A 57-YEAR-OLD has revealed that because of her good looks and toned figure, people think she looks 20 years younger.
Susie, who loves flaunting her curves, long legs and toned arms in swimsuits, has shared the secrets she swears by for looking young.
So if you want to slow down the ageing process but aren’t sure where to start, you’ll need to listen up.
Posting on social media, Susie shared a clip of her posing in a black swimsuit.
She said: “This is my 57” as she strutted towards the camera, proudly showing off her slim physique.
She then revealed the secrets she swears by: “Intermittent fasting. Consistent weight training. High protein diet. Supplements and adaptogens.”
She also explained that if you want to tone up, you should “limit caffeine, processed foods, unhealthy fats, gluten, sugar and dairy.”
Intermittent fasting
As reported previously in The Sun, experts have found that limiting meals to a specific time period each day could help you to lose weight.
According to Bupa, “intermittent fasting (IF) is when you go for extended periods of time without eating. This is followed by a period of eating normally”.
There are different forms of intermittent fasting, some of which are more extreme than others – so it is advisable to do your research, and speak to your GP or another healthcare professional before undertaking any diet to lose weight, especially if you have significant weight to lose or other health issues.
Dr Michael Mosley is a huge advocate for intermittent fasting, and has set up a business model that helps people lose weight fast, and safely through intermittent fasting, before slowly transitioning to consuming a healthy, balanced diet.
Weight training
As previously reported by Fabulous, experts have found that weight training turns fat into muscle.
PT and podcaster Laura Hoggins told The Sun: “Strength training gives you a higher percentage of lean muscle mass.
“You can focus your strength training on working specific muscle groups to create a physical definition over time.
“Combining cardio (anything that elevates the heart rate) and weights/resistance training helps to support a strong, fit and healthy body alongside the correct nutrition for your lifestyle and your goals.”
High protein diet
As previously reported by Fabulous, protein is one of three different kinds of macronutrients that is essential for building muscle mass.
Protein is found mostly in animal products although it can also be found in nuts, legumes, beans, peas, eggs, processed soy products and seeds.
Protein is a great way to help stay healthy and remain lean, as it is an important part of a balanced diet, and it helps our bones, hair and nails stay healthy and strong.
Such foods boosts metabolism, meaning you burn calories quicker, which is essential for weight loss.
Supplements and adaptogens
When it comes to supplements, according to the NHS, most people do not need to take vitamin supplements and can get all the vitamins and minerals they need by eating a healthy, balanced diet.
Vitamins and minerals, such as iron, calcium and vitamin C, are essential nutrients that your body needs in small amounts to work properly.
Many people choose to take supplements but taking too much or taking them for too long could be harmful. The Department of Health and Social Care recommends certain supplements for some groups of people who are at risk of deficiency.
When asked what supplements and adaptogens Susie takes, she confirmed: “Vit C,D,K & A, Vit B6 & B12, Magnesium, Calcium, Probiotics, Digestive Enzymes, HCl, Zinc, Shilajit, Turmeric and Omega.
“Adaptogens Black Cohosh, Ginseng, Ashwagandha, Red Clover & Magnolia bark.”
Susie’s TikTok clip, which was shared under the username @sueover50, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly amassed 21,400 views.

One person said: “Looking gorgeous.”
Another added: “You look amazing!”
A third commented: “Impressive!!!!”
Whilst someone else claimed: “You look better than fabulous!! Beautiful.”
At the same time, many TikTok users were stunned at Susie’s age and many took to the comments to share their thoughts.
