How old do you feel?

How old do you feel? Sometimes I feel like I'm 50, sometimes I feel like I'm 20. But most of the time I feel like I'm 35 (which is how old I am). And my wrinkles are good, at least people know I've laughed alot in my life

moped replied: Interesting because I have been thinking alot about that sort of thing. I feel soooo young, like 27ish, but I am going to be 35 in November. I am having a hard time with that thought. I mean, I don't think I look 35, but I probably do to people - oh I am struggling

C&K*s Mommie replied: Sometimes I feel youthful like late teens to early 20's, vibrant & full of energy.

On other days I feel so out of the loop, and old. No particular age, with that just "aged" because I am out of the loop.

I hope my reply does not offend anyone; I know I am still young but there really is not an age when I think anyone is "old".

mamasbigbaby replied: Oh, god. I alwaysmfeel old....30......i am 25 though.

luvmykids replied:
That is me exactly! It sounds funny but it is truly shocking to me when I'm looking at all these youngins and then I see myself and realize I really am older than they are!

BAC'sMom replied:

I am there with you girl. But those "good days" are getting fewer and far between.

Nina J replied: Jen, you definatly don't look 35. I always thought you were in your early about 25 from your pictures in your signature.

AlexsPajamaMama replied: Well I'm 22 and dont feel very old at all
Looking back at 18 and 19 years old I feel older because alot has changed in those few years, but I dont feel "old"

My nana is 74 1/2 and says she doesnt feel old, until she sees herself in the mirror and sees that her face is more aged than she feels....Nana is a spunky old lady!

moped replied:
Ahhh you make me teary, because I seriously have been struggling with the age thing.

Maddie&EthansMom replied: I feel 25. When I did my body age assessment at the gym, physically I am 27. My 'real' age is 29.

Maddie&EthansMom replied:
Jen you seriously look under 30 to me. And what does age matter? You have GREAT skin and you are so young and vibrant and full of energy. Age is just a number.

moped replied:
Well the flattery will get you guys everywhere....BUT I actually have horrid skin, the only good thing is that it is oily and they say oily skin stay younger looking, but I have serious scarring from PG, that is never going away, I have a nasty pic but I don't think I could post it - it is BAD.........I msut have good makeup for you guys to think that.

luvmykids replied:
I don't think you give yourself enough credit, it can't just be the makeup

But what do you use, just in case it is that good I may have to try it

ashtonsmama replied:
Good question, I guess mostly I feel still like I'm in my early 20's, which isn't quite the case anymore. I feel like I should still be in college...

jcc64 replied: Well, I also have good greasy Italian skin, which will luckily leave me wrinkle free until old age. My granny was 94 when she died, w/o a single wrinkle. Now if I could just get rid of those dark circles under my eyes.
Idk, mentally, sometimes I feel like a 20 yr old, and sometimes I can lose touch with that crazy, spontaneous risk taking behavior that made being young SO MUCH FUN! Physically, I don't have any ailments or health problems, and I feel pretty much the same as when I was younger.

C&K*s Mommie replied:
Ya, do tell please.

And you are very youthful looking! You could honestly have fooled anyone, into believing that your real age is in your mid 20's.

mysweetpeasWil&Wes replied:
That's a good way to look at it! I like that!

I feel my age most days...sometimes a bit older when Wil is acting up or I can't seem to get myself out of bed. Or I feel winded after just walking up a flight of stairs! I also feel a bit older when I see that 80's iron-on t-shirts are considered "vintage" these days!

moped replied: Do you guys seriously want to know what I use...?

So I have spent crazy amounts of money on products for my face, then a freind who had nice skin told me to use the apricot scrub from St. Ives, and it works, now I use the collagen elastin moisturizer. I microdermabrasion once a week and I still have MAJOR scars on my face and get zits all the time.

For makeup I use the mineral miracle from Urban Decay and a bronzer and a blush all over my face - makeup takes 2 seconds................

I am getting temped to show you a terrible pic of my face

Celestrina replied: I have been feeling very old lately. All but one person I work with is at least 10 years younger than I am. There is a spot on my left breast. When I asked the Dr. what it was, he gave me the medical term. When I asked him to put that in layman's terms, he said "an old age spot." My knees crackle when I go up the stairs. When I talked to my neurologist as to why my migrains are coming back (I sometimes get them with AF) he said that before menopause your hormones will fluctuate, regardless when menopause actually starts. I'm 36.

mammag replied: Jen, I thought you were younger than 30 too! I highly doubt it's the makeup only. I bet if you did put the picture up it's not as bad as you think. I know I really really hate pics of myself. I look in the mirror and think I look decent then Chris takes a pic and I can't believe that is actually me....awful! Maybe my face just looks better when it's moving around

Anyway, I feel different ages as well. When I'm alone, with friends, or just out with dh I feel like I'm in my 20's. When I sit back and watch Kristen I feel really old because she is so young and has a whole life ahead of her. I sometimes feel like I've already had my best days which makes me kind of sad....I hope I'm wrong. I definitely feel younger when I'm in better shape. Before I started really working out I was feeling closer to 40....I'm 32.

redchief replied: Before this week I would have said I feel about 30. After this week I feel every one of my 43 years.

C&K*s Mommie replied:

Come on show it, girl! You are beautiful regardless, inside and out!

mamasbigbaby replied: Today must be a bad one, I feel 40.

3xsthefun replied: On good days I feel like I am still 18 or 20. On the bad days I feel about 40 or so.

axross2 replied: 50 easy after running after a 4 yr old almost 2 yr old and a 3 month old (though I don't actually run after the 3mon old) lol

Jackie012007 replied:
I haven't read the rest of the posts yet but OMG Jen you do NOT look 35 at all! I thought you were early to mid 20's until you posted that!!!! You look FABULOUS! Don't fret, girl!


I am 22 and physically feel 22, but mentally I feel closer to 30... never went through a drinking/drugging/partying phase in college, I have always been the mom type among my friends (especially when I was an RA on a freshmen floor) and have always felt mentally older than my age

Bee_Kay replied: I guess it depends on the day LOL!

some days I feel 50.... and other days I can't believe I am over 25
