[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I instantly gained 15 lbs when I hit menopause. I’m watching what I eat and I exercise, but I’m not willing to starve myself or increase my workouts. As long as my lab work is OK during my annual physicals and I feel well, I think 50-something women just have to accept their new normal. [/quote] You can, but I certainly won't. We call that circling the drain. It's how the end starts.[/quote] The "end" is unavoidable. No need to get fat of course. But if you become a non-eater like my MIL in order to stay very thin because it's your main claim to fame, you may end up never enjoying good food and with osteoporosis. Then realizing that no one cared much about your weight after all. [/quote] Perhaps she should've exercised? I love to eat and make sure I'm moving enough to balance it.[/quote]
