[quote=Anonymous]Almost 51, menopausal, and lost 17 lbs in 9 months. I was always slim until my 40s (BMI around 19) but had put on 15-20 lbs over the past decade through my increasingly sedentary lifestyle, stress, and drinking wine daily with my husband. A lot of wine. I quit drinking last February and started walking or slow jogging most days in August. I eat pretty well and drink lots of water. Fasting makes me crazy, I hate the gym, don’t count calories, weigh myself every few months or so. I love good food and walking in nature. I try not to obsess over counting calories and just try to listen to my body - not my mind. That has helped a lot with portion control and not eating out of boredom or as stress relief. It feels great to reclaim my body after gradually letting myself go for so long. My joints feel better, I sleep more soundly, my mood has improved, I have more energy, and my old clothes fit again - but now they are so old I don’t want to wear them anymore.[/quote]
