Sophia Loren's Secret to Longevity

Consider this Part Two of my post on How to Lose Weight the Celebrity Way.

I picked up a recent copy of Sly Stallone's magazine, called Sly. Sharon Stone is on the cover. It's the December/January 2006 issue. I have no idea why it's still on the stands in late March.

There's a section in it with photos of hot older women. Older meaning over 40. Since I'm 52, most of them are younger women to me. But no matter.

Sophia Loren, for example, is now 71. What a beautiful woman she still is. She's been in 90 films and is as gorgeous as the first time I saw her on the big screen.

Her secret?

From Sophia herself:

"There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of people you love. When you learn to tap this source, you will truly have defeated age. "

And from the Sly magazine article:

Loren wakes up every morning at 7 a.m., puts on her make-up, and then works-out.

I don't know why she puts on her make-up first, but that's how Sly reported it.

Anyway, note that this babe is 71 and still works-out every morning.

Working-out helps me with my thinking and creativity. I often get breakthrough marketing ideas while in my gym. www.gladiatorgym.com

It doesn't seem to make me any better looking, but I'm no Sophia Loren to begin with, either.

PS - When Nerissa and I were in Italy a couple of years ago, we drove right behind Sophia Loren's villa. We would have stopped to say hey, but I wasn't working-out back then. Next time, Sophia?
