Menopause Help

Hi all

I have been struggling for months and months now to lose weight. I am doing everything right - eating healthy and well and masses of exercise especially high intensity. However, I am struggling to shifts the pounds. This, I am sure, is down to the menopause. I have a 'meno belly'!!

Has anyone got any suggestions - food/exercise, that will, eventually, help me lose the pounds!

Thanks.

Yes I only eat 3 meals a day. I mainly eat meat/fish, vegetables, salad, wholemeal pitta, eggs, yoghurt. If I eat potatoes, pasta etc, that's usually at weekends!

I am through the menopause now but some of the problems remain... I do 2 meals a day and close the kitchen at 6 pm. I don't have snacks. And I try to walk at least 6 miles a day. (Inside if it's wet does just as well) I went Alcohol Free at the first lock down and I've now lost almost 2 st. I just found something that works for me and have stuck with it. Hope that helps. 💞 Forgot to say I do full fat but low carb. Never feel hungry. Reading low fat labels made me wary of their sugar content. 🤣

I found this podcast from Dr. Rangan Chatterjee very interesting especially when they talk about the energy budget and exercises.
