Glad this thread came up. Lately it seems no matter what I do, nothing is helping. I have dialed in my eating, changed workouts. Just turned 52 and have seen an increase in my weight and clothing. Everything just seems to get tighter. It is very discouraging because for the first time I can't figure out what to do to help with this.

This is an excerpt from an article about Margaret Richard. I seem to remember the earlier article they talk about but can't find it.
In one of Margaret’s earlier articles she talks openly about Menopause. This is an issue many women are facing and struggling to find answers for. Even Margaret with her beautiful, fit body faced the same difficulties we do. She wrote “I sailed through my thirties and forties brimming with strength, passion, and infinite possibilities. Then, something changed. I began to experience a seismic shift in my body’s shape with my hormones waning and my body fat gaining. My once lean and muscular frame began to morph like a science experiment gone awry. I was in my early fifties and every ounce of my being oozed menopause.” Sound familiar girls? http://www.functionalmedicinecoachin...ill-get-shape/ ~Beth |

This is very normal, unfortunately. I am nearly 53 and still peri...though getting closer, I hope. I gained 20 pounds in two years doing “all the right things”. For me, it was revamping my routine to be more moderate, walking, and eating more whole foods, etc. The other best thing I did was ditching diet drinks...huge difference in how I look and feel.
