    There is also a group for this, although it isn't particularly active ...

    clsmith, I am also in full blown menopause and had lost a good deal of weight over the past (almost) 2 months. I wasn't even very overweight to begin with. I have had some struggles over the past few years with weight loss and being in menopause but what it boiled down to was that I was not being strict on my tracking and was probably eating more than I should. Used to be I could lose on 1700 calories so when I tried it again, it didn't work.

    How many calories are you eating per day. What his your current weight/height, etc.

    I've been fit my whole life. I turned 50 last year and started to experience very easy weight gain. I haven't changed my diet much. I eat pretty clean. I cheat occasionally. I work out six days a week, yet the weight is continuing to pile on. Does anyone have any advice for how to take off weight during menopause?

    Yes I do...
