How you CAN banish that menopause middle
Have you ever turned around and suddenly caught sight of yourself in an unfamiliar mirror or a shop window and wondered who that woman was reflected back at you?
She looks nothing like the way you imagine yourself to look. When did your body change so much? When did you lose your waist? Or gain those inches on your thighs? And what has happened to your upper arms?
Many women in midlife have so much on their plate that they lose sight of their body for several years. They then ‘suddenly’ register the changes, as if their body had transformed overnight. So you go on a diet for a fortnight, but, well, nothing happens.
Well-meaning friends tell you to ‘just eat less and exercise more’, but for some reason it’s stopped being that simple. A two-week diet that got you back in shape in your 20s now achieves a weight loss that barely registers on the scales. Perhaps you lose a fraction of a single pound. What is going on?
Lower levels of DHEA inhibit the build-up of muscle, and since muscle is the best fat-burner we have, that’s another tick in the weight-gaining column. Resistance to the hunger-relating hormone leptin often develops at this time of life, too, which makes you feel constantly hungry. So that’s where your snacking problem might come from. A slow diet is much more likely to reset habits for good and thwart that hormonal weight gain. We deliberately don’t recommend a regimented diet, but argue for long-term dietary changes.
