Menopause Diet Advice

What is your biggest motivator to lose weight?

I have been yo-yo dieting my entire life. Now that I am 52 years old (and going through menopause) it is even harder. I am 5' 2' tall, and am about 25 pounds overweight. Being short, I look heavier. I need some motivation to lose the weight and keep it off. What works for you?? Any fitness websites that offer postive advice and encouragement would be helpful, also. Thank you, Sue

Hello Sue. My mom also ballooned a bit when she hit menopause and got pretty depressed about it. She stopped eating sugar, and I downloaded an ebook for her with some good solid advice. She's got her weight happily in check again. I still have that book somewhere, I could try emailing it to you. Don;t wanna post my address here, but there's a link to my email on my profile page. Give me a shout if you want the book - it'll definitely do you more good than dieting, which is just rubbish, in my opinion. 25 pounds - what's that in kilos? About 10 or so? Doesn't sound so bad, I'm sure you'll get that off in no time when you know how. When my mom achieved her goal I took her lingerie shopping...she was one happy and proud lady. make sure that you or a loved one spoils you wrotten to celebrate your successes bit by bit, k? Good luck.

HI AGAIN. I CANT REPLY TO YOUR EMAIL TO SEND THE BOOK TO YOU, AND I ALSO CANT REACH YOU THROUGH THE LINK ON YOUR PROFILE PAGE. IT SAYS 'RECIPIENT'S EMAIL NOT CONFIRMED YET'. YOU CAN WRITE ME AGAIN AND ADD IN YOU ACTUAL EMAIL ADDRESS, OR ELSE WAIT UNTIL YAHOO HAS CONFIRMED THE LINK TO YOURS AND THEN SEND ME ANOTHER MAIL. (sorry about the capitals, feels very rude to be 'shouting' like this, but otherwise you might not see that I've added something on )
