[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have always been on the smaller side, but not necessarily skinny. I have always been an athlete. I have some curves, but was always a size 2 or 4 at biggest throughout my adulthood. I hit menopause during the pandemic and put on about 8-10 lbs. (this is a guess based on the periodic doctors appointments--I don't weight myself), which on my 5' 3" frame isn't that noticeable to most, but does not feel great to me. I am disciplined about exercise, running 3.5-4 miles 6 days a week, plus 2 weight sessions and 1 pilates workout. I lack as much discipline with food. I eat mostly healthy but drank too much and got addicted to sweets during the pandemic. While I only drink a glass or two a week now, I still eat sweets and some snacks. But I don't count calories, nor do I want to. I have been fine with maintaining where I am, even though I don't love it. But now, every single person I know who was even remotely overweight is skinny-like really skinny. Even people I barely know but see on Facebook, they're all clearly on Ozempic. It's making me feel large and undisciplined and starting to make me depressed. But I have no desire to take the drugs or count calories--what do I do?! [/quote]
Try low carb or keto for a month. [/quote]
