Get fit in your 40's and 50's | May, 2010

The Savannah Morning News recently published an article discussing menopause weight gain and offered some tips to help middle-aged women keep the lose weight and keep the weight off during menopause. As women age, estrogen levels decline and testosterone levels increase. When this change occurs, women oftentimes begin noticing symptoms commonly associated with hormonal imbalance, such as hot flashes, night sweats, fatigue, mood swings, and low libido. Still for most women, menopause weight gain remains the most vexing symptom of all. Most women resort to elimination dieting - limiting their intake of carbohydrates, fats, simple sugars, etc. - but diets usually don't last and nutrition isn't the only factor that comes into play.
