DP. What are you talking about? Unless you’re being sarcastic. This is step 1 in weight loss. Start lowering portion sizes, stop snacking, limit sugars and trans fat meals and only limit meals to 3 times a day, and move your body around daily like going for a mile long walk when you can.

I've never had a weight issue but at menopause (45) I struggled with it. It's really hard emotionally, I sympathize. All of a sudden the diet and exercise routine that's always worked doesn't .
A friend suggested I try HRT and I was put on progesterone, estrogen, and testosterone. That last one surprised me! I knew women had testosterone but I didn't know it would drop during menopause. I also found out I'm anemic, and adding iron has helped me overall a bit but the hormones are key.
It's not a miracle solution but I have more energy, I sleep better, weight has come off... I don't know why I hadn't ever heard much about HRT honestly. It makes such a difference IMO.
