Weight Losing 10 lbs before 50 feels different. You’ve been on Keto, weight point watcher you name it and finally your 10 lbs down. You slide into those size 8 jeans…NOT! The scale says you lost ten, it’s just after 50 you probably lost it in your ankles. 😤
Hair Is that a Hair? OMG 😮 is that an old lady chin hair! WTF….You know the one, the witch with the mole in the scary movies had one on her chin she was usually green. Grab the tweezers and the magnifying mirror ladies. And yes once you pull it two will return…tell your wax girl you need a chin wax too.
Anger Bursts of Anger. Did you just snap in the grocery store line as the young mother let her daughter ram the cart into your ankles? Going from 0 to Bitch mode with no filter seems easier after 50. Things used to not set you off especially kids but now a screaming kid or one with an cart send your blood on boil.
Don’t Stress You tend to realize that life is not worth stressing about the little stuff for it takes care of itself. Its important time to enjoy life in the moment.
Me Me Me You are no longer the center of your children’s world so you have more “ME” time. That’s a good perk, you can suddenly put yourself first. Enrich your mind by taking a class, go for more walks, join a gym or fill your soul in by joining a spiritual group at your local church.
Sex Sex is not dead at 50, it’s amazing. You are more in tune with your wants, tend to have more time alone with your partner, more funds for romantic retreats and it’s not about making babies, it’s about you and your partner. So go for it and be adventurous, this is your time.
50 is fun, fabulous, exciting and all the adjectives you want to give it. What you must give it is the effort it deserves. Surround yourself with people that you enjoy, don’t stress and enjoy yourself. 50 may bring on a few extra lbs in the mid section and a few new wrinkles around the eyes but ….enjoy them, you’ve more than earned them!!
