i noticed Liz Hurley, Halle Berry and Christie Brinkley all have great figures which i am sure they worked hard for, but for some reason or another, their rib cage is protruding quite prominently?

I don’t really understand the question. Should women over 40 not be fit? Women over 40 come in all shapes and sizes whether or not they employ personal chefs or trainers.

The examples provided are atypical. Most 40+ women don’t model for Sports Illustrated with such a low percentage of body fat. Being that thin isn’t for everyone, neither is being photoshopped or airbrushed. Who knows what these pics have been through before being published?

Anyone whose body fat gets below a certain percentage will have visible ribs, especially if they have difficulty, or lack the desire, to add significant muscle mass. I don't see what age has to do with it. If my skin and body look that well cared for when I get to that age, I certainly won't care what negativity anyone has to spew about it.

An hourglass can happen on women or men of any body fat percentage or age.
One of the most stunning hourglass figures I’ve ever seen was on an obese woman in her 30s.

Also, fuck that ageist shit.
Women can look how they like at any age. And I’d say I have earned the right to look how I want,

I’m dropping fat, muscle will come, eventually, and I’ll never have an hourglass because my skeleton has certain proportions.
I can fake one with voluminous skirts.

I used to go to the gym to fight turning 40. I still go to the gym because I like the way it makes me feel. If I look better because of it, then that's now a bonus. But it's no longer the reason.

One of the physicians caring for me after the accident said it's apparent that I kept myself in shape because this was not usually a situation that one can bounce back so quickly. Then he immediately regretted saying "for someone your age." I laughed at him and said "I know."

I haven't bounced back completely yet, and my sands have shifted a bit in the hourglass, but I'm getting back to it as quickly as I can. Sadly, I'm not in charge of the clock or calendar.

Or, alas, gravity and collagen decline.

I didn't get any hips in the genetic Lottery. I have eaten and squatted my way to having a backside at all. I come from a family of apples and pears and upside down isosceles triangles. When I'm plump I'm an apple, and when I'm lean I'm a triangle. Petticoats for the win.

Another bullshit standard to try and force women to adhere to? I don't fucking think so. I really don't care what other people's bodies are like. It's none of my business, anyway.

I have broad ribs. Off the rack corsets bruise my ribcage. Many off the rack tops don't fit me right. When I'm average to slim in build my ribs show. Not a damn thing I can do about it, either.

How the fuck does someone rib shame Halle Berry?

And why does every attempt at complimentary remarks about one body type seem to end up insulting another body type?

Bodies are good. Enjoy them. Take care of them to the best of your ability. Eat carbs.

I'm tall. Broad shouldered. Narrow waisted. Healthy hips and butt. More sporty/athletic than hour Glass. But if I put on chub I get curvy. So I work at building up muscle and flexibility cuz I like a more androgynous silhoutte. In certain positions *most* ya can see the outline of my ribs. Cuz, well, the rib cage is a big part of your body and covers a heap of important parts.

Another physical defect we have to deal with along with thigh gaps, convex armpits and nostrils!
Thank goodness we have people like the OP to help us keep track.

Should the media be alerted?
Shit, no. They’ll tell the church.

That’s why you have a case of noassitol. Lol.
Ditto here. One third of my history is non Jewish. I got their hair and butt.

hello i don't mean women over 40 should not be fit.

what i was asking was whether it is realistic for women over 40 to have an hourglass figures.

it seems to me Halle, Liz and Christie ribs are protruding quite a bit, that why i was thinking maybe it is not realistic.

i am not being negative, just asking a question.
