[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When does this happen? How much weight? Was anyone successful in NOT gaining weight? If so what did you do?[/quote] For me it started pretty much immediately after starting actual menopause (not perimenopause). My appetite went through the roof -- I was hungry ALL. THE. TIME. I tried to keep to my usual way of eating, I was still getting the same level of activity, but I was constantly hungry. About a year later I started intermittent fasting and lost the 15 lbs. I had gained, it worked for me for nearly two years. But my appetite got the best of me after two years of following IF very strictly, and during my eating window I was ravenous and eating too much. Regained the weight. Sigh. Off the top of my head I can think of three women my same age who didn't gain weight after menopause....but all three have long-standing eating disorders. [/quote]
