[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm 42, 5'3, size 6, lift weights 5 days a week (Peloton classes), my arms and legs look pretty toned. "Normal" diet cook my own meals mostly, probably similar to a Mediterranean diet, I don't go out of my way to avoid fat or sugar. Office job, pretty sedentary, getting about 5k steps a day.

Just in the last 6 months I'm noticing this ballooning out of my midsection. My waist went from 29 to 31 and I'm having a hard time fitting into my pants. I guess it's a combination of holiday-related overeating and middle age body changes?? But it's really throwing me for a loop and I'm feeling really powerless to arrest it.

Is there something I can do 1) immediately feel better, reduce bloat, like you know a juice cleanse type thing (not THAT I know...), 2) forever changes that are sustainable? I appreciate good food and I don't think I can cut sugar entirely or sustain anything drastic like that. Help!! [/quote]
