[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Totally agree with those saying that calories are the problem. You have to track them religiously, not just eyeball them. [b]I just read an article the other day from a doctor that said a typically mid life woman should have 1,200 a day and after menopause 1,000 a day.[/b] That has been my experience as well. There is nothing wrong with apples and bananas but I would agree that you can overdo fruits. I would replace some fruits with vegetables and add more non-animal protein like beans, nuts, etc. [/quote] Please link this article because menopause does not slow your metabolism that much. Most people require fewer calories as they age because they become significantly less active and as a result gradually lose muscle, but these are things that change gradually not overnight the minute you hit 40 as many want to think/blame.
