Why do menopausal women gain weight and have a hard time getting it off during menopause?
Weight gain is another early menopausal symptom, and often the hardest to live with. I wish I could say all weight gain could be blamed on menopause, that would just make the experience a little easier to live with. Only some weight can be blamed on our ever-changing hormones. Many of us over the years have less time to exercise and eat properly, and menopause is unforgiving. You will find it is harder to get back in shape, loose weight and firm up muscles. As a result, it is necessary to make healthy life choices regarding diet and exercise. This weight gain is a wake up call. The hard truth is that during your menopause experience it is and will continue to be more difficult to lose weight. As you gather information and make hormonal, eating and exercise choices, you will start seeing results in your weight loss.
