Menopause Sucks!

Wow, what a great conversation piece to talk with my peers about the struggles of losing weight, especially after menopause.  So many things change in your body as we continue to grow older, we need to embrace them and work through them.  For instance; bladder, not the same as it use to be, doesn't retain as much fluid as in the past, so what if we have to frequent the bathroom more often!
We could go under the knife to have it repaired but that procedure doesn't always work.  My BFF, CMW (initials to hide her identity:) believe's as we age, our estrogen levels are out of whack and it makes it more difficult to loose weight.  I agree, but working out makes me feel more energetic and healthier, even though the scale doesn't show it!!  Then I come home and have a piece of organic pizza that tastes like ****, put in the refrigerator for my family to eat later, who am i kidding they definitely won't eat it.
   

Welcome to my blog

Hello Peeps,

I am 51 years old, recently retired from teaching High School.  I now have the opportunity to work out on a daily basis, but of course I only go four times a week.  I'm making slow but steady progress, with a body not as limber as years ago.  If it isn't hard enough to work out anyway, it's much harder to lose weight after menopause.  You would think after having children it was hard to lose weight, wait until after menopause.
