I love that program. Those women really do look completely different.
Sometimes I think the dental work they do looks very fake, but the hair and makeup is amazing.
Mind you, I have noticed that every single woman they work on is a heavy smoker. You do wonder what they are going to look like in a years time. I'd love them to do a "Ten years Younger - Revisited", like they do with Grand Designs. I bet most of them go back to looking like washed up old slags.
Would definitley be interesting for them to revisit them.
Last nights one was amazing, but it involved plastic surgery, personally I prefer the ones that are all done naturally with new make up, hair cut etc. as I feel this is more insprining for us ordinary women!
I thought the whole point of growing old was that you could do it disgracefully? The older you get, the less people mind - you are now 'eccentric' rather than ridiculous. My grandmother is certainly growing old disgracefully, having a whale of a time - and I want to be just like her.
But seriously, I get your point about ageing gracefully (becoming more refined, perhaps?).
I notice myself having to make certain changes just I'm getting to 'that age'. The shortest skirts are a definite no no, and I wear much less make-up now, otherwise it starts to 'crease' in my wrinkles...
Another few years and I'll back to the floor-length skirts that I always wore til my mid-20's - I had never worn a skirt above knee length or high heels til I got to 30.
Absolutely gob smacked at Lory's mum - she is sooo stunning! I wish I could look like that now!!!

Gok is a genius - what he achieves without any expensive cosmetic surgery or dental work is I think more impressive and helpful to the average person than the sort of thing done on "10 Years younger". That's not to say that the results on "Ten Years younger" are not some times impressive, but it is even more impressive when such transformations are achieved without spending a small fortune and when the confidence of the individual and their self image is so visibly improved. Gok has the ability to make people feel so much more confident about themselves and you feel that he really brings about a lasting transformation in their lives.
I was reading a new book - forget the title. (library book)- about preventing aging at 50+
It said that some folks have a mind set that when they hit thier 50's they expect to age and to get health mobility problems.
GP's buy into this too saying "well it's your age", when it's all about keeping active.
The book said that the worst thing you can do, if you have difficulty getting up and down stairs, is move into a bungalow and take things easy.

Age is a question of mind over matter, if you don't mind, it doesn't matter
Leroy (Satchel) Paige (1906-1982)
Mickey Mouse's girlfriend, Minnie, made her film debut, along with Mickey, in "Steamboat Willie" on November 18, 1928.
That date is recognized as her official birthday.
oh well thats why she looks so good then phew and there was me thinking she was 73 hhehehe
I have to say just like everyone else here lory i am amazed in the bikini she looks mid 50s to me.
Fully clothed she looks no more than 50
I take it she had you when she was almost 50 then
One could discuss for ever the causes, and implications, of Helen Mirren's continuing hotness. You could be all “Russian genes” this, and “No children” that, and “Does this mean old biddies can be sexy?” the other.
But this would be - and you know this, if you consider it for a second - a punch in the face of joy. You don't need to analyse Mirren. You don't need to break her down. One does not analyse Nature's most fabulous outrages. Would you run tests on the cherry blossom of Japan? Catalogue the socio-political ramifications of a sunset? Search out data on a heron knifing into the lake?
When I look at Helen Mirren, thighing her way into the warm sea, I feel a surge in me - a huge, joyous surge, as big as if I were eating a pancake. Fabulous Mirren, I think. Still non-collapsible and fruity. Vibrant in a century of dolorous decay. As cheering as a mongrel in the front seat of a convertible - or a child, twirling in new yellow shoes.
When you look at these pictures, say to yourself, “It is 10.30am on Thursday, July 17, 2008, and I am looking at Helen Mirren's awesome, deathless tits and ass. The world is beautiful.

The secret to a youthful look for both men and women is STRESS
In general happily married, contended people tend to put on weight and let there appearance slip. Then when the S..t hit the fan (Divorce Separation) the pounds fall off them they start to take pride in there appearance. Its natures why of get them ready to attract another mate.
Now I am sure there are exceptions, but this is the Norm. Celebs have lots of Stress and plastic surgery so they are going to look great.
