fit woman over 30. I have dated women in their 50's who are in better shape than those that are 30.
Because women in their 50's have more time to work out than women in their 30's, if they have kids. Between juggling work and taking care of the kids, it's a lot harder to find time to work out. Once the kids are older (when I hit my 50's), I'll have more time. No, working out is not a priority for me right now. I am slimmish, and my DH still finds me attractive (I'm 45), but I could definitely be a lot more fit.
