The female fat cell and how to out smart it is my project for the next few months. Midlfe brought with it an unexpected struggle with weight. I have always been more on the curvy side and yes I have indeed been one of those women that all I had to do is look at anything fattening and it immediately applied itself to the most unsightly parts of my body.
I always resented it especially since I have been surrounded with very thin women friends for most of my life. ( idon't resent my friends mind you...just that weight seems to glue itself to my body).
That being said, if I put my mind to it...... I have always been successful in losing weight. That is until menopause visited itself upon me. Who knew? Yes I had heard rumors that weight gain was often associated with menopause but I am somewhat embarrassed to admit I thought I would be different.
Now in my own defense the only information I had to fall back on was the evidence that I had lost weight in the past when I put my mind to it.
Well the last couple of years have been a challenge I have yet to overcome. Those extra pounds they reference when "they" speak about menopause seem as determined to stay as I am to get rid of them.
I am using a lot of self coaching and am determined to out smart the damn fat cells.
Please wish me luck.
