Last summer my DD, DSIL & DGS came to live with me temporarily. I used to finish up DGS uneaten food and succumb to the treat cupboard.
I was going to the gym less as I was also preparing to move (think 30 plus years of clutter )
I started to pile on weight.
They moved out and I moved in with DP in September. He’s very healthy and is a good influence on me. I have stopped any between meal picking and am generally eating far better than I ever have.
But I am now wondering if my weight gain was indeed the end of the menopause rather than the ‘picking’ and this is now me. (I had a hysterectomy years ago so can only go by hot flushes as an indication of the menopause)
Since the end of December I have an even healthier, low calorie diet and have joined the gym.
In the past, these changes would have had an affect, but not now.
Is there any hope for me?!!!!
Please post menopausal gransnetters, give me some hope that I won’t look this ‘matronly’ forever! (no disrespect to past or present matrons! I am actually a nurse ?)
By the way, I refuse to weigh myself as I find myself becoming obsessed. I would rather gauge my weight on how my clothes fit. At at the moment - they don’t
