Menopause: and weight gain Have you been gaining weight ? Especially around the abdomen
area? You are not alone. Many women going through menopause experience weight gain,
particularly in the abdomen area. It is a very common event
that is brought on by hormonal changes, a decrease in muscle
tissue and the slowing of your metabolism. The good news is
that by rebalancing your hormone
levels, exercising regularly, eating a balanced diet,
drinking enough water and
getting proper rest you can lose that weight! Lessons from the Golden Girls: Even Blanche didn't feel sexy
all the time! Do you remember the episode of Golden Girls when Blanche
thought that she was pregnant but instead turned out to be
going through menopause? She got depressed, went to a psychiatrist
and even binged on cheesecake (their usual.) Blanche sat around crying and moping about how unattractive
she was and how no man would want her now. Eventually, after
Dorothy, Rose and Sofia all told Blanche the benefits of
Menopause (like no periods, no PMS, no binging) -she began
to change her view of menopause. Blanche isn't alone in her feeling of being unattractive
and losing her womanhood since the onset of Menopause. Many
women suffer a loss of confidence and self-esteem around the
time of menopause. Other physical changes (including loss
of libido, vaginal dryness, weight
gain, and facial hair growth
or loss) may also contribute to a loss of confidence and
reduced self-esteem. Lucky you, you can take steps to manage
the symptoms of menopause,
