Anyone going through menopause? I AM & CAN'T LOSE WEIGHT!!

Mel9161

Hi. I'm Mel. I quit smoking almost 5 years ago & gained 20 lbs. I didn't think much of it - thought I'd just lose it easily like I always did but (surprise) I started going through menopause shortly after & now it seems like no matter what I do, I simply cannot lose anything. I've even gained another 10 lbs.!! When I watch what I eat & exercise, I simply gain about 2 lbs. every few months but if I eat "normally", I gain weight immediately.

Is there anyone out there with a similar problem? This is such a lonely & frustrating feeling & it would be wonderful to know that someone is having some success... and if so, please share your story!!!

Thank you.
