I realize I’m finding articles instead of studies, so can’t vouch for the accuracy. But I found this interesting.

Another article stated weight is lost around the hips and gained in the stomach. Maybe that’s why they say overall weight gain is not menopause. However, having more weight around your middle will make you look heavier plus cause more health problems, so I think they are being deceptive on that one.

Is this the same thing.
https://www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...finds-n1276650 I read this the other day and realised that I can't blame weight gain on my "slow" metabolism anymore, but I can blame it on Menopause Really though, I think I just eat too much, especially since lockdown I have gained a stone You all have to excuse me but I am really confused by all this metabolism stuff. |

I recognize though that not everyone has this experience, so I can only speak to my own. *I think the first time I began using MFP, I got too focused on the daily goal or something and it really stressed me out and put me in a "depriving/deprivation" mindset if that makes any sense, so I eventually stopped logging. After a break, I came back to it and ever since then I log everything more like an objective observer. It's hard to explain but I approach it with a different, more neutral mindset now. Anyways, hopefully I haven't broken any forum diet rules but there was an intermittent fasting thread recently so I don't feel too out of bounds speaking generally about watching how much I eat. |

Even the professionals can't agree on things. I have a friend who is a dietician, and she went to a conference. This was a few years back. They had a huge fight over the usefulness of the glycemic index.
Also, it's such an individual issue. I imagine Olympic athletes in the same sport don't always follow the same diet. I always say you have to experiment, just as you do to find the right workout to suit your goals.
