The 58-year-old actress, Lisa Whelchel, wishes more acceptance for a middle-aged woman, almost clocking sixty herself; she hopes people will accept what reality says about women’s weight and let nature take its course. “You just get fluffier, and it’s really hard to lose weight, no matter what you do. Unless you want to devote your life to working out four hours a day and eating celery sticks, you’re going to look like a middle-aged woman." She says she doesn’t feel inferior and won’t hide from the fact. Although some actresses and actors devote their life to looking a certain way with personal trainers and personal chefs to achieve their goals, the Collector’s Call host prefers to look more realistic.

She says that has sustained her life all these years in Hollywood. “When I moved to California, God was practically kind of a parent to me. He was my heavenly father. I trusted in the things that He said were good for me, and I knew to look out for the things that I knew weren’t it for me.” She believes her faith and her church community set the foundation of her relationship with God. “It protected me from going down some paths that would have probably been very tempting to go down had I not trusted in God.” Lisa Whelchel Once Kissed the Sexiest Man Alive.
