HENOPAUSE

I'm still struggling to lose weight, even though it has been over a year since I joined the gym.  Typically I go to the gym three times a week, it is much easier to go to if you have a regular partner (Kelly V. you have been working too many hours, I need you)!

Although it is not easy to lose weight during and after menopause, exercise, a healthy diet, and natural supplements can assist women to lose weight at these times.  My question is; How long does it take to drop a few pounds??

Consume a rich and varied diet. It is important that women who want to lose weight during and after menopause consume at least five potions of fruit and vegetables a day. 
Drinking green tea. This is filled with antioxidants, and water really helps women to feel more energetic. Green tea can also help to cleanse the body and assist women to lose weight during and after menopause.
Exercise regularly. Doing regular moderate exercise is extremely important when trying to lose weight during and after menopause. 
Natural supplements. I take a Multi-vitamin for women over 50, just saying, that number can make weight stay on!!! Very often taking a natural supplement that helps keep the body's systems in balance can assist women who are trying to lose weight during and after menopause. 
Alcohol. Also contains empty calories and sugars that contribute to weight gain. If a woman wishes to replace her calorie laden glass of white wine or pint of cider, a vodka and slim lime tonic is a good alternative. Even in these cases, it is important that alcohol be enjoyed in moderation.  The holidays are right around the corner and you know what that means???  
We can only keep trying!
Love ya, Candy
