How do you log this?
Just curious...when I cycle on high resistance I feel like it's definitely strength training for my legs but also cardio. I can never decide how to log it. I know it doesn't really matter but just wondering where ya'll would put it.
-
Type of weights
Which is better... weight machines or free weights?
-
Nausea
Anyone else have nausea especially in the morning as a symptom?
-
Shampoo
Does anyone know of a good shampoo and/or conditioner for menopausal hair? My hair is falling out!
-
New symptom
My face seems to have a very light peach fuzz....it's not really noticeable except when I use masks....then it's startling...I might bite the bullet and go on hormones because I don't want hair on my face!

Teachers
Any other teachers out there that get in shape every summer just to have the stress and demands of the school year ruin it? I'm trying not to let that happen this year. Feel free to add me to your friend list if you're in the same boat.

Exercises with plantar-fasciitis
I have really bad plantar-fasciitis, so I can only bike, swim, and use the elliptical rn. Does anyone have any ideas for something different that is cardio and can be done while recovering from pf? I'm getting tired of doing the same thing every day. Thanks ☺

Cramps without period?
I haven't had a period since March but for the past week I've been having cramps but no period. Has anyone else had this? I'm also having pms-like anxiety.... It's like all the symptoms without the blood.
-
Visitor today
I've had no periods since August and today it shows up. I really thought I was done so I am disappointed. However I think it explains my massive bloating and irritability for the past few days.
-
Holiday thread
How was everyone's holiday? I ate too much and barely exercised but it's all good. Menopause is still rough but I discovered rooibos tea and it is helpful for the stress and insomnia. Happy new year all!
-
Seriously??
My period just came back and it's only been about two weeks!! Wtf?? I thought it was supposed to come less as I get closer to menopause.
-
Been doing well
So far I've been doing very well keeping it to weekends only. I hope everyone else is doing well too.
-
Insomnia
It's 2:43 and I can't sleep... Second night in a row... I hate this!
-
Anyone still here?
I want to get back to dry Sunday - Thursday... Just seeing if anyone is still at it in this group.
-
Trying again
I really slipped this summer but trying again to give it up... At least during the week.
-
Insomnia
Having anxiety, panic and insomnia... Anyone else up?
-
Not again
2:14 and wide awake with cramps, anxiety and tears!!! Omg what is my problem??? I'm glad I found this group to vent.... Oh and I am bloated too... Ugh
-
Fatty liver
I was wondering if anyone knows if fatty liver is reversible through diet and exercise, and if so how?
-
Worst of both worlds
Pre menopausal and pms at the same time this week... Weight gain, bloating, anxiety, cravings, cramps, etc.... Ugh
-
Thought for the day
I have never woken up and regretted not drinking the night before. I cannot say the same for the opposite.
-
Never satisfied
When my period does not come, I get depressed over impending menopause... But then when it does come, I get irritated that I still have a period. This period was so heavy that now I want menopause!! I hate being in limbo... Wish it would either be regular or stop altogether!
-
Panic attacks and menopause?
Have any of you started getting panic attacks since you started menopausal symptoms? I am getting them suddenly and they are terrible!!
-
Weight loss is so slow
I am working on truly honest logging and exercise.. Still the weight wants to hang on to me... I think it's working... Just soooo slow!! Just needed to vent.
-
Supplements
Has anyone tried estroven or anything else like that? Did it work??
-
Acid indigestion
Does anybody else get heartburn/acid indigestion as a pre menopausal symptom? I have never had it until about a month ago and now it is keeping me up at night... In fact I'm posting this at 230 AM because I can't lie down!
-
My body is betraying me
The weight inexplicably piles on... There has got to be a way besides starvation to lose this weight.
-
first month with no period
Wow - I've been having the pre-menopausal symptoms for about a year or so now but this is actually the first month where I did not have a period. Does it just stop coming so abruptly? For some reason I thought it would be more gradual rather than just stop outright. I hope that means that my hormones will abruptly even out…
-
Hot flash question
Does anyone else like hot flashes? I know it sounds weird, but I think they feel interesting and I kind of like them. I just wish this wasn't inhibiting my weight loss.
-
Itchy feet??
Does anyone else have itchy feet at night? It's bizarre but seems to have started since I started going through menopause.
