Menopause & Weight Gain

Hi, my name is Maria and I'm a young 56 year old living in Surrey, England. I've been going through the menopause for a few years now... suffering the usual hot flushes, night sweats, itchy skin, brain fog etc. The main reason for my weight loss journey is to feel healthier and to help minimise the symptoms. I, somehow, managed to gain about 65lb but at the beginning of April I started to eat more nutritious food and exercise. Not manic exercises though! I also believe that drinking 8-10 large mugs of skinny decaf lattes a day probably wasn't helping so cut it down to 2 smaller mugs! 🤣
I'm also doing weekly weight loss injections, which really are helping to curb my appetite. I've lost 13.2lb to date.
I'm here looking for inspiration and encouragement to help me continue without faltering. 😍
