Start Believing and stop giving up

I strongly believe and know that menopause does not mean you get fat! I do know that eating is not entertainment. Society puts too much emphasis on food and I am so over it!

Does anyone agree?

    Dining is a great familial/social activity but overeating isn't a good thing.

    Why is it called menopause and not womenopause? :) Just kidding around, don't come running with tar, feathers, and pitchforks!

    Food is great tbh. I look at all the rubbish I used to eat and it still tasted good, except now id rather do the eat less and move more becayse I prefer not to have the weight and all that comes with it. Food is still great, be that Pizza, a burger, chocolate, bacon, ice cream....... Do the social thing just be a bit more in control of what you eat.

    Yeah...I am SOOOO done with being fat. There is absolutely no way I am ever falling off this wagon again. In fact I am now driving this wagon. :) So watch out....ex-fat people coming through.

    It does really bug me that everywhere we turn in our society they are always pushing food at us. Refilllable sodas, popcorn. All you can eat chinease food, ribs, etc. Supersize everything. I went to a fast food restaurant and got a salad and they asked me if I wanted cookies with that. When I said no he then asked me if I wanted a chocolate shake. Why on earth would I want cookies or a chocolate shake with my salad? By every checkout stand at the supermarket you have to stand there with your vegetables while waiting in line and stare at a wall of candy and magazines on how to make fabulous deserts.
