Life over 50!

Pin It Now!


I have to say that turning 50 has been a really good thing for me! I'm so much happier now...I've lost weight (still 25lbs more lbs to go though) and I have a wonderful man in my life (he took this photo above). Life is good!

I find it so wonderful to see so many women in their fifties looking fabulous. It's so inspiring!  Which is the reason I started my new Fit and Fabulous Over Fifty blog!

Today, I'm so honored that another fabulous 50-something blogger (one of the few bloggers I've actually met in person), Tracey from Notes from a Cottage Industry, has interviewed me on her blog!  I still remember when I first found Tracey's blog...years and years ago! I went back and read every single post! Her writing is so captivating!  I sure wish she lived closer...I know we would be such good friends!
So, stop by Tracey's blog to read more about two over-50 single gals trying to look good at our age!  ...and be prepared to be captivated by her writing!

I'll check it out this afternoon, Cindy when I get back home. You know I think you look amazing but so much of it is your positive attitude too!

Happy to hear you've got a nice soul in your life. Love that top BTW!

You're looking good, Cindy! I'm 50, as well, and have finally been able to lose some weight. I'm down 16 lbs so far and working on getting to 20, then 25lbs or 30! This year is definitely a new starting point in my life as my girls are 18 and 19. So glad you are loving your life!

You look amazing Cindy and you're such an inspiration. I'm only 43 but my husband is only 28 so I want to stay healthy for him when I'm in my 50's!

The interview was really good:)

Congratulations on your new fabulous life over 50. You look beautiful and I'm glad life is being so good to you. Enjoy and live every moment to it's fullest. I was fortunate to be able to retire at age 54. I did so to baby sit my one and only grand child who is 20 months old now. It has been such a blessing. There are benefits to the 50s.

What a wonderful idea for a blog! I'm 52 and would love to have others to identify with. I don't have trouble with my weight but I do have lots of trouble balancing those hormones! :)

Cindy, you look wonderful and I'm always inspired to hear women talk about the wonderful things that lie ahead for us!

Unknown said...

You look wonderful Cindy.. not just wonderful at 50 either! I am 42 and struggled so badly turning 40.. but I so wish I could of felt at 20 like I do now. Getting to a point in your life when you are more comfortable with yourself, feels good :)

Gabrielle Mader said...

well...you have such a great attitude ladies! And realy everything in life is about attitude! Now I disagree with the OC Housewifes..reference...they get a lot of "help" to look the way they do....and I think you guys make a better poster child for Fabulous at Fifty then them. You guys look fantastic Plus do it on a single woman income...which I can't imagine is not easy...Cheers!
