Posted: 12/15/2006 6:50:04 AM | They say it's genetic, thats hard to absorb, seeing some of my sibling have not aged so well. So I have to say it's either you preserve well, with a positive attitude toward every day stresses, eat properly, as well as your state of mind. I say just enjoy it while you have it.
Aging can be fun as well. :) | |

Posted: 12/15/2006 11:53:51 AM | I dont know what I have done that is right, other than living a good life that is relatively within balance.
On the physical side, I try and eat properly, I weigh more than I would like, but I'm working out at the gym regularly, I try and get enought rest. I take vitamins and try and not go to bed without taking my makeup off first.
On the emotional side, I try and live without conflict. Not to say that I dont stand up for myself as I can be a scrapper - however, I pick my battles and try reason over being nuts. I try and treat people how I would like to be treated and believe if we want good friends we must be good friends and if we want great love we must be prepared to give great love.
On the spiritual side, I am not religous and believe there is some type of supreme being and belive that we are all part of our environment and must treat everything around us with respect. I live a simple life with basic morals. I belive that we are all beautiful and must do the best we can with what god gave us. I enjoy getting up in the morning and having a shower, putting on purfume, nice clothes and doing my hair and makeup as it makes me feel beautiful, sexy and very feminine. I conduct myself as a lady and try and enjoy life, and laugh - I love to laugh and I belive that is what keeps me young.
One of the first questions many men ask me - is if the date in my profile is a typo. | |

Posted: 12/20/2006 4:30:06 AM | My mom is 71 with a few strands of gray...still wears a size 8 and has no wrinkles.
She takes long walks and can fight with the best of them.
I hope i turn out like that.
I myself, drink plenty of water, I work-out 4 times a week.
I hate aerobics so I do long distance walking, lift weights, crunches, sidebends and be as happy as humanly possible. I don't do drama on any level, cause me drama and I'm gone. | |

Posted: 12/20/2006 7:34:31 AM | | I agree and am one of those 37 year olds who gets hit on by 23 year olds - I always look around for the girl they're really talking to and then blush when I realise that they are actually hitting on me - weird Mrs Robinson thing I'd like to get out of: Anyway, I smoke sometimes, eat mostly bio (but not always) - drink red wine, stay out late and genetics is out too - (contributor, but my younger brother and sister look older than I do)... HOWEVER I do drink a lot of water (2l daily), never eat junk food and I exercise lightly (hiking and dancing). Actually aside from attitude, I reckon some of the ageing factors are: stress, strenuous exercise, fad dieting (lack of nutrition) and an obsession with beauty (wearing lots of make-up). | |

Posted: 12/20/2006 11:28:05 AM | Genetics and I rarely ever tanned. At this point I am 37 and wrinklefree! My hair isnt dyed at all and there is very few greys in there so far. I dont use creams, foundations or any of that stuff with exception of a cheapo daily exfoliator scrub.
I also contribute it to never being married or having kids. I have had the freedom to giggle insanely, play and generally remain a kid. I do what I want and only when or if I want to. My life has been relatively stress free other than the problems I create for myself!
Yeah. I am getting hit on by the 23 year olds as well. No Mrs. Robinson for me. I am fully aware I am old enough to be their mother. I was carded for being 18 on the weekend. Too bloody funny! | |

Posted: 12/20/2006 1:31:18 PM | | It’s all a matter of perspective. I was dating someone who is 13 years younger (and thinking I looked young). She has a son who is 7. He thought I looked like grandpa. | |

Posted: 12/21/2006 11:04:56 AM | In my 20's I was in the Army. I went to high school in southeast Texas. I'm very athletic and workout 5 days a week (with Thursdays and Sundays, I take a break). I'm still a size 6-7. I still get carded at new places I've never been to before. I moisturize 2 times everyday. I just take care of myself, overall.
I'll be 31 in 3 weeks from Tuesday... | |

Posted: 1/8/2007 8:28:35 PM | No smoking. So sun 'cause I'm a big geek and live in front of a computer. The women in my family do tend to look young.
But mostly...No ex husband or baby's daddy who's sucked the youth and life out of me. | |

Posted: 1/9/2007 9:10:55 PM | Hmmm...I think I look young for my age...and I think I've done everything on the "don't do" list!
I ate like crap when I was young..now I eat pretty healthy. Try writing down everything you eat in a week. Every snack, every stolen french fry! You might be surprised!
I'm an avid surfer...so lots of time in the ocean and sun...I just use sunscreen on my cheeks and ears. I made a habit to NEVER squint! One day I realized that everyone in my family had major eye wrinkles! Freaked me out! lol
I snowboard...so LOTS of wind exposure to my face
I drink coffee daily..BUT I drink lots of water too.
Best piece of advice I got...cut out sugar. I'm talking the nasty processed crap. If you must have Starbucks..and I do...I get sugar free.
This is gonna sound corny, but what the heck, it worked for me! Check out Suzanne Somers "Somersizing" eating suggestions & books. Look at her...damn she is still hot!
My 2 cents...I enjoy life! Don't use hairspray or other crap unless you have to! Totally trashes your hair!! Do you have any idea what most shampoos do to your hair? Google it and you may be surprised!! If you over moistureize, your body will quit producing its own natural moisturizers. Drink LOTS of water. LISTEN to your body!! It will tell you, even scream at you what it needs!! Find things that keep you young at heart. For me its surfing. I am a 24 year old cutie when I surf! Well, at least in my mind. I avoid pills and meds until I really need them. Usually there is a natural antidote for most minor illnesses. The over the counter stuff can kill off good things in you too sometimes! Swim in the ocean, the iodine in it can have benefits...Take deep breaths of mountain air....if you don't expand your lungs, they will deplete!!
Stimulate your mind! Read a book! Here is something that will help you in more ways than I can type here. Read a few pages of a book BUT hold the book upside down. Once it becomes easy, turn the book side ways. If you want to know what this is doing...msg me :) Try it..you know you want to!....HEY I said book! Put your monitor down you dork! lol
Do spontanious things! Break your routine!! Fly a freaking kite this weekend! Play hop skotch, jump rope in the driveway! The best facial masks can be made from simple ingredients in your kitchen! Feel beautiful and it will show...treat yourself to a pedicure or go ahead and get that sexy waxing! Even it it's just you that knows you did it...you'll glow like the goddess you are!...hmm that was more than 2 cents I think! | |

Posted: 1/10/2007 9:21:06 AM | | I get mistaken for mid to late 20s in person quite often and I'm 33...funny cause when I was 15 I was being mistaken for 20 All I can say I did differently than others maybe is not smoking and barely drinking. I never used wrinkle creams or anything, just tried my best to avoid toxins. It's amazing the toll it takes on you... oh and I never wore foundations and other heavy makeup. I found out how bad they were for your skin when I was young and opted out of using it. | |

Posted: 1/10/2007 10:34:50 AM | | Of all the reasons that have been mentioned so far, I would have to say smoking is probably one of the fastest ways to age yourself. My sister is three years younger than me but is always mistaken for the older one. She smokes. My mom's three younger sisters smoke like chimneys...they all look to be about 10+ years older than mom and she is almost 10 years older than her youngest sister. They all have wrinkles and skin that is very dull and dried out. | |
