[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For those of you who think you will not gain weight when you hit menopause, I thought the same as many of the responses on here, until it happened to me.  I had always been thin and could easily lose weight, now I eat less and healthy work out 5 days a week including strength  training, running, cycling, etc.   Weight does not budge. Maybe generically some have an advantage, but for the most part, we are all bound to be heavier than in our 20s and 30s and 40s.[/quote]

That is not the case for me. Meno at 52, still weigh 110. Regularly work out 6x a week, plus 2 mile walks daily, mostly WFPB diet of [b]1200 calories[/b], with exceptions for special events. Most people think I'm in my early 40s, not post-50. I've lead a healthy lifestyle since my teens though and non of the women in my family were ever obese.[/quote]

Do you work out in your house? what kind of equipment for you have? What kind of cardio is best for home setting?

You are trading thin for other health issues. At that consistent calorie level, there is no way you are getting enough of micro and macro nutrients. I am astounded that people think being thin is the only thing that will protect them from health issues later in life. And FYI, you probably have to stay so low because you have tanked your metabolism with severe calorie restriction. [/quote]

I really am not trading for anything, I just need a 6 week boost to lose Covid weight. Weight loss food intake is by no means maintenance intake.[/quote]
