73-year-old workout junkie shows off incredible transformation in side-by-side photos



Joan MacDonald is a 73-year-old fitness fanatic, but she didn’t begin her health journey until 2017.
At the time, MacDonald was on medication for high blood pressure and acid reflux. She suffered from edema, painful arthritis, fatigue and had trouble walking down the stairs. That’s when her daughter Michelle had a heart-to-heart with MacDonald and the 70-year decided it was time to workout and make healthier choices.

She looks amazing. Look at the transformation. It just goes to show you that it’s never too late to start exercising and getting in shape.

A while ago I made a thread about buff woman and was surprised at all the people who didn’t think it looked attractive. I think a strong, physically fit body looks fall better than being overweight plus I bet her heart, blood pressure and cholesterol are fabulous.

I doubt it’s the same person-unless she had skin removal surgery.

And other cosmetic surgery plus some high-quality photo shopping.

Why are you always so cynical and disbelieving of anything? You lost a bunch of weight and did a major transformation, maybe she did too.
It looks like the same person to me. Maybe after losing so much weight she did have a bit of a nip & duck. So what! She still looks good.
She looks like the same woman only heavier and nicer looking. She deserves the praise and respect she’s getting. Why downplay all of that?
Do you even like women?

At my last two gyms I saw quite a number of older women who were in phenomenal physical condition. I don't recall one being as muscular as the women in this video, but they definitely looked good and were extremely fit. All of my wife's yoga buddies are remarkably fit and athletic.
I believe the video is an accurate representation of her transformation. I will add that we see this kind of transformation in men fairly frequently and don't think much of it.

You know, some of the fittest people at our gym are older people and they can run circles around most members there including me. There’s one older woman there who can lift more weight than many of the guys and she’s tiny but in really good shape.

People who exercise regularly look far healthier too. They’ve got better blood circulation so have rosy cheeks to boot.

Even yoga 🧘‍♀️ which seems like a simple exercise takes a lot of strength and balance and people who do it regularly are usually in excellent shape. You bet.

Where did I ever say it's not the same woman? Perhaps you're not familiar with photo shopping.
Definition of photoshop
To alter (a digital image) with Photoshop software or other image-editing software especially in a way that distorts reality (as for deliberately deceptive purposes)
That means you can slim areas, add muscle where there isn't & make anyone look however you want them to look. I live in the real world. You're free to live in a world of your own making. Why are you so gullible?

LOL - "Nip and duck."

Nip and duck!!
Hahaha. Quack , quack. 🦆😂

Yeah. I know what photoshopping is but I don’t think they were. We will agree to disagree.
 
Why am I so gullible?
Because consciously viewing the world with Rose coloured glasses makes me a happier person. I am fully aware that I delude myself at times but I’m willing to make those sacrifices.

My mom was usually cynical.
It’s a total buzzkill at times.

I'm impressed that you admit it. Most don't.
But the question "Do you even like women" was unfair.

You will never find one that muscular in person. Can't be photo shopped in person.
