Kirsty Alley looked fat and really dull in 2008But then  she worked on herself and now really looks stunning, beautiful and sexy at sixty. This proves that a healthy and well maintained body can do wonders to your self image.Think about how she got into the fat image before. There can be many reasons.Lack of love and affection, no work or less work, depression, marital breakdown etc are some of the few triggers to losing the interest in body and developing low self esteem. This is usually a vicious cycle. Depression if not diagnosed and treated properly can be one of the commonest factor.

It is important that the right treatment is taken aggressively. Losing weight, diet and exercise all add up to a  good self image. Regular exercise goes a long way to good looks. In older women , loss of youth and lifestyle change can affect the verve or desire to look good. Sometimes partner loss or lack of interest can also be a factor in not looking after one's health and looks.Older women also face health problems like osteoporosis, menopause and it's attendant problems, arthritis, diabetes , hypertension and other medical problems. These also need to be looked after in addition to the general problems associated with older age.The more a woman decides to look after her health, the more overwhelmed she may be if these illnesses require treatment. A more relaxed and holistic approach to a healthy lifestyle and its associated changes is required.

A woman should always think of herself as beautiful. Only then she will work on her body and looks. It is important to follow regular exercise regimens like yoga, Tai Chi, aerobics, gym exercises, walking, running, swimming, sports like tennis, badminton, table tennis , cycling etc in order to keep the fitness level and maintain a healthy weight. Now a days cycling, dance cum exercise routines, advanced personal training are all very helpful to maintain the good looks amongst all age groups.

It has been proved that woman who maintain their looks at a mature age are also more sexually active than women who do not look after their fitness and health.The professional or occupational life is also affected by an unhealthy body.In order to remain more active and socially useful older women should make extra effort to look good and healthy.
