[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does this happen to everyone or just some people? And is it independent of activity? I’m 42 and I didn’t know this was around the corner :-( [/quote] I am also 42. It is not independent of activity. Make sure you lift weights and stay generally active (walks, hikes, doing errands on foot etc) and you will be fine. I maintain at about 2400 calories. [/quote] Maybe at 42. Maybe not at 45+. [/quote] +1 I’m 45. I’m petite and have never had any issues with weight until the last 6-8 months, in which I have gained nearly 20 lbs. That was with no changes in diet or physical activity. Bloodwork at annual checkup showed no concerns (in fact, my triglycerides and cholesterol were improved from the prior year), so my PCP’s comment was “welcome to peri”. I’ve been under a lot of work and personal stress, too, so I am sure that doesn’t help. Trying to make changes now, but it already feels like an uphill battle.[/quote]
